Classic

TomJAMS on

United States

Great app. Does what it says for the price you pay. Like they used to be. Whippersnappers!

Perfect

Satellaview on

United States

The perfect writing app. Big fan of its Dropbox-connection support. Powerful where you need it, simple and elegant everywhere else. All software should be like this.

Over a decade later, still great

Iaian7 on

United States

I first downloaded 1Writer over a decade ago, and still use it on a weekly basis. It keeps everything I write synced to my Nextcloud server via WebDAV and support markdown formatting. Love it. Many thanks to the developer for continuing to support it for so long!

My favorite text editor / notebook

Exjoey on

United States

Probably one of the most useful tools on my iPad and iPhone.

Best writing app I’ve ever used.

Jenn H. on

United States

This app is fantastic. One of its best features is how it will remember where you last left the cursor in a document when you open another. You can swipe out of a draft and come back to it right where you left off. This and being able to organize everything into files has made it one of my most used apps because of how easy it makes writing.

Nextcloud powered notes syncing!

peroty on

United States

I self host Nextcloud and I can use the WebDAV syncing to point at the notes folder on my server. And now I can use the same notes everywhere without relying on a proprietary syncing service or iCloud. This is what I’ve been looking for to pair with Typora for iOS/Mac/Linux notes taking bliss!

A daily driver! Please keep it up!

Bion Howard on

United States

This app is awesome and i use it every day to write rust code and llm prompts on my phone while not at my computer. I love the backtick button, it helps me a lot. here are some ideas to improve the app: 1. Can you please help us benefit from 1Writer on Apple Watch by making complications and a watch app to record on the go? That would be really great for cases where you’re running without your phone and just want to take a quick note. 2. Minor issue: in night mode, the search box text is still dark, so you can’t see what you’re typing in the search box at night. Could you invert the search box text color to white if the night mode is on? 3. (Maybe too hard) How could we connect our GitHub accounts to 1Writer and essentially use this app as an IDE? 4. Can we please please have horizontal lines? They don’t seem to work because the first 2 dashes ligature and then the third dash doesn’t make a markdown hline.

I use it for many years

Great app

This app does markdown editing right

PacificDmitry on

United States

There are million ways to create markdown editor, but only few ways to make it right. This app is one done right.

Does not support Google Drive

Marten Thompson on

United States

The documentation was unclear, and I wanted to save the next person some time: as of now this app is incompatible with files stored in Google Drive. I have Google Drive linked with my local (iOS) file system, and 1Writer even recognizes that directory exists, but it will not access Google Drive. If this behavior changes, I’m sure this app would be perfect for my needs!
