Runestone Text Editor Reviews

This app should be on the frontpage

Higher-kinded sandwich on

Exactly what I needed and without an iOS 5 interface. Great work.

Good app, does what it promises. I would like some spell check support

roelandvbb on

Netherlands

I write non-code texts from time to time, spell check etc. would be a nice addition, make the app even more versatile. If that was introduced i might give 4 or 5 stars.

Lovely app

One of the best text/code editors I’ve tried for iPad. Please consider adding more languages for syntax highlighting. I have to sometimes edit some Visual Basic (.NET/VBScript) and PowerShell code for work, would be great if those could be added.

Missing keyboard Features

Iprenmannens syster on

Netherlands

Im somewhat surprised that a text editor lacks the pretty basic feature PageUp & PageDown Botth Ctrl and Cmd up/down goes to start end of file. Since no iPad keyboards that I know of have native PgUp/Dn this would be a pretty essential feature. Please add and I will rate it higher! I give a plus for suporting move selection by using Opt arrow, but without PgUp/Dn it doesnt matter much since the tool is not practical to use in the first lace.

Easy, straight forward

Nice dark background. Reliable text editor.

Excellent for on the road

Free for simple tasks. I use it on holiday to streamline my website.

No reaction on support requests.

GeVaSta on

Netherlands

Sadly I get no responses on multiple retries on getting answers to a questions. Now I like to know how to exit a edited document without saving it. Impossible to find! Also I like to know how to switch autosave, also impossible to get an answer.

Finally : )

A great little text editor!! Waited for this a long time. Directly bought the premium, although I don’t need the premium feautures. To support the developer.

Best editor on iPad

Tijnksi on

Netherlands

Really feature rich! Definitely recommended. The only things that I miss is setting sync to other devices via iCloud.

Love it
