SimpleEdit

Just needs a hide keyboard function and it will be perfect. It looks great in dark mode and can be used as a scrolling text feature too. I hope you may add this slightly more advanced feature!

I use a lot of text files in the work that I do. This app is perfect with only one suggestion to include the ability to easily insert the current date and time. The default in the iPad, iPhone system, is to convert text files to a pages format for editing. However, I use a lot of notes in text files because of their small size and most devices open them quickly. I like to use simple text files for a wide variety of tasks then transfer them to my computer for further editing. This app performs that function very well.

Do not use this app! The new revision of this app will not recognize its own files from previous versions- I have lost days of work due to lost data! It makes the files unrecognizable. 😫😤😡 Do not use this app! Plus this new version is importing files that it can’t even load or use; random photos and other app’s files! Also the developer is unreachable- his website linked here goes to LinkedIn and they won’t let you message him! Do not use this app! I will retract this if the bugs are fixed ASAP and I can access my old files- just go back to the original version- it’s better even with its minor bugs! I believe the app revision forces a new app files document to be created, overwriting the old one, which throws out all the old files- the only file I can access was one I accessed from another editing app. Days of work lost! Terrible! 😢

I want to create a new file, but the screen is stuck at the previously created one. There are no self-explanatory ways of solving this ridiculously basic problem. I would give this app negative stars, if I could.

I had the same experience as the previous reviewer. Can open and edit a text file. But then you can't save or open a new file. There's no way to navigate to files within the app. There's nothing available to do but quit the app. What the heckin?

This might have worked in the past but there is now no ‘Done’ button to save your edits.

… then you have to kill the app to edit a different file! There’s no way to exit. Weird.

To get it to work I had to delete and reinstall after updating to V2 but all good after. iPad Air 4, Ios 15.4

What I found lacking is that the font attributes are not saved as part of the file. Any file that you open has the font and size that was last chosen in the settings.

Works flawlessly in creating, opening, editing and saving text files on my iPad and iPhone
