Review summary

Reviewers largely agree the app is a basic, usable text editor but are overwhelmed by ads and reliability issues. The biggest complaint is intrusive advertising that interrupts work, with some users reporting ads persisting after payment to remove them. Several reviews describe data risks—lost or overwritten files and bugs that hurt workflow. Others cite usability problems like SD card access and missing standard keyboard controls. Despite negatives, a few users still praise it as a solid editor and note offline use or suitability for simple tasks and learning HTML on mobile.

Pros

Described by some users as the best text editor they can find.
Gets the job done for basic editing tasks.
Can be used offline.

Cons

Intrusive, aggressive ads (full-screen pop-ups, hard to close) disrupt workflow.
Data loss risk due to bugs/ads, including overwritten files and lack of undo.
Notable reliability and UX concerns with signs of abandonment.
Difficulty accessing or managing files on external storage (e.g., SD card).
Incompatibilities with some keyboards and missing standard keyboard controls on certain devices.

2025-12-13	Az*****	This app has very very very intrusive and deceptive ads that has no close button. It would forcée you to click the ads more than a hundred times. Full screen ad on mobile with no button to close.

2025-12-11	Fa*****	Good App, Needs some Enhancements like when a file is open it should have option like Go to Bottom Line when opening file. Edit: Had already paid, now its asking me to switch to yearly or monthly plan.
