User reviews

This is a well designed text editor app with a very good convenient user interface to ChromeOs Files browser, and Google Drive. I have not yet tried features of programming language syntax highlighting, language based refactoring, ..., if any, Fairly new to it. Even though it says for ChromeOs only, it appears to run equally well in ChromiumOs, the open source base of ChromeOS. My testing was in ChromiumOs Please update the description to show that. Need. 1. I do not see an easy way to check the version of the app. How to? 2. There needs to be a disclosure of the security features of this app. Since it has read/write access to ChromeOs files, and Google Drive, what mechanism is provided to prevent abuse of that access? Has Google checked and approved the security of this app? Please provide reference. If I know item 2 is secure, then this would be rated 5 stars.
