Does what its name implies. Simple tex file editing. (Apple’s iOS 18 Files.app can be annoying with all the Authentication dialogs tho..)

I used to love SimpleEdit. Then updates broke the app. First the curser stated jumping to the bottom of the page. Next, it's now impossible to open any saved SimpleEdit text documents. I have lost work. Its sad what’s happened to this app

This was a perfect text editor until the cursor started jumping to the last line while editing elsewhere. If this is a feature please make it optional. Also link to Support takes you to sign up for linked in (sorry not going to do it).
