## Review summary

Many reviews praise the app as a simple, compatible basic text editor for iPad, but a strong, recurring theme is a forced paywall with ongoing charges, lockouts after limited use, and intrusive upgrade prompts. Some users report crashes or instability. Customer support issues and disputes over refunds are also common.

### Pros

- Provides a basic text editor for iPad, addressing Apple’s blocking of text documents.
- Compatible with text files created by other apps (e.g., iDOS, Free42).
- Simple, solid interface with no confusion in features.
- Some users report long-term satisfaction and continued use.

### Cons

- Requires ongoing subscription to edit; limited free use and recurring charges.
- App locks or becomes unusable after limited use unless you pay.
- Persistent upgrade pop-ups that cannot be easily closed.
- Billing issues: difficult to contact developer, unwanted charges after cancellation, and refunds problems.
- Cannot access existing files or read old content without upgrading.
