## Review summary

Users praise Notepad - Text Editor for coding on the go, easy-to-use interface, and strong organization via per-note TXT files, plus font/color customization and fast handling of large files. However, reliability suffers from paste issues, autosave/data-loss bugs, input/IME glitches, UI persistence problems, and file-detection quirks. These tangibly reduce usefulness for daily typing and note-taking, even as the app remains a strong candidate for code editing and note storage on mobile.

### Pros

- Great for coding on the go (edits to scripts like .sh files)
- Easy to use
- Strong organization: stores each note as a separate TXT file
- Font/style and color customization
- Handles large files quickly (e.g., big HTML files)

### Cons

- Copy/paste not working across apps
- Autosave/save bugs causing data loss
- IME/typing glitches and cursor mapping problems
- UI customization issues (text size cannot be changed; color settings not persistent; line highlight)
- File detection issues (fails to recognize downloaded TXT files)
