User Reviews

Pros
  • Very stable and reliable; rarely crashes.
  • Easy to use after a quick setup; intuitive for basic editing.
  • Rich feature set for a free editor, including undo history, search/replace, and recently opened files.
  • Free to use with no ads and no mandatory paid version.
  • Proven reliability for notes and long-term use.
Cons
  • Printing not supported in the free version or requires upgrading to print.
  • File handling glitches (open-with sometimes shows a blank file, search sometimes fails, won't open files from folders).
  • Tab/indentation button does not work.
  • UI language switching/localization issues.
  • Missing essential features like image import/scaling, font size control, file sorting, and a dedicated note view.

text editor simplified has developed an issue, and it is very very annoying, On occasion it does not dismiss your previous work and remains in the background, it displays an empty page when you reopen the app and then if you're not aware of the title of the page you can introduce new work or copy over everything you were previously working on, previous work does not automatically log out and save, it remains in the background on occasions which can destroy your work. "It has become unstable"
