User Reviews: Text editor

  • Works well

    The editor works well. The only problem I see is that the cursor do not always position right. Many times when I tap the end of one line the cursor will be on the next line few characters out.
  • Not what I’m looking for.

    If I didn’t do robotics I would have no clue what this app did. When I downloaded it, I thought it would be more like to Grammarly, but it’s not. It’s for writing CODE. Which was purely my mistake. The app ran smoothly and works well, and I would recommend it. The app is just not my type.
  • Very useful!

    My only suggestion would be to improve dark mode by using a dark keyboard (keyboardAppearance) as well.

    Thank you for using PWEditor. I would like to consider the request including whether it is feasible or not.
  • Does not save files to iPhone correctly

    Created file named test.txt. Saved to Files folder. Created 2nd file named testtwo.txt. The app would not save 2nd file. It saved test.txt over and over.
  • Unicode

    This editor transparently substitutes multi character Unicode for straight text. Found this out in a test run trying to enter a simple Hello World program in C, when I typed “Hello World” the double quote characters (which should have been encoded as 0x22) were encoded as 0xe2 0x80 0x9c (left double quote) and 0xe2 0x80 0x9d (right quote), which made GCC choke. This makes this editor worthless to me for entering source code.
  • “No file”

    Displays “No file” and none of the server buttons work.
  • Just noooooooo

    No
  • App password

    So I forgot the password I set but there no way for me to reset it or go back in for the files I’ve saved. I’ve deleted and re download the app but still lock out hope you guys make a feature where this can be undone. It’s really a inconvenience for anyone trying to use this app after forgetting the password. I’ll change my review once this has been fixed o.o

    It corresponds to the function to reset the password of the application lock.
  • Among the better

    Does what I’m looking for. Links to Dropbox and others.
    Can edit textfiles.
    Just miss ability to search for text within a file while editing.

    Thank you for using PWEditor. Word search can be done with the magnifying glass icon on the file edit screen toolbar.
  • Exactly what I was looking for!

    I was looking for a simple ASCII text editor and stumbled on this. It's a very useful and versatile editor that reminds me of the PC programming editors I really liked using. For a very small fee you can make the ads go away, but they're not a big deal . . . Check it out!
