Your software is held hostage; you don’t own your apps
IOS is the land of disappointing propriety software built upon a propriety OS that hates to open its gates to third-party software devs who are not greedy — now this is added to that list. This app tries to bait you by allowing the user to edit ONLY a few files before putting everything behind a pay-wall, holding the software hostage until you pay up for the subscription. Don’t be a sucker and say no to anti-consumer practices. Linux is the land of the free, and has Xed, Gedit, Kate, Tea, Vim, ect as simple text editors in its repos for FREE, and you can pay for the software you want — for “this land was made for you and me”. If you want people to pay for your software, just make it 5-10$ up-front before the download, don’t try to hide by having a “upgrade” subscription for a offline app. Subscriptions are for monthly magazines or to access a online service on some-one else’s server, not for simple office software users run on THEIR OWN OS.Show lessMicheal Washboard
Expensive and doesn't save your work
Tried to edit a file on OneDrive. The interface is decent, about as good as the Files app, and it's easy to open a file (once you get past the pressure to subscribe), but when I closed the file you've edited, my edits were gone. File appears unmodified (modification timestamp doesn't change) - it's like I was never there. Then, while trying to refresh the screen and reopen the file, I guess I opened it too many times, so the app will only prompt me to subscribe. I'd prefer a non-subscription price, but can't even get to considering the price when it doesn't save my work.Show lessG-Mo
Not free!
Downloaded because I needed a simple editor to edit some .txt files in iCloud Drive. Thought I’d found the solution. But now, every time I open, it forces me to “claim” my “Free” text edit + upgrade. Which is free for 3 days only then a subscription. I don’t want any of the things the “upgrade” gets me (dark mode, removed ads, etc). I’m find with the free version. But the app is now useless, as I can’t edit ANY document without the “claim your (not) free upgrade” coming up again. There’s no “I don’t want that” choice. App is now useless to me unless I agree to a subscription for upgrade features I don’t want. Uninstalled.Show lessBill1287
