  • Demands and suggestions.

    I use it every day, and it’s used very frequently. It’s quite troublesome to click the ‘X’ in the top left corner every time I want to close a file.

    I suggest adding a shortcut for closing, such as swiping along the screen edge or pulling down to close.
  • Bug

    When using Chinese input, there will be some errors when connecting spelling, candidate status, and clicking delete.

  • Picky about file names

    Would be great, except it refuses to open or create many files based only on the file name. I don’t have the desire or time to constantly rename files before and after editing. A plain-text editor should open any file even if viewing it as character data results in a bunch of gobbledygook being displayed.

    File name extensions are a 40year old relic of DOS. In most other operating systems, before and since, the dot and extension are just arbitrary characters like the first part of the name and mainly used for filtering searches.

    This app fulfills its intended purpose without being overcomplicated. It just works, and feels like something that is part of iOS. Thank you for making this!
  • Simple, Elegant and Effective

    I never write reviews, but I just have for Subtext. To borrow a familiar phrase, this app “Just Works”. It is simple, easy to use, and everything works the way it should. I love that it integrates with my Dropbox files to on my iPhone and iPad. My thanks to the developer.
