About
CodePad is a lightweight code viewer and editor for your iPhone and iPad that opens your files directly — not a copy.
Browse to any code or text file (HTML, JSON, Swift, Python, JS, and more), view it instantly, and edit it in place with a single tap. Changes save straight back to the original file, so what you edit is what stays on disk.
• Open files directly from the Files app — no copying, no import step
• Instant syntax-aware viewing for common code and markup files
• One-tap edit mode with clear save/cancel controls
• Saves changes directly to the source file
• Simple, distraction-free interface built for quick edits
CodePad is built for anyone who needs to peek at or tweak a code file on the go — students, developers, and anyone managing text-based files on their iPhone or iPad.

What's New in CodePad!

Tabs. Open several files at once and swipe the title bar to move between them. Editing and colour in one place. Syntax highlighting now lives in the editor, so the file you read is the file you change. Line numbers. The view screen numbers every line, wrapped lines included — and the numbers stay out of anything you copy. Make new files without leaving the app. Opens more. Almost anything that is text, including STEP and VTK. Text keeps clear of the notch and the buttons, with a setting if you would rather use every pixel. And a set of fixes to how files are read and written, including one that could corrupt a file saved in a legacy text encoding.
