## What is Downward?

Downward is a minimal Markdown editor for iPhone, built for focused writing, simple file browsing and a cleaner way to work with Markdown.

Browse and edit Markdown files stored locally on your device or in iCloud, without locking your writing into a complicated workspace. Downward keeps your files accessible while giving you a calm, customisable editor for notes, drafts, documentation, journals, writing projects and everyday text editing.

The editor is designed to feel simple and quiet. You can work with Markdown syntax visible, or hide formatting characters for a cleaner, more minimal writing experience. This lets you keep the flexibility of Markdown while enjoying an editor that feels closer to a plain, distraction-free writing space.

Key features:

• Browse local files on your device
• Open and edit files stored in iCloud
• Minimal Markdown editing for iPhone
• Tap to toggle tasks
• Long press to quickly copy text from code blocks
• Option to hide Markdown syntax for a cleaner look
• Custom themes to personalise the editor
• Font choices for a writing experience that feels right
• Simple interface designed around focus and readability
• Great for notes, drafts, documentation, journals and plain text workflows

Downward is made for people who like simple tools, portable files and a writing environment that does not get in the way.
