Great editing app

Finding this app easy to use for editing markdown files, has a contents function hidden away, but lacks a viewer to see the end result without the formatting. I use an ancient iPad 2 Mini, so very few choices with viewers like this.
That being said, this app is very functional and useable on my old iPad mini. Recommended this one!

Cool

Leider ohne Updates mehr …

Amazing, Perfect and Full of Surprises

I keep forgetting all that Editorial is capable of. I forgot about the snippet/text expansion capabilities for inserting current date and time, and after spending all day looking for an affordable option on iOS… I realized, Oh right, Editorial does THAT too!!! Amazing!

Excellent editor, unfortunately abandoned

Editorial has, to me, the best text editor interface. Better than iA, iWriter Pro, or One Markdown. The side panels are smoothly togglable with gestures. The outline popover works as it should. And the text style and visual rhythm are spot on.

Alas, it doesn't support iCloud Drive and therefore I cannot use it to edit markdown files synced across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

The app is not updated anymore, abandoned, living in a limbo of unfulfilled glory.

I am so excited

I don’t think I can adequately express my enthusiasm in words. Snippets are already a cool thing in themselves. Snippets with calculated variables are great. Workflows where you can even use Python are simply fantastic.

The fact that it is also a very practical Markdown editor is simply amazing.

I’m still looking for the catch in all this. I’ve probably just sold my soul without even realising it.

Still good!

Not gonna lie, I’d love an update. But this still has features modern apps don’t have.

Good

I use this software to write letters. It works well: however i cannot adjust the margins. How to?

Impressionante

Não esperada nada dele mas botou até o Notion e Obsidian no chinelo. Parabéns aos desenvolvedores.

アプリ内ブラウザー以外便利

iPadOS18になってから内部ブラウザがよくクラッシュします。だいぶ古いブラウザなので表示されないサイトも増えたので新しくして欲しいです。ブログ更新に便利に使っています。

The internal browser crashes often since iPadOS18. It is a very old browser and there are more sites that are not displayed, so I would like a new browser.

Love the features so far

Cant believe I didnt check out this app sooner

It is a very cool editing software.

Editorial solves the problem that Apple Notes does not support Markdown Language. Allows me to copy Microsoft Copilot answers and paste them into Apple Notes to display the correct format by copying the Editorial preview. It is a very productive editing software.

Dead software?

Hey, loved this, but there are dead links in the docs. Looked here, noticed this hasn’t been touched in 4 years. Push out an update that fixes things and I’ll revise

incredible

amazing

Wish there is a True dark mode

Then it’s be perfect

This app *must* endure

March 2024 update: loses a star because, sadly, it does appear to be abandonware 😕

I used Editorial in the past. I just started using it again today, and I had forgotten the ease with which one can create workflows! It is simply indispensable, and I do hope it will never be abandoned by the creator!!

Does not work with iCloud Drive

I'm so bummed. This almost did it. It had what I wanted and it works with my decade old iPad. Like finding a unicorn. BUT I got it to to work with files in my Obsidian folder on iCloud. IT DOES NOT WORK WITH ICLOUD DRIVE! This ONLY works with DropBox and local storage. Drop box login doesn't even work on my old iPad web browser.

Perfectly Designed, Easy to Use

I cannot imagine a more beautiful or well-designed application for working with Markdown files on iOS. Editing, viewing, and exporting documents feels perfectly natural. For mobile devices I can recommend no other editor more highly than I can this one.

The most flixible & powerful editor I have found

Sorry to see this app die. It has been such a huge help for me I wish I could give it six stars. It has performed flawlessly, and though I mainly used it with Markdown on files stored on Dropbox, I was in it almost daily without a single hiccup. That said, it looks like it is no longer maintained, so I am checking out Obsidian. Joplin also appears to be a very capable (and less fiddly) option with good sync. Both are extensible and multi-platform, if like me you are looking for options.

Editorial for work

Covers a lot of ground. I tailor as many of my organization (of info) tasks as I can to Editorial. Nicely behaved. What I can’t do easily I bounce via Dropbox to my main (Linux) machine. Easy because everything’s in plain text. All thumbs up!
