User reviews

Happily, a nice simple text editor for iPad.

I really like what you have made. Here are a few suggestions to help improve user experience

1. When turning the iPad from portrait to landscape, the screen position can jump around quite a bit.

2. When I have a document open and navigate to another app and then back, exiting out of the document sometimes/often jams up. I have to restart the app.

3. Formatting can be a little funky when copying and pasting from other sources. I.e. mainly sizing seems to be inconsistent. I suggest a button for clearing formatting to return text to a default appearance.

4. Maybe you already included this and I did not notice, but a how-to document to address some of the user experience questions I had when first trying out the EZText. For example it took me a bit to wrap my head around page indentation. I still wish there was a way to make indentation more fluid depending on what device one is on, but no biggie. Still Not sue what the orange triangles do.

5. Any intention to include tables? Or is this moving away from what this app is all about?

Thanks for listening.

Glitchy

The app is great because it doesn’t get lag on long docs but it’s so glitchy. You’ll be working in one section of the document, and snap, it just jumps to somewhere else. The search feature is sketchy. It needs some bug fixes.

Great app

This app is brilliant in its appearance and functionality. Primarily, I use it for reading text. Reading text in the default files app is difficult as the font size is too small and there is no way to adjust it. — My only complaint is that despite dismissing the keyboard often leads to unwanted scrolling. If you could add a toggle that would dismiss the keyboard I would be immensely appreciative.

Great tool.

Simple and easy to use.
Easy to switch between rich-text and plain-text.
Preview in two clicks.
Supports basic markdown.
Word count and character count available from the menu.

Wishlist:
Inbuilt markdown reference guide.
• this should be straightforward to implement, and would lift it to 5-stars •

Can’t open/edit rich text created elsewhere

My primary need is an iOS app that can open, view, and edit existing RTFD files in Dropbox and iCloud Drive. This app *cannot* do that. Additional shortcomings: (1) Plain text cannot be converted to rich text; (2) there are no list options—bullets, numbered, dashes, etc.; (3) default text size is huge, 23pt; and (4) there are no tab adjustments—you get what you get. While I understand the app was created to be a simple/basic text editor, its inability to open existing rich text docs—even small ones—makes this no more useful than Dropbox’s built in plain text editor.
