Great native OneDrive integration

I use this for editing markdown files that Claude maintains in OneDrive since Microsoft does not natively support editing non-office docs in the OneDrive client.

Полезно

Полезное приложение, ни разу не пожалел что купил. Много разного функционала, неплохой редактор кода, возможность запуска html страниц с подгрузкой файлов, ssh клиент с предустановленными скриптами и т.д. Вообщем рекомендую.

tailscaleを通したsftpが使えない

この一点で残念ながら全く使えません。課金の価値なし。

Wish I could give it a 5

If you’re an old-school text editing coder, this app is a great bridge between touch screen and raw text editing. It will also integrate with several cloud storage solutions, so you can use any storage you already use.

The only problem is: it doesn’t remember your preferences across updates (like every other app on the planet does). A simple, but important detail that is the reason I can’t give it a 5/5.

My workaround: I have a note in the Notes app where I keep track of whatever settings I change in this app. Otherwise it would be like reinventing the wheel every time this app (or the OS) updates. But this shouldn’t be necessary. The app should remember settings across updates.

It seems like it should also be able to remember your last position in a file, and take you there instead of the top of the file every time you re-open a file. A setting for “top, bottom, previous” location on open would be nice.

My other (less important) feature request would be that if you’re using an external keyboard, being able to set VI or Emacs key bindings would be a bit awesome. (I’m an old vi / vim user)

Thank you for your review! The latest update fixes the settings storage bug, although your issue was difficult to reproduce. If the problem persists, please don’t hesitate to contact me at develop@gogolith.de. Thanks again for your feedback!

Awesome

This is so useful. Stop working with Google Drive recently though. Is there someway around this?

Finally! I’ve struck gold with this!

My teams workflow, we do everything on the server… I know, I know, git commit push pull… Not in a wordpress shop. This is fantastic for loading up all of your SFTP client server accounts for easy access and simple editing of their style.css or functions.php. The addition of our standard color themes for the IDE is nice to make it universal feel to set your VSCode or Nova/Panic IDE similarly. I’m so excited about this I’m probably not even making sense. This is it. I’ve purchased all of the expensive guys, Txtastic, Co da, all of them, this is worth every penny.

Fantastic product

Needed something to quickly edit some files on my home server from my iPad. Took a chance on this app, and did not regret it. It’s simple, useful (brings me right to my last connection upon launch), and beautiful.

Thank you.

A nearly perfect editor

Easy the best code editor for iOS. The sidebar design and easy access to files/folders puts it above all others.

Fast perfekt

Hallo, ich finde die App super. Sie hält, was sie verspricht und funktioniert flüssig. Manchmal gibt es ein paar Probleme, die mich etwas stören. Darunter, das der Cursor immer wieder mal an den Anfang eines Tag’s springt oder das wenn ich eine weitere App im Slideover geöffnet habe, ein schwarzer Balken über den Bildschirm zieht. Ich nehme an, dass das so ein Nebeneffekt vom Laden ist. Schlimm wird es erst dann, wenn sich Dateien nicht mehr in den externen Browsern wie Safari, Firefox oder Chrome öffnen lassen. Da ich nicht weiß, auf welchem Browser der Interne-Browser basiert, kann ich auch keine Tests für Fehler durchführen, die zum Beispiel in Firefox auftreten würden. Ansonsten alles in allem, eine richtig tolle App! Als

Edit .hidden files

Beside being a great code editor, it also surfaces hidden dot files and folders.

Great app, unique look but somehow annoying

I pretty much happy with the app, but there is annoyance.

If you enable FaceID it works only once, when you get back to the app you have to enter password every time.

I sent multiple emails to the app support but they are successfully ignored. Thats why I can’t give it 5 stars, and when they fix it I’ll come back to change my review and set 5 stars back.

Amazing Editor - Dedicated long time user - Please Improve iOS reliability

I’ve been using GoCoEdit for many years and it’s completely transformed the way I develop.

Recently, it’s become much less reliable when using SFTP, and crashed frequently.

I’m not sure if this is because my repository has become large, or if it’s because of GoCoEdit.

Response from developer

Hi Taylorcode, help me to reproduce your issues. Please, contact me on email (develop@gogolith.de).

super editor!

upd: endlich kann man das Verhalten des Cursors beeinflussen, super!!!

alt:
wenn ich den Cursor mittels touch platzieren möchte, ist die Position meistens genau richtig, aber eine halbe Sekunde später hüpft der Cursor ans Wortende. Kann man das irgendwie abschalten? Ich habe da leider nichts zu gefunden. Das standardmässige einfügen klappt leider auch erst nach mehreren malen und cmd+v ist ja cool, aber benötigt auch 2 clicks. Ansonsten top!

Response from developer

ja das geht, unter settings (zahnrad icon) kann man die option „set cursor to word-end“ abschalten. vielen Dank!

Even better if it had vim bindings and a shortcut for ESC

A nice little editor, not the prettiest, but it works well and has most of the functionality I need. It syncs well with DropBox and reloads when the file changes. A lot of other editors with access to DropBox don’t. I mainly use it for coding and latex. Apart from having to forego vim bindings, it’s a great editor for when I’m on my iPad.

Супер!!!

Сначала пожалел потраченные деньги, но разобравшись понял, что все даже лучше чем ожидал. Работаю с удалённым сервером, никаких проблем с подключением и редактированием файлов. При открытии редактируемого файла в браузере в ссылку добавлялась корневая папка, что приводило к ошибке, но оказалось, что ссылку для открытия каждого файла можно редактировать и все работает! Не ожидал такого!!! Огромное спасибо разработчику!!!!

Can't access Dropbox

When I connect to Dropbox, not all the text files in my directories are listed, so I can't edit them with this editor. I've contacted the developer, but this defect remains. I re-downloaded the app because it claims an updated Dropbox interface this revision, but there's been no change.

Two stars because I really like the editor for the files I *can* access, but until I can access *all* files in a Dropbox directory, it's useless.

Poor Dropbox integration

Only see a small subset of my Dropbox folders. Can’t navigate to the folder with my code.

Why is the basic print function missing?

Update: Developer finally responded, so changing to three stars. If printing is enabled, I'll increase to 5 stars.

Developer said it's not that easy to implement, but as a former developer, it seems like it should just be a call to existing IOS routines; not completely having to write new code?

Anyway, I appreciate finally getting a response, and look forward to that function.

Overall, I think GoCoEdit is a well-written, and very functional text editor. I was excited when I purchased it, because it had a look and feel the professional editors that I used during my programming career. I am only giving it three stars because it seems to be missing the basic IOS print capability, which I believe should just be a call to existing iPhone/iPad code? Many times, if I have gone to the trouble to format a special list or document, I may want a printed copy. I can't do this. If I try to take the GoCoEdit formatted text, and copy/paste it into another app that WILL print, invariably, the formatting of the text does not port properly to the other app, so my document becomes skewed. I really don't understand why print capability is missing? The developer listed and email address for questions, comments, or suggestions. I have sent an email to that address two or three times, just to ask 1) if I was just not seeing the print method, or 2) if he could consider adding that function. Sadly, I have never even gotten an acknowledgment of my email or question. I also suggested one other addition (that is available in PC packages such as UltraEdit), and that is the 'block' move or edit function. Especially when creating/reformatting complex lists or code, I always found the 'block editing' function to be invaluable. Again, I believe the PRINT function 'should' be a fairly simple call to available IOS code? If this was fixed, I would easily give this 5 stars, instead of one.

Can’t open 4MB log file

App complains a 4MB log file is too large to open…
