What's New in Neon Vision Editor

1.6.2

September 7, 2026

• Improved saving for external documents, including better protection for unsaved edits when files become unavailable or conflict. • Open text files with unknown extensions or no extension while preserving tabs and Unicode formatting. • Improved detection of external changes to network files on macOS. • Added an option to disable the automatic Welcome Tour. Opening files from Finder now skips the tour, including after updates. • Improved purchase feedback and save-before-close behavior. Documents remain open when a save fails or needs conflict resolution.

User reviews

Perfect!

I can’t thank you enough for making this editor. It’s always been a pain to keep switching between apps, installing and uninstalling in the process of trying to find the right text editor app!

Now I can say, I have found the best one! Thanks!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words! I’m thrilled Neon Vision Editor has made your workflow easier and that you’ve found the right editor. It means a lot to hear this—happy editing!

Amazing app. Feature request

I like that you recently added the ability for us to choose exactly which icons are in the toolbar. However, could you add a feature that allows us to organize the order of these icons?

Could you also add the ability for one to use custom fonts that the user has on their phone? For instance, I have a profile installed for Fira Code, and I would like to use it here.

Thank you! One of the best editors around.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind review and the thoughtful suggestions — I’m really glad you’re enjoying the editor. I’m happy to say that both requested features have since been added: you can now arrange toolbar items in your preferred order, and the editor supports custom fonts installed on your device, including Fira Code. Thank you again for the excellent feedback and encouragement. It genuinely helps shape the app’s development.

It’s FREE! Show some respect

Do people expect the developer to pay them to use the app? Why doesn’t it have 5/5 stars? It’s a great, free app.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words and for supporting the app. I really appreciate it. I’m continuing to improve Neon Vision Editor with every update, and thoughtful feedback like yours genuinely helps keep me going.

Максимально неудобное и забагованное нечто.

Пытался пользоваться несколько раз, надеясь, что с новой версией баги уйдут. Но нет. Приложение регулярно падает и глючит. Удивительно, что такие поделки пропускают в App Store. Хотя потенциал у приложения есть.

Response from developer

Спасибо за ваш отзыв — и мне искренне жаль, что приложение продолжает падать. Понимаю, насколько это неприятно, особенно если вы возвращались к нему после обновлений. В версии 0.8.6, которая сейчас доступна в App Store, было внесено много улучшений стабильности и исправлено несколько сценариев, приводивших к сбоям. Также я продолжаю работать над надёжностью приложения в следующих обновлениях. Если сбои происходят и в версии 0.8.6, пожалуйста, свяжитесь с поддержкой и укажите версию macOS, модель Mac, а также действия или файл, с которым вы работали перед сбоем. Это поможет мне воспроизвести проблему и устранить её причину. Спасибо, что отметили потенциал приложения. Я ценю обратную связь и продолжаю работать над тем, чтобы сделать его надёжнее.

Vibe coded AI slop

Clearly just a vibe coded editor with no real meaningful use. Bugs galore and fails exceptionally basic syntax highlighting. Do yourself a favor and stay away.
