Huh??

All; I got was a spinout of a list of director contents. Nowhere does it show me an y companies on what files are most current or ANYTHING of value.

Response from developer

Thank you for your comment. What do you mean by „companies“? You’re welcome to contact me on the website and show me some screenshots. I’m confident we’ll find a solution. Thank you for your time.

The Struggles of Document Comparison

I'm unable to compare two documents in Tap files. The process takes several minutes for a 600 KB document but ultimately fails. It's disappointing that the app doesn't meet the expectations outlined in its description.

Response from developer

Thank you for your comment. If you haven’t already done so, please try to compare the files by lines, as it reduces the number of potential differences and time needed to find them. What do you mean with “but ultimately fails” and what are the unmet expectations? I would like to address any remaining issues and, if possible, take a closer look at the compared files, so please consider contacting me on the website. Thank you for your time.

Merging is not as expected

I was hoping that I could accept OR reject changes. However, I can only discard changes. This results in not being able to go through the differences step-by-step, therefore does not allow to iteratively merge the version into one coherent text.

If that could be added (it should be quite easy, as accepting the change is just the opposite of the rejecting logic), I would give 5 stars. Bonuspoints if there is a shortcut for accepting, too :-)

Response from developer

Thank you for your comment. Changes that are not discarded are accepted by default when you export the text from the File menu. Were you perhaps expecting to be able to copy the text directly from the text view? Feel free to contact me through the website to discuss this in more detail. Thank you for your time.

Absolut Empfehlenswert!

Ich empfehle jedem, der viel schreibt und Texte organisieren muss.

Does exactly what it says and it works!

Guess I'm the first to review? Just like developer, I've been looking for a iOS file and folder comparison app. This is the ONLY one that works, and it works well.

File comparison is great. It gives you some different algorithm choices, which is nice for larger files. After the compare, it brings up a nice hex and ascii view, then you can export the differences or use a number of other options.

Folder compare works quickly and highlights the differences using different colors. There's a lot more features than this, which are highlighted on the helpful support webpage.

The Developer may want to consider a free version with ads or limited capabilities, or maybe add "compare" the app title. For me, it was a very cheap investment for something I really needed on my iPad.

If you are looking for an iPhone and iPad native app for comparing Files and/or folders, Patchword is the one to get.

Lifesaver!

I need something quick and easy to compare spreadsheet columns for differences and this did the trick perfectly!

This app made my life so much easier!
