### 5/5 — I’m not going anywhere anywhere I have

*2023-06-24*

I will be in touch with you later tonight if

### 2/5 — Can’t be purchased and has no support

*2023-06-21*

I downloaded this app, and it looks as tho it would do everything I need in an editor. Problem is; when you attempt to do much of anything, it says it’s only available in the full version and offers a pop up with a solid blue button that should allow you to make the purchase. But does nothing when attempting to push it. I’ve attempted to notify Apple and the developer. But the link to the developer’s website for support, is only a page that simply says "QuickText support". That’s all that’s there. Just the text. No support.
In the end; it’s just a crippled editor, with no means of upgrade, or support.
Very disappointed. ☹️

### 4/5 — Just a few updates from my

*2023-06-20*

I have a lot of going back

### 1/5 — Can’t unlock Pro after paying for it

*2022-12-11, version 2.6.1*

Still can’t edit documents more than 10 times after paying for pro version.

### 1/5 — No way to undo

*2022-12-08, version 2.6.1*

Type over something by accident? You’re screwed. No undo function. Without them the app is no more useful than Apple’s “Notes.”  I purchased this for an iPhone 12x Pro Max, iOS 16.1. Oh, go ahead and hit the “Support” button and see what you get. A blank web page. I’d highly suggest not wasting a penny on this app.

### 5/5 — 5star

*2022-11-06, version 2.6.1*

good

### 4/5 — Lets me open text files with unknown extensions

*2022-10-24, version 2.6.1*

Other popular plaintext editors don't let me open files with extensions like .sql for instance.

I would wish for a way to disable line wrapping though. I've just contacted the dev about it.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I wanted

*2022-10-12, version 2.6.1*

Very happy with this app. It does everything I want with nothing extra to get in the way of the writing process.
Developer very responsive to an inquiry.
Thanks!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2022-07-01, version 2.5.3*

I paid for the full version, but I get an error message whenever I try to open a document not created in the app.

This app serves me absolutely no purpose and was a waste of money.

Buyer beware!!!

### 5/5 — I love this!

*2022-06-29, version 2.5.3*

The app is small in file size, and integrates smoothly into iCloud. It is a straight forward text editor.
