Really great one
Beautifully designed UI. Simple and easy to use. Get my regular expression things done in just a few seconds.
Where is the app and my files? All hidden files!! :(
I was really enjoying this app until I went to backup my Regex files I’ve created in it. The iPad’s Files app cannot find the app or my Regex files. Why make them hidden?! The export option makes a mess of them. If you select Export All you get a file that’s not html but is full of HTML codes and everything is in quotes. If I can’t backup my Regex expressions to iCloud, then the app is not saving me any time. Please make your app visible! AND all of my Regex files I’ve created in your app. I shouldn’t have to buy a Shell to go on an Easter Egg Hunt to find my work. Geesh!! :((

Response from developer
Thanks for your review and feedback. By default the data of the app (when a developer makes an app) is private, in fact it never creates typical "files" the way we usually think about these, and it is why it is not so easy to expose in the File manager or iCloud sync. That said, I completely agree that this app seems like a perfect candidate to integrate with standard "document editing" flows, cloud sync etc. I'll add it to the ToDo list for a future version release. Regarding the export/import feature - did it not work correctly for you? I would like to understand and fix this, message me on regexlab@sovio.co
Useful offline Regex tool
I wanted an offline Regexbuddy type of app on my iPad and RegEx Lab is a good option. It only supports the ICU Unicode flavor of Regex, at the moment. It’s been years since I retired and did any coding. This tool is helping me get back up to speed on Regex. Thanks for making this app!
**Essential** text tool for devs and writers
I use this every day. The **best** tool for developing and debugging scripts in Shortcuts, Scriptable, Pythonista and other automation apps. Excellent UI and workflow, simple to use yet comprehensive and powerful.
I Love It - That is All
