### 3/5 — Presque

*2026-02-06*

On a droits a textedit, mais on a rtf Write, dommage les icones de la nouvelle version sorte de l’ecran sur un iphone 16e

### 3/5 — Not very well programmed

*2026-01-26*

Very frustrating to use. Search for document, open the wrong one and it goes back to the main screen so I have to start the search all over again. Open a document, go away for a few minutes and it returns to the main screen so I have to reopen the document.  Could be so much better programmed.

### 1/5 — Open RTF apps as blank

*2024-04-20*

I’m unclear why every single one of these apps, from any manufacturer, opens RTF apps from a server browsed over an SMB network as blank, but they do, and this one is no improvement on that. Absolutely useless.

### 4/5 — Attn: those working with this 🛃

*2023-09-09*

I am a year plus into owning an iPad Air that became an iOS 12 I got my cousins neighbor an iPad Mini that is a second generation and she will be working with Blurb Inc to produce a creative nonfiction anthology featuring contributors who are able to work with programs akin to this and zWrite then their Android counterparts. I would love to see the creators of these apps work with them on this project. It sets up an interesting perspective if done well enough able to carry a 2000-2400 word range as a minimum word count then the higher range of 4000-6500 range. This works as its counterpart Mac Write on older iOS models.

Not a bad app, just needs someone who is aware of Jarte on Windows OS or Atlantis Nova to give this a much needed respect [right submission call and project to test the app.]

### 3/5 — Access to notes on iCloud?

*2023-06-19*

Tried submitting a question to the company, but it seems to be very difficult to find their website. I downloaded RTF Write because I wanted to take the notes I have on the iCloud and save them as RTF documents on my PC. However, RTF rate does not have access to the notes that are saved on iCloud; access to the area that they saved it. That seems a pretty major drawback

### 1/5 — Love it but…

*2023-03-04, version 1.9.2*

Stopped working on the new IOS. Is there any way to fix this?

### 1/5 — No longer works on cloud

*2023-01-26*

I used this app for years with work documents on the cloud. I would access them with my phone in the field, and with my computer when I got home. It was great. Now with iOS 16.2 when I try to open a file on the cloud, it just crashes. It has become suddenly useless.

### 1/5 — This app is terrible

*2022-12-25*

-There's no save option anywhere.
-The app keeps randomly crashing and kicking me out. Sometimes immediately after I open it.
-App will just randomly undo all of your work on a document. I just lost 30 minutes worth of work after leaving the app for a few minutes, and this is very common. Sometimes
, it'll undo your work after crashing.

### 1/5 — App is DOA on iOS 16

*2022-11-06*

I use this app everyday. Terribly disappointing that it doesn’t work with the new iOS 16.

Please fix this app ASAP!

### 4/5 — What happened???

*2022-09-14*

Worked Great up till iOS 16 came out. Now it launches and everything is the but if I try to select to edit/copy it just blows away. Please fix. I use it all the time.
