I like it but the factor that you have the choice to make a subscription is diabolical

### 5/5 — Reliable and perfect
*2026-08-23, version 2.0.1*
Fills a gap that used to be built into every OS without any of the B-ESS others bring with them. Sturdy, does everything it says, no nonsense. 10/10 💪💪

### 1/5 — Развод
*2026-09-29*

### 1/5 — Cash grab.
*2026-09-19, version 2.0.1*
It just prompts you to pay after making like 3 text files. I’m not paying a subscription just to write text.
### 1/5 — Could be nice
*2026-08-16, version 1.4.34*
No automatic execution? Therefore more safe?(first try). Unusable. Wants money. Way tooo smalll text . Unreadable.
### 1/5 — BRO
*2026-08-12*
Bro tf I can’t use it I am trying to do it and it doesn’t work what the hell it makes me think I will buy it I don’t want to buy the + do you have to to use it? At least make the app paid then, if I can’t use it, also why are we monetising a text editor of all things?
### 1/5 — Obnoxious app
*2026-08-02*
The app asked me to review my experience after making a single minor edit to a file and there was no way to close the pop up without either picking an option or closing the app. Suffice to say that the app was closed and will not be opened again.
### 1/5 — scam
*2026-07-17, version 1.4.34*
substription service for little features

### 5/5 — Perfect
*2026-10-05*
Minimalist note taking app perfect for a on the go notice board to remember things but in fun way you can play with fonts and font colours and the full RTF support just the cherry on cake thanks to all the developers for
creating this beautiful app if I could happily purchase the pro version of this app to check out the excellent features they provide behind a payeall

why doesn’t Apple‘s Files app have a basic Text Editor? You’d have to ask Tim Apple. This app does what it says and does it well.
