What's New in Wander

1.16

September 1, 2026

Notes kept in iCloud that are not on this device yet now say they are downloading, instead of showing a frozen screen while they wait. If a download cannot finish, it says that too. Creating, renaming, deleting and duplicating update the screen you are looking at. They always changed the file on disk; the browser often kept showing the old name or the deleted row, so a rename looked like it had done nothing. Also in this release: - Long-press a file or folder in the browser for the same actions the sidebar offers, and swipe to rename or delete. - New Folder scrolls to the folder it just made and selects it. - In landscape, text no longer runs under the notch. - The Files browser can be closed again — "New Document…" and "Open a Single File…" now have a Cancel. - Appearance settings work when you opened a single file rather than a vault. - The star action is called Add to Favorites everywhere. - File rows are easier to read: the date and first line under each name are darker. - Edit a typst document right on its typeset page. It lives under Features in Settings.

Just right for my writing needs

I’ve bounced around lots of apps - Scrivener, Ulysses, ia Writer, Bear, others. I just wanted something that works, does not store my files in a propriety format. Of all of them, I’m hooked on the ‘just works’ that Wanders offers.

use it daily

use it daily now for all my wiring on mac and ios

Great potential

In fairness maybe only a 3 star app so far. Feature set warrants 5 stars but execution is flawed. Features don’t yet fully work. MD rendering could be better. Hope the developers keep working on it. Can’t beat the price, but really usable rn

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for leaving feedback. Working on the app everyday and have several releases per week, so hopefully all those bugs will be fixed and app will become more polished.

Amazing app. Feature request

Could add a customizable theme option? This is the best markdown editor (feature wise) that I have come across. Thanks

Response from developer

coming in the next few releases! thank you for your kind words and also taking time to provide feedback and request features.

Perfekt für Devs

Macht was es soll! Ist jetzt mein Hauptmarkdown App :)


Verbessungsvorschläge:
- flowcharts nicht scrollable machen
- bei allen Views den Editmodus deaktivieren können
- MBytes coloring selbst gestalten?

Response from developer

Danke für die Review! Zwei deiner drei Wünsche kann ich direkt beantworten: Flowcharts ohne Scrollen gibt es schon: in den Einstellungen unter Appearance "Diagram Canvas" ausschalten, dann wachsen Diagramme einfach mit der Seite. Und eigene Farben kommen im nächsten Update: Hintergrund und Textfarbe frei wählbar, getrennt für Hell und Dunkel, dazu sieben Schriften. Einen Lesemodus für alle Ansichten nehme ich als Wunsch auf. Danke, dass wander deine Haupt-App ist!
