A native plain text editor for iOS. No accounts, no bloat, just text. **WHY NOTES ISN'T ENOUGH** Apple's Notes is rich text. It can't open or write actual plain text files. If you need to edit a .txt, .md, or .json from your Files app, Notes won't open it. **THE SOLUTION** SimpleTextEdit opens any plain text file from Files (iCloud, On My iPhone, third-party providers), edits it, and saves it back. One tap to prettify JSON. One tap to paste from or copy to the clipboard. Simple. Fast. Native. 39 languages.
