Tsuzuri は日本語の文章を書くために設計された執筆ソフトです。 ワープロソフトから過剰な機能を取り除き、文書の同期機能と、ルビや傍点など日本語特有の書式設定機能を付け足して、小説・脚本・論文・各種記事といった文章主体の原稿を執筆しやすい環境を整えました。 ■ プロジェクト単位で書類を管理 Tsuzuri では文書を「プロジェクト」単位で管理できます。 プロジェクトの内容は、他の iPhone・iPad や、Mac・Windows などを含む他の端末と自動的に同期されるため、自宅のパソコンで書き始めた文書をスマートフォンで書き継ぐこともできます。 プロジェクトの中では、章ごと、節ごとなど、文章を細かいシートに分けて管理できるので、ふと思いついたセンテンスから書きはじめたり、後から文章の順序を入れ替えたりと、構造的な試行錯誤を経ながら文書を組み立てられます。 ■ 日本語の見映えを考えた書式設定と表示 Tsuzuri では、ルビ(ふりがな)や傍点(圏点)といった書式に加え、周囲が明朝体であっても強調文字は太字ではなくゴシック体として表示するなど、日本語の文章に求められるきめ細かい表示設定が可能です。 ■ 手になじむ機能と操作性 一時的にどけておきたい書きかけの文章や備考を「メモ」としてマークしたり、後で書き直したい部分にマーカーを引いたりしながら執筆できます。 こうしたメモ類は即座に非表示に切り替えて原稿の見映えを確認できます。 ■ 主な機能 - プロジェクトの作成 - プロジェクトのクラウド同期 - プロジェクト内へのフォルダの作成 - プロジェクト内への文書(シート)の作成 - 文字書式の設定(強調、斜体、傍線、取消線、ルビ、傍点、縦中横) - 段落書式の設定(各種見出し、左寄せ、センタリング、右寄せ、字下げ、箇条書き、連番つき箇条書き) - 区切り記号の入力 - メモ・マーカーの入力 - 本文や見出しのスタイル設定 - 行の折り返し表示(文字数指定可) - ショートハンド記法 - フォルダ内の検索 - ダークモード

About

edEdit

edEdit is a native text editor for Mac and iPhone/iPad that brings notes, Markdown, and source code editing into one app. WHY edEdit • Truly native: AppKit on macOS, SwiftUI on iOS — no web view sluggishness. • Consistent across platforms: your notes and files sync between Mac, iPhone, and iPad via iCloud. • Standard file formats only: everything is .md / .txt / .swift / .json — open elsewhere whenever you want. KEY FEATURES Notes — Apple Notes-style organization, with plain Markdown content: • Hierarchical tags (work/meeting/2026Q1) • iCloud sync across devices • Share from Apple Notes and we'll auto-convert formatting to Markdown — bold, italic, headings, lists, and checklists are preserved. Files — Open and edit any text file on your device: • Pull from the Files app, iCloud Drive, On My iPhone, or any provider • Automatic encoding detection (UTF-8, Big5, Shift-JIS, GB18030, …) • Syntax highlighting for Swift, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Go, Rust, C/C++, Java, HTML, JSON, YAML, Shell, Markdown, and more • Line numbers, light and dark themes • Save edits back to the original location iCloud Drive integration — Automatically creates an "edEdit" folder in iCloud Drive that syncs across all your devices. Dedicated Markdown editing: • Keyboard accessory bar: headings, bold, italic, lists, tasks, quotes, links, images • Hardware keyboard shortcuts: ⌘B (bold) / ⌘I (italic) / ⌘K (link) / ⌘E (code) / ⌘1-6 (headings) • Smart list continuation: pressing Enter in a list line auto-continues; pressing Enter on an empty item exits the list • Paste an image straight from the clipboard — we save it next to the .md file and insert a Markdown reference File compare — Visualize the differences between two files line-by-line, with added/removed/modified highlights. Find in Files — Recursively search a folder you pick, filterable by filename glob. Share & print — Built-in ShareLink, with AirPrint support. WHO IT'S FOR • Developers writing docs, reading logs, editing config files • Writers using Markdown for blog posts and drafts • Anyone who wants their files to stay theirs — no proprietary lock-in • People who switch between editing on Mac and quick capture on iPhone PRIVACY & COMPLIANCE • Notes, files, and images stay on your device or in your own iCloud — our servers never see them • Free tier includes ads served by Google AdMob (shown on app launch and occasionally when closing the note editor) • Upgrade to Pro to remove all ads

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tsuzuri at none against edEdit's 1. Tsuzuri also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). edEdit's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
