Top Pcmac Reviews

Remains awesome

By Alan Terego (Pcmac user)

Prior to getting this app, I had tried around 30 “mark down-capable, cloud-connected“ iPhone apps to integrate with many notes stored in many folders on dropbox. I first tried Simplenote and some others, I think 2011-ish, because I was unhappy with Evernote‘s lock-in of my text notes, and I had heard Merlin Mann and some other respected tech folks explain plaintext and markdown. Over the years, some apps would work for a while, then not. I switched to this app in 2016 or 2017, and I liked the interface, the favorite folders, and the tag support. After having years of problems with apps not being able to handle dropbox synchronization without bogging down, crashing, duplicating data, etc., I was prepared for this app to eventually fail as well. Good news for me – it did not fail, and the synchronization has been amazingly good – no crashes or duplicates, no need to restart the synchronization all the time. Even if I don’t synchronize for a while, then go back into the app and rubber band to refresh, and then leave the app, when I return, everything is synced up nicely. I have no time to write reviews, but my sense of gratitude for this great app compels me to share the goodness, so there you go :-)
Best app for plain text editing

By Skytouch (Pcmac user)

Last decade I began to separate content from style as a CSS + HTML based website designer. I normally write all content as plain text, then import and style as appropriate for web, print, etc. My file structure is mainly plain text files organized by client and project into folders. this app is ideal for working this way. I can quickly browse and edit cloud-based files on the iPad, then do likewise on the Mac using a standard text editor and Finder. Sync between platforms has been working well for me. I prefer this paradigm to other text editing apps that bundle multiple documents into a single large package. The this app interface is thoughtfully designed, uncluttered and stable. Markup is a welcome bonus at times that I use it.
One of the few left that syncs with Dropbox

By Bluesgreenspurple (Pcmac user)

Thanks for still syncing with Dropbox. Other apps used to synch with third parties but for some reason most are iCloud only. I use an iPhone and a windows laptop so finding apps that work across both is a pain sometimes. this app allows me to write and see my notes on my iPhone while still allowing me to use my windows machine to edit and write as well. Finally the tag support is top notch here and I can navigate/view my tags here in the app and on my laptop so I’m very happy. Thanks to you developers working on this app.
The best out there for IPhone.

By KJAY on the Bay (Pcmac user)

I bought this app the first week it was on the App Store and I’ve been using it almost daily since. It’s got all the features most would want and since it’s release it has been updated almost continually by the Dev. If it doesn’t have a feature you think you might need, wait a month and it probably will. It’s easy to use and has a robust filing system searchable by title, date, sub file, or hashtag. As I said, this is the best text editor currently available for IPhone . Well worth the price.
