リッチテキスト形式に興味がなく、もし年に一度くらいマークダウン処理するにしても別エディタで作業するから、シンプルofシンプルな「ザ・エディタ」をくれよ! という私のためにある様なテキストエディタです。 使用感はほぼWriteroomです。マジ最高。 ただし、ファイラ画面にアイコン無しのシンプルさを求める場合は難があります。 iPhone内ファイルを開く場合は、一度ファイルを開いたあとならシンプルなファイラ画面になります。 しかしiCloudに対するファイラー画面が所謂「iPhone内蔵のファイルというアプリ」がベースになっているので、ハッキリ言って本アプリのコンセプトとはミスマッチでダサいです。 そしてうっかりPDFなどを本アプリで開いてしまうと、テキストとして処理できないまま保存までされてしまって、空ファイルが出来上がります。 そのため、フォルダ内に資料等のファイルは置かない様にしておきましょう。 ファイラ画面にのみそういったマイナス要素はありますが、プレーンテキストエディタとしては最強。 黒画面でフォントもカラーも選べて、横画面にもなり、textexpander旧版もそのまま使えて、iCloudもDropboxも使える。Bluetoothキーボードでの入力も可能。メガバイト単位のファイルを開いても遅くならない。 ファイラだけ....ファイラだけなんとかしてくれたら..... --- 余談ですが、他レビューにある 「余白をタップして左右に.....フルスクリーンにならない」 というのは操作が既に誤っており、本アプリにフルスクリーン機能はございます。フルスクリーン機能を期待する方はご留意ください。 一画面以上の長文を入力したファイルを縦にスクロールすると、自動的にフルスクリーン画面になります。 加えて、そのまま上にスワイプするかステータスバーの場所をタップする事で、最上部メニューが表示されてフルスクリーンが解除されます。

I have been patiently waiting for about five? Years for amit to update this... I am very excited to try the new xcode rewrite. The old inherited code was very buggy and jesse had to abandon it but no shame there it happens! This is super duper and ill try and remember to come back and update my impressions.. (I was an original write room user in like 2009..) so.. :). Much respect to you Amit, this rocks!

I wanted to use the app to edit .txt files in one single Dropbox directory, while keeping a local "cache" for offline use and eventually sync files. Simple use case. Even though I wanted to sync one single folder, it requested access to all my dropbox files, which makes me unease. I dont see any of the dropbox files, even after clicking to sync. The main UI of the app is the iOS files UI. It shows only "Recents" and "Browse". "Browse" doesn't show any dropbox files unless I go to the Files app and include Dropbox in the Files, which is exactly not what I want and the sole reason I got the app: to sync to Dropbox directly without using Files app. If I wanted to edit the files using Files native UI, there is a free "txt" app that does it. Other than that, some bugs: Files open and close immediately, files open an app freezes, app crashes when going back from dropbox setup or when opening some files. Sometimes files open with the text "UIDocumentDataToRead" instead of the contents of the file. So it seems that based on the contents of the files, the app can't handle them well. Unfortunately I can't use the app for what I intended so I am requesting a refund.

Switching apps caused me to lose work in this app. I am working away, switch to another app and come back to an older version of my document! Even if my document is ok, when I swap back it ignores my keyboard entry. I can use the onscreen suggestions, but no response from typing. Leaving the app and coming back doesn’t help, but it does respond to touch. Keyboard works fine in the other apps I am switching to. Not sure how to contact developer for support. There is plenty to love about this app, but it needs more work.

Excellent app. I can really concentrate in just write. Just I think it would be wonderful if I could have page numbers, or something to count the pages of what I write.

Writemator is the continuation of WriteRoom. If you used that you know why you want this. If you didn't, you want it because it's a tool which lets you write text while staying completely out of the way. I am so glad this thing exists. Yes it costs money: the person who is maintaining these wonderful tools needs to make a living and that's just fine: if you use the thing more than a few times it pays for itself.

Ver 3以降は、ファイル選択画面の初期状態が、IOS標準のFILEアプリ風になりました。 これをやめたい。 一度なにかのファイルを開いて閉じなければ、Ver 2と同様のファイル選択画面にならない。 うんざりする。 それでも課金する価値は、おおいにある。 ほぼ最高の、テキストエディタ。 Ver 2で完成していたのに...😭

Purchased the app to replace Writeroom. Linked to Dropbox, authorized. Hit “Sync Now” and the app crashes. Opened again, Settings > Dropbox > Sync Now. Crash. Seems unstable.
