Ratings and reviews

Your most recent update has caused my offline file list to lag when scrolling. This used to be a great app, but it's been more than a year, and it still doesn't allow me to move the cursor along the text line by sliding my finger on the space bar. The act of backspacing to delete text is still super laggy. I'm tired of waiting for bug fixes that never materialize. Edited 07/17/24

My biggest problem is with editing - I select where I want to start, but as soon as I start typing or deleting, it jumps somewhere else, often to the middle of a word/sentence. I have to press space and then delete for it to allow me to type where I want, and this is obviously a huge impediment to the workflow. Also, not a huge issue, but I can't control line/paragraph spacing. Otherwise, I like it better than most doc editing software and am especially happy with the dark mode option.

No point in installing it! There's an option to create files and open them. Looks like there's a way to access files from Google Docs and others. There's no way to edit or paste text into the file I created, so essentially this app does nothing. At least on my device anyway: Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus. I'll find something else, or stick to Google notes, which has been serving me pretty well most of the time, but doesn't have unlimited space per doc, which I need for chapters of a book I'm writing.
