Ratings and reviews

Editor features are awesome. One bug: if I save a document, and then open another, it has been consistent that I cannot edit. I can view, and I can move the cursor, but when I type, nothing is changed. If I then close and open the app, it comes up with that document and I can edit it. For a free app, I can live with this easily worked around bug. Thanks for a very helpful app. I use this with a sync app that keeps the files updated on Dropbox, which allows me to view and edit on my PC.

Exactly what it should be. Very simple markdown editor, clutter free, simple and performant with no ads (so I recommend leaving a tip, available in the menu). The only additional thing I'd love to see implemented would be syntax highlighting, especially for titles and lists in the editor. Note that this app doesn't seem to support editing directly in the markdown preview - not needed for me but some might be looking for this feature.

Finally an app that just lets me write Markdown without trying to be my friend, sell me a subscription, or “organize my thoughts.” It opens, it works, it stays out of the way. No accounts, no sync nonsense, no features I didn’t ask for. If you want to write text and not fight an app, this is it.
