I've used this for years & it's superior to any other text editor I've found. 3 stars for the moment because it's started to "helpfully" autoformat my text & I can't make it stop. It insists on putting a period before 2 spaces. I must have complete control over my input. Sometimes I need 2 spaces & no period. I've tried turning off in app preferences, in keyboard prefs (I don't use default Samsung keyboard) & in Samsung keyboard prefs. App is still changing what I input. Can't go on this way.

what's the point of a text editor that refuses to open files that are stored locally on my device? "Can't open from Documents folder. To use internal storage, please choose a file from "Open from" > [Device Name]." Where is this "Open from" menu, and why doesn't the regular "open" dialog (that allows me to navigate to and select local files) automatically handle this scenario instead of instructing me to do some other manual workaround workflow? Awful. Simply Awful.

I used this for more than a decade & it worked welll. But now it's useless. I can’t create folders. I can’t remame files. I can’t delete old files after updating them. The Jota+ suffers from accessing too much data all the time. I preferred my files created in jota+ to be isolated from the rest of Android. Now you're putting multiple colors in lines of text. I had to delete everything that I'd written. I want just one color text BLACK!
