Ratings and reviews

A great app. It makes it easy to edit text files. One of the best features is it allows you to change background, text, and current line colors; making it easy to adjust for readability, you're not limited to default setting. On the side shows line numbers, as setting, this is great if I have an idea for a python script but not at my desktop. It's not a complicated app, it does what it says, with great customizable options. I recommend this app.

I use it for coding. It's superb. When I try to type a number like, "137" I type the "1" then I type the "3" but what comes out after the "1" is "13" leaving me with "113" from simply typing "13" It is definitely a bug that's clashing with predictive text, because if I want to remedy the problem, I have to disable predictive text before using it. it's a hassle but the app is still worth it.

When I open a file from Samsung/My Files/ Documents, edit in Notepad, and then save, it disappears from the Documents folder. If I open the file from the app, it appears in the tree of the app. Why? That is confusing. It would help to save to the location the file was opened from, or at least give you the choice of locations.
