usually my go-to word processor, but it's been so garbage lately. other reviews mentioned how it can sometimes merge words and jump the cursor to a completely different section of the doc while writing, and it's extremely annoying. now it's crashing constantly, and the auto-save isn't consistent enough to catch everything. very frustrating trying to do anything when I have to save just about every sentence or risk losing what I've written.

It used to be good, just meh, now. It doesn't do well on mobile if you cross platforms to another app. The worst thing that forces me to find workarounds for is that it doesn’t allow me to use my multiple-entry paste function. Instead, it has its own that - in 2025!- has one entry and it only allows one entry from your clipboard. ONE!! Cleary, they aren’t interested in mobile users at all. All good features require Windows. Other vendors do as well or better and don't abuse personal data.

What do you call a word processor that chaotically erases your work? I'm going to just use Samsung Notes, then paste the text into a Word document, and save it. I'm only using this app because I need it for school. in the middle of typing, the app crashes and loses whatever 1 to 3 sentences I was working on. Then it opens again with the most recent 3 or 4 paragraphs missing. then I open the document again, and find that it was only 2 or 3 sentences that are gone forever.
