Can’t open/edit rich text created elsewhere
My primary need is an iOS app that can open, view, and edit existing RTFD files in Dropbox and iCloud Drive. This app *cannot* do that. Additional shortcomings: (1) Plain text cannot be converted to rich text; (2) there are no list options—bullets, numbered, dashes, etc.; (3) default text size is huge, 23pt; and (4) there are no tab adjustments—you get what you get. While I understand the app was created to be a simple/basic text editor, its inability to open existing rich text docs—even small ones—makes this no more useful than Dropbox’s built in plain text editor.

No Zoom, File Creation Metadata WRONG, No Lists
There should be control over the text rendering size on screen, so that font size is maintained but a mobile user doesn’t have to struggle with tiny text. Many text editing apps traditionally call this as a “Zoom” function. The font sizing also seems to lack any display of the actual point size; there’s just a + & - button *when accessed from the context menu* (the main formatting menu’s interface is fine). List buttons in formatting do nothing. The developer was told this and they replied that there’s no such feature. Yeah? Then maybe you shouldn’t expose these buttons in the formatting UI when someone selects text, swipes to “Format” and chooses “More…” The controls for bulleted lists are right there and they don’t work at all. This is inconsistent UI design and I’m fairly sure RTF documents support basic lists in the standard. Worse: all documents created in this app are stamped with a file creation date & time that is 100% WRONG. File metadata matters, folks! Other reviewers pointed out the same issues and the developer responses were clueless or absent. Easy editing of RTF on iOS is ridiculously kneecapped by Apple and no developer has managed to fill in for the lack of a TextEdit for iOS as is found on Mac OS.
