Comments on TextWarrior for Android

★★★★★ A Most excellent Text Editor Text Warrior is a useful text editor. For Android 4.2 and higher it needs a third party keyboard. Hackers keyboard (free) or Smart keyboard work well. Text Warrior has powerful clipboarding. features as well as built-in help.
★★★★★ Text Warrior Works On Tablets Too! I have used Text Warrior on four Tablets. It has performed flawlessly on all of them. I started out with a Polaroid PMID 705 seven inch tablet. I also used it on two Proscan tablets one of which has a keyboard. Finally I installed it to my Trio Stealth 10 Tablet. With the android virtual keyboard it is easy to check spelling. It works fine with a keyboard. To access options and setting press the three vertical dots on the bottom of the display. Text Warrior is the best editor for large text files. If you are using another editor you will want to add this editor anyway and keep your other editor. It should be remembered that this app is for text files. It is NOT a word processor. If you are writing HTML text it will work, it just won't highlight. Hopefully Hoon will add HTML highlighting. When saving a file the first time you are in complete control of the filename extension but you must supply it.
★★☆☆☆ Unsafe save Worked on a file during some otherwise idle time. Saved and removed usb device. Opened file latter to discover that entire contents of file was wiped. This after several saves editing file. Overwriting an open file with an empty file is unacceptable. Uninstalling.
★★☆☆☆ Am I missing something? Clicking does nothing beyond moving the cursor, you can paste in but not select all, there is no menu for save, you can't zoom in or out on the tiny font. I have 25 tweets I pasted in, and cannot save the file nor even pull it back out to the clipboard. There's no help file, and only 2 things that do anything: a green window that changes to red when clicked, and a X/C/paste tag.
★★☆☆☆ Mostly good Worked perfectly for me until I changed phones, now it has some unfortunate interaction with the spelling suggestion system that duplicates words when backspacing.
★★☆☆☆ Unworkable on Motorola droid maxx Backspace key types previous word repeatedly, deletes some characters, then types them in again. Double tap on a word only selects one character, not the whole word. Unusable, otherwise it looks pretty cool.
★★☆☆☆ No ctrl-arrow navigation Doesn't have ctrl-arrow navigation that I rely on.

Note: For those who updated early to version 0.93, the crash on startup has now been fixed.

Tired of doing finger gymnastics to position the cursor? TextWarrior lets you customize text editing to the way you want it to be and more.


Besides all the usual features of text editors, TextWarrior offers 5(!) unique ways to fine-tune the cursor position. Especially helpful for those who are using devices without a hardware keyboard or stylus. While we are at it, why not add syntax highlighting for programming languages and a slideable clipboard. Best of all, TextWarrior is free and open-source! No internet permissions required for pesky ads.

* The only Android text editor that supports direct touch and drag selection of text and other custom behaviors
* 5 cursor navigation methods to choose from
* Word wrap
* In-place search and replace. Case-sensitive and match whole word options
* Slideable clipboard
* Syntax highlighting for C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Objective-C, PHP, Python and Ruby

* Recent file history
* Undo/redo
* Supports ASCII, Latin-1, UTF-8 and UTF-16 encodings
* Supports different line terminator styles

TextWarrior is a community-driven project. Usability is at the forefront and if you have any suggestions or feedback to making text editing easier, drop us an email. Android Market comments cannot be replied to.

Compatibility note: If the Shift and Alt keys do not seem to work on your physical keyboard, try holding the keys down as you would on a regular computer keyboard.
