The editor is easy to use and really helps me a lot in creating my README's or any other file that requires markdown
★★★★★Andhika· May 24, 2026
- Please make the keyboard pop-up whenever I tap anywhere on the text region. Currently, it only pops up when I tap on "Markdown here..." - Scroll for long code block doesn't work. It conflicts with switch between preview and edit mode - Inconsistent app name. Sometimes it's written "Simple Markdown" but also "Simple Markdown"

Best simple Markdown editor/viewer. I only wish the ability to print the document was there. I would be happy to help with that.

The markdown preview is solid. However, the text editing and save features are extremely frustrating. Half the time it errors out, the other half it saves to an unknown location rather than overwriting the original, even when using "save as" with a new file name.

It doesn't allow me to save the changes made to existing markdown files. Every time I try saving, it says "an error occurred while saving the file".

I chose this app for integration with Cloud But that doesn't work, really. After save the filename reverts to Untitled.md. Opening a file generates errors as often as not. Cloud now automatically opens .md files in simple markdown, but they always revert to empty file called Untitled.md. I would pay but not for this. I know the Cloud app sucks, so I commiserate, but this is useless with Cloud

This app is awesome, it's exactly what I need, but cannot open/save to my Dropbox, so it's useless for me personally.

Good potential Works well but lacks equation, tables, check boxes etc. which do not display correctly in preview. Could not directly upload to OneDrive.
