Comments on Text Editor - Plain Notepad for Android

★★★★★ MALAY GHOSH · Jul 24, 2022

Easy and Simple txt flie creator and editor which I want. This app is almost similar to Windows notepad.

★★★★☆ Jeevan .G · Feb 9, 2023

I really like this text editor using this we can also edit game files. But only problem is we cant open some game .txt files it just stuck at a black screen that's the only problem

★★★★☆ Ded Pihto · Dec 7, 2025

Simple, humble, but good PLAIN TEXT editor, consumes little memory & disk work quick, but doesn't have any the char case change features, nor any the line number & the goto line features.

★★★★★ kqz · Sep 12, 2023

Finally, an app that actually lets you edit files like notepad on PC. I use it to edit config files by hand. Works great. Sometimes it has an issue where it can't access any files due to android's new stricter file system, but a quick reinstallation fixed the issue for me

★★☆☆☆ Dany · Nov 12, 2022

It's good, but it doesn't have underlined the underline text which am in need now.

★☆☆☆☆ Jon Coffee · Feb 16, 2024

The ads are loud videos that play automatically with the sound on. Even if you turn the sound off, the app does not remember your settings and the next time an ad shows it plays a very loud ad. This is extremely annoying in a quiet office environment. I understand the need for developers to use ads. But having ads play extremely loud obnoxious videos automatically with no way to turn it off is unacceptable.

★☆☆☆☆ Choose “Omnigitist” Wisely · Aug 21, 2022

Save file didn't work. Tried to edit a .txt file multiple time, after save, reopen the file, file shown pre edit.

★☆☆☆☆ Amy Webb · Sep 30, 2022

Why does a text editor have video ads? Also, when I have the keyboard open, the footer blocks the document view, so I can barely see the text surrounding what I'm typing.
