Quando la gente mi chiede perché ho un iPhone rispondo che, più del dispositivo in sé, a fare la differenza per me è la comunità di sviluppatori indipendenti e dedicati come questo.

Translations are editing on steroids. Basically the grind is: read a portion of the original, tap in the new, then forward delete the old, move on to the next portion of original, and so on and so forth until reaching (in Italian) "Fine" (The End). Lots of forward deletion. But that is only the beginning of the end, because at that point, one takes the job (in my case a movie script or treatment) to the top and then proceeds to spiff it up from the top back to the bottom. And that too entails lots of editing. Lots and lots Runestone doesn't even have the equivalent of DEL. I don't see an extra keyboard row... And most tragically, all operations on handheld flatscreens (in my case) are connected to selection. "Finger-painting" on the screen is absurdly primitive. What an anomaly! Amazing bells and whistles (truly admirable stuff), paired with …place thy pudgy thumb on yonder screen and drag mini-handle up to and excluding the value thou wishest TO CONNECT TO... and then hit backspace to effectuate a (gulp!) forward deletion. Hint: the deletion part of editing is almost always about connection and not about word destruction. Well anyway... So this fine app, which I bet is fantastic for programmers (my next life) is a real dud for editing-heavy text jobs. Highlighting to delete in Anno Domini 2022? Bad bad bad... But I bought it and paid for the full version and will use it from time to time, hoping to be proven wrong, hoping for some "app magic"... I'm sure it's there... but I bet it's for programmers and not for writer/editors

Cercavo un’applicazione che potesse sincronizzarsi con Google Drive e modificare i file txt salvati lì senza passare da altre applicazioni. All’inizio funzionava benissimo, quindi ho deciso di acquistare la versione completa. Da circa una settimana a questa parte succede una cosa veramente fastidiosa: dopo una mezz’oretta di utilizzo, si può ancora scrivere, ma nel momento in cui si cerca di uscire dal documento o fare qualsiasi altra cosa l’applicazione diventa inutilizzabile, non risponde ai comandi e se si cerca di riaprirla crasha. L’unica soluzione è quella di riavviare l’iPad, dopo il riavvio si apre tranquillamente, ma tutto il lavoro che hai fatto prima che l’applicazione decidesse di fare i capricci non c’è più. Assolutamente inaccettabile, ho perso ore di lavoro per questo motivo. Fatevi un favore e rivolgetevi su altro.

I was about to give up in finding an app exactly like this: hella simple and with the ability to "opens from" and "save to" Files app even outside the appdata folder no matter the extension and taking into account the syntax. I sync a 150GB folder of documents, repos and stuff with Syncthing on my iPad and I needed something like this! I love it, I think I'll soon upgrade to premium, mainly just to thank the dev (the free tier is already good fir a basic usage).Bug report: I noticed the save function of the file stopped working (so the "Done" button to go back to main menu) after I tried to open a second instance of the app in Split View, iPad Air A2316 (but happened only once, idk if its iOS or the app). (Edit: I’ll open a GitHub issue, I can confirm is a problem when running 2 instances)A request: can you implement Markdown preview? Also side to side so that like on the left I can still edit the markdown, while on the right I have its preview.
