まだまだ甘い

このアプリはiPadのサーバークライアントとしては非常に完成度が高くて良い。ですがテキストファイルの2ペイン表示に対応してくれればベスト。
なお、同名のファイルをダウンロードする際に上書きとダウンロードのキャンセルにしか対応していない点には注意。

This app is very complete as an iPad server client. However, it would be best if you supported the two-pane display of a text file.

Could you please check for the way it accesses the network files?

Hello.
I’m having some issues with this app.

It freezes for about a minute, every 3-5 mins and it’s close to unusable.
It doesn’t always do this so I wasn’t sure what’s making it do this, but I think I know the issue. It seems like it’s the network issue, because this happens every time I use the files on the local network storage.

When I open the files on the local network storage at home, I have no issue using it. But when I go out, it obviously cannot access the local files anymore, so it seems like it freezes when trying to access them again which I think is a descent behavior.
So recently I’m making sure that I closed all the files on the local network before I go out. However, I think it’s trying to access the previously opened files for some reason. And this happens every 3-5mins until it reaches the timeout(probably about a minute) or the destination…
The problem is, it doesn’t access at the background, so that it just freezes and leaves it unusable.

Would you please check if there’s the code which makes it do the similar behavior?
or it helps if there is the way I can refresh the cache on this.

This has been a headache for me over the years and looking forward to using this without any issue.

Best Regards,

Subscription X

I just hate subscriptions, you might say oh but we have buying option right now, iPad is already a crippled device for coding and you don’t have a compiler for Textastic and you ask for a whopping 10k yen for one time purchase? I will pass! You still offer your Mac app for 1.5jpy though… At least make this a bundle if we buy full time…

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your feedback.

Textastic offers both a subscription and a one-time purchase, giving users the flexibility to choose. The iOS and Mac apps are developed separately to make the best use of each platform, which is why they are sold individually.

Thank you again for trying Textastic and sharing your thoughts.
