Description

Firstext is a simple text editor application.
I named it "First" + "Text" = "Firstext" with the aim of making it the "first step" in all kinds of text creation.

Firstext has the following features.
・Start typing as soon as the application is launched.
・The text you type is automatically saved and can be restored at any time.
・Ability to freely share text to other apps by creating and adding share actions to suit your needs.

There is no functionality for managing multiple texts or notes, decorating text, or inserting photos.

*Before removing the limitation by in-app purchase, the number of shared actions is limited to 10, and the number of saved history is limited to 20.
Please understand.
After confirming the usability of the application, you can use it without restrictions by making an in-app purchase.

Main functions and features
・Input text as soon as the application is launched.
・Automatic saving and restoration of text
・Ability to create and add shared actions.
・Ability to move the cursor by swiping left and right.
・Ability to search and replace text.
・Ability to search and delete history.
・Ability to count the number of characters and lines.
・Ability to change the font size of text.
・Ability to change icons.
・URL scheme support
- Launch → firstext://
- Startup by replacing the current text with the clipboard contents → firstext://clipReplace
- Starts by appending the clipboard contents to the end of the current text → firstext://clipAdd
- Inserts the clipboard content at the cursor position of the current text → firstext://clipInsert
- Starts with replacing the current text with the specified text → firstext://textReplace=[text]
- Appends the specified text to the end of the current text → firstext://textAdd=[text]
- Inserts the specified text at the cursor position of the current text → firstext://textInsert=[text]

The following features will be added in future updates
Synchronization of text, shared actions, and history with other devices via iCloud

*I have confirmed an issue where an alert regarding pasting is displayed every time when using clipboard-related URL schemes on iOS 16 or later.
 This issue can be avoided by updating to iOS16.1 or later and making the following settings from the Settings app.

 (1) Select "Firstext" in the Settings app and select "Paste from Other Apps".
 (2) Change the setting to "Allow".
 
 *Notification about pasting will appear even after changing to "Allow". Due to the limitation of iOS, you cannot turn off this notification.
