• Rewind button to revert files to their original state.
• Supports dark mode, multiwindow, and state restoration.
• Customise font family & size used for editing.

Ratings and Reviews
I love this app except for one thing
What I found lacking is that the font attributes are not saved as part of the file. Any file that you open has the font and size that was last chosen in the settings.
App will not recognize its own files
Do not use this app! The new revision of this app will not recognize its own files from previous versions- I have lost days of work due to lost data! It makes the files unrecognizable. 😫😤😡 Do not use this app! Plus this new version is importing files that it can’t even load or use; random photos and other app’s files! Also the developer is unreachable- his website linked here goes to LinkedIn and they won’t let you message him! Do not use this app! I will retract this if the bugs are fixed ASAP and I can access my old files- just go back to the original version- it’s better even with its minor bugs! I believe the app revision forces a new app files document to be created, overwriting the old one, which throws out all the old files- the only file I can access was one I accessed from another editing app. Days of work lost! Terrible! 😢
You can edit one file ok, but…
… then you have to kill the app to edit a different file! There’s no way to exit. Weird.
