Updated review.The developer must read! It's a fast lightweight and functional notepad and I use it more than the other word processing and editing apps thanks to its lightweight and easy interface.It stands out with the fact that it doesn't require any permissions & it's totally ad-free. It doesn't seem to be reading our notes either. Now it's even better with the search feature. Please add "favorites" and "create a folder" features and it will be the best notepad ever made for android platform

While all other features of your app are okay there are 2 of features that are most irritating. 1. After reading the contents of a text file when one exits to the main menu where a list of other text files are displayed, instead of remaining at the last opened filename, the list jumps to the first file. 2. Similarly while wanting to edit a text file, instead of displaying the first line and first sentence the cursor jumps at the last word of the last sentence. Implement these 2 improvements.

Mostly Harmless

November 28, 2024

Copy & paste functionality has become degraded following last year's update. There appears to be a marked lack of transparency on the part of the developer/Github to identify exactly where user data (text) files are stored. This has caused many problems when trying to recover archived Notepad files from one device for transfer/subsequent import into the same version of Notepad on another (newer) device.
