Everything I want in a basic mobile text editor. It's lightweight, it's fast, it only connects to the network to reach cloud storage and doesn't demand to be always-online, it does not try to have or push any features other than basic text editing, it understands file folders in a normal and sane way. It has text. I can edit the text. This is all I ask and it delivers.

This app used to be the gold standard text editor on Droid. A few years ago, I got a surprise that now an internet connection was suddenly required to even open it. Now, all my open tabs, many with critical info I use every day, randomly disappear without warning. I have this info backed up, but it's still a huge pain to have to restore it all. Money wasted, time to move on.

An impressively well-engineered app. It's the Notepad++ for Android. Light, fast, reliable, and affordable, with an intuitive tabbed interface that makes sense for a phone. Autosaves. Accesses cloud storage, WebDAV, FTP, GitHub. Supports bookmarks, alternate keyboards, syntax for a wide variety of programming languages. Along with Cx File Explorer, one of the essential apps for those used to a desktop. There's a nearly identical app called Code Editor. I don't know why. Simple, brilliant design.
