Latest reviews of Textilus Free - Write Documents and Notes on your iPad and iPhone app for iPhone and iPad

Lame
I got the message " You have reached the maximum number of documents allowed. Please upgrade to Pro version" (@$4.99) before I was able to create even ONE document. Literally - I got the message when I choose my first blank documents. I would consider purchasing the app if I simply had a chance to try it.
Editor Needs Much Work for 2016
App has an old User Interface and does not use the standard iOS text formatting tool B/I/U. Documents with tables dont show up right at all. Tested with Dropbox and it works but not smoothly. Not Recommended
Impressive but missing a few things
If it could make tables and export as a Word doc it would be worthy of 5 stars, although if you use a lot of symbols you might like this, in that regard it is without comparison.
Good start for free app, uncertain future when paying full price!
The rating of 5 stars is my joke... Please Read below... I couldnt submit my ratings with one star. I tried 5 stars (!!!) and the rating is enabled! Here is my experience so far.... I used this app a few months ago, the free version with limited options. It looked worthwhile to pay the full price and upgrade it. .... Soon, Textilus company showed its true marketing strategy: provide an upgrade that made the full-price version full of bugs and essentially useless....! I stopped using it, because it is a waste of time... I lost a number of drafts, crashes, frozen editor, weird keyboard behavior... When I wrote to the company, they politely answered that the problem is from Apple OS, disable the keyboard options from iPad preferences,...referred me to their outdated YouTube videos for how to use their App.... This repeated more than once, I finally got the message that they blamed it on me and the new Apple OS...
Awesome App
This app allows me the ability to type papers at my convenience. In addition, I can switch from my phone to my IPad and have everything I have written there. I have had other apps and they lost a paper that I had slaved over so imagine how I felt when I had to begin again. Simple to use!!!!!
