  1. 1/5New Update Imposes Limits

    I loved this app because I could edit rtf documents from my Mac on my iPad. I could even connect to my Mac with Files App and access documents right on the hard drive. I updated today, and now there are limits imposed on how many documents I can have in the app. Even the trash on the app has limits! What's more, I can't even access documents on my Mac with Files App without being stopped by a pop up telling me I have too many documents! All because the developer wants me to pay for the "Pro" version. I am sorely disappointed in this update, and I will be deleting this app if the limits are not removed promptly. The developers should know how angry their customers will become if they suddenly impose limits on what was once unlimited. Bad decision. Time to look for a new rtf editor.

  2. 1/5Update makes you pay to see you previously made documents!!!!

    I used to love Text Edit. I’ve had it for several years now. I have used it as my main document making and saving app. I’m learning ASL and I have made and saved so many documents to this app, from my word lists, to practice sentences and more. Then, just recently it started saying I couldn’t add any new documents unless I paid for a premium subscription! So I had to stop making new documents, but I was still able to see and use the many, many documents I had made on here over the years. Now, since the new update, every time I open the app, it brings up a pop up every time I open the app, to do a free 3 day trial that will then end up making me buy a subscription after the 3 days!! As far as I could see there was no way to exit the pop up or see all of the many documents I’ve made unless I agree to this! Even tried turning Wifi off, pop up still came up and said I couldn’t use the app because I was offline! I almost never write reviews, but I wanted to warn others so they don’t lose all the documents they make unless they pay. I’m really upset about this because I just lost all the work I’ve put in making the documents because I’m not going to pay for the app. Would give it 0 stars if I could.

  3. 1/5Please fix the AI ransom demand popup!

    Update: TO THE DEVELOPERS: I’m commenting from the iPhone version of TextEdit after manually rescuing all the documents I made with previous versions of TextEdit to protect them from the ransom-ware that the iPad version of TextEdit has become. I understand that having built in AI would be useful to some, but being forced into a monthly subscription for a service I am not interested in (a service that is so ubiquitous these days, who needs it as a monthly subscription on every little app or website?) to access previous documents is outrageous. I also understand that you hope to make lots of money off your AI gamble. You should be ashamed. One of the reasons I chose to work with TextEdit was the universality and downgrade-ability of plain text data. If you had offered a separate AI version of TextEdit without holding us simple folk hostage, that would have been actual intelligence, not artificial intelligence. Best of luck to you. I hope you have a change of heart.

  4. 1/5Can’t edit anything and stupid

    I just purchased this app and found out that I was bricked from editing text documents, and I can’t even make a text file, all due to an AI edit pop-up that has no close button, and you can’t even describe how bad it is. Please update and remove this pop-up before I report this app. I would give 0 stars if there was an option. Please remove this pop-up So I can edit my text documents. So if you had just not added this pop-up, I would have used it for years. I would have been very happy, but no. You decided to do something stupid and somehow brick me with an AI edit pop-up that won’t let me do anything. Ridiculous how I have to spend $1.99/month to just use this app. 3 day trial and then I have to pay. So pathetic and stupid. I am going to ask Apple for a refund.

  5. 1/5What is this thing thinking?

    Absolutely the most complicated text editor I’ve tried yet. All I want is a simple editor that can read rtf format, and save and find things on my cloud drives. This one only uses Apple iCloud Drive,and installs its own folder. So if you already have a file started, it won’t see it until you physically move it into that folder. Then it starts in with templates and other stuff I don’t want. Not to mention you HAVE to accept the three day trial of some ai tool just to get the app to open, and then you have to go cancel the trial or get bill $5 a month. This is a terrible app and a total scam to get money from you.
