It's great as a text editor and want I wanted, but it didn't add itself to my phone's Android system as an app to open TXT files. That means when I want to open a .txt file, my phone doesn't give this app in the prompt to "Open With". That seems like a basic thing to do for text editor app. I have to open the app, then have it open the .txt file. Not efficient.

I opened image file, and then txt file, and it just closed without opening that txt. I like autosave and that is saves file i worked on when i just close the app
