Great for editing text files in general, however I wish it would include support for editing XML files. That is probably 90% of what I use it for these days, but at the moment I have to rename the XML file to change the extension to TXT, make the edits, then rename it again to change the extension back. UPDATE: I corresponded with the developer over email and they were able to implement the suggested change. This app does pretty much everything I need it to now.

There needs to be a way to disable the timeout When you run a script, it will kill it after around 10 seconds. They need to add a way to disable the timeout. It would also be great to see live output, rather than only displaying output at the end of execution (if it doesn't timeout). It has many issues when used with a mouse/keyboard. The most annoying is refreshing the app and switching the tab when you disconnect/reconnect a keyboard/mouse. Best editor for Android that I have used so far

I'm grateful for 'QuickEdit Text Editor Pro'. Google, for whatever reason, doesn't make a notepad-type app or allow Docs to serve that function. Occasionally I've needed to change configurations in games + game emulators and this app came recommended to me for that purpose. It works well and is easy to use. The free version has mostly unobtrusive ads; but, I liked it enough to want to upgrade to this premium ad-free version to better support the developer. It's a great app and I recommend it.
