    I love the App. The “Allow Access to All Files”, that the app can modify files and not notify me of the modifications, appears to be part of the evolution of Android File Access and Restrictions. I’m not pleased with Android’s wording of this Permission, but I have seen it on other apps since writing my previous review. This is the 3rd most common App I use next to Browsers and Email.

  2. Glen Dizongo dice:

    The idea of struggling to find a text editor app on android is crazy, it sounds like such an easy thing to accomplish but that wasn’t the case for me. They would always have too many features and a cluttered UI or obnoxious account linking. All I wanted was a text editor that worked and didn’t feel annoying to use, and QuickEdit delivers on that. Been using it for 4+ years now, still stands tall as the best text editing app. It looks great, feels great, it’s as good as it gets for text editors.

    Update, 06/16/2020: After uninstalling & reinstalling, everything is working fine, now. Thanks. Update, 05/26/2020: I’m no longer able to highlight blocks of text, to copy or delete. If you point and hold, it doesn’t do anything. If you point and hold in other applications, it gives you those two Select bars, that allow you to highlight blocks of text.

    Very cool, an actual WORKING text file editor. It has lots of useful features too, just like regular computer editors. Unlike many editors, its search function works properly. It took me a long time to find a truly functional Android text editor. It’s well worth getting the paid version. The app is now even smaller and even faster responding. The one bad thing (as others have said) is the text selection is a huge pain to do. It’s often easier to hold down the backspace key instead.

  5. Has been a more-or-less perfect 5-star text editor on mobile until a recent update made it so I can’t launch the app with an internet connection. This was a very frustrating change, as I need to keep my devices offline 90% of the time. I like the direct integration with Dropbox (which I use when I am actually connected), would like to see integration with Box as well.

  6. The good: able to sync directly with Google Drive acct, so saves time with downloads. The bad: precise scrolling is lacking — up/down scrolling goes way too fast (only happens inside of app). This is important because of the delicate and detailed nature of editing text and code. Selecting text is primitive compared to more sophisticated, more productivity-oriented text editor apps, like Notepad ++.

  7. This app is *so* good! Absolutely a daily driver app, for me. I originally stayed for the excellent UI and the depth of seemingly small but really important options, like being able to define the type of line break for immediate compatibility with Linux vs Windows… but have since discovered some other *super*-useful abilities too: sticking with the line breaks theme, you can actually type n as part of Find & Replace, making that simple feature incredibly powerful, perfect for scripting!

  8. “Restoring previous session…” messages are getting better including when resizing a multi-window split screen – thanks! [+1 star] Update: Pro version has nice features, updates are making this a better experience, but still “Restoring …” message when (dis/)connecting with a Bluetooth keyboard on my tablet, (full screen or split) even after dev’s 9/22 note. I’ll keep updating this review as I see improvement. [see review’s update history for past comments]

  9. 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.

  10. Update, 06/16/2020: After uninstalling & reinstalling, everything is working fine, now. Thanks. Update, 05/26/2020: I’m no longer able to highlight blocks of text, to copy or delete.

    Love this text editor! Have been using it for years now. The only thing I find frustrating is saving – the auto-saving isn’t as robust as I would like, and manually saving requires navigating through a sub-menu. It would be wonderful if there was a one-click way to save – perhaps an option for a dedicated button, or by clicking on the filename at the top of the screen? Edit: love the new toolbar! Does just what I want.

  14. I have only a couple criticisms for this app, which may be the best text editor I have used on Android. The “Save Session” function does not work consistently, and seems to open old sessions more often than not. Occasionally it will open my most recent session, but I dont see any obvious pattern in its behavior. The “Open File” dialog should at least have an option to start in the last directory used. An “Open Recent..” menu option could help with endless folder navigation as well.

  15. Totally nonstandard UI. Can load from SD card but only saves to internal storage. What!!!?? Can’t select text file format to associate with txt. Can’t tap a txt file in the file manager to load with this program. Brain dead. What a waste of 3 dollars. Okay that ^^^ was a little harsh. I’m finding this useful and have found workarounds. The file association thing ended up being not a problem. Still think the UI is really odd but now I’m used to it I can make use of the app.

  16. It’s a solid and dependable text editor, but with a couple of major problems. 1. It loses permission to the SD card every time you reboot. The only way to restore it is to create a file. You cannot edit and save an existing file. 2. The viewer opens linked files in the editor, not the viewer. 3. Cursor positioning is also difficult.

  17. This is one of the best apps on Android. Being a self-proclaimed plaintext geek I use this app exclusively as a standard text editor for plain text files to increase my personal productivity. I have some extremely large text files which the app handles just fine. It’s just perfect and has all the tools you need to work with plain text. Combined with a dark mode and the ability to copy to and from network drives or your SD card it is absolutely phenomenal. A big thank you to it’s Developers!

  18. At least I can save notes as text files; but placing the cursor and selecting text is an exercise in frustration. Regardless of font size, if I try to extend a selection, trying to drag one of the selection handles usually deselects and moves the cursor to the next line. Once a document fills more than the space above the on-screen keyboard, navigating becomes awful; not only is positioning the cursor extremely difficult, but text and cursor randomly jump around while you’re trying to work.

  19. Worth Every Penny! I’ve been looking for a good HTML editor on Android for months but been disappointed with all the others–including the text editor preinstalled on my Pixelbook Chromebook. This works as expected with cursor placement, which many Android apps do NOT, and the workspace is adjustable as it should be, but many other Android apps are NOT. It’s definitely worth 5 Stars. My one request is for the built-in Storage Manager to be able to use Google Drive where my documents are archive from all devices. Now I have to move them onto the Pixelbook as a “local” file for QuickEdit Pro to work with. That will make it 100% functional.

  20. Update: After all of the latest updates it’s more stable and usable than before. Kudos to the developer! Review: Used the free version for a while. Bought it today. Really one of a kind text editor I have ever encountered in play store. A slight issue is there. That is cursor’s behavior is autistic. It not works quite well like any “tap, wait & select”. If I want to select any text and want to move the cursor then it jumps here and there. Maybe it’s a bug. Please resolve this issue ASAP!

  21. QuickEdit Pro, Android 9: I love it and it is absolutely essential and indispensable. Thank you! Quick suggestions to make it ever better: 1) When saving file note.txt, create backup file note.txt~ of how it was before it was saved. 2) Enable search dropdown list of previous several search queries. 3) When user positions cursor and then long-touches to copy or paste, hold that cursor position; currently it does not hold, but moves to the long-touch position.

  22. Got it so I could edit local webserver on the fly, on my phone, without needing a computer. I updated an html file within minutes of installing. Pretty easy to configure and use. Some of the permissions are iffy, but could be related to remote file access and not data mining. Also like that it is updated regularly.

  23. Session restore is fixed, mostly, Thanks. ‘Mostly’, I get varying results depending on how a file is opened. From stock file browser and/or OI file manager it’s fine, from Root Explorer it’s no joy. Quirks, eh? Not complaining, just commenting. – – – You can’t possibly build for every possible combination, I get it. – – Tying to be useful; it’s a lovely text editor, rather like Notepad++ for Android. It’s on all my ‘droids, one of the first things I install. It should be built in.

  24. Works great. However, deleting a file leaves “ghost” file in My Files, but deleting the zero-length file in that app removes the ghost. Also, this is the only app on my device which supports the standard Samsung kybd but does not support the keyboard’s clipboard button. Cut and paste work using the editor’s button. These are minor bugs, but it would be nice to see them fixed.

  25. I’m not a big coding fan on the phone. But I have found that waiting for an appointment or a train, can force you to fight boredom. So, I will load a couple of small files and, mess with them. Many of the text editors on Android are not as intuitive or functional as they are on the desktop. QuickEdit has become a great choice for text and code tweaks while on the go. It performs well on my Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G and has never misformatted a file on save or destroyed one either.

  26. Incredible app. As a Lead Software Engineer I often get called on to view edits/make edits to various websites on the go. For the longest time I would have to get my laptop out, tether to my phone, go through the normal routine…but now with QuickEdit I am able to do it quickly and instantly on my phone, or through Dex, which the app seems to work well on. This combined with OpenConnect for the VPN is a winning combination.

  27. this was my goto editor for programming for the longest time. it’s still a great editor for non-root ops. however with root pivs, editing files that require root give false successful message upon save. I can open a file, edit it, and save successfully. However upon opening that same file aftetwards I find that my edits are gone …as if it never happened.

  28. Almost there, but resume session setting is not working and developer is not responding to e-mail or twitter. I regret purchase. Maybe this will get a response? Update: resume session does work if the app is closed using the exit button or back button. Edit: why not save the session when a new file is opened? Then it wouldn’t matter how the app is closed.

  29. Doesn’t provide an easy way to save files back to files opened with SAF (OneDrive). so I used auto save feature to do so and found that the changes do not get saved correctly to OneDrive (extra text gets appended to the end of the files). Also there is no easy place to give feedback (other than creating an account on xda which im not going to do)

  30. Works great. I use it to create/edit text files. One thing to note as FYI: You must open files using this app, if you want your changes to be saved. If you open a file using a file manager, the file will open using this app, but this app will be unable to save the file. And that’s true of other text editor apps too.

  32. Finally the right editor. I had with a few other, paid or unpaid trouble to access files in the Android/data/.. folders and I needed it to edit Lua scripts for the AIO launcher. Now I can do the round trip without an additional file manager and Quick Edit remembers the last session. It gives me a really fast and convenient workflow. Thanks!

  33. The word wrap is weird, it does not keep .” together, so that closing double quotes go to the next line! I would like to see an option for auto save to be silent on success (rather than popping up a distracting “File saved successfully” message, it would only pop up the message if the save fails).

  34. Can’t connect to defined sftp host. With alternative free app was fine. Keep getting JavaScript floating window error (can’t even screenshot to Google for solutions) stays for 1-2sec. Basically noticed that “storage manager” doesn’t save any edits to connection. After edit, come back and it has old version in settings. So I guess, every time there is a problem with connection you have to delete connection and add new again. Please fix that guys.

  35. This editor correctly displays LF and CR. Also, it does not change LFs into CRs when saving a text file created by windows notepad. This means that text files created by windows notepad can be edited by quickedit interchangeably with no problems that I could find. This is not true for many other android editors. A+

  36. It’s the perfect simple text editor. It has the settings to modify how it works. I just started using it on a Pixel 6 Pro with Android 13 and I like it a lot. It’s certainly worth the price.

  37. Ali Rahal dice:

    There is a bug: if a file from the last session is deleted on the storage. the whole session get lost and is not loaded because of 1 file missing, the app should indicate the missing file and open other files of the session instead of omitting the whole session. Also can you please add a setting to select what items can be display on the left main menu (to be able to disable some items). Also add an option to disable online activities like the online compiler. Thanks. I’ll restore to 5/5 ⭐

  38. Unable to use OneDrive for business as one of the storage options (uses Microsoft’s personal OneDrive). Great for viewing or editing all types of log files.

  39. William B dice:

    I have been using QuickEdit for many years now. I Just decided to go ahead and pay for it because it’s a very good editor, in the beginning the ad’s used to bother me, but I’ve been using it so long now I just got use to them, I just bypass them quickly, most of the issues others were complaining of, when I was reading the reviews earlier today, I never had those issues, from the start long ago Quick Edit has always served me well, I thought, it’s already one of the best editor for Android.

  40. Nice. 5 stars if you add a “filter lines” option to show only lines which have matching text. That would be very useful.

  41. Hi developer This is really good, however can you make an option to remove warnings / request for “Access All Files” permission? This works fine just opening txt documents from other applications, and doesn’t need full storage permission to work. Not that I don’t trust you, but if your releases get compromised I don’t want this app to have permission to read everything on the filesystem. Thank you!

  42. Bought the Plus version. Super glad someone designed a highly usability focused text editor in Android environment. The intuitive simplicity comes from well organised features. Great work. It’s a joy to work with this.

  43. I tried the free version but the ads are so intrusive, disruptive, and underhanded (when you try to exit it opens a confirmation window, and then right when you try to tap “exit” it opens an app ad and puts the “install” button right where you’re about to tap to exit) that it’s not worth using. The paid version works exactly as it should and is well worth the price. One of the few that has no problem opening text files via shortcuts, for example. One flaw: even dark mode opens in bright white.

  44. This application is great as text editor, but is missing an important feature: when opening a folder to select a file, there is no option to search/narrow by filename. Right now, finding the file you need in a folder with many files can require manually scrolling through the list dozens of times, which is a real drag. If this is addressed, I’d definitely give it five stars based on its features and ease of use.
