DraftPad

I just discovered this app and have only used it for less than an hour and I already love it. It takes a lot for me to get super excited about an app and then want to go and review it so quickly after acquiring, but I think Draftpad is brilliant because it's simple. It does one thing and one thing only. I use my fair share of multi-featured apps but it's just nice to have something with a simplistic layout. It really is like a sheet of paper. The only thing I wish this app could do is once you close it, all text in the draft get automatically deleted--or maybe have an autodelete on/off. This might be useful if the user's primary way of exporting the text is via the iOS Share sheet. Still, it's not a dealbreaker; you can simply cut, then copy to the clipboard, then paste it into wherever it's going to go. It's great that it's free, but I would have happily paid and supported the developer's work. (Developing any app takes time and doesn't happenat warp speed contrary to what many end users might think.)

It's basic, it's simplistic and that's the charm of it. No fuss, no muss. Far too often people get caught up with the advancement of technology that they tend to forget how well the basics can still be, especially when the fancier stuff can make life rather confusing and, as such, time consuming because your spending all of your time trying to figure out how the heck all of the different options work. So bravo to you to have the foresight to see this! So, for me, this is DEFINITELY a five-star app which I am going to "like" for Facebook too!!! Please keep up the wonderful work!

Nothing but text editing. I looked and looked for something like this. My favorite feature is the “ready-to-type” interface — you run the app and the first thing it shows is a cursor, not a list of text files with a “plus” sign that you must tap BEFORE you can type. Just run the app and start typing.

I’ve been looking for something like this for years. Just give me a blank screen to type some stuff that I can cut and paste. Don’t make me create new notes and save them. Just let me type out my Facebook rant without risking hitting the send button to soon.

Its useful just to write things down but theres no way to have multiple pages so you can only have one thing or a jumble of everything you write down on one page so in the next update fixing that issue would be great but other than that its good for writing something down quick
