I love this little app! I write all my Haiku and various poems in this thing. I love the Dropbox intergration and the ability to change fonts. However I wish that it has a daily backup to Dropbox for folders feature as I just recently lost a great deal of work, not Jotterpad fault in the least. If your reading this backup your work daily folks one way or another. All in all I love the app and couldn't live without it. My Personal Wish List - added 09/29/2016 1. Contextual Search - Based on writing contents and not just the title. 2. Bulk Upload - Currently single file upload only. 3. Scheduled Upload - ability to set a time daily to upload. 4. Haiku - Syllable counter would be awesome!
Jediøtic! !
Epic. Just. Epic. I loved this app! I used it to write short Star Wars stories, and I had a GREAT experience! Honestly the best writing app out there. I'll probably buy the Creative Version too. Request: Please add a Cut/ Copy/ Paste option! Also, consider that not many people can buy the Creative Version, it would be great to add the read option as a free one. I can't read what I write, and that's very annoying.

Great app, but needs to improve its search feature to deserve 5 stars. Dev, if u are reading this, please polish the search and add a search bar or icon somewhere in the main interface. Edit: finding it buggy after upgrading to Android 7.0. Sync not working well, and it is crashing every so often. Further edit: It's gone unusable on Android 7! Dev pls update.

Finally a good app! This app is amazing! I can write stories, poems, non-fictions, notes and- Well, one thing you could add is a playscript setting with margins for names and action boxes. That would be awesome! I wish I could donate and that, but I cant xD Definitely a 5*!

Needs more improvement Please improve indentation of bullet lists. The prime selling point of this software is the beautiful rendering of Markdown. It's quite a downer if bullet lists (specifically numeric bullet lists) are not aligned properly. Also please support strikethrough and if possible code and monospace rendering
Nice app! It's a really good app but my book later had been deleted. Lucky fact that it was screenshot and that I can copy it again, but... please, PLEASE, fix this thing. Someday it was completely POOF! Gone. I would give you 5 stars but what if I had lost it?

Thank you I can't live without this app, and thank God for marshmallow support. Also, I bought the creative version and its so worth it. Suggestions: ain't it possible to change the fonts in different folders? And is there any option to make the thesaurus and rhyme offline?

Thanks Michael! It is not possible to do that at the moment. WHAT HAPPENED!?!?! I just went back onto the app and saw that all of my files have been deleted! They were really important.I have no idea what happened. Please tell me that there is a way to fix it. I really need those files. But this is still a terrific app.
Great writing App I use it to jot down pretty much everything. From my poems to my lists. The only gripe I have is not having online back up. When my phones have been lost/ stolen in the past, I lost all my notes
Perfect app for short notes or longform writing. This app has got all the features you'd want with none of the bloat that mobile users don't need. Whether you're on a tablet or a phone, there isn't a better app for writers. It's not as fully featured as MS Word or Pages, but when you're on a phone, who needs it to be?
Easy to use This is the best app that I've ever used. It is very easy to use and very fast. The only problem is that sometimes when you open the file, all the sudden the app stops and erase all the data.. ;) but it happened only once and after all it is a great app! I LOVE it!
Must own writing utility! This is the best app writing tool I ever used. If I did not need the extra features, I would still have bought them just to support this excellent app. I use this app to write on both my Moto X Smartphone and ASUS MeMO Pad 7 ME572C tablet. The integration with Dropbox excels at sharing between these two devices. Add a keyboard to your tablet and the app adjusts to increase your view. The developers also listen to their users to improve the app. If you write anyting, buy this app!

Hi David, thanks for the review! :) Edit: We will be revamping the entire app end of this year. Exactly what I needed This is the low profile, no frills writing platform that I was looking for. There's even a dictionary and thesaurus in the app so you don't get distracted by the internet when you look away for a second. Neat!
Don't Use This If You Plan On Keeping Your Files Even if You Switch Phones It's a a bunch of freaking cuss words. It won't let me transfer my files or select them to even do anything except rename or delete them. I'm never using again
Like it so far especially Dropbox integration Years ago, I looked at Evernote, but discovered that not all of the notes would be available offline. Since that is a deal-breaker for me, I decided to go with simplenote for a year or two. But as my note count got closer to 1000, their web interface became very sluggish. With this I only use the Dropbox "area", and have been using it for about a week or two, and I'm happy so far. As long as their offline features remain as well, I think I'll be happy. Miss the tagging though.
This totally deserves 4.7 stars! So far no problems with the free version, it's the best app tool for a poet or writer. The only thing I have had problems with is the spacing on the poetry layout. But it's awesome anyways!
Love it! Nothing short of great! Also, will you ever thinking of linking up with google like you do with dropbox? I know for me and my friends that would be really convenient for me as well as them.
Good app, but one request. I really love this app. It's very simplistic and has only crashed once in my three months of using it. One request is that the ability to bold words or put them in italics is added. Besides that, very helpful and I highly recommend this app.
Dropbox Integration Question I just reinstalled this app, after not having used it for a while. When linking to Dropbox, I find only the option to link to my entire Dropbox, whereas last time, I'm pretty sure Jotterpad used its own specific folder on my Dropbox (as seems to be borne out by the fact I have an old 'Jotterpad' folder already on my Dropbox). Am I missing something, or has the Dropbox Integration changed? I'm not keen on giving any app free reign to my entire Dropbox
Used to be good It deleted all my notes more than once, I lost everything the first time, now the dropbox backup worked but still very inconvenient
Beautiful and elegant and functional ...at the same time. I have purchased it as it doesn't display any ads. The 'search phrase' function alone - which sadly isn't available elsewhere - blows away other markdown editors. Few suggestions: 1. Add 'previous and next' functions in search; the markers on scrollbar are clumsy. 2. Add Google Drive, OneDrive. 3. Search function in file browser should be one click away; it would be used more frequently than 'view and sort' function which is mostly a one-time setting for most users.

Thank you so much Jayesh :) "Awe-wait for it-SOME!" A superb app. Just spiked up my interest to write by several levels. Though I would like to say that when I'm trying to share some writings via Whatsapp, the whole thing isn't getting pasted. Is it a small problem with your app or on a glitch on the side of Whatsapp? Please let me know. But otherwise, a brilliant app!
good for what I need Jotterpad is a decent place to dump all the sudden ideas that pop up when you're too far from the writing desk. Just wish the app wasn't always bugging me to buy the upgraded version, lol.
Two App Studio Pte. Ltd. September 5, 2016
Thanks Jamie. We hope that you can support us by purchasing the app. As you know, JotterPad does not contain in-app advertisement. At first I loved this app, but then all of the notes I had done, and I mean ALL are gone! Do you know how much things and ideas I had jotted in this app... oh my gawddd I'm so angry and sad right now... everything I had made...all gone!!! Ohh I am so uninstalling this app ..... oh my gawddd all the notes I had made for years are gone!!ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Still my go to writing app I have a used a bunch of writing apps and so far, this one is still my go to app whenever I have crazy ideas at 1am or on the road. It's organized, easy to use and writer friendly.

Thanks Jona :) Love the simplicity I used to have a lot of problem in trying to write recently. But the simplicity of jotterpad makes it so easy to write without having to fret about little details here and there or get distracted. Best for people facing writer's block! Would recommend to everyone.
Improve the app! I used to like it, but now I don't like it anymore because my file was completely deleted! WHAT HAPPENED?!! That was important and now where's my file? 😣 and I'm not the first to say that, so please improve it!! And get back my file, I took a long time to write it. Do something!
I took a break from writing Took a few months off from writing and everything is gone. All my files are missing. Can you guys let me know if you changed where the files are saved or did stuff get deleted with an update?
I love this app. The custom settings let you choose between different fonts, font size, alignment, line spacing, and the size of the frame, which is just what I have been looking for. These options allow me to customize the app in a way that makes writing on a small phone like my galaxy s3 not only bearable but actually productive and fun. Sometimes the app crashes though. But this could be an issue with my phone and its no big deal anyways because the app starts quite fast and I havent lost and files yet.
Great software I am afraid that, regardless of the disclaimers, Jotterpad is definitely still deleting files in its own data folder. No third party app can be blamed. I suspect it occurs during snapshot creation. Half my files are gone and had to be retrieved from backup last time. It is very clear that this IS happening and must be addressed not simply disclaimed. Apart from this it us a great app, but this problem is a killer. Update: mysteriously the missing files later reappeared both in jotter and solid explorer.
not bad! Now, don't get all stupid by adding features nobody wants or needs in the name of progress. Google search WAS cool but is slow and bloated today. Android 6 is looking more and more slimey like Win 10. KISS, dig?
This app has really helped me. I am an aspirin writer, and I dont get alot of time to sit down at a computer and write. Thanks to this app,and its dropbox integration, I am able to get mountains more done. Thank you.
Don't have much to say besides I love this so. I think it is the best writing so out there. I love the fucton of backing olip with Dropbox. I finally found a way to use all my devices with one file.
Kinda like it BUT there's no Bold and slatings there are some lines that should be in bold butI cant see it or the app doesn't contain it . as well as the slanting (I forgot the name/or something )
I love the promise of JotterPad, but I'm having increasing problems editing files, where I will make a text selection, and then begin typing, and while I expect it to delete my selected text (to replace it with what I type), it deletes extra text before what I selected, that I wanted to keep. Furthermore, since there's no undo and no access to previous versions, I'm screwed until I get to a computer to restore my previous version from Dropbox. To add to this, the display is often off, with some lines scrunched together, and other lines spaced too far apart.
Great app Works really well. I have never had a problem with it and the free version works perfectly fine. They never ask you to upgrade or give you ads. You're just missing a few features that aren't all that importabt anyway.
This is great I love the app so much I can write as much as I want it's amazing!! Only problems I had was when it didn't save my emoji or I can't paste a picture to my stories can you please fix that thanks!
This app is great for distraction free writing. The only thing it is missing is a full screen (immersive mode) toggle that will hide notification bar and soft buttons. The main problem, though, is that sometimes, the space between lines disappears and the two lines almost overlap. (this fixes itself after I rotate my phone, but it becomes frustrating after a while). If not for the spacing problem, I would have given 5 stars.
Found some problems The app is awesome and let you do plenty of things, including the ability to use Dropbox to share files, but for some reason the create new file button doesn't appear on the local part of the app. However, it does appear on the Dropbox part. How can I solve this problem?

Hi, we do not really understand your issue. Could you email contact@2appstudio.com for help? My favourite writing app: Try it on a Chromebook I write thousands of words every day professionally as a journalist and author. My favourite writing app right now is Jotterpad. I use the Android App on my Chromebook, and when out and about I can add or edit text on the phone or tablet, too. Very easy to use, stable and with just the right set of features – especially the night mode. Never change, Jotterpad!
