iOS text editor is now available!
We are happy to announce that iOS now has a text editor! You can access this feature on any text file from the toolbar in the lower left corner.

I also came from PlainText 2 the only downside IMO though is that it doesnt auto sync. You cant keep the file open on your phone it wont sync...PlainText would auto sync with the file open and still running. If they could add that it would be great

Does it sync when you cloes/leave file? If so, ok with me.
Only problem I have on my iPad 4 mini is I can’t close/exit a file. I have to kill the Dropbox app

- Timdier8 years agoHelpful | Level 6Not sure I understand your reply. I know the file is saved, but the Dropbox app is not usable and needs to be killed. The iPad mini version is missing is the “<“ in the upper left corner. It is there on my iPhone.
This is a bug report. I understand the work around, and I am fine with it- Timdier8 years agoHelpful | Level 6Hi all, I just downloaded the iPad update that came out this morning, and the bug has been fixed. THANKS TEAM!
