QuickEdit

★★★★★

Full-featured text editor for Android. Good in a pinch on my phone, better on my tablet with either the onscreen or a Bluetooth keyboard.

Storage

Support for the major cloud storage providers, plus local, WebDAV and SFTP means that I can edit a file direct from my Nextcloud instance, or off of my desktop in the next room, or off of a server.

Also connects to GitHub and to GitLab servers. It would be nice if I could connect directly to any Git repository, because then I could connect straight to Codeberg, but to be fair, I wouldn’t have thought of that if it didn’t offer the specific forges.

Local files and cloud credentials are only stored on the device.

Usage

QuickEdit remembers your session, so I always have a couple of files available (including the migraine log I’ve kept since 2008, which can take a while to scroll through on a touch screen, but opens where I left off and doesn’t slow the editor down at all.) right when I need them, and it’ll pull down the latest version when I open it.

Finally started tracking system dark/light mode with the most recent update.

There’s a free version with ads that you can try out, but it’s easily worth the ~$4 one-time price for the paid version.
