Haven't used it a lot but I'm pretty impressed so far, it's exactly what it says on the tin; a fully-featured text and code editor. I used "C" as my syntax for some Arduino code and it worked great!! A complaint tho, it had a pretty hard time selecting text (and the default line highlight and selected text colors are very very close to the same) and that's something I do a lot of, specially with a good text editor like this is. Hopefully there's custom colors, we'll see

Copy/Paste via tap-and-hold isn't working, and hasn't for at least the past couple versions. The tap-and-hold copy/paste menu is now nearly impossible to get to appear. I use this app to strip out formatting before I paste text into Google Docs (which stupidly doesn't allow the "Paste as plain text" option in the Android app). So the above functionality is mission-critical to me. Also, the ads are even worse than they used to be, and I'm concerned could cause HR issues at work.

Besides ads, this app is pretty cool! I can even edit the files remotely from my FTP server! Not only that, it can edit most of text files like .txt, .html, .php etc..I love it so much so I would definitely recommend it.
