Text Edit is a simple notepad app for the
Android OS written by
Paul Mach. It opens, edits and saves text files on the SD card.
Current, Final, Version: 1.5 released 2011-09-03
After almost 3 years I've decided to put this application to rest. Thank you for all the downloads.
Source code is available on
GitHub.
Features
- Open, edit and save text files
- Saves state when switching to other apps
- Detects external file changes
- Includes a file browser to select files
- List of recently opened files
- Rename and delete files

Unfortunately, this app is not recommended for large files. This is a limitation of the text display mechanism in the Android OS.
