A smarter way to create documents * New documents no longer create a file the moment you tap Create. Write first, then tap the check mark and choose exactly where to save — iCloud Drive, On My iPhone, or any location in Files. * The save dialog remembers your last save location and opens there automatically. * Changed your mind? Close an empty document and nothing is left behind — no more stray "Untitled" files. Never lose your work * If the app is interrupted or force-quit before you've saved a new document, Only Text now offers to restore your unsaved text — including the name you gave it — the next time you launch. A more polished theme experience * Switching between light, dark, and system themes now applies instantly across the entire app, including documents that are already open. * Fixed the navigation bar occasionally keeping the wrong appearance after switching themes. Under the hood * Typing, scrolling, and opening Settings are all faster and smoother. * Reduced memory usage when editing large files. * Improved the reliability of saving to iCloud Drive. * Smoother keyboard animations in the editor.

About
Meet Only Text, a stripped-down text editor for iOS that brings back the simplicity of classic text editing. Inspired by the beloved, no-nonsense text editors of the past, Only Text focuses entirely on doing one thing perfectly: letting you view and edit plain text files. No markdown formatting, no color-coding, and no distractions. Just your words. Key Features: * Pure Plain Text - Seamlessly open, view, and save plain text files from your device, iCloud Drive, or anywhere else the Files app can reach. * Save Exactly Where You Want - When you create a new document, nothing is written to disk until you choose to save it at which point you pick the destination yourself, whether that's iCloud Drive, On My iPhone, or another location entirely. * Never Lose Your Work - Existing documents save continuously as you type. If Only Text is ever interrupted before you've saved a brand-new document, it's offered back to you the next time you open the app. * Zero Clutter - No complex toolbars, formatting menus, or markdown to learn. The interface gets out of your way so you can focus on writing. * Built-in Search - Quickly find text within long documents without leaving the editor. * Custom Typography - Enjoy the beautiful, monospaced Iosevka Curly Slab font set as the default, switch to your device's system font, or pick any custom font installed on your device with adjustable sizing to match your taste. * Adaptive Light & Dark Themes - Follow the system appearance or choose your own; the whole app, including documents already open, updates instantly. * Share & Print - Send a document to any app, or print it directly, right from the editor. * Modern iOS Integration - Built natively for iOS to ensure smooth performance, fast load times, and perfect integration with the Files app. * Lightweight & Fast - Opens instantly. Perfect for quick notes, writing code snippets, or keeping track of your thoughts on the go. Only Text is free to use, with no ads and no subscriptions. If you enjoy it, you can leave an optional tip to support future updates.
