I have had several occasions when iCloud either won't sync or loses my document while using Byword. I hope the developer fixes this soon, because it is an otherwise very good text editor.

I originally picked Byword up for some edits to a markdown document I was working on. Soon, it became my go-to editor, whether I am using it for writing a post, a README, or an action plan. Today I was hunting around for a .fountain editor for my iPhone and remembered that it was just markdown. Opened the file in Byword and off to the races again! You will keep finding uses for it.

A true *writer*’s app. Fast. Stable (never a bomb). Unintrusive. Easy print. Easy Markdown generation and preview. Easy export to HTML. iCloud sync. What more could you want?

Do you think you can add a trash can? Incase you accidentally deleted a work and you can retrieve back.

Byword is a clean, simple markdown/plaintext editor. There are a couple small bugs, like how tapping at the bottom of a scrollable note to bring up the keyboard puts the cursor in the wrong spot. But the biggest issue I have is with the lack of recursive search. Searching only looks in the current folder but not subfolders.

It's the best of everything I've tried. It's rock solid and a great companion to the Mac and iPad apps. Very worth the price.
am i taking crazy pills!!
I was really in love with this app until I realized there is no passcode or Touch ID option. Privacy is a big part of why I use these apps for my writing. If I am missing something let me know. It is a significant oversight.

Fast. Stable. Easy to use for Markdown. Easy export to htm and pop directly into my blog. Everything I want in a writing app. No possible gripes.

Please read before purchasing: I own Byword (desktop Mac OsX version) and I have been using this app for professional writing since years now. I am currently abroad and I needed to be able to access my documents on my iPad Pro and I decided to buy the pricy $6 iOS version of the app. Later I discovered that none of my documents appear in the iCloud folder, and the reason is quite irritating. On Byword website they state that they are still evaluating if investing money to allow Rich Text docs to be open in the iOS version, while suggesting and promoting the use of simple text. To have my documents while away from home, I did not hesitate to invest Menes in your overpriced iOS version, of an app that i already own. This is a cheap and unprofessional move, and it will cost customers more than it would have cost to offer the see less functions between two payed versions of the same app.
