I want to give this a full 5 stars, but I can’t – Code Editor by Panic Review

The whole interface feels somewhat clunky. There isn’t a way to natively access files that isn’t convoluted (I spent way to much time figuring out how to import a cover). There is the files app on all of the iOS devices now with support for EXACTLY what they are trying to do and they have just not implemented it. The covers also stretch the image you provide a crap ton which is no fun. The terminal is okay, I have yet to figure out if there are any keyboard shortcuts for function keys, but it is okay. The code editing is wonderful. I have had little to know syntax highlighting glitches. The code completion feature is also really nice. It doesn’t search the file you are working in or the local files in the directory but it is still nice. It would be a lot better if there were some split screen option to reference other files, but I can make due with the tabs. The SFTP saving, honestly better than anything else. I love this. I love this probably more than anything else in the program. I really wish this app had Apple Pencil support either for highlighting or searching, or both at the same time. Overall, I like this app. It does an okay job, but better job than most other options. Why it costs $25? No idea. Why it doesn’t use files? Still no idea. Maybe the developer will add these things soon.
