Very simple ,smooth, easy to use and auto save, maybe it need to have an export function, but I seldom need to export since it is simple note, can copy and paste it. Really help specially when in hurry 😀

Best aap! Simple n easy. Search option would be a great addition in next update. It would be very easy for the user to find any text from all files.

I've spent a lot of time trying to find apps that don't require unnecessary permissions. This is by far the best Notepad app that doesn't require any permissions. A dark mode would be nice, however the current color scheme is good.
