Editorial still alive?

psidnell

I’ve just returned to the app after an absence of a few years, since I need a good iOS markdown editor again and remember Editorial fondly.

But there has been only 5 updates in the last 5 years and one in the last 3. There’s no iCloud Drive or Files integration which is pretty much a requirement for this sort of app.

Is it just in maintenance mode now?

It would be sad if it joined VoodooPad in iOS editor heaven.

Can't speak for Ole but it does seem to be abandoned. His last Twitter comments about it suggested it may be too much work to get it updated the way he'd like.

Personally, I've loved using this app. The workflows and snippets are very useful to me, I like using Python for the scripting instead of JavaScript, and I absolutely love selecting text. The best feature for me is moving the selection marker into the middle of a word and having Editorial automatically move it to the end of the word so the whole word is selected. The current iOS text selection method is horrible, to my way of doing things.

But, as I moved to Editorial from Drafts, so must I move to another. I won't go back to Drafts and don't like iAWriter so I've picked Taio. Not perfect and still rough in some spots but, for me, it's an acceptable replacement for Editorial.

Of course, it uses the standard iOS method of selecting text but I'll cope. It offers iCloud and Files support. I haven't checked into Shortcuts integration or URL Schemes yet.

Other users will have other ideas, of course. Some are sticking with Editorial because there are none better and have gotten iCloud support through "Open in..." methods to save documents and Shortcuts/URL Schemes/clipboard methods to get copy from iCloud into Editorial.

Yep, from what I can see Editorial is not maintained anymore. @wbjethro Taio is an interesting new app! I stick for the time being with Drafts, but I liked Editorial in many ways much better...

It would be such a shame if Editorial disappeared. I use it every day and haven't found anything I like nearly so much.

it looks like it is over now...

Why would they not support it anymore? It's helpful, unless they can provide a substitute for it

Is it still valid? I mean you just said that it has only 5 updates. https://khalisthings.com/
