Unmoved

This app has an unpolished look and feel. The icons images are unclear and clunky; it reminds me of an old school linux UI, when pretty much every tool that came out used a different UI technology, so nothing was ever finished looking.

It’s also got terrible workflow. Dialogs like formatting popover the text. There aren’t even buttons for alignment and, even though you can customize the toolbar, they aren’t one of the options.

And bugs, like a background the color of the page filling the top 1/4 of the surrounding background when you view it maximized. This app has a long way to go to earn the ratings it’s been getting.

On the positive side it does seem quick/lightweight, and it has an alternate color scheme that only effects the document by I appreciate the choice in colors. I think if you’re going to present two options, the designer chose wisely (and you’ve got to have a darker option for me to be happy, so I was glad to find the alternate color scheme existed).

So, perhaps with some work, this may evolve into the application “everyone” seems to think it already is.
