Love this app! Just discovered, and bought it on my Mac last week. Use it for writing reviews ever since. Downloaded the iPad/iPhone version last night. Hopefully I can use it on a shiny new iPad if I lucky and the planets line up just the right way!
I love it too. This one and Plain Text generally get the most use on my iPad for writing.
Glad you found it.
