About Pure Writer
Pure Writer is a very fast plain text editor, built so writing can go back to what it was meant to be: pure, safe, always ready, and never losing your words.
Your words stay yours. Documents are stored on your device and can be backed up to your own iCloud or cloud drive. Pure Writer is simply a tool for writing and organising your own text, and it never publishes what you write.
PEACE OF MIND
Even if you delete something by mistake, or your phone loses power without warning, your document is still saved in full, or waiting for you in History.
SMOOTH AND FLUID
Built on ten years of experience with editors and rebuilt from the ground up for iOS, with Liquid Glass throughout. Typewriter Mode keeps the paragraph you are writing in focus, and reopening a document brings you back to where you left off.

About Pure Writer - Writing & Notes
Pure Writer can solve all these problems. It's a super-fast plain text editor, and we hope that writing can return to its original form: pure, secure, anytime, without losing content, and with a good writing experience.
Peace of Mind
The icon of Pure Writer is a projection of a time machine, implying that words can take us through time and space, and also corresponds to the "history record" and "automatic backup" features specially provided by Pure Writer. With these protections, even if you accidentally delete the text, or your phone suddenly loses power and shuts down, your document can still be completely saved or found in the history record. Over the years, Pure Writer has provided a reassuring, secure writing experience, achieving the rare feat of no loss, and has been widely praised.
Smooth and Fluid
In addition to achieving the most important security guarantee, the UI interface and various writing aids of Pure Writer can also make users feel that this application is really pleasing to the eye and smooth. Pure Writer has adapted the soft keyboard interface of Android 11, allowing your fingers to smoothly control the rise and fall of the soft keyboard. At the same time, it also provides a breathing cursor, the cursor is no longer just flashing, but like human breathing, gradually fading in and out. Many such details, Pure Writer has polished to the extreme, while it has many writing aids, such as "automatically completing paired symbols", deleting paired symbols when pressing delete, pressing the enter key to jump out of the quotation range when completing dialogue content... Many such aids will feel timely and natural, when you compare with other editor applications, you will find Pure Writer does it better, smoother, and more meticulous.
Simplicity in Complexity
Many basic features that an editor should have, Pure Writer has not missed, such as quick input bar, multi-device cloud sync, paragraph indentation, paragraph spacing, generating beautiful long images, undo, word count, dual editor side by side, one-click format adjustment, find and replace, Markdown, computer version... and some very creative features, such as: using the TTS voice engine to read out the text you input in real time, helping you check in a different sensory way whether the input text is correct. For example, it has achieved "unlimited word count", as long as your phone's performance allows, there is no word limit. Even so, Pure Writer still maintains a minimalist design style, follows Material Design, and is both useful and beautiful.
You can reach the inspiration page at super fast speed, and you can interrupt and continue writing anytime, anywhere. Pure Writer has done all t
