JotterPad - Novel, Screenplay

I have been using this app for over a month and I’m going to have to delete it. I downloaded it to write stories on. I love the dark background. I like the way it stores your documents. Trying to export them to other apps is very buggy, but I don’t blame that on JotterPad. HOWEVER, I have had several instances where I will be in a document, close it out, and when I go back in huge chunks of my writing is gone. This has cost me hours of work, as I have to go back and re-write portions of stories over and over, as the app deletes the progress when it gets closed. I’ve tried several methods of closing it out, from just swiping it away to actually backing all the way out of the document. It didn’t make a difference. And there’s no rhyme or reason to which documents get chunks removed, so I believe it’s a glitch in the app itself that’s causing it to not auto save. Very disappointing and frustrating, so it will be getting deleted as soon as I can remove my files from it.

All reviews I’ve seen are pretty good, and I can vouch for them. It’s everything you’d expect with a little bit more, but I’m having a unique problem. Sometimes the app will crash while I’m typing in a note. If I return to the note, all content I added will be wiped. Word Count: 0 Character Count: 0 You can go back to an audition named “Versions” to try and copy paste back your note. This works in theory, but I can only recover so much. Never the whole thing, if the note was big. There could be a way around this that I never found out about, or I could just be missing something, but I’m curious if anyone else has had this problem. Please fix, JotterPad! TL;DR App deletes content in notes after crashing, and I can’t fully recover the data.

I absolutely love this app. I've been using it for about six years because as a writer, I sometimes have a random burst of ideas, and it's perfect for when I'm on the train/bus. I use it for several areas: school notes, work, personal writing. The interface is simple and easy to navigate, and being able to save files to the cloud is a great feature as it ensures that I'll always be able to access that file, even if my phone breaks.
