Wired.com: "The biggest draw of this app is the price, though. At just $1, it’s worth having this app around for when you need it."
App Advice: "...for $0.99, Droptext is a fantastic app to have running on your iPhone or iPad."
Knowyourcell.com: "The simplicity and seamlessness of Droptext make it an essential app to own. When used in conjunction with a Bluetooth keyboard, it essentially adds another dimension to iPhone practicality, which isn't something that can be said about most new apps. Using Droptext is enjoyable and efficient -- so much so, in fact, that I used it to write this review."
CultofMac.com: "If you’re a big Dropbox user like I am, it' a great app."
Note: Droptext does not open MS Word or any format other than text files. Any plain text file will work (*.txt, *.html, *.php, *.m, etc.)
What's New in Version 1.2.1
* fixes a bug that caused a crash when accessing some settings while editing a file

waste
doesn't work offline
Adequate
It edits text. Simple, generally works ok, even displays formats that it cant edit, which is useful. However, anyone with a hierarchy in their dropbox folder is pretty much hosed, as there is no favorites or shortcuts mechanism, and the app always starts up in the root folder, not in the one you were last in.
Wonderful, except...
does not cache any notes locally. So works great when you're right by a cell tower, which most of the time I am. But when you have no data connection, you have no access to your notes. Not good.
