Of course, your view may differ, but for the sake of this article, I am going to compare my favorites, which I would consider to be some of the best writing apps you can find in the App Store. I have tried pretty much all of these minimalistic writing apps out there (that are universal for both iPhones and iPads), and I have a few favorites that just stick with me, and that is what my comparison is going to be based on. Plain text also seems to be the preferred method for most people that write for the Web. Personally, I’ve learned to ditch the heavy word processors (like Microsoft Word and Apple’s Pages) and just go plain text – this helps me focus on the actual writing, and not worry about other unnecessary fluff and UI elements (and sometimes the most important thing you want to focus on is getting the words out). But if you are going to do a lot of writing (be it essays, long articles, blog posts, stories, notes, etc.), then you need to find something that works for you. Yes, there are a lot of options out there.

As Shawn Blanc said, “ You can’t throw a rock at the iTunes and Mac App Stores without hitting a minimalistic writing app.” As a writer here at AppAdvice, I think it’s safe to say that I’ve gone through my fair share of plain text editor apps on both the iPhone and iPad.
