Appy Text for Windows 11/10

Appy Text is a new Windows Store app from the developers of the popular Appy Weather that is available for Windows 10 PCs, tablets, and phones. It acts as a modern replacement for Windows 10 Notepad in the form of a UWP app. The tool is simple in look with an uncluttered interface and decent set of features.

It sports no formatting tools like the ones you find in Microsoft Word, and so you cannot attach anything to this. It simply lets you create plain text files. When you launch Appy Text, the first thing visible on your device screen is the minimalistic visual design of the application. It features no-nonsense additions that distract you from your work. It allows you to work with multiple documents simultaneously. Each of them gets displayed in a separate tab. Once you have made additions or changes to the original files, Appy Text saves them all, automatically. You need not try saving them individually, once you have made the final changes. The app offers support for Markdown. You can use the syntax to write documents for the web and an HTML preview of it can be generated with a single hotkey if required.

One feature, I find missing in most of the text editors available today is simple word counting support. Appy Text addresses my concern. Besides, it lets you configure the number of characters per line in an attempt to improve readability. Finally, there’s support for different themes since too much of bright white background can put a strain on your eyes. Especially during nighttime. You can choose between different themes including sepia, gray and black.

In all, Appy Text comes across as a simple yet valid alternative to Windows 10 default application – Notepad. to use. Pros
