nvALT vs Letterspace

nvALT has a simple text box at the top (similar to that of a web browser) and when you start typing inside it, nvALT immediately displays a drop-down box of all the notes that contain the text you are searching for. The more you type, the more the search is narrowed down.

Has built-in support for MultiMarkdown 3.

nvALT is not only used for simple text editing but also as a powerful tool for taking notes, TODOs, phone numbers and every other piece of information that can be stored in a plain-text file.

This is because nvALT is not designed only as a tool to write text, but also as a powerful search and organize tool for plain-text files.

This was a iOS first app and that is clear. Great swipe bar interface on iOS.

Keyboard shortcuts for basic text formatting. A few theme options. Full screen mode and swipe gestures.

Features Markdown support that many other text editors don't; such as Todo's ( -[x] ) and Strikethrough.
