L'hébergeur du site de Notepad++ a été corrompu, par des acteurs d'état chinois.

Notepad++ versions and update mechanisms had been compromised since June until December 2025. Please update to 8.9.1 wherever you have this tool. It's unclear what malicious versions of the tool might do. I Recommend activating incident response for affected hosts.

I am ditching my Jota text editor for Android. I love it, but hit one key or something by mistake and everything poofs, with no chance of getting back.
So...
looking for a notepad app (for Android) with the following requirements:
- No ads, preferably fully offline. (I do NOT want to sync with it)
- Ability to change text/font: Background colour, text colour, text size. Ability to change font (I use monospace exclusively)
- Preferably "quick start", just open a pad/page
- No support with buttons for markdown needed, I have that in other apps. This is a notepad only, or jotpad, if you like.
Any suggestions welcome
