FAQ

Which file types can CodePad open?

HTML, JSON, XML, YAML, JavaScript, Swift, Python, and plain text files (.txt and other text-based formats). HTML files can be previewed as rendered pages or viewed as source.

Does editing change my original file?

Yes — that's the point. CodePad opens the original file in place (not a copy), and tapping the save button writes your changes directly back to it. If you want to keep the original, duplicate it in the Files app first.

Why don't images or CSS load in my HTML preview?

iOS grants CodePad access to only the single file you picked. Resources referenced by relative paths (like ./style.css) live outside that permission, so they can't be loaded. Resources referenced by full web URLs load normally.

How do I undo changes while editing?

While in edit mode, use the undo/redo arrows in the toolbar. Tapping the X button cancels the editing session and restores the file to how it was when you started.

Is my data collected or uploaded anywhere?

No. CodePad has no analytics, no accounts, and no servers. See the privacy policy.
