What it does
Markor is an Android text editor aimed at notes and to-do lists. Its official repository describes support for Markdown, todo.txt, and Zim-formatted text, with downloads through F-Droid and GitHub releases. Its plain-markup focus suits someone who wants readable text files and simple lists on a phone rather than a hosted workspace.
A practical use is to keep a Markdown file for a recurring topic and a separate todo.txt list for actions, editing both with the same Android app. The Markor project describes those formats as part of its note and task workflow and links to its release downloads. Because the formats are plain text, a user can choose a separate file-sync or backup process, but the repository page does not establish that one is included.
Markor is specifically described as an Android text editor, so do not infer that it supplies desktop clients or cloud synchronization. I did not install it, test its file permissions, or inspect the license file; this record makes no claim about licensing or privacy beyond the documented format-based workflow.
Strengths
- One Android editor supports both Markdown notes and todo.txt lists.

Watch out for
- Markor is an Android app; file synchronization requires a separate sync app.
Best for
