So glad I found this post before purchasing. Textastic looks like a fantastic app but without the option to automatically sync changes Textastic is worthless to me. I will never ever buy a mobile application for content creation that does not support automatic sync of data. The only content app I own for which I tolerate manual sync is Good Reader. Two excellent examples of applications that sync automatically are SimpleNote and Docs ToGo. SimpleNote is the more capable as is supports automatic bi-directional sync. Documents To Go only supports automatic sync from the mobile device to the target.
