What is WhatPad?

WhatPad

WhatPad is designed to make office work easier, and it actually does a decent job at that. This software lets you write without any fuss, which is perfect for jotting down ideas when inspiration strikes.

Simple Writing Tools

Now, let’s be real—when you first open WhatPad, it might not blow you away with its looks. The interface isn't the prettiest out there. At the top, you’ll find all the tools you need, but honestly, it feels like there's room for improvement in both style and features.

Your Canvas Awaits

The main area of WhatPad is where all the magic happens. This is your canvas! You can customize your text using any font installed on your computer. Want a different color or size? You got it! Plus, there are options to arrange how paragraphs fit on your page.

Limited Functionality

But here's where things get a bit tricky: WhatPad keeps things pretty basic. There aren’t any tools to show how many characters or words you've used. Everything just piles up on that same canvas without clear pages separating them.

File Support Basics

When it comes to files, WhatPad only supports importing and exporting RTF files. And importing is pretty limited since drag-and-drop isn’t an option here; you'll have to use the built-in file explorer. If you're ready to print something out, though, you're in luck! Just connect a printer to your computer, and you're good to go.

A Mixed Bag Overall

So, what's the bottom line? While WhatPad has some good points for simple writing tasks, it's not the best choice if you're looking for more robust text editing features. With tons of lighter yet powerful alternatives out there, this app seems a bit behind when it comes to flexibility and editing options.
