Hi Jeremy Hi Jeremy I do use TWEdit. My question came from assessing whether to change to TW5 (once out of beta) on my iPad Mini. I have a large TW file (3.6mb) which is slow to save on the iPad (30 secs+) using TWC but using autosave on TW5 is quicker for a small number of changes (I am using a roughly converted version of the TWC file for tests). When asking the question I didn't realise that the short delay in closing amended TW5 tiddlers was due to the default autosave setting.
When to save is an issue for me because, since the upgrade to iOS7, TWEdit from time to time reloads the file when I return to it, losing any unsaved changes - I don't think this is a TWEdit issue because it didn't do it on iOS6 and some other apps now do this, though their much smaller file sizes makes it unimportant. I must say that I am very impressed with TW5 so far, though the conversion cost is still an issue.
