RTF Editors for iOS

I'm looking for an iOS version of TextEdit on the Mac.

I want to access or edit RTF document from macOS, iOS/iPadOS 13, or Windows on iCloud Drive. Is there such a beast that is simple and accessible?

iPad mini 4, iOS 13

TextEdit app for Monterey? I can't find the TextEdit app for Monterey, 12.4. I've used it for years on my other operating systems. Monterey offers NotePad which I think is inferior to TextEdit. Can anyone shed light on this or am I just not looking in the right place for TextEdit for Monterey? Thanks.

Transferring RTF to PC? In TextEdit I duplicate a file and save it to my desktop (for some reason my flash drive does not show up in the volume list--maybe because it's PC formatted--so I just drag it to the flash drive). The filename extension added by TextEdit is .RTFD. I thought this stood for "rich text format," that it was a Mac/PC universal format, and that it in fact originated with Microsoft Word. However, when I plug the flash drive into the PC, I see all the files on the flash drive in the volume list, i see the PDF file I created from TextEdit, but I do NOT see the .RTFD file! I plug it into the Mac, and all the files are there, including the .RTFD file. I've long known that RTF files can be funky and unreliable, but is there a way to get formatted text over to the PC?

Hmm, well I have been trying to use this app for some time.

I've tried to add an rtf document to the app in iCloud Drive and get the failed to open error message. Text Editor is on in the iCloud Drive settings and also in the app's settings. I must be overlooking something.
