Looking for a Writing App

I'm looking for a good writing app, but I have one simple requirement that has so far kept me from using most of the popular writing apps.

Basically, I hate markdown.

When writing using pretty much any word processor on my computer, be it Microsoft Word, OpenOffice Writer, or even something as simple as TextEdit, I can see the formatting as I'm typing. When I want something to be in bold or italicized, I type the keyboard shortcut or click the toolbar button, and everything after that appears bold or italicized as I type it.

I've yet to find an iPad text editor with anything but markdown formatting. I want to be able to see the formatting while editing the document. I don't even need a lot of formatting options. Just the basic bold/italic/underline.

Of course, there are other things I'd like such as cloud sync support (Dropbox is preferable but anything else would still be okay as long as I can edit offline and sync later). Basic file organization is also a plus (not as important, but I'd love folders, categories, or even tags). But other than those, I don't really need anything else. I don't need a distraction-free environment (although that wouldn't be a bad thing). I don't need tons of formatting features like Pages has.

The only non-markdown editor with sync capabilities that I've found is Evernote, but I can't edit anything offline without subscribing to premium with a monthly fee. Google Docs is great, but again, I can't edit my files offline and sync them back up later. I've been using Notebooks for iPad recently, as it is amazing in almost every way, but its markdown formatting constantly bothers me so I'm looking for alternatives.

tl;dr: I want a WYSIWYG* text editor with bold/italics/underline capabilities, offline editing with sync (Dropbox is best but I'll settle for anything), and basic organization with folders or tags.

Any ideas?

 

Wow, that's almost exactly what I wanted.

I looked into Notability before, but from what I saw of it, it seemed more like a drawing and note-taking app. I had no idea it could handle RTF too.
