## Collaborative editing in really real-time
Disroot's pads are powered by **Etherpad**. A pad is an online text that you can collaboratively edit, in real-time, directly in the web browser. Everybody's changes are instantly reflected on all screens.

Write articles, press releases, to-do lists, etc. together with your friends, fellow students or colleagues.

You don't need any account on Disroot to use this service.

You can use [**Padland**](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.mikifus.padland/) on Android to directly open or create your Disroot's pads on your Android device.
