DESIGN THE WORLD
Gather your world's mechanics, rules, atmosphere, magic, and key notes in one central location.

It's an ideal place to store ideas, books, pages, and visual materials—functioning like a story book maker with pictures, but with a focus on being a robust story editor. With everything at your fingertips, it's easier to create an entire world, and your creative process becomes more stable.

Just updated the app and almost all of my stories are gone! I had 7 or 8 or so and now they're all gone but 2. It logged me out after it updated. I've logged back in, restarted the app and the phone, nothing works. The 2 stories that are left are missing information. Thankfully I didn't use this app for actually writing the stories. Just a lot of information that I don't have anymore. I do have some of the information elsewhere. Doesn't seem like a reliable app.

I absolutely loved this app. Its user friendly, well made, and is exactly what I need for organizing my thoughts and ideas before I forget them. I would love to give five stars, however, unfortunately it keeps deleting my scenes 😔 It happened once and I was willing to write it off as a glitch and move on but then it happened 2 or 3 more times. I write them down, leave the app, and next time I go in it's deleted all the words. I can't get those back now and spent a long time writing them 😔

I really like this app, but it has room for improvement. For one, when you create a series, the characters change throughout. The goals in book 1 aren't going to be the same as in book 3. But there is no way to set new goals without creating a whole new character sheet for each book. When you have 50 characters it becomes really tedious. There is also a duplication glitch. Next, the relationship chart loads sooo sloooow. I wish there were multiple chart options so you can make family trees.
