Ratings and reviews

there is a lot I like about the app but the glitches while writing, especially in the mobile app, can be really disruptive. Why is every line jumping the first letter whenever I enter down and attempt to type. I love the way this operates, the way I can pull up easy notes on characters and locations, add inspiration pictures and map out plot points. For world building, I cannot say enough good things about the functionality. Just the bugs need worked out.

Doesn't live up to the hype. Cloud-based (great for those who've lost whole novels to crashed hard drives), but won't reliably sync, & reverts randomly, which I may not have noticed if not for an eidetic memory. I've had to retrieve more segments than not, which is ALARMING. No manual button to force it to save (which is ABSURD). Contacted support, they just suggested DLing backups. If it were free I'd understand, but paying $145/yr to lose my work w/o recourse? UNACCEPTABLE. Back to Scrivener.

I love this new app! It's a great on-the-go writing companion for when inspiration randomly hits. It fixes all the issues of the previous one. No lag. Auto indent works. There is now a full navigation panel available when swiping from the right edge of the screen that looks just like the desktop navigation panel. The view is simple when you are drafting, just the manuscript and keyboard, so no distractions or other things to accidentally bump. I recommend using desktop app for serious drafting.
