About this app

Unwind is a peaceful, distraction-free writing app for poetry, journaling, stories, quotes, thoughts, reflections and emotional expression.

Use Unwind as a quiet minimalist writing app, poem writing app, journaling space, creative writing app, or gentle writer community where your words can slow down, breathe and find the right readers.

Write freely in a clean Material 3 editor made for focus. Create poems, stories, quotes and journal-style reflections, save drafts, add chapters, format text, choose post styles, add images, organize with tags, and preview ambient music while composing.

Bring your writing closer to how it feels with voice posts and smooth, scrubbable playback. Add your own voice to poems, stories or quotes so readers can listen, pause and move through your words naturally.

Create together with other writers. Invite collaborators, co-write poems and stories, receive collaboration notifications, add multiple voice notes, and arrange voices inside one shared post.

Discover fresh writing through poems, stories, quotes, writing prompts, contests, featured writers, themes, tags, moods and thoughtful posts from the community.

Join circles for deeper conversations around writing, creativity, healing and shared interests. Circle chats support meaningful discussions, pinned messages and community spaces that feel focused instead of noisy.

Connect gently with writers through follows, comments, compliments, reader love and private messages. Use DMs for thoughtful conversations, voice notes and image sharing.

Build a writer profile that feels like your own. Showcase your poems, stories, quotes, prompts, reader love, badges, profile details and insights into how your writing reaches readers.

Ratings and reviews

great app so far. I feel free to post my poetry without people I know making it awkward or anxiety inducing. I can talk to a group of people who love words, and make a portfolio. some minor issues on my pixel 10. really could be a small comparability thing because it's shifting of text when typing occasionally after backing up. it makes it unrepairable. The text is still correct in reality but the representation is skewed and when you try and fix it the skew gets worse and more extreme.

I was unable to figure out a lot about how this app works. Contests, notifications, etc. Sometimes, my notifications were all notifications, sometimes they were just messages, and I couldn't figure out how to separate messages from regular notifications. I also can't figure out how to delete my account. I didn't think much of the community either. It seems like there's very little engagement. People post their own work, but don't seem to engage much with anyone else's. Great idea though.

Such a great app! I'm a teenage poet who has been scared to share their poems. All the people that I've interacted with are very friendly and supportive. The app is also very user friendly, not difficult to use at all. The only things I don't like is that it seems like you're now unable to change our profile picture and when I go to peoples account to look at their posts the poems, stories and quotes don't separate. Overall amazing app and would differently recommend.
