User Reviews

Users praise MyStory.today for its robust writing features and organization tools (chapters, scenes, characters, places, and widgets), smooth cross-device syncing, a strong free tier, and responsive developer support. The app is easy to use and beloved by long-time writers. However, recurring issues center on paid features gating most capabilities (covers, multi-book use) and expensive subscriptions. Data loss and reliability problems are frequently cited—autosave failures, lack of a redo button, widget glitches, and occasional deletions—along with onboarding and account/login frustrations and backup reliability.
Pros
  • Rich writing features and organization tools (chapters, scenes, characters, places, and widgets)
  • Cross-device syncing from laptop to phone and intuitive interface
  • Strong free tier and no AI in the app
  • Responsive developer support and timely bug fixes
  • Easy-to-use, writer-friendly experience
Cons
  • Premium features gated behind the Author subscription; covers and multi-book use require payment
  • Serious data loss risks: autosave failures, no redo button, and occasional deletions
  • Reliability/UI glitches: autosave erasing text, widget glitches, orientation issues
  • Onboarding and account/login frustrations; difficulty upgrading; inactivity-based account deletion
  • Backups slow or unreliable and concerns about backup reliability

The app is somewhat organized but the pictures and description are a bit misleading. It says nowhere that we’d have to pay for making more characters, more chapters, etc. All those things should be free in some way.

The issue was due to a ui quirk that caused me to toggle an archive function on accident. One pointed out I was able to re-enable the lost content.
