Kudos to dev-Mark. Perfect, rapid cross device sync. All the useful features: word count, etc. Will still back up multiple ways cuz glitches happen. I’m more excited about this app than a grown man should be

This app was sleek and simple to use. A dummy proof interface that I absolutely loved. Truly I cannot speak highly enough about the simplicity and usability for writers. But the caveat is it’s better for smaller projects. Not full length novels. In the beginning. As time has gone on, I simply cannot recommend it for anyone intending to write longer length material. It has progressively grown in lag time with typing since the point of about 20k words, and now at 40k I find myself incredibly frustrated as the lag seriously disrupts work flow. If this is fixed in the future, I would be happy to return. I would even happily pay for it. This is a deal breaker for someone who relies heavily on the emotional outpouring to be able to write well. Until there’s an update to address this, it’s back to Scrivener and the expensive Mac and iPhone downloads. Sigh. Edit to add: I have lost over 5k words from a writing session today because I wasn’t aware that switching from my laptop to a mobile device completely over writes the progress you have made. Words cannot express how infuriating it is to lose an entire chapter. I want to scream
