Features & Capabilities

Writer's Companion helps authors plan novels, organize content, and stay on target with their writing goals. Projects sit at the center of the app, acting as the hub for every goal, outline, and world-building item — and you can rename a Project to fit your use (e.g., Novel, Screenplay, or D&D Campaign).

World-Building lets you create categories (like Characters or Kingdoms) and then add items to organize ideas. Attach world-building data to chapters, plan scenes using chapter outlines, and measure progress by words, hours, or pages. Plus notes, backups, a Tip of the Day, and user statistics to keep your writing organized and on track.

User Reviews

Writer's Companion is praised for strong organization, planning, and worldbuilding, with an easy-to-use interface and valuable premium tips. However, repeated issues include crashes and no auto-save, no export/download of data, and pricing limitations. Users also want more customization (sorting and per-project folders) and find the account requirement a friction point. Accessibility is a notable plus for visually impaired users.
Pros
  • Strong organization for notes, worldbuilding, characters, and outlines.
  • Keeps you on track with goals and planning.
  • Easy to navigate, organized, and quick to access ideas on the go.
  • Accessibility support (VoiceOver) for inclusive use.
  • Premium features and tips are valuable and worthwhile.
Cons
  • No export or data portability; inability to download or move projects.
  • Frequent crashes and lack of auto-save, risking lost progress.
  • Pricing model can be limiting or expensive (subscription-based with item limits).
  • Limited customization in sorting/organization (desire for custom order and per-project folders).
  • Requires creating an account to use the app.

Extremely limited amount of “items”(30) unless you signed up for a subscription… it’s be one thing if it was a one time purchase but I’m not spending $3 a month or $25 a year especially since the project I’m working on might not even last that long….

I LOVE this app, been here since the beginning. Highly recommend, however I just noticed today that I can’t pull any of my data off of this site. There really should be an option for me to download my information from her so that I can bring it to all the different areas I need it for writing. I love this app, and would love to use this while I start my writing journey, but I need to be able to get my data as well.

I tried this and it is amazing. It works for organizing my writing. It works for keeping track of the world of my fantasy RPG. The only problem is that I think templates should be free, or at the very least I should be able to save my own. Failing that, perhaps I could at least see what the templates are? Otherwise, a stellar app, and one I’m proud to have installed.
