User Reviews

Scrivener on iOS is strong for organization and on-the-go writing, with robust project structure, cross-device potential, and useful accessibility features. However, it is plagued by persistent syncing bugs (especially with Dropbox), unreliable editing/formatting on mobile, limited cloud options, and a lack of updates, which leads to data loss risks and a less than ideal mobile experience.
Pros
  • Excellent organization with binder-style folders and subfolders, keeping research, notes, and drafts in one place.
  • Mobile-friendly, writer-focused experience that’s more intuitive for on-the-go drafting than alternatives like Google Docs.
  • Corkboard and project-structure features help plan and manage long-form works.
  • Cross-device syncing between iPhone/iPad and desktop for a seamless workflow (when it works).
  • Accessibility features (e.g., VoiceOver) and overall usability for writers.
Cons
  • Persistent syncing issues with Dropbox and data loss; requires Dropbox and often conflicts between devices.
  • Mobile/iOS version is buggy for editing and formatting (formatting menus vanishing, font size controls broken, find/replace broken).
  • Limited cloud storage options; other services (OneDrive, Google Drive) are not supported or easily integrated.
  • Lack of ongoing updates and development; perceived as abandoned or not keeping pace with platform changes.
  • Corkboard and core features are often inaccessible or limited on mobile/tablet, reducing their usefulness.

I use scrivener across my MacBook, iPhone, and iPad (syncing via Dropbox). The integration is fantastic, and the features work very well across devices. Makes writing a long piece of writing infinitely easier. Takes the frustration out of organizing and re-organizing and formatting and tracking. Great app!
