The best writing app for my needs!

I have this app synced across my laptop, ipad, and phone, and it works flawlessly. I’ve been using it for a couple years now. I have tested the other similar writing apps, and for me this one wins out & is so enjoyable to use. No entries have ever been lost for me, even though I accidentally made two logins when initially setting up, and had entries and journals on both. Online instructions helped a ton in merging the accounts, and tech support is fast, friendly, and very helpful. Could not be happier!

DO NOT BUY!

I’ve been using this app for years but over the last yeat - ever since they went to v2.0 - I’ve had nothing but problems. I run it on a new MacBook Pro, an iPhone 6 and an iPad 4. Entries take forever to sync when I write them on the iPad, but I put it down to the old hardware. But lately, I’ve entered text in the desktop version, clicked DONE and watched my text disappear. Sometimes it comes back, but lately it hasn’t.

And it seems to be getting worse - the disappearing text trick happened yesterday and then again today! I’ve contacted the Support team more than once and gotten absolutely nowhere.

I shall be migrating all my data (5 years worth!) to another app.

Data Loss & Rip Off Cost

You’ll lose entries with their syncing; support will say it’s an Apple issue. There’s no history of edits, so your data is simply gone.

You also can’t sync without paying a massive monthly charge. The monthly charge is 2x more than a their one time app charge used to be. Don’t rent your journal! Both the monthly and annual fee is way too expensive.
