Approaching perfection
Zoarr990
This app, when used on both iOS and macOS, approaches perfection as the thinking person’s writing environment. To be sure, I have a few feature requests (that the developers are aware of), and some of its capabilities are of no use to me, personally, but it’s clean, fast (iCloud sync, too), and has very few flaws. I abandoned Obsidian and access and edit the hundreds of markdown files from my ‘vault’ in iA Writer now, never missing backlinks and ‘transclusion’ and the rest, and writing a lot more. I wrote a script to copy text as LaTeX for my scientific work. I thoroughly enjoy the iA aesthetic, and love the Duo font face. The new library navigation features are a boon. And having bought my first license over ten years ago, I trust this suite will be around for as long as I’ll be writing. Forget bells and whistles; this machine kills procrastination. Thanks, developers!

Love this app - it only misses one thing
pablonp
I have been using ia Writer for already a few years in my laptop. Now I got the mobile version and works very good. I love the simplicity and the easy sync. There is however a few critical things I really miss, in both apps (mobile and stationary): 1) an outliner to help me navigate through my documents. IA writer has this option for Windows users but for some reason never implemented it for Apple users. 2) a less purist way to visualize tables and formulas. By that I mean that would very helpful to have small renders of tables to work on. Since the app is very strict on using bare text, working with tables is a headache. That’s the few reasons why I end up using IA writer only for short texts, instead of more serious writing drafts.

Thank you for your review. Outline is on our radar for this year and should be released soon. While improvements to tables are somewhat limited by the nature of Markdown itself, we’ve noted your feedback and added it to our list of feature requests.
Liquid Glass: a refreshed interface for iOS and iPadOS 26 and later, and an app icon that matches your system settings.
Document Outline: navigate your documents using Quick Search. Type to jump to any heading, filename, or text search result.
Command Palette: instant access to formatting actions, export, and authorship.
Library: hide dates and text excerpts to browse your files with a new compact layout. Favorite files are easy to spot with a star icon.
Authorship: menus show author colors so you know who contributed to the document.
