Ratings and Reviews
Best story planning app
I have been looking for an app like this for a long time. Right away, you can see it has a very clear, easily navigated design and setup, not like some other story planning apps which glitch all the time and look messy. What I love the most is that it is extremely comprehensive. All the story elements that you could need have some place in here and you can create and describe them here at length, even different of magical creatures. For each character there are prompts (name, DOB, eye color, etc) to describe them but they also have some deeper ones (morals, secrets, childhood, etc) which really helped me further develop and round out my characters. Perhaps my favorite feauture, however, is the linking: for any element of the story (characters, items, settings, etc) you can link one to any another and title it (Friends, working partners, estranged siblings, etc). Then you have the option to write the POV/perspective from each linked element in regards to the link itself. That feature has been incredibly useful in pulling together my story. Finally, probably my second favorite feature is the way you can make multiple timelines (plotlines) and write, add, and arrange events in each one. Usually I would do that on paper but being able to move events around and add indefinitely is awesome.
Overall, best story planning app I have ever encountered, and I would recommend to any storyteller who needs to outline a story.
Nearly perfect
I actually love this app—it’s very intuitive and I love all the features! Now, I don’t have to use fifteen different apps for planning and writing; everything I need is all in one. The only issue I’ve had is that I wish there was a way to move around the placement of chapters. For example, while I was writing I realized that in one of my stories, chapter three would work way better as chapter two so I wanted to switch their placement in the story. It would be nice to be able to move the chapter order without having to copy paste, but I understand that may not be feasible. The only other thing I’ve noticed is the order of my stories. It would be nice to have the one I was recently working on at the top instead of the one I made first. But these are really only very small nitpicks in the grand scheme of things—more of a personal preference than anything else—and this app is really fantastic. The things I love about it far outweigh any issues I’ve found (and the two mentioned are the only issues I’ve come across). Like the fact that I can have all my planning in the same place as my writing is just awesome. I love the characters and character groups function, really makes world building so much easier.
Phenomenal for People Who Plan
This app is wonderful! I always have so many ideas all at once and no way to organize them. I can’t write without plotting first, and plotting leads to other ideas and I don’t know where to write them or how to keep organized, etc. This app was such a blessing. It came up one day when I was Googling good workspaces for authors. The price point is more than fair and well within my budget, the app is compatible across platforms (like from phone app to computer in the web browser,) and it is so very user friendly. I have had so much fun planning my stories without stress and getting to add photos of my characters, build the world, add species and items, and pretty much everything else that can go into a book. Anything that it doesn’t have as a pre-written prompt (which is few and far between) you can add manually. You can have a whole series in one project and label everything clearly. I have ADHD, and so I have trouble organizing my thoughts usually. This app really helped with that. I highly recommend this app to any future authors or anyone that wants a fun place to build a world of their own.
