I love this site, super cool! But I spent about half an hour writing details for the first character I wanted to add… only to not be able to. There is no button to ‘create character’ on mobile, even though it lets you fill in the details for one. Or at least, the button isn’t showing up. I tapped everything on screen before eventually resorting to the ‘X’ and praying it would save. It didn’t. So now I’m irritated, even though this app seems really promising! I hope a solution to this issue is found soon.

I have to gush about this because I’m honestly blown away. I've been using the web based program for the last month and it's amazing! I'm thrilled to see the founder finally created an app! On the topic of the founder, you can tell he actually cares about writers. He listens to feedback, implements suggestions, and isn’t just trying to get rich quick. That alone already sets it apart.But the program itself? Seriously impressive.There’s a consistency guardian that catches things I would’ve missed completely, a World Codex that updates itself as you write, and a ton of thoughtful tools woven in. They even give you a built‑in author website and are super transparent about how their AI works. And don’t worry—there are no features that write for you. It’s just grammar and spell checking plus smart analysis that helps you keep your story clean and coherent.If you’re an author of any kind—new, experienced, indie, trad—this is worth trying. I’m honestly obsessed.

I’ve tried all the different software platforms for writing including Scrivener, LivingWriter, Campfire, Storyist Plottr and more. While many have great features and do one thing really well, none of them do it all like Novelium. Here’s what makes it the absolute best—simple to use and understand, an amazing automatic world codex, constant backups, story arc tracking and smart conflict assessment. I can’t say enough about how great the automatic world codex is- drawing out your characters, locations, rules, objects/items etc. It then combines this with a strong conflict assessment that warns you if you have inconsistencies in your chapters. It’s really comprehensive, for example—it caught conflicts in a combat sequence between prior rules and the action events described. Lastly and most importantly, the dev team is super responsive and helpful. I asked some questions about backups and literally overnight they upgraded the backups to a really robust system that syncs across desktop, mobile, iPad, web etc. No weird backups or manually saving files etc (although you can if that’s your thing). This is a robust, smart, comprehensive set of writing tools, designed by people who understand writing and finally created something to provide you deep support but never getting in the way of creativity.

All the months I wasted writing everything down in different organizing documents, now I can write everything down without having to worry. Novelium organizes every detail and keeps track of things so I don’t make any mistakes. It’s a lifesaver and I have no idea why it has 3 stars! It’s such an amazing app between the world codex, the corkboard and everything that I really don’t mind spending 19$ a month to have access to all its features! It keeps me focused with my writing and it’s so incredible to see the world I’m writing being built in the codex that it’s like an addiction. Keeping me interested in continuing to put my words down. I might finally get my first draft done! Thanks Novelium!
