Open Jiraiya and start writing. • A normal iPhone launch opens a blank Field Note with the cursor on the first line and the keyboard ready. • A dark bottom navigation bar and separate + button make it easy to start a new note from any section. • Large keyboard, photo, and microphone actions in the editor make it easy to choose how to capture an idea. Photo supports the library or camera. • Field Note dates, times, and cards are easier to scan, and content stays clear of the bottom navigation. • Writing prompts remain suggestions on the timeline and are no longer inserted into a new note. • The writing chart now shows characters entered instead of a negative value after deletions.

See the writing you did on Mac, on iPhone. • The Sales tab is now Dashboard. Switch between Writing and Sales performance, and choose a book and a period in Writing. • The days, time, and characters you write on Mac arrive through iCloud. iPhone is view-only, and tracking starts when you update the Mac app to 3.2. • Writing lays out the days you wrote as colored squares and shows each book's share with days, time, and characters. • Field Notes are counted separately from writing.

See the length of your writing more clearly, including Japanese text. • Books, chapters, and Field Notes now show character counts instead of word counts. • Writing session Live Activities also use character counts. • View KDP sales summaries imported on your Mac from iPhone and iPad when private iCloud sales sync is enabled on the Mac. Use the iPhone and iPad companion to collect material and reread books written on Mac. Manuscript writing, outline editing, and audio export take place in the Mac app.
