How much does Aeon Timeline 3 cost?
Aeon Timeline 3 has several in-app purchases/subscriptions, the average in-app price is USD 47.99.
While it has a bit of a learning curve, Aeon Timeline won me over for a few key reasons: 1) Robust timeline feature coupled with a narrative layout 2)Multiple flexible views of the data from timelines to relationships to mindmaps 3) Integration with Ulysses which I already used (though darn, not iOS) 4) Very affordable price for all these features 5) Read only access to files if subscription lapses 6) the “pay as you need it” model — while I get perpetual subscriptions help pay devs, sometimes you don’t need every new bell and whistle. This model allows me to keep using the software as I need it until it either ceases to work on the hardware I own or has a feature I just can’t live without.
This is incentive for both me and the devs — for me to keep using it because it has what I need and I don’t feel forced to pay, but also to the devs to keep a steady stream of features in the queue to incentivize me to pay again.
Bravo Aeon team. Keep up the good work.
Simply Overpriced
$64 to purchase and that doesn’t cover lifetime updates. Its a scam to try and trap writers into paying for trash software. Free trial doesn’t work.
please give us a BP (before present) option
One of the biggest issues I'm having with creating timelines is not being able to use BP. Some dates are just known with the BP or YA scale and having to transfer it mentally to BCE is too much when there's a lot to keep track of.
Fantastic App
Took me one day to know that this was the app for me. Has everything I need to keep my notes straight and let’s me manage my thoughts across my mobile devices and my laptop. Absolutely brilliant
Great for timelines, but also story mapping and world building!
I am really happy with this purchase. It’s just what I needed for world building and story writing. This program is feature rich and customizable, and I use it on my phone, tablet, and desktop. I am also pleased with the one-time fee model with an option to subscribe for updates at a discount after the first year. Syncing works well with Dropbox, which I prefer since I don’t have a Mac. I had no trouble with the free trial, but I started on my computer with the desktop version.
Disappointed
I tried to demo this app before buying. I downloaded it one day ago. Today, I went to try it out and it says my free trial is over and I have to buy it to use it! Won’t be using this program!
Fantastic app that complements Mac version
I’ve used timeline since version 1 and version 3 is a game changer. Incredible tool for novels, world building, and tracking plots, arcs, characters, etc.. The flexibility is unmatched and very well thought through. The UI is fantastic, intuitive, and elegant. Very i press I’ve tool!
Ummm yeah don’t download
I attempted to use the 14 day free trial and got charged 64$ a few days later. 6 days hadn’t even passed and now I can’t get a refund.
Great for Novel Writing
In the writing group, I am in; everybody seems to be talking about Aeon Timeline. So I did a little research checking reviews, especially one by an anthropologist, and concluded this was for me. I used it for an hour and am in love with it. Does it have a steep learning curve-a little? If you spent a short amount of time with it and went through its tutorial, you would be good to go.
They are subscription-based. In this case, it is not a pejorative term. Pay once, and it is yours forever. If you want to upgrade after a year, it's your choice. What more can you ask.
