Hyperqic.ion on

Trying to organize in the app feels like scratching chalk board. This is because the organization's movement sometimes doesn't snap correctly or I have to wait like a minute for it to load. And when I have to open something up all the sudden even when I have full internet since opening takes so long it kicks me out of the app.

I want to like it, but it's unfinished.

ContortionistLanguage14 on

There's hardly any explanations for anything. Creating a new something always puts it as (for example) "New Character" even though you name them, so you have to manually find the way to change the name for the new character in the list (I mean, come on now...). This app has this AMAZING feature called "tags". It can completely transform the creative process. Problem? Once again, it's unfinished and that's unfair. I can choose from a predetermined list of TONS of occupations, but I have to manually think of... personality traits? How can you tease us with such an incredible and transformative feature to the creative writing process and then completely abandon it at its most important part? I mean, think about it. Instead of thinking about my character and having to imagine the words to describe their personality, why can't I use this awesome tags feature and scroll through a list? It's a million times easier, embraces writers by helping to form new ideas, and y'all just... kinda half did everything. I get wanting to have your app be more open so it can cater to writers of all styles, but you can't just show us a potentially brilliant feature and give us a shoddy product. I'm so disappointed. When I first saw that option of selecting from a list of predetermined items I thought I had finally found a product from someone who understands what a novelist needs... but nope.

Good concept, poor execution

thefangirlingloser on

I have to log in every time I open the app and it’s super buggy when I try to type. Sometimes entire lines of text disappear when I reopen a section I was just working on. Please make the app functional so it can be enjoyed!

Not Compatible with tablets

ManaHasu on

I love this program and I use it on desktop all the time. Writing from my phone is a pain, but I do like that I can add quick notes and ideas on the go. But I also write a lot on my tablet and this app just isn’t made for it. I hope that in the future it’ll be updated to work with tablets as well. Until then, mid app.

Difficulty logging in

Zoey Ray Dela Cruz on

I really love using this app and even use it on my computer. But recently when I had tried to use it, it refuses me to log in. I’ve tried resetting my passwords, deleting the app and redownloading, and even creating new accounts. Still, nothing seems to work. And when I try get emails sent to me, I’ll check my inbox only to have received nothing. Maybe its something wrong with my phone but I don’t know.

i wish so much that this app was better

LadySlan on

the concept is great, but the app is highly undependable because of how glitchy it is. i’ll start with the aspect that makes the app annoying: you must login every time you open it. on top of that when you are in, for some reason it doesn’t open the story aspects you select. example: i made a character tab for my mc and when i went to go back to writing the chapter, it only kept going back to the main character page. when i was finally able to get into the chapter after multiple attempts, i am now unable to write because the apps autosave feature keeps closing my keyboard. this isn’t an issue everyday, because i was able to write a decent amount yesterday without any problems. but today, the app is completely unusable. i will be seeking something more reliable unfortunately.

Want to like it, but not so much

Zhero11 on

I am new to both the software and the app so I understand learning curve. My main issue, when I want to jot down an idea that comes to me when I can’t address it due to life and want to come back to it, I want a note pad that I can just quickly get it down before losing it. In the app I can see the “notepad” but when I click it the only option is to insert a tag and jump through all these placement hoops. By the time I can get to a point to start typing my idea, I am losing or lost it. Having no option to just open a text block and brainstorm or type is not effective for me. The lack of this small but powerful feature is likely the reason I will not use app as well as likely not use campfire and just stay with office software.

mixed feelings

sammi_01 on

one of the worst apps i’ve ever used, the website is so much better. unfortunately i enjoy using campfire so i keep using the app when away from my computer…

Amazing!

Candy :> on

I don't write my chapters on this app so I can't relate to the others that have a problem with the chapters but I love planning out my books on here it makes it so easy and all the stuff I can do is amazing. It helps ideas flow through my brain and I absolutely adore this app.

Many bugs

Bsmcgruder on

While I do enjoy this app I’ll admit I don’t frequent it. It can be a bit shoddy, run a little slow as well. The current issue I am having is I can’t edit any of the attributes for characters, etc. By that I mean I attempted to edit and am unable to type anything new into the appropriate slot.
