Description

All new version, built from the ground up using Apple's standard, master-detail style for full compatibility with iOS functionality including Dark Mode.
Even if you don't own the desktop version of Save the Cat!®, you can still use this amazing tool, touted as the "secret weapon" of the working writer, to help build better, more powerful stories, with greater resonance and emotional impact.
Whenever your creative juices start flowing you'll have this revolutionary app, which is based on Blake Snyder's best-selling books and software, at your fingertips. You'll delight in the ability to structure your screenplay, teleplay, stageplay or novel the Save the Cat!® way.
By incorporating the methods, tips and tactics found in the Save the Cat!® series of books on story structure, this application will help you to:
* Develop a powerful Logline and Title
* Choose one of the 10 unique Save the Cat!® Genres
* Complete a Blake Snyder Beat Sheet (BS2) with variations for screenplays, novels, and 1/2 hour and 1 hour tv episodes.
* Use “the Board” to create cards for each scene and arrange them in the perfect order and to track character arcs and other important aspects of your story. Just long-press on a scene or other element in the Board then pick what you want to insert at that point.
* Add sequences to combine multiple scenes.
* Add labels to the Board to keep track of important points.
* Create Emotional Changes for each and every scene
* Create Set-ups and Payoffs as your protagonist progresses through the story
Sync your files across devices. This is a manual process so you're in complete control as to when you post and download your changes. Just create an account and login on all your devices. If you had a Save the Cat! account for the website or for when you purchased STC, that will not work here. You'll need to create a new account.
You can even add one or more writing partners to your project and sync your changes with them if you have the Premium or Pro level. Enter the username for their new STC account.
The free version allows you to add projects and work on your title, logline, genre, and the beat sheet. Many of the features listed below require an in-app purchase.
Essentials has all the basic functionality you need to develop a screenplay, novel, or tv episode with characters, locations set-ups, and pay-offs.
Premium adds the ability to track things or objects, and relationships. You'll also be able to develop a novel by chapters instead of using a beat sheet.
Pro adds the ability to develop an entire series of movies or novels that use all the same characters, locations, things, and relationships and to track their stories across the entire series. You can also develop an entire tv series with multiple seasons.
Other cool updates include the ability to have multiple versions of your beat sheet and multiple versions of your board for each beat sheet.
Much improved script typing. And, if you're working on a novel, just type in your manuscript with proper formatting.
All new facts section keeping track of important facts ("Bible" for tv writers) for characters, locations and other entities.
Add important elements for characters, locations and other entities that you need to track through the story. Add the character or entity to the Board and track those items through the story.
As always you can add attachments such as photos, pdf's, and other important research documents so you have everything at your fingertips.

Is there a legitimate reason for no Core i3 support?

itzagr8tday on

United States

I write on the go, so my goal was to sync my work on my mobile with my MacBook. But unfortunately ‘STC’ is unable accomplish what Final Draft does just fine. Had I known beforehand I won’t have purchased. That’s a shame.

Why no monthly subscription option or trail period to test drive the app?

Marvelous Tool!

Misha Penelope on

United States

This is the sort of application any novelist may hope for (along with the book, Saves the Cat Writes a Novel). Personally, this was the very tool I was hoping to find after reading the corresponding book! It is simple, sure, albeit this is one of those instances in which simple is all that is necessary, for such a tool will make sure all of the needed components are there, so that you can create a compelling story: how to ensure you capture & keep the attention of your readers is found within these tried-and-true blueprints. …If one is unfamiliar with story formulas, described in Saves the Cat Writes a Novel, this app may not seem helpful. Thereby it is best to either read the book first, or research what each ingredient is independently (& understand it) before proceeding to utilize this application as an outlining tool for your story. So appreciative of both of these tools; they are essential to all writers who’d like to know the winning recipe for a wonderful & impactful story. Thank you Saves the Cat team!

Between Save the Cat and Scrivener, writing would be harder.

I’m just new to this app,I have many ideas and I don’t have the money to unlock all of the features and as the other people have said,this is really good. I feel calm once I installed this app,it gives me more of a wide range of creativity as I deal upon writers block all the time. Many of my ideas from when I was young could come to life soon and I’m happy for it,I am an independent artist,could be any art as I am very creative,I will even recommend this to someone they might find it useful. 😄

Don’t waste your money on this app

Da Storyteller on

This is not a one time purchase item, you have to keep paying yearly. If this where an antivirus app or something of that kind I could understand having to renew it every year. You are only wasting your money. They don’t give you any option to buy the app out right. and if that’s not bad enough this is a weird and unorthodox method of storytelling, which is very confusing because they don’t use storytelling standards.If you wanna learn how to use this app you have to learn a completely different language in storytelling first so why bother.

Excellent for Structural Foundation, But There Are a Few Concerns

JoJo Tom 96 on

United States

While I love this app, as it makes outlining a breeze, I am confused to why there are less than 40 beat/scene cards on the Blake Snyder Save the Cat Board template. The book heavily suggests writing 40 cards. I know I can add cards wherever, but I find this part a bit confusing. It makes me concerned about the Board feature. Also, I really wish there was a printable option. It would be so nice to finish the Beat Sheet or Board and physically print the outlines to work from.

Wish I can change the font size or something on the UI

solicitoussloth on

United States

App seems great and I’m excited to utilize these great tools. Although it drives me crazy that the UI labels get cut off (in both orientations) and can get a little confusing at times. Hope they add a fix.

Genres gone

Got rid of the genre descriptions in the genre selection. Previous version had a snapshot of the thumbnail rules of any given genre
