## Scrivener Description
“The biggest software advance for writers since the word processor.” —Michael Marshall Smith, bestselling author

Typewriter. Ring-binder. Scrapbook. Scrivener combines all the writing tools you need to craft your first draft, from nascent notion to final full stop.

Tailor-made for creating long manuscripts, Scrivener banishes page fright by allowing you to compose your text in any order, in sections as large or small as you like. Got a great idea but don’t know where it fits? Write when inspiration strikes and find its place later. Grow your manuscript organically, idea by idea.

Whether you plan or plunge, Scrivener works your way: meticulously outline every last detail first, or hammer out a complete draft and restructure later. Or do a bit of both. All text sections in Scrivener are fully integrated with its outlining tools, so working with an overview of your manuscript is only ever a tap away, and turning Chapter Four into Chapter One is as simple as drag and drop.

Need to refer to research? In Scrivener, your background material is always at hand. Write a description based on a photograph. Reference a video or PDF. Check for consistency with an earlier chapter. On the iPad, open two documents side-by-side; on the iPhone, flip between research and writing with just two taps.

Once you’re ready to share your work with the world, simply compile everything into a single document for printing, or export to popular formats such as Word, PDF, Final Draft or plain text. You can even share using different formatting, so that you can write in your favorite font and still keep your editor happy.

## Scrivener Reviews in Australia

### ***-- "Undo/Redo"
I’ve lost hours of work due to accidentally deleting but there’s no undo/redo button. Stuck rewriting for hours, very frustrating.
-- Anonymousbigfoot, 2024-12-10

### *---- "Not user friendly"
It’s overly complicated and has a very old style UI.

Worst of all even though it’s a dedicated Apple application you have to pay for separately on both desktop and iPhone there is no way to use iCloud and sync files across devices.
-- little.known, 2024-11-27

### ***** "Fabulous"
I have been a Literature and Latte devotee since pre Scrivener days and absolutely love Scrivener iOS. I find it much more comfortable, flexible and less invasive to write on an iPad than a lap/desktop, and with Scrivener iOS I have no need for the former any more. No matter how one approaches a big project, there is a way forward with index cards, outlines, notes, folders, summaries visible in different ways and kind to those of us who think spatially. There have been comments about features lacking in the iOS version, but these are minor, and very clearly explained in Will All Desktop Features be Added to Scrivener for iOS article on the L &L knowledge base.
-- Zytglogge, 2024-02-28

### ****- "Airdrop for Syncing"
I love Scrivener! It has been a real game changer for me when it comes to organising my writing and meeting my goals! 

One of the biggest issues is the syncing between devices. I originally started using Scrivener on my PC, and when I moved my projects over to my iPad, the syncing was painstakingly difficult with Dropbox, and vice-versa when I moved the documents from my iPad to my Mac. 

BUT! A work around that I’ve found with syncing my projects from my Mac to my iPad and iPhone, is Airdrop! As long as you’re projects are saved as a Scrivener file, you can airdrop your projects from one device to another. The only downside is that there is no way to automate this. 

Overall, I’m very happy with how Scrivener has helped me become a better, more organised writer.
-- h.e.l.p.f.u.l.u.s.e.r, 2024-01-01

### **--- "App crashes on launch"
I updated to the latest version and it crashes on launch. Cool.
-- nickjbedford, 2023-09-21

### ***-- "No iCloud integration"
I quite like scrivener desktop overall, but since the iOS app will only sync with Dropbox, it really impacts the utility. I wish the devs would add the ability to store projects in iCloud rather than just on-device, since Dropbox only offers expensive, high capacity plans, and also I just don’t like their service very much, it’s bad
-- 😐😐 😐😐 😐😐, 2023-03-10

### ****- "Wish they had snapshot feature"
I understand that they can’t fit all of the UI into the iOS feature, but at the very least, I wish they can somehow utilise snapshot. It’s honestly the best feature of scrivener and it’d bring the iOS experience to a whole new level.
-- KellyBu, 2022-09-22

### *---- "Avoid"
Scrivener is great, the desktop version.  I couldn’t write without it. The app is a disaster.  It doesn’t always sync correctly and randomly wipes files.  The file is still there but all the text is gone. Not worth the risk.
-- GrumpyGuts3704, 2022-08-26
