iA Writer

13 years and running, reliable as a brick. You will never go back.

Great app, but oversimplification of the logo is part of an annoying trend.

I have been searching for a relatively easy and simple word processor that I could use on my iPad. I found much more, this app lets me work on multiple poems and stories during various edits, at the same time. I think this app is brilliant.

I’ve used IA Writer for years. Love it. These new AI tools… I just can’t. I’m disgusted with IA for thinking this was a good idea. You’ve lost my business. I’m uninstalling, and will not be coming back.

Love it! I've tried a bazillion text editors on multiple platforms, and this is my favourite for daily use. Clean interface, auto-fill for file names and lists, good file syncing.

… Can be better. Can you please give us the ability to select lines of text and or words and color code them? Would be super helpful. Also, margined if we eliminated markup mode and simply wrote and marked up directly and instantly in preview mode. No real need for the back and forth and split screen. The same concept of minimalism and distraction free writing applies if we could just simply write in preview mode.

I am really disappointed to learn that I have to buy the app a second time in order to use on my Mac as well. This is ridiculous given the cost of this text editor. I guess I have to go through the process of requesting a refund now. 😩

This app is so useful for writing family history and being able to work on several chapters at a time. I have been using it since before the improvements and appreciate them all. It removes all my excuses to not write! The new improvements are a wonderful addition to app! I realized I needed something like that, but never dreamed an app could do all that. I don’t know what I would do without IA writer. It keeps me going even if I don’t feel like writing! I haven’t tried all the new updates, and they sound wonderful! I have used and loved this app for so long, I don’t know what I’d do without it. I will work at trying the new updates too.

Been writing a book for awhile. I love the ease of this app. I’ve tried others this is the best.

This is a really fantastic app but it’s missing one thing: Please let me write in ‘preview’ mode. I find the markdown characters distracting and wish I could write, edit and review my text - including syntax & style check modes - with the preview mode enabled. Thanks to the devs for continuous improvement of this app, and especially for not going with a subscription model.
