Transom Note-Taker for Writers

Notes apps can be so complicated and this one is so beautifully simple, I love it so far

I love this! It’s super easy to create notes and I like how you can categorize things by both tags and projects, it’s really helpful for me since I have many ocs and multiple stories I’m planning. One thing I’d really like to suggest is images- often i find an image that gives me an idea but since I can’t put it in transom I either have to put it in my default notes app or have it get lost in my photos. There’s two bugs I also noticed, sometimes while writing a note my app crashes and if it didn’t autosave all of it I have to rewrite part of the note. Also pressing and holding on a tag in the tags page the app immediately crashes. I use an ipad on the latest version! I really hope the developers see this :)

Writing is hard, but keeping my thoughts together for stories and projects is harder. With Transom I have a free space to keep my writing without it getting mixed with my grocery lists and the name of the new restaurant I need to check out. Transom gives me space and an app to focus on my ideas and my craft. LOVE the new writing reminder too.

Our brains need a download. We need to clear our heads. It is the healthy thing to do. To think again. to9 activate our psyche. Change the vibration back to the natural earth frequency. There is a natural prescription and that’s why it’s so important for me to write....because I have the secret and I show you in a alchemical, metaphysical way, when you’re chosen. And that’s what this creator of the app Transom has done...;given us a platform to create, so for that I will be forever grateful. As you have changed my life. I know that as I begin to write. I’m not sure if I will need an editor, or self publish, or if I will be asked. A long term goal for me would be to start a publishing company, to inspire aspiring authors, once that have been gifted by the spirit to take them to the next level, in the best, safest, healthies, most respectful, and trusting kind of way. 🐇. ~Alice.

Great app for writers, especially those of us who have our best thoughts just before drifting off to sleep. Can't fumble for pen and paper in the dark, but can open this app and quickly capture the thought before it's lost (because let's be real—you're not gonna remember it when you wake up). Easy to note ideas for plots, names, outlines, and even write quick snippets before they leave your brain. Tags and projects make this much handier than the generic Notes app when it comes to writing-related notes. Thank you for this great app.

This app is great! Before it came along, I had a fragments folder in Scrivener which I used whenever I got an idea about something that happens in the middle of the story and wanted to write it at that exact moment for fear of losing the inspiration for it later down the road. I still do that sometimes when I feel I need to expand on it more and add more formatting, but this is always my go to when I have the urge to write something ASAP and don't want to open a project, then go to the appropriate folder, then well you know what I mean. With this app you just press one button and boom! You're ready to write! And now all the voiceover issues are fixed so even blind and visually impaired writers can enjoy the absolute awesomeness of this app. As much as I dig this app and doubt I'll stop using it any time soon, here are a couple of suggestions that I'd kind of like to see. They aren't dealbreakers if they never get implemented, but they would certainly make me very happy. I think it would be nice if we could assign tags to certain projects. For example, I like to tag my thoughts with the characters that appear in them, and it would be pretty cool if I could assign them to the projects they belong to. Secondly, it might also be cool to set a category for each tag. For example this tag is a character, this tag is telling you what kind of thought this is, for example a story fragment which I usually use this app for or a note with a really cool detail about your dystopian world that came to you when you were trying to go to sleep last night. Speaking of night, it would be really amazing if this app had a dark mode. I find myself getting inspired late at night a lot and the brightness of the app is a bit taxing on the eyes at night. And like other people said bold and italic would be nice. If you implemented that this app would replace my Scrivener fragments folder completely. And I know that this is out of order but one more thing, can we please please please be able to filter by multiple tags, especially in the projects list? That would be incredible. With all that being said, thanks for reading my word vomit just then. I know that that was a bit much, but I had to speak up. Thanks for reading, and I hope you keep my ideas in mind.

I wrote my book with transom and it is the best.

I can neither recommend nor use a writing app where I can’t make words italic. I wanted this so be the app that would finally do what I needed and replace the insanely basic and ill-equipped Notes app so badly, but italics or possibly the most basic requirement for a dedicated writing app that exist. There is also no way I could find to put links in my text, which is not nearly the same level of deal-breaker, but still something I am unwilling to function without. The tagging system is still very nice to use, and while I would really like to be able to create sub-folders for an increased level of detail in my organizing, the tags more then make up for it. I might still use this app for taking inventory, but not as an actual writing app.

Thanks
