yWriter: Novel Writing

the application had shortcomings, I wrote to the developer and he very quickly sent me a new beta version. Very good attitude to the client! I hope that in the future the application will become even better! (And this app for Windows is the best application, very convenient. ) Good luck to the developer!

I knew this app in Window. And it have the same problem - the interface is not friendly. I can’t see the whole text - only a pieces.

I thought this program was going to have some features to help me write my novel. It's only feature I'd that it orders the chapters and scenes in the right order for you. Other programs do that for free. And it's suspicious to me that the only reviews available are for at least three or more years ago --what's that about in short, don't waste your money! And some of the reviews it says the cost is $4.99, but it's $14.99.

Excellent story app..

Downloaded this today based on an article recommendation. Even if it was free, I wouldn’t use it.

You have to create a new project and port in the info if your file is from 5 or less to get a 7 file to use with this app and it’s not as easy as a save file as. Also Dropbox doesn’t like to delete the lock file well which causes problems with going from app to computer. OneDrive compatibility would be nice as an option.

I had used the desktop version for years and loved it, it was easy to use, intuitive and worked like a dream....this version for iPad I can’t even figure out how to beginning writing anything other than a description. The joy of yWriter desktop version was the ease of use. I wrote a whole book using the desktop version. This iPad version....I am gonna have to stick with using Pages because I just cannot figure yWriter out.

This is the misleading and deletes your work. Further, it does not work in the manner indicated. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!

Awkward, overpriced, inferior version of the desktop version. Purchased because of good opinions I had about the desktop version, only to be utterly disappointed by what feels like a first year coding student’s attempt to produce a mobile writing software.

It just deleted my entire project all 2200+ words and notes it’s now a blank file instead of my story, and as far as I can tell no way to move the file from local storage to somewhere else to attempt some kind of recovery. Feeling really disappointed considering how much I loved the software up until now.
