I LOVE the app. It’s easy to use and navigate. I like we can take away elements while character building if they’re not valid or applicable at that point; it makes it easier for me. I also like I like how I can use it on different devices, however I wish that if I use the same google/email account that I’d see my other drafts on different devices. If I could afford a premium right now, I’d be buy it to support the developers, who’ve developed the app beautifully!

Great free writing app with some robust features and a nice UI. Subscription is not required to access the main features and there are no ads - which, in my opinion, is worth 5 stars on its own. Thank you for the great writing app. :) Update 03/2024: Custom items don't carry across templates, which is a huge pain. It's so generous with its free features that there really isn't much reason to get the pro subscription - I recommend getting a year anyway as a means of supporting the dev(s).

Easily the best story writing method I've ever tried. GDocs, paper notebooks, and Notes apps were my go to but this is so much better in comparison. Everything has its own little tab to go into and the ease of linking important things like characters to a Scene is great. I'd definitely give this app 10 stars if I could. It's almost perfect, and the only thing I can think of to make it better would be a gallery function for storing visual ideas for each character, item, location, etc.
