Instant Disappointment

For the price, I expected something amazing.

So disappointed.

First, the cloud sync doesn't. Second, the font settings in the editor do nothing. Third, selecting the option to change the default font results in an instant crash.

Primitive. A total let down. There are better apps out there at a fraction of the price.

These issues apply to v2.71 and were fixed within a few days. The current release is 3.12, so it's moved on quite a bit since this review.

Overpriced and Glitchy

Trying to work on my stories and this app continues to crash. Just got a much more reliable app for $5 less and deleting this one. If you’re going to charge this much for the app, make sure it works.

I highly recommend this app!
I’ve tried a few other writing apps, but this one, for me, is by far the best.
Writing Shed has allowed me to move out of a linear mode of writing, now I can write down ideas as they come using the unique ‘scene’ mode. As a result, I feel a lot more freedom as a writer and my creativity has been greatly enhanced.
Creating characters and locations is one of the many great features. You can also write your ideas down in the scene mode and even write different versions of the scene, so there’s a lot of room to play around in the creative space. It’s now an absolute joy to sit down and write, thanks to Writing Shed.
Also, I’ve been able to pass on suggestions and feedback directly to the developer who is extremely responsive and forthcoming, so the app is always changing and improving. It’s pretty much the perfect writing app.
For anyone who’s just starting out on a writing project, whether it be short stories, poems, a screenplay or a novel, Writing Shed is definitely for you.
