Leave a Review WriterDuet
Great for scriptwriting
Best one on mobile, few bugs but nothing that takes away from the ease of use, definitely five stars_x_haPL_x_
The best screenwriting software out there
I used to be a final draft user (industry standard, sure)
But then I tried writerduet because my other writer friend recommended it, and I never switched back.
Writerduet is very very intuitive and the interface is a lot more modern and easy than the old final draft. And it supports online and offline and collaborative modes. Final draft was good but it kind of belonged to last generation and this should be the new industry standard.
I especially love the ‘notes’ section where I can put a lot of cached thoughts there while working on the pages. I wrote my award winning screenplay entirely on writerduet. It gives me a lot of confidence and it is very easy to use. I wouldn’t even think about using other software now when I start writing a new screenplay.
And, another major plus is their customer support. When I run into problems or questions, I email them and their response is always very quick and very effective. Kudos to their team.
If you’re a student, try it. The free version can do petty much everything you need to write a full screenplay and the writing experience is the same as the pro version but just with a promotion banner on the corner.
And if you’re serious about screenwriting, you should definitely buy the pro version. It’s a great buy. You won’t regret it.Show lessqslwd
Words can not describe how much I hate this app
Being a writer, this should never happen. I get strikes of inspiration to write a new screenplay, and I can’t because it takes forever to open a new script. By the time I get to a computer, I lose the story and I’m stuck in another writers block. Someone please fix this.Jeff11206
Keyboard issues
There’s nothing more frustrating than trying to write on this app. I’m not a huge fan of the new website updates as the portfolio itself is a pain to deal with, but it’s much more user friendly than auto correct fighting with the app. It’s just irritating when you pay one of their monthly subscriptions and the keyboard is just not functional.Show lessWalkin the dog
Many bugs in new update
Wanted to give 5 stars but the update ruined it. Page scrolling hardly works, page is half off the screen after rotating screen and back, and can’t center the text again or scroll sideways.
Also once you start typing, sometimes impossible to get out of “typing” mode. Please fix!cssummers
Needs a few things
This app is almost perfect. First it needs updated to take advantage of the iPhone X display. Also, the layout could be more mobile friendly rather than just copying the web interface. However, this apps functionality is beyond others when working with a partner and exports seamlessly to other programs. Hoping to give it 5 stars soon.Show lessVingrao
Page formatting all screwed up
I can’t use this app to write as all pages appear incredibly narrow on my iPad. I’ve tried changing document format, page settings and margins, I’ve tried deleting and reinstalling the app. This occurs with existing scripts and even if I create a new screenplay. The page width looks to be about as narrow as a phone screen.
I can’t rely on this to replace Final Draft for me if pages aren’t even the width/format of regular pages.
Also, enter/tab behavior still isn’t recognized when using an Apple Smart Keyboard. Hitting tab does nothing. This slows down writing flow.Show lessn3rfus
Great App
Makes writing easier than using a browser to access my WD account. WD is the best Screenplay app I have ever used.Griff,AUS
So much better than Writer!!
I haven’t even used it but it’s a lot like Scrivner BUT FOR FREE! I didn’t want to pay money and this is going to be perfect since I’m planning on doing Minecraft Single Roleplays, plus a book! This is gonna be the best thing I’ve ever installed!Flooffay
Simply the Best
I'm a lifetime pro member and have been for about a year and I still can't believe the depth and quality of this software even after more than a year of using the desktop version. Everything just makes sense and the feature set is richer and more consistent and dependable than FD or MovieMagic, which I used to think got a bad rap simply for not being called Final Draft. But this blows that out of the water too, both the desktop of MM, and the Final Draft desktop software and now their app as well (which they charge you separately for!).
But it makes no difference anymore, to me this is the only game in town. The support is second to none (once thought I lost something and they were on it immediately), and the probably the best thing I can say is that when you need the software and more complex features, it's all there, and when you don't need them, the software gets out of the way so you can simply write.Show lessFrank 229
