Best Script Writing App On The IPad
I love how simple and to the point everything is. I tried Final Draft (iPad) and it sucked harder than a washed up p***star tying to regain relevancy again😂 But this is by far the best script writing app there is. And not mention final draft files are 100% compatible meaning I can just carry all of those file over with no problem.Show lessArt-F1rst
I preferred v3
It feels clunky and there have been zero updates to address the issues it does have. BUT I feel it is the best app out there for writing. I use v3 for other projects I have running, and I feel that is actually is a 4/5. So a slight step backwards.NicknameJim
4 is so many steps backwards
I really wanted to like this but the ui is so terrible, it doesn’t seem to connection to Dropbox anymore (if it does, that loops back to ui because it should be readily apparent), it’s not user friendly at all, and worst of all: it deleted my work—all files are just gone. Please, for the love of all things holy, return Storyist 3 or a Storyist 5 that takes after 3. After having had recommended 3 to my writer friends and acquaintances for years, Storyist 4 is a mess and an utter disappointment.
Oh, and themes don’t work. All in all, as much as Storyist 3 was the primary reason I continued to buy ipads, Storyist 4 (as it is) is one of the worst wastes of money I ever spent.Show lessSuperZenMaster_Zenny
Developer Response
A lot has changed in iOS since the Storyist 3 days! Apple introduced the Files UI in iOS 11, and Storyist 4 (released in 2019) adopted it. The Files UI *does* support Dropbox. Just make sure you have the Dropbox app installed, then tap the More (...) button in the Storyist or Files app home screen, select Edit Sidebar, and turn on the Dropbox item in Locations. And don't worry. If you stored your files in Dropbox in Storyist 3, they're still there and will appear after you turn on Dropbox in locations. If you have other questions, please email support@storyist.com. Happy to help!
