Helpful but could be better

I love using this when working on scripts, but it gets kind of annoying that when I leave an action word it takes me all the way back the ‘A’. It’d be nice when I back out of an action word it takes me back right where I left off at.

Great app. So outdated

The app is great. It wasn’t a cheap app, if I remember correctly, but it’s so so handy. The only problem is, it’s old af!! Hasn’t been updated in 5 years?! The app bugs out every now and then. The ‘My Actions’ section doesn’t save any of ‘my actions’. It needs a fresh coat of paint for sure!!

Handy and easier than the book!

Great app. Much more convenient than the book and time saving!

Could and should be great

Such a great app... if it only worked. I try to save an action verb and it never saves the one I picked. Buggy buggy buggy

A bit limited

Can be very useful but is limited in which words it has. For example: to guilt, a word that would be very helpful to have some variety in does not even appear. For 13 dollars, you’re better off just buying the book.

So many bugs!

Please fix this app! It is a great concept, but there are so many issues! Mainly, saving actions doesn’t work at all. Also, the back arrow does nothing. .

Unexpectedly shuts down

The app always shutdowns unexpectedly...I would hope that an app that I paid 13 dollars for would work properly.
When it is working it is pretty helpful.

Great app!

Absolutely love this app and have used it for every script and acting job I have ever had. I think to improve it, it needs the definitions of words next to the synonyms because sometimes, finding the right word is difficult unless you know what you're looking for. Actioning scripts is difficult if your knowledge of words is small. Other than that, I seriously recommend.

Finally!

As a professional actor, theatre professor, monologue coach, and director I had found the book invaluable. As an avid tech head I had been awaiting this app since I bought my first iPhone and now it's here and I love it! The interface is simple in appearance and usage but that's all it needs to be. If you are an actor or an aspiring actor, do yourself and your technique a favor, get this app.

Can't scroll down...?

Great app but if the list is long I can't scroll down on the list of the words related verbs. Also when I try to favorite a word it saves the wrong one.
