Description of WordPalette

Meet your new muse. Destroy writer's block forever. Escape the beaten path and discover what you *didn't know* you wanted to say. 〰 Bypass your ego and regain your creative spark - When experiencing writer's block our own minds can be our worst enemy. - We get caught in the mud, hung up, and mope around in endless ruts, seemingly cursed by an infinite loop of inaction. - But sometimes we've just got to hit refresh, shuffle the deck, ruffle some feathers, evacuate our comfort zones, and sidestep our rituals and habits. - When songwriters get stuck -- they switch to a different instrument - WordPalette is a different instrument! 〰 Up to six sliding lanes of intelligently scrambled text - Short poetic phrases are intuitively grouped and stair-cased across the slider lanes - Each lane slides in both directions independently - The phrases are loaded from Palettes (your collected text sources) 〰 Quickly switch between keyboards - Simply tap the keyboard button, or swipe left to quickly switch between the slider lanes and the default iOS keyboard - You're not just switching between keyboards but between creative states - Many workflows are possible : - Rapid-fire between the keyboards, leveraging the "found" inspiration of the sliders with your own creative reactions. - Use the sliders to amass a collection of words that resonate with you, then switch to the default keyboard and weave them together. - For cut-up method purists: use *only* the word sliders, hunting through the lanes for the perfect compliments and juxtapositions. 〰 Import your favorite text sources and convert them into Palettes. - Palettes are converted sources of text used to populate the word sliders. - Instantly paste copied text via the Add (+) button on the Palettes page, and convert. - You can also import plain .txt files from iCloud Drive and other popular cloud services - Alternatively, enable our Share extension to send text from other apps to be converted into Palettes. 〰 Mix and match your Palettes - Activate and deactivate your collected Palettes to control what appears in the word sliders. - The word slider keyboard will only pull phrases from currently activated Palettes. - Get creative with your combinations! (i.e., text from an article on underwater birth, and an article on the predatory habits of sharks) 〰 Contact - https://wordpalette.io - dev@wordpalette.io - @wordpalettes on Twitter / Instagram ¶

  • No idea what this app actually does! 🤷‍♀️

    I downloaded this app because it looked as though it could be very useful in helping me with my writing, as I compose different text projects. However, unfortunately, I have absolutely NO idea how to use this app, or what it can actually ‘do’, what it is capable of etc, because there are absolutely NO user instructions! The sample pallet does absolutely nothing, you can’t ‘open’ it, or view it. It allowed me to import some of my own text, which it then turned into a ‘custom pallet’, but I then couldn’t ‘open’ that pallet or ‘do’ anything with that pallet either! So it is totally useless sadly! It looks as though it may have been designed to do something interesting, but anyone’s guess is good for determining exactly ‘what’ that ‘something interesting’ is! A real shame, but I had to end up deleting it, because the app doesn’t actually ‘do’ anything!

  • Great and simple, but not for beginners

    This is a really great writing app. I’ve been writing for a long time and it works for me. It has some trouble recognizing names sometimes, which is pretty annoying. It also will not correct your grammatical errors. If you don’t have a good handle on how grammar works, this is not for you. I would also like a few other features, like an ability to download and share word palettes with other users. Overall, pretty good.

  • Love it

    Great fun way to find new writing ideas, tapping to create sentences gave me so many great story plots, scenarios. Would love to see more variations in words and other little updates but other than that it’s amazing!
