Crème de la crème

Currently *the* premium writing app that just keeps getting better and better. Well polished and responsive interface! Cloud sync is painless and just works.

A Must-Have

I have been using Atlas for a while now. Atlas is clean, intuitive, flexible, and functional. The developer offers rapid support and is incredibly responsive concerning addressing bug fixes and building out requested functionality. Thank you for this must-have app!

Surprisingly good writing app that keeps getting better!

I’ve used every premium writing app under the sun over the last decade. Ulysses, Scrivener, iA Writer, and a handful of others. For the last few years I’ve been using Obsidian with a handful of plugins, but it felt unwieldy. I jumped into Atlas on a whim because it looked clean and elegant, and had iCloud sync. But didn’t know if it would actually fit my workflows or be enjoyable to work with day in and day out. After a month of consistent use, Atlas is starting to displace Obsidian for the bulk of my writing, and the developer is adding thoughtful new features at a blistering pace. Really glad I stumbled across this app, and if you never quite clicked with Scrivener or Ulysses, this one is worth a serious look.

Thank you so much for the wonderful comments and taking the time to leave a review! One of my goals has been to make Atlas a place that someone *enjoys* working in, so hearing that is incredibly encouraging, to say the least. :) As always, if you have any problems or find a need for improvements, you can always reach out within the app or by email to support@contagious.dev!

All-In-One Writing Kit that Looks Great!

An incredibly well-thought-out tool for all types of writing projects, from ideation to publishing. The design is elegant yet functional, with nuances only fellow writers can appreciate. I have it installed on my iPhone, iPad and MacBook, but I like the iPad version best, because I can use my Apple Pencil to draw and write on it. The developer is actively updating the app, fixing bugs and adding new features, and I am already choosing this over other writing apps for long-form writing. Highly recommended.

Wow! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and it is much appreciated! If you have any problems or come across anything you'd like improved or added, please don't hesitate to reach out through the feedback option in the app or by emailing support@contagious.dev! —Dandy

Nice

The Good: Super flexible. I highly recommend the sample project to familiarize yourself with the features. The ability to open multiple documents in a continuous view is huge.

The Wishlist: Export should have an option to strip wikilinks from the file. As this is built as a project manager, the ability to setword countt goals either tied to specific files/folders or the whole workspace would be nice.

The Bad: I might just be stupid and looking in the wrong spots for it, but the lack of spellcheck is a serious issue.

Overall, a very promising piece of software.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and I appreciate your kind words! I've gone ahead and added the option to strip wikilinks during export to the roadmap and writing goals are highly requested so another thing that you can expect very soon. I also want to apologize! We recently discovered an issue that caused the spell check toggle in the main menu bar to become disconnected (so it never turned on) and have just released an update to fix that. Sorry about that trouble! I am happy to see you are enjoying Atlas and please don't hesitate to reach out through the feedback option in the app or by emailing support@contagious.dev if you come across problems or think of ways for improvement! Bests! —Dandy
