User reviews

No longer works

I haven’t used this app in over a year. Redownloaded it and I can’t even login to my account that I have. But I can on my laptop. I wanted an on the go version instead of going on the website. I hope the bugs can be fixed so it can be useable again

Really really needs an update and some features fixed but can’t live without it

I’m afraid the developer will delete this 😭 but this place is like home now

Does not save changes - Do not use

This app will lose hours of your work. It does not support formatting changes as simple as centered text and first line indents. It incorrectly imports docx files.

Great Idea, Constant Glitches

For hours a day, both my beta readers and myself are unable to log in. It just circulates endlessly. I lost one beta reader because she tried for three days before giving up.

I’m paying for the premium subscription, and it tells me some features are blocked because I need a premium subscription.

I can’t edit my book half the time because it won’t save.

I love the features. I love the app. I am just fed up with the glitches. Constantly.
