## Most critical reviews (8 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Black Screen.

*2012-01-22, version 1.3*

The app opens, but only a black screen is available. I reinstalled the app twice, and it still will not work. It's a shame, seemed like it's be a great app. But I didn't pay a dollar for a black screen.

### 4/5 — Perfect for writers

*2011-08-12, version 1.2*

Simple, useful, great if your stuck on a project. Only 99 cents can't beat it.

### 4/5 — Simple but effective app for writers

*2011-06-24, version 1.01*

While the interface is simple, it doesn't need to be fancy.  And the bottom line is that this app does exactly what it supposed to do.  If you're willing to let your mind go, each short one or two sentence phrase that pops up will launch you off into a little world and get your thinking about where that story could go.  And more importantly, it gets your mind off whatever your writing for a moment.  That alone is usually enough to get my mind racing, and when I turn my attention back to my writing, I'm able to move forward - no matter how stuck I've been.  It's a simple but effective app - worth the $.99.

### 5/5 — I love this!

*2011-11-22, version 1.3*

It really helps me write. :)

### 5/5 — Super app

*2011-08-13, version 1.2*

I'm struggling threw a creative writing class and I found this app and it's really helping me get through. I'm not a writer by any means but this app is definitely improving my stories.

### 5/5 — Cool app

*2011-08-12, version 1.2*

Excellent app for .99. Other writing prompt apps are complicated and cost to much. This one is simple and effective. Good app at a good price.

### 5/5 — Great app for writers.

*2011-08-12, version 1.2*

This app is great. It's simple, quick and fast. Interesting prompts that got me thinking and writing.

### 5/5 — Very helpful!

*2011-06-23, version 1.01*

This app gives great ideas for writer's block.  Thanks, really helped me out!
