Great

This app is absolutely amazing! I’m not very good at writing, and my head always gets tangled in knots when I do. The first challenge I did I was nervous for some odd reason. I don’t really know why. But this app is absolutely perfect for me. Thanks for creating this!

Nice

This app reminds e to make sure I wrote daily. The only way to become a good writer is to write.

Weird

Perhaps I’m not using it correctly, but I copy and paste from another site I was writing on to continue writing on the app, to help my writers block but once I do that the screen starts becoming orange when I’m not done and I’ll lose hp or whatever that thing is.

Nice, but needs a few things.

I notice there’s a red box taking up my screen while im trying to edit a word, I get this is so you can write faster and get immersed—but it’s very inefficient and it goes off too fast. Also I’d be happy if you added a few more horror or crime prompts!

I would recommend

It’s great to get out of that funk a writer can into sometimes.

If you’re blind, don’t download this app

Although I can read all the screens that this app has and was able to enter Tex one time the app is totally not useful because it keeps on locking down the edit field so I can’t type in any text. The one thing I need to do with the app writing is not allowed because it will not unlock the field. This is very frustrating being blind. I like to do things myself in this app made things more frustrating more work and difficult.

Great app

This is a really good app and helped me loads with my writing. I liked how you had to build up your xp so you could unlock certain things because it really motivated you. It’s free, so it’s also amazing if you don’t want to pay for an app because it’s still a really good app. Would definitely recommend to all writers!

Stay away, Stay Far, Far Away

Downloaded this app. It looks good, and should be simple to use. Not so much absolutely no way to begin typing. I tried multiple ways nothing worked. It wasn’t worth the download time or not at all user friendly interface.

Great Writing Tool

This is a great creative writing tool!! The interaction between the app and user are amazing, and this really got me more into writing (which I was already very interested in), and has helped me worldbuild as well.

White Screen

It was a great app when it actually loaded.

Nice but

Okay so I LOVE the concept of this app, but the prompt of the day doesn’t seem to be working as well as the sharing function, it’s kinda annoying

..

I do not find myself using this app that often, mostly out of not "needing" to get out of a writers block very often, but every time I do, I escape it very quickly. I am pleased with the quality of the app; no issues for me, and I am able to find my work to copy over to my documents easily. I would appreciate a customization of the "timeout" period that happens when you stop writing for a bit, but otherwise, I enjoy using it :)

Doesn’t Work

I would love to try this app, however it unfortunately doesn’t seem to work for me. When I try to open the app the screen goes white and I can’t click on anything or interact in any way. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it still won’t work. Not sure what else to do. Running it on my iPhone 13 with the most up to date iOS (15.6.1)

Make it scroll

I love this app so much. The only problem I have with it is that is doesn’t scroll down when you get to the bottom of the screen. Fix this and then for sure I’ll leave 5 stars!

I love this app so much! I really enjoy writing in general so this is very fun. It has also helped me improve my writing and speed (especially for school). So what I’m trying to say is that I totally recommend this app if it’s for improvement fun or anything els! Thank you for reading my comment hand have a great mornin/day/evening/night!!!

Thank you for the awesome review!

Nice App (with issues)

First of all, I’ve been looking for a writing app like this for ages. I really like using Fighter’s Block because i find myself more motivated to write when writing is “gamified,” so I was extremely happy when I found this app on the app store. I love how increasing my “HP” is rewarding, and failing to keep typing lowers the “HP.” I also love how the app automatically autosaves my documents after each challenge section, and I really appreciate the prompt generator.

I wish I could continue to sing this app’s praises, unfortunately, there are a few issues that ruins the experience for me. First, whenever you stop typing, instead of the words fading away or some other non-intrusive notice that says “hey you should continue typing,” an opaque red fills the screen and completely obtrudes my field of vision. Plus, you can’t edit what you’ve written, you can only type. This is extremely frustrating to deal with, especially when the only reason why i stop typing in the first place is because I wanted to go back to a specific word to change a word or fix a misspelling. To add salt onto wounds, the text does not automatically move above the keyboard, which means at a certain point, you won’t be able to see what you are typing anymore. Usually this isn’t an issue, I’d just press “return” a couple of times, but again, once you stop typing, the app prevents you from editing the document or even scroll up/down.

Another problem: when you first start out, you are not allowed to choose a challenge that is more than 1-2min/75-150 words long, meaning that it gets annoying when the app constantly interrupts your writing flow when your HP is low. Of course, this acts as a great motivator to write alot and increase your HP as soon as possible, but it’s still something that was annoying. A suggestion for the developer, maybe make HP affect something else, like unlocking the option to customize your challenge(time, words, how much time you are allowed to be idle etc), customize the app UI/themes, and other features that can significantly improve the writing experience.

I still want to like this app though, and it has potential. I’m excited to see what the developer/s do next, but until some features are fixed, I doubt I’ll be using this app more than Fighter’s Block or Danger Notes.

No…

I tried this app out and it dosn’t make sense.

Pretty darn cool!

This is an awesome app! I love the concept of it and how it works!

I like this application!

This is all new territory for this man. I’ve always dabbled with writing but never took it seriously until now. I have no idea what I’m getting myself into, but I’m enjoying the learning curve. Things I never thought about before such as arrangement and so are new to me. However by reading and applying these lessons, I find that not only is it educational but also fun. I like this application.

Thank you for your review.

Best writing app ever !

It’s a bit brutal at first but when you get used to the 5 second pause limit this app becomes super fun to use and it turn writing into a game ! Its so helpful and allowed me to go from 30k words to nearly 50k in a pinch ! My brain just vomits words and well sometimes i write good stuff that i wouldnt have been able to write if i had thought about it. 10/10 would recommend !

PS : having EXP levels is fun but maybe you could add new rewards like fun badges once you’ve reached the stealth mode activation level. Just an idea ! <3
