### 4/5 — Good potential

*2024-07-08*

The UI could use some work, it doesn’t feel very modern and user friendly. But the app itself has a good concept. To bad it’s been years since anyone has last used it. And seems like the developers also stopped updating the app unfortunately

### 3/5 — Wonky interface but has potential

*2021-05-30*

It's a wonky looking interface and a bit confusing but has potential

### 5/5 — update review

*2021-04-02*

I love it too it makes me feel like a real Author 🥰😊

### 5/5 — I love it!

*2021-01-22*

I love this app but I would enjoy it having a place where we could type in questions and have them answered. I would also like a place where we can print our work. Other than that, this app is amazeballs. It has definitely released my inner writing tiger. Thank you 😊
