Useless
No wonder this thing is only 5 bucks.
I bought this with fade in pro for windows so i can work on my phone while im out of the house.
Files do NOT sync not to mention typing is lagged.
Should just stick to the windows version on my computer. A waste of money.

Junk
I would write one scene each time i sat down, and recently realized it was only saving half of what i did. Complete garbage and a waste of time. So frustrating
Useless
Can’t open a document started on the desktop version, what’s the fkn point of this app ? .. Hasn’t been updated or corrected in years .. no shame .. lol
Unusable?
I’ve been using the desktop version for years i’m a huge fan of that version, but this version is nearly completely broken freezing constantly
This app is so so so so bad
This fade in app probably the worst app I’ve ever endured on iPhone. It’s buggy. The settings you press don’t work. It picks and chooses when it wants to do the operation you have. It’s shameful that I paid for this and my money was taken. Stay away.
Terrible! Avoid, stick to the desktop version
A real shame, I hoped this would be good, the desktop version is great. But it seems to be a trend that screen writing software app are garbage.
This is really laggy, it doesn’t keep up when typing, and need constant reboots to fix this for a few minutes. I wasn’t expecting it to be the same as the desktop version, but I expected it to work. I’d give it no stars if I could.

Beware - It will not save your work
Basically, if the app ever closes than anything you have written and not saved to the cloud will be lost, regardless of whether you have it set to save on your device or on the cloud. Recoveries are pointless because they only recover the version that doesn’t have any of your saved changes.
Refs pdf export
Great app but needs pdf export as it really limits the usefulness of the app.
Wont export
Wont export to dropbox or icloud or anything like it says it does! Cant export from mobil to desktop fade in either! wont make a odf either! 😡
Slow, freezes, no export
While I enjoy writing in this app because it formats things correctly, when you open it or switch to it from another app, you have to wait about 30-40 seconds before you can type, scroll, anything. There’s also no option to export to pdf (either when saving or printing!). It’s an OK app, but it needs some attention from the developer.

Just Don’t
I’ve been working with this for 11 days … I’ve lost 6 of those. It doesn’t always save your work - and, for me, the Recovery part has not worked (at all). I escalated my issues to ‘support’ - receiving one question back every 24 hrs - with no suggestion so far on how to resolve (after 4 days). If you value your work or your productivity - avoid

Clean and Consistent
For almost 8 years I have used FadeIn for Mac and for Windows both - and I think both work almost perfectly. Same for this iPad version. It works like I would expect it to work - and I am confused by some of the reviews giving this less than three stars.
All the basic functionality of the PC/Mac FadeIn is here. I use it to edit my iCloud synched scripts…then I can switch over to Mac when I want. And, if you use a Windows PC you can extend over to that as well and continue synching with iCloud for Windows.
Could it have *more* features, bells, and whistles? I guess. I am not sure what is missing that I would consider a core/needed feature. Were there bugs? I guess there were at the start, and as all these cloud options for docs came online I am sure there were real headaches.

Not intuitive
I love fade in on my Mac. But this iOS version is very disappointing. I’m stuck in a hospital & thought, I can keep working, because my script are on iCloud. But none of them will load. It claims I’m trying to import them, but no, these are native FI files that work just fine on the desktop. So I figure, ok, let’s try and create one from scratch, and not even that works. It lets me create the file, but nothing I typed shows up on the page. I tried playing with page color, in case there was a font color problem, but still a blank page. Then I go looking for a way to control the font color, and maybe it’s me, but I just can’t find it. I’ve never experienced this before, loading a writing app that literally refuses to write. Like I said, maybe I am missing something, but it really shouldn’t be this hard.

Crashes
Frequently just crashes and you lose your latest work. Nothing is saved until you exit the app manually. Now I have to save everything few minutes which kills the flow. On iPad 17.5.1.
Worst App for scripting
Sorry folks but i just don’t feel like writing down all the bull in this app. I only have two hours before work so I know I won’t be finished. 🤢🤮😡
Absolute Garbage
Won’t save to Google drive, won’t export from iCloud to anything usable. I’ve been ripped off to the tune of $8 I’d rather fritter away on a Milkshake.
Malware and vapourware kludge masquerading as an actual functional piece of screenwriting software.
I deserve my money back

Would love more export features
I want to love mobile version, but I can’t export anything outside of Fade In’s file type. I would love a pdf export option.
The PAID version Doesn’t even PRINT!
Paid for the “full version” of this App, and just like the free version, It does nothing but save your screenplay. I saw the garbage reviews of this app, and figured, well at least I can print a hard copy and then scan it to submit to be read by ANYONE, but press the “Print” button and the app crashes! Great work!! Anyone have ANY suggestions as the developer responses a generic and pretty shady…

Not Up To Standard
I really wish I could like this app because I love the computer software. It does what it’s supposed to do but just barely and not without restrictions. Used the free version and was disappointed so I paid for this version hoping it’d be better but it’s exactly the same as the free one, so I just lost that cash. Improvements to the UI to make this more like the desktop software would be a godsend. Until then I can’t recommend it when there are so many better options.

It Will Eventually Fail You
I tried to stick with it because I really love the desktop application, but wow is this app terrible. It will crash on you, it will lose your work, it will butcher saves when you try to recover work, the work you try to recover will somehow be incorrect in regard to what you wrote at various dates and times. It will fail. It did fail, and now I have to find another app that I can rely on.
