More themes please!

Since replacing my IPad I am using the app more and loving it. Particularly the terminal green feature. Would love it even more if the app had more nostalgic themes from the 80’s. To give some examples the orange letters with black background (as seen in jumping Jack flash) or the white letters with blue background (as seen in Doogie Howser, M.D.). Big nostalgia nerd.

Crashes

This app no longer works on my iPad. Mine is an iPad air two. Anytime I try to load it it immediately crashes. The app still works on my iPhone, but it’s not something I would use to type on. I am asking if knee I writer pro would work on my iPad. Or what I still have to upgrade to A more recent model?

Must Have

Great for organizing your catalog of songs to perform. Simply put I have not found better. I’d like to thank iWriter sincerely for this application for giggling Muscian’s.

Nice and simple but no Dropbox sync

Not much to say, a compact and minimalist text editor. I praise the colour schemes but syncing with Dropbox fails on me, which is a bummer. Maybe a bug I hope dev notices this

Why

I can’t use this software to open any documents on my iPad. Why?

Pretty good

Not too bad overall. It is a minimalistic editor, not only in the interface, but in most other aspects. For instance I hadn’t realized when I paid for it that it could not make any text bold, italic, underlined, etc. To me that’s pretty basic for a text app. And yes, you can change the font or the size, but only of the entire file.
These 2 things alone will keep me from using it very much at all. Wish that I had know that before purchasing it.

IWriter is a good document writer

This program is a good way to do all your word processing needs.

Works very well with Apple Pencil

This is a great app, especially if you want to write with the Apple Pencil. It recognizes my terrible handwriting easily and allows for deletions and insertions without trouble. This app is so much better than GoodNotes 5 which is little more than a primitive note pad which can only convert written-to-text with fiendish difficulty and then only in a stupid “text box”. Stick with iWriter!

Cross platform support lacking

When is Latex/Mermaid support coming to iOS?

Great little app

Just downloaded today and wrote my first letter on my iPad. Easy to use, and printing was a breeze. Have already recommended to a family member!!!! Five stars here!!!😊😊😊😊😊

It’s my best write tool.

Easy simply useful

Can’t find character count

I bought this app to replace my very old original version because that one was freezing up. I saw, on some of the examples above, that it the app shows word AND character count but I cannot find the character count and I cannot find any settings. I need the character count and it was my favorite thing about the original program.

Response from developer

Hello. You can tap on a counter to change its appearance. Also, there is list of options in the settings.

Very good

I use it all the time, it's an excellent app and the latest update adds new features without breaking many old ones. One plea would be to stop the cursor being bright pink in the "Dusk" theme

Better than I expected.

A simple program but useful and crystal clear. I like it.

The best app online

This app has helped me conquer so many blog posts and will do so for years to come.

I don’t think anything could be done to make it any better, and I truly like the app, so thanks again.

Great app

I love this app. Everything works seamlessly and consistently. You cannot go wrong here!

Great. My go-to app! (One feature missing)

3 months ago this app unusable, but I kept it because I hoped it would eventually get fixed. I had hopes that it would become my go-to writing app.

The bugs have been squashed and it works wonderfully. Simple, sleek, and almost painless.

My one gripe is one of convenience. I rely heavily on dropbox or box cloud storage, and unfortunately it is a major hang up having to pause and save and save and re-save instead of simply syncing from the external file. Maybe this isn't even up to the iwriter team, but an obstacle from the external storage provider.

That aside, great app. Highly recommended

iWriter 3.6 is live. This update contains a lot of bug fixes and improvements. If you face an app crash or find a bug, please let us know. Thanks.

For Markdown, immediately useless

iWriter claims to have markdown support, but disallows you from opening *.md files from external sources. Try iA Writer instead.

Unable to highlight

I guess this app is fine, but for editing, I need to be able to highlight, so it isn't any good for me.
