Nice program

Simple and easy to use. Great way to learn Haiku.

Putting the fun in functional

This app makes the poem easy to format so that the focus is on the creative message of the poem and I don’t have to worry about counting syllables. Currently, I like to see how many haikus I can write in 10 minutes since the app time marks when you finish them and that’s been super great too! I haven’t tried posting yet, but the templates promoted look cute and there’s a dark mode too, which I always appreciate. All in all, this helps me warm up for a writing day or give my brain a reset after a long doomscroll and is a great outlet both beginners and pros would find helpful and clear cut.

No longer works?

Excellent

This is an excellent app for creating standard haiku poetry. Sometimes the syllables are miscounted, but anyone can it figure out.

Love It

… though it would be amazing if I could have it share across all my devices. Still, thank you.
