Word Count, please!!

I love doing my writing on minimal when I don’t have a computer or journal on hand. The only thing that could make it better to me is if there was a built in word count tool, as I primarily use it to write fiction.

Minimal is underrated

Im currently using the minimal app to fit my minimal iPhone customisation and it fits it perfectly. Five stars

Less is more

As its namesake proclaims the minimalist adage is appropriate as it opens on a blank page. Formatting preferences based on user’s discretion. What more can one ask for, an app with your own preferences as you like.
