### 5/5 — 복받으세요

*2026-08-07*

이런 말 적어도 될진 모르겠지만 ai가 고수위 표현도 찰떡같이 넘어가줘서 바로 결제해부렸습니다. 지피티로는 입술 뽀뽀 적는 것도 눈치보이는데 진짜 감사합니다.

### 5/5 — 너무 좋아요...!

*2026-07-23*

취미로 글 쓰는 사람으로서 다양한 유용한 기능이 있으니까 그냥 메모장에 글 쓰는 것보다 훨씬 재밌더라고요,, 무엇보다 무료 제약 때문에 불편하고 그런 게 없어서 정말 감사히 쓰고 있습니다. 앞으로 더 유명해져서 많은 사람이 썼으면 좋겠어요!

### 5/5 — 페이지 형식

*2026-06-23*

안녕하세요 오늘 처음 이 앱을 쓰는 사람입니다.

글을 쓰고 파일로 내보낸 뒤, 종이를 뽑아서 보니까 글씨가 제가 생각했던 것 보다 크더라고요.

페이지 형식을 만든다면 이 글씨체의 크키를 알 수 있을 것 같아요.

이런 앱 만들어 주셔서 감사합니다. 앞으로도 잘 부탁드립니다.

### 5/5 — 굿

*2026-06-14*

좋습니다

### 4/5 — 잘 쓰고 있는데요

*2026-06-06*

안녕하세요. 저는 작가를 꿈꿔서 노벨라를 한 번 다운받았습니다. 진짜 잘 쓰고 있어요. 글쓰기에 너무 편한 앱이예요. 그런데 더 추가 됐으면 좋을 것 같은 점은요:복사가 잘 안 돼요. 아래 글을 복사해야 하는데 위에 글로 복사가 돼요...그리고 그 문서의 전체 글을 복사하고 싶은데 전체 복사가 없네요ㅠㅠ그래서 하나 하나 다 복사해서 해야 하는데 복사가 잘 안 돼서ㅜ 전체 복사하기 버튼이 있으면 좋겠어요.

### 4/5 — 작품 분류 | 아이패드

*2026-05-06*

작품을 즐겨찾기 말고도 분류해서 정리하고 싶어요. 관련 업데이트 희망합니다. 그리고 아이패드로 하면 드로그를 할 때 불편해요. 현재까지는 제가 사용한 앱 중에서 가장 좋아요.

### 5/5 — 다좋은데 비밀번호를 못 거는게

*2026-04-30*

비번 못거는게 좀 불안해요 집에 손님이 왔을때 함부로 볼까봐 비번을 걸고 싶은데 모바일은 아이폰 자체 락이 되니까 괜찮지만 pc버전은 로그인이 되어 있으면 막을 수 있는게 없네요 피드백 기다리고 있겠습니다

### 2/5 — 애플 로그인이 안돼요

*2026-04-19*

Apple로 로그인으로 가입한 계정인데, 갑자기 로그아웃된 후 다시 로그인할 수 없습니다.

앱에서는 Apple 로그인 버튼을 눌러도 반응이 없고,  
웹에서는 Apple 로그인 시도 시 “이미 동일한 이메일로 가입된 계정이 있습니다”라는 메시지가 뜹니다.

기존 계정에 접근할 수 있도록 Apple 로그인 연동 상태를 확인 및 복구 부탁드립니다.

계속 챗지피티의 도움을 받아 이것저것 해봤는데ㅠㅠ 계정 연결이 
끊겼다는 결론이 나와서, 제가 이제 할 수 있는건 끝낸 것 같아요.

### 5/5 — 정말정말 잘 쓰던 앱인데요…

*2026-04-18*

어느 날 갑자기 로그아웃 되고, 애플 로그인이 안 됩니다… 제발 살려주세요ㅜㅜ 제 글 백업 못 했단 말이에요ㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜ

### 4/5 — 로그인

*2026-04-17*

안녕하세요 4월 초부터 노벨라를 쓰고 있는 작가지망생 입니다! 제가 리뷰를 쓰게 된 이유는 딱 한 가진데 로그아웃이 자꾸 된다는 겁니다.! 다만 로그아웃이 되는 것 까진 문제가 되지 않는데, 정작 로그인을 하려고 계정을 누르고 비번을 치면, 이미 동일한 이메일로 가입된 계정이 있다면서 다른 소셜 로그인 방식이나 기존에 가입한 계정으로 로그인하라고 하더라구요ㅠㅠ 전 다른 기기로 노벨라에 가입한 적이 없는데.. 이 점 고쳐주시면 안될까요..! 제 쓰던 작품들이 다 날라가게 생겻습니다..ㅠ
