## What is Penpoint?

Minipen is the mobile companion to Penpoint, the desktop writing app where novelists write their manuscript and organize their worldbuilding in one place.

Minipen works with Penpoint on your computer and needs a Penpoint Cloud Sync account. Your story starts on the desktop app. Sync is what brings your characters, chapters, and world onto your phone, and carries your changes back again. Minipen isn't a standalone writing app; it's the on-the-go extension of the book you're already writing in Penpoint.

Once synced, take your story anywhere. Check a character's eye color before writing dialogue, read back through a chapter on the train, or jot down the idea you'll lose if you don't write it down now, then pick up right where you left off back at your desk.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Write and revise chapters and scenes, right from your phone
• Keep character profiles on hand, complete with portraits
• Track locations and props, each with their own page and image
• Jot notes and tag anything, then find it again instantly
• Check in on story arcs and character journeys between writing sessions
• Browse your whole library of books and series in one place
• And more!

Built by the solo developer behind Penpoint, a writer who wanted better tools, so he built his own.

### 5/5 — Great Writing Ecosystem

*2026-10-28*

Penpoint is the best writing ecosystem value proposition right now, and the amount of capability is constantly being improved by the developer. NO writing done in Penpoint is fed to AI like it would be in a software like Google Docs

### 5/5 — Love It!

*2026-10-28*

I’m working on two different book series at the same time. I have over 100 different characters to keep track of, along with different timelines, worlds, items, locations, and relationships. I cannot express how much PenPoint helps with that. Each character gets their own customized profile, where they are in the story, which items they have and which were discarded. Now I can develop, outline, and write the manuscripts on my MacBook, iPhone, and iPad and have it sync between devices. This app is a life saver.
