Doesn’t work and also too hard to understand even use

I saw this app, I was happy about it because it will do a better job of fully pasting story for my stories. It we do it all but it doesn’t. It just comes out without editing and fomat

Nothing but Frustration

Truly terrible.
Downloaded and paid for this to take my project with me on holidays and it has been such a struggle to get the project to sync. I had to duplicate my project in scrivener and clear out anything that wasn’t my chapters to make it work with this app and now i can’t get that work OFF of this app. I hate it. Not worth the $12 I paid for it.

Scrivo 3/iPadOS 18.4.1

Hey guys, ladies, gentries or what’eves… Just so you know; I love making use of your app(without onboard AI activated). And might it help that love to prolong; since the OS update mentioned in tittle: Scrivo 3 has been crashing on first paste from system clipboard, to reboot with all that was entered prior to paste voided. Hope Ya’ll configure an update soon as we all love that smooth operator feeling;o)

mac上的文件一打开就崩溃

手机上一打开就奔溃 害得我只能把内容一个一个复制到新的文件里

I just wasted my money.

I followed the instructions but I cannot get my Scrivener file to sync. It’s greyed out like its not even an option. The interface is not very user friendly. Also, the AI writing assistant that is advertised as included is actually an extra $1.99 per week which I think is very misleading.

Not sure of the benefits of this app

I purchased this app hoping it might assist me in my writing profession but it is a rather complicated and convoluted app. I’m not really certain what the end goal was for the app creators.

It definitely has potential but it is rather cryptic without a smooth and easy to follow user experience

Funktioniert nicht

Stürzt sofort ab beim starten der App. iPad Mini 6 mit dem neusten iOS. Bitte den Fehler beheben. ( 8.Nov. 23 ) Auch das Heutige (14. Nov.2023) Update bring keine Besserung. Sofortiger Absturz. Auch auf iPad Pro

UPDATE: Nach einem erzwungenen Neustart meines IPads funktioniert die App! Deswegen sorry für die obere negative Bewertung.
Hätte ich auch eher drauf kommen können. 😏
Jetzt ist alles Prima.👍

Crashes immediately after opening

I downloaded it to my iPad and iPhone and neither work. $3.50 and nothing. Huge disappointment.

Won’t even open

I’ve only ever used this app on my phone before for several years now. It’s okay there. I am just now trying it on my iPad, and the app won’t even open. I get the white screen with the “S” in it for a few seconds, maybe a minute, and then it crashes.

On my phone, I’ve never had this issue, but even there I wouldn’t say it’s the best. It’s a bit of a disappointment tbh. There’s got to be better apps out there for iPad/iPhone. Scrivener on the desktop is the best. Still looking for a mobile program…

Love it because…

You can store in RTF and other formats. Brilliant! So sick of being tied into an app. Thanks!

Support eher träge

Nach dem Bug mit den in App Käufen trotz Erwerb der Vollversion bleibt ein fader Beigeschmack. Support geht anders. Es wird auf Anfragen selten bis nicht reagiert. So kann man keinen Service aufbauen.
Schade für das investierte Geld. Bis jetzt Fehlinvestition.

Won’t import Scrivener files

This app won’t do the one thing I bought it for. It doesn’t recognize or open scrivener files. Complete waste of money and time.

Using with Scrivener/Dropbox…

So.. I bought this on a whim hoping that I could use it with my existing Scrivener projects which is says it supports. I got it to eventually sync even though it takes about 10x longer than Scrivener does. But the resulting project structure does not reflect anything close to my project within Scrivener (on the iPad). I’ve got a neat and tidy structure for one of my projects but in this app the layout is not close to what I see in Scrivener for whatever reason. Maybe I’ll check back in a few versions or something.. For now it’s not usable for me.

Edit : 2 hours later. I tried this on my iPhone and let the initial sync run for probably a half hour.. it did eventually finish. The structure was initially the same as described above but I synced again and let it finish which probably took closer to 45 seconds and then the structure was fine and worked as I was hoping it would .. it’s got some odd behaviors in the editor that are a little frustrating..

Yes, syncs are slower than scrivener but do seem to work ok. I’ve gone back and forth between the two apps and no issues so far..

Call me happy!

Great app but I wish it synced.

I love this app been using it for quite sometime on my iPad however it doesn’t sync 😐 the documents on my iPad doesn’t show on my phone. I’m concerned if I upgrade my iPad I’ll lose my stuff. Can someone help ?

이거 스크리브너 짭입니다.

이 앱이랑 스크리브너3랑 연동 된다고 생각해서 다운 받았는데 전혀 안 되구요. 영문으로 이루어져 있어서 사용이 난감하네요.

READ ONLY if you use tables!

Not impressed. Apparently if your Scrivener projects use tables (as mine do), Scrivo Pro CANNOT EDIT! So until they make changes if your document uses tables you can only look at your projects. 😒

Cheaper price, same function

Title says it all. This is exactly like another program but way cheaper. I was on the fence about trying a different, more expensive software and found this. It was a little different, but it worked. Something broke, but updates have since then fixed that issue. I love it!

Not compatible with iOS version of Scrivener

Actually, I’m not sure it’s compatible with any version of Scrivener. Basically, you get empty projects both ways. If it worked it would be nice, since Scrivener for iOS doesn’t support tables.

THIS IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH SCRIVENER!!!

After reading many of the reviews, it’s apparent that this developer is putting Scrivener in the app’s title to poach people looking for the Scrivener iOS client. I, and it seems that many others in the reviews, fell for this.

I found this app to be useless for me, since I was looking for a way to work on my Scrivener projects on my iPad.

Scrivener does have an app on the App Store, but this isn’t it.
