Exceptional

I LOVE THIS APP! As an unapologetic pantser, this app helps me organize my deeply layered chaos. The honeymoon period is not over, but I have not walked away unhappy or frustrated. I feel empowered and in control, not overwhelmed and mentally exhausted. When it comes to those fancy apps, I use 10% of them, never making it worth the cost. Story Planner is fun, user-friendly, and helps me to be as thorough as I want to be without getting in the way of the creative process!

Several years in

I’ve been using this app to write my three stories and it is THE must have writing app on the platform. I’ve tried other writing apps and they are either limited or require payments.

Only problem I’ve had is that I can no longer sync progress I’ve made using my phone to my Mac, even though it synced before.

Easy to use and effective

Never had a crash or anything either.

Long time user

Story Planner is my go-to app for planning stories and idea capture. I deeply appreciate the clear interface and ease of use. The tagging system has become a favorite feature for me and has helped me cross reference ideas and plot through lines.

Parfait mais où est la recherche ?

Application très intéressante mais la recherche est indigente car limitée aux sujets et aux onglets mais sans définir les emplacements. On peut donc pas chercher un mot dans ce qui est rédigé, il manque une recherche générale c’est évident.
Comment avoir un accès rapide à une description ou à une ligne particulière ?
Bravo pour votre application mais là c’est vraiment regrettable.

Response from developer

Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire et vos retours. Nous sommes ravis que l’application vous plaise et nous sommes désolés que vous rencontriez des difficultés avec la recherche dans le texte. Actuellement, il existe déjà un moyen de rechercher dans le texte si vous utilisez un clavier externe : il vous suffit d'appuyer sur Cmd + F pour ouvrir la barre de recherche. Cependant, il est vrai que cette fonction est inaccessible sans clavier externe. Nous nous sommes donc mis au travail et tout est prêt pour la prochaine mise à jour, dans laquelle vous trouverez un bouton de recherche directement sur la barre du clavier à l'écran. Nous espérons que l’application vous sera encore plus utile désormais. Pour toute autre question ou suggestion, n'hésitez pas à nous écrire à support@storyplanner.app. Nous sommes une petite équipe de développeurs indépendants et nous travaillons sans relâche pour améliorer l'application ; recevoir des commentaires comme le vôtre nous aide énormément.
