Outstanding

I tried this and it is amazing. It works for organizing my writing. It works for keeping track of the world of my fantasy RPG. The only problem is that I think templates should be free, or at the very least I should be able to save my own. Failing that, perhaps I could at least see what the templates are? Otherwise, a stellar app, and one I’m proud to have installed.

Would be five stars but

Would be five stars but while I’m writing the app crashes and doesn’t save losing all progress. Please fix this glitch by adding auto save or just fine out what’s making it crash.

Absolutely love

I adore this app as an organization tool, from dnd to writing, I wish it was a little less expensive for the premium but worth it and even the free version is great!
