Begeistert

Ich mag die App sehr gerne. Ich kann viel planen, kann vom Handy zum MacBook aktualisieren und sie ist super übersichtlich.
Als Anmerkung habe ich nur, dass sich mein Schreibziel leider immer wieder von alleine löscht. Ist allerdings nur eine kleine Anmerkung.

Danke für die tolle Bewertung. Darüber habe ich mich sehr gefreut! ☺️ Ich werde mir die Schreibziele mal genauer ansehen. Sollte sich nach dem nächsten App-Update nichts geändert haben, melde dich bitte einmal über das Feedback Formular in den Einstellungen der App bei mir, dann schaue ich mir an, ob es bei dir vielleicht einen konkreten Grund für dieses Problem gibt, das wir lösen können. Liebe Grüße, Annika

Sehr übersichtlich

Egal auf welchem Gerät, ich habe alles im Blick und kann schnell neue Ideen notieren.

Danke für die tolle Bewertung - das freut mich wirklich sehr! ☺️

Excited to see where it goes!

Glad I found this app :) wanted something mainly to track my novel writing. I like that it automatically calculates how many words with tou just inputting the total word count each session. The UI is easy to navigate. I love that you can upload a book cover image. I won’t use most of the story planning features but nice that they are there.

My main want is for the tracking and goals to be a little more fun and gamified. I would love to see a “At your current pace: Done by x date” and more goal related stats.

The graphics are pretty plain, I’d like to be able to change the theme or just see a more interesting look.

And the icloud notifications are constantly popping up, not sure why.

Otherwise, I’m happy with it! Excited to use it and see it get updated as the future goes on

Thank you so much for your kind review and detailed feedback! I really love your ideas for making writing goals and progress tracking more motivating, especially the estimated completion date and additional goal statistics. I’ll definitely keep these suggestions in mind for future updates. I’ll also look into the recurring iCloud notifications. Thank you for using PlotWords! :)

Durchdacht und super strukturiert!

Plotwords hat absolutes Potential Papyrus und co und den Schatten zu stellen - zumindest aus meiner Sicht. Man merkt, dass die Entwicklerin selbst Autorin ist, denn die ganzen Funktionen und die Nutzeroberfläche bietet alles was man braucht. Nicht nur zum Schreiben, sondern auch zahlreiche Plottfunktionen wie: Charakterbögen, Kapitelplottkarten, Magiesystem, Fraktionen und noch vieles mehr, bietet Plotwords einiges. Aber ohne dabei den Fokus aufs Schreiben zu verlieren. Man findet sich sehr schnell zurecht und ich bin extrem gespannt wie sich Plotwords in Zukunft noch weiterentwickelt 🙂

Danke für die lieben Worte und die tolle Rezension zu PlotWords! Das hat mich sehr gefreut ☺️

An sich perfekt ✨

Hi! Erstmal, diese App übertrifft alles, was ich bisher probiert habe. Ich hab nur eine Sache, die ich mir wünschen würde, und zwar dass man bei den Kategorien zum weltenbau genau so auch Ordner machen kann wie bei den Orten, das würde bei mir einiges ein bisschen leichter machen ^^ ich wünsch dir noch einen schönen Tag ✨
