Write stories together remotely using your phone or mobile device. Similar to the classic game “pass the story”, up to six collaborators take turns writing parts of a story. The player that starts is given a story prompt such as “Once Upon a Time…” they write their portion of the story which can be as long or as short as they like. When their story entry is complete, they then pass the story to the next player who continues the story and the cycle repeats until all the writers feel the story is finished. CollaborWrite can be used for both serious writers looking to create a masterpiece or even a group of friends looking for a fun party game! Features: - Choose the genre of your story using prompt bundles - Write stories with friends or ask to join other users online - Send pictures or short videos to add to the story during your turn - Save your finished story as a PDF - Share your story to the online catalog so other users can read your work

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CollaboWrite at 100% against A Lucky Fortune Cookie's 68%. CollaboWrite also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). A Lucky Fortune Cookie's advantage is ratings volume (183 vs 2) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

A Lucky Fortune Cookie holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: A Lucky Fortune Cookie has 183 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 68% of A Lucky Fortune Cookie's written reviews are positive against 100% of CollaboWrite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
