As you write, your words flow automatically into the 5-7-5 structure, with a live syllable counter guiding you line by line. If the app's guess about a word's syllable count doesn't match how you say it, just tap the word to correct it. Once you've finished a poem that fits the form, save it to your personal journal — a private collection of everything you've written, kept only on your device.
