Writing Tracker is a tool for keeping a complete and intelligent record of your writing projects. Whether you write novels, short stories, essays, scripts, poems, or translations, it helps you stay motivated, better understand your workflow, and reach your goals without being distracted from what really matters: your writing. The app is designed for writers, authors, screenwriters, editors, and translators who want to organize their projects without complications. It allows you to track your progress in words, scenes, chapters, pages, lines, and more, turning every big goal into a series of small daily targets to help you build a consistent and lasting writing habit. INTUITIVE AND FAST Writing Tracker is designed to be intuitive and to save you time. Check your daily goal at a glance, quickly log your writing sessions with the timer or manually, and visualize your progress with statistics, charts, and a daily goal calendar. SMART WRITING TRACKING Writing Tracker recalculates your daily goals as your project moves forward. You can set a deadline or decide how much you want to write each day to adapt the pace to your needs. You can also mark your days off so the app doesn't take them into account when calculating your goals and stats. This way, you’ll always have a realistic, flexible plan tailored to the way you write. STATISTICS THAT ACTUALLY HELP Writing Tracker’s statistics aren't just for show. They are designed to help you understand your actual pace, spot patterns, and better estimate the time your future projects will need.

Mind Exporter turns mind maps and outlines into files you can read, share, and keep in Files. Import XMind, FreeMind, OPML, and Markdown outlines. Review your import history, choose an export format, and keep every exported file organized in the Files app. Export to TXT, Markdown, Word, or Excel. When exporting to Excel, each map becomes its own worksheet and every topic is placed in the column that matches its hierarchy level. Your source files, import records, and exports stay in the app's Files folder for easy access.
