Inkwell Reader is a clean, fast script reader for iPhone and iPad — built for writers, actors, directors, and crew who'd rather read their script on the device in their hand than print 120 pages. Open .ink projects from Inkwell, plus Fountain and PDF scripts from anywhere. Pages are laid out the way screenplays are meant to be read: correct margins, dual-dialogue side-by-side, scene numbers in the margin, properly placed (MORE) and (CONT'D) markers. Pinch to size, scroll smoothly, scrub through scenes with the outline drawer. KEY FEATURES · A real script reader, not a PDF viewer. Industry-standard layout for Fountain and .ink documents. PDFs open in a fast, tappable PDFKit viewer. · Scene outline drawer with one-tap jump to any heading. · Full-text search across the entire screenplay. · Files.app integration — open documents in place, no copy required. · Themes: paper, sepia, focus, midnight. Adjustable type size. · Works fully offline. Scripts live on your device. Nothing is uploaded unless you sign in to chat with Quill. QUILL (OPTIONAL) Sign in to your Inkwell account and Quill — the Inkwell screenplay assistant — rides along. Discuss characters, structure, themes, and pacing right next to the script you're reading.

More books are started than ever. More are dying at chapter seven. Usually not for lack of talent - for lack of a home. Five open tabs. Versions you can't track. The small decision you made in chapter three that has to still be true in chapter nineteen, and no way to hold it. Somewhere in there, writers lose context, momentum, and their own voice. Write in a Click is the home for authors. Your whole book lives here: the notes, the research, the chapters, the versions, the world you invented and the people in it. Planning, drafting, editing, proofing, releasing. One place, one current version, always. YOUR WHOLE BOOK, ONE PLACE - Shape your manuscript into acts and chapters, and reorder as the book changes - Add a prologue or epilogue when the story asks for one - Keep a whole shelf of books - finished, drafting, and someday - in one app - One current version. Never "final_v4_REAL.docx" again THE WORLD YOU BUILT, HELD FOR YOU - Story Hub keeps your characters, places, glossary, and world-building - The small details that keep a long story honest, always within reach - Look something up without ever leaving the page you're writing MEET ROBIN, YOUR AI CO-AUTHOR Robin reads your whole manuscript - not a snippet you pasted in, the actual book. So you never re-brief anyone. Robin remembers your characters, your plot threads, the geography of the place you made up, the reason chapter eleven had to change. That memory compounds the longer you write. Robin is a fellow writer, not a ghostwriter and not a help desk. They'll react to the argument in your kitchen chapter by name. They'll tell you when the rhetorical questions are diluting the anger. They will not hand you craft advice that could apply to any book on any shelf. Your name goes on the book. Always. That isn't a policy line - it's the whole point. YOUR VOICE STAYS YOURS AI makes everyone sound the same. We exist so you never do. - We learn how you write - your sentence rhythm, the words you reach for, the ones you never would - Pages come back sounding more like you, not less - If something sounds generic, that's a defect on our side. Not a shrug MOMENTUM YOU CAN SEE - What you wrote today, how the streak is going, what's next - Leave a note to yourself so tomorrow starts mid-sentence instead of at a blank page - Earn a little something for showing up - and spend it making the place yours WRITE ANYWHERE, EVEN OFF THE GRID - Open your book and it's already where you left it, on any device - Fully offline. Everything syncs the moment you're back - Version history remembers the draft you had second thoughts about WHEN THE BOOK IS DONE - Proofing and reader-facing checks are right there, not in another program - Export to EPUB, PDF, or DOCX - Finishing shouldn't mean exporting your life into four other tools Together it replaces a $50-to-$150-a-month stack you were holding together by hand. While we're here: the click is the friction we remove, not the writing. One workspace instead of five tabs. One click between you and writing - not one click instead of writing. We measure one thing: finished books. Not word counts. Whether the draft in your drawer becomes a book with your name on it, in your voice. Your story deserves a home. Come in and start writing.
