Constructure Screenplay Editor vs eDraft‎

A screenplay editor for your phone, and a companion to Constructure Screenwriter on the Mac. WRITE ANYWHERE Start a new script on the phone, or open any .fountain file from Files. The editor knows the standard screenplay elements and formats them as you type, so a scene written on a train is formatted like the rest of your draft. Page count matches the Mac app page for page, because both run the same pagination. READ WITHOUT TOUCHING A switch makes the whole script read-only, so you can carry the draft around and read it without a stray tap changing a word. Sun Mode turns the page black on white for reading outdoors. SYNCS WITH YOUR MAC Open a script in Constructure Screenwriter on the Mac, tap the Sync button, and scan the code. The same script opens here. Edits merge in both directions while you type, not on save. When the two copies disagree, you are asked which to keep, and you can also merge both. Nothing is silently overwritten. NO ACCOUNT There is no sign-in. Scripts are joined by a Room ID that is random and private to you, and files you open from Files stay where they are. Syncing a script passes its text through and stores it on our relay server so both devices can reach it, which is described in full in our privacy policy. Free, with no in-app purchases.

eDraft is a screenplay editor for iPhone. It formats your script as you type, so you can stay with the story. New in 2.1: Everyone gets their own note colour, notes take labels, and eDraft works better with VoiceOver and Voice Control. WRITE • Scene headings, action, characters, dialogue, parentheticals and transitions are formatted for you. • Choose the element from the bar above your script. • Accept writing suggestions as you type. In German, eDraft knows INNEN. and AUSSEN. and suggests TAG, NACHT, MORGEN, ABEND and DÄMMERUNG. • Add bold, italic, underline, strikethrough and highlights. • Switch between reading and writing with one tap. NOTES • Add notes to any passage. • Everyone whose name is on a note gets a colour of their own – on the page, in the notes sheet and in the Navigator. Choose your colour in Settings. • Give notes labels such as “Rewrite”. In the Navigator, tap a name or a label to see only the notes that match. IDEAS • Tap the microphone in the library and say what is on your mind. eDraft keeps the recording. When your iPhone supports it, eDraft also writes down the words – in German when your iPhone is German. • Say “innen Küche, Tag” and eDraft offers the scene heading INNEN. KÜCHE - TAG. • Open Ideas from the script’s menu (•••). Play the recording, then place the idea as a note, action, dialogue or new scene – at the cursor or into a scene. You can undo a placement in the open script. • Your ideas reach your Mac through iCloud. Without iCloud, they stay on your iPhone. • Ask Siri: “Add an idea in eDraft”. The shortcut is also in the Shortcuts app. FIND YOUR WAY • Use the Navigator to move between scenes, see your cast, and review notes. • Create a title page. The title stays as you type it; the PDF and print show it in capitals. REVISIONS • Mark a draft when you send your script out. From then on, an asterisk marks each line that has changed – in the PDF and in print too. ACCESSIBILITY • As you write, VoiceOver says the kind of line, such as Action or Character, and a note mark says whose note it is. • For Voice Control, buttons and rows carry the words shown on them, such as a script’s name in the library. YOUR FILES • Your scripts are files you own, on your iPhone or in iCloud Drive. • Open Final Draft (.fdx), Fountain and eDraft files from Files, Mail, Messages or AirDrop, and keep them in their own format. When you save a Final Draft file, notes by other people keep their names, and title page changes stay in the file. • Scan paper pages, or import a PDF or a photo, to turn them into a screenplay you can edit. Scene numbers are kept, and CONTINUED lines are dropped. • Page Words: an eDraft script can print (MEHR) and (FORTS.) instead of (MORE) and (CONT’D). • Choose the paper size: US Letter or A4. In Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Luxembourg, eDraft starts on A4. • Export an eDraft document, PDF, Final Draft file, Fountain, rich text or plain text, or print. PRIVATE • No account and no sign-in. • eDraft collects no data and never sends your scripts to us. Recordings and scripts stay on your devices and, if you use iCloud, in your own iCloud.
