Good app, but...

AnnecarolineV · 10 years ago · v3.2

This app has very interesting capacities, but there is a big saving issue. I lost parts of my work several times. Please correct this, and id happy really happy to use your app.

Bien mais à améliorer

Losilly · 10 years ago · v3.2

Bonne idée mais : pas adapté à liPhone 6, pas en français, pas de possibilité de mettre des photos perso dans vignettes rondes pour personnages et lieux.

Tut was es soll, aber...

El Broderino · 12 years ago · v2.5

...leider noch nicht auf Deutsch, was gerade bei der Art der Charaktere doch recht schwierig ist. Wenn das ergänzt wird, gibt es fünf Sterne. Ansonsten ist diese App nämlich genau das, was ich gesucht habe. Könnte höchstens noch geändert werden, dass es einen Bearbeitungs- und einen Vorschau-Modus gibt (im Moment gibts nur ersteres). Dann wärs perfekt.

Easy to use

Groepl · 12 years ago · v2.5

It helps me collecting ideas, when Im travelling. An export to PDF would be a nice extension.

Could be good but ...

Papahowi · 11 years ago · v3.0.1

... I could not found how to delete a Project. To delete is essential.

nicht zuende gedacht...

Andevine · 10 years ago · v3.1

... jetze noch einen text editor dahinter worin ma seine story anhand seiner planung schreiben könnte, dann hött ma das fast perfekte schreib tool fürs ipad! super positiv: - die statistik positiv: - schöne benutzeroberfläche - deutsche überschriften (meist findet ma ja nur englischsprachige UND coole kreativapps) super negativ: - wie gehts nach dem planen weiter? is es den entwicklern zu mühsam einen kleinen editor dahinter zu legen, wo ma dann losschreiben kann? ich geh nich immer hin und her die applikationen wechseln... - ich kann die app nich wie im google playstore zurück geben, wenn sie mir nicht zusagt... also werd ich wahrscheinlich weiter suchen. danke an die entwickler für die arbeit, es is die richtige richtung :-)

Simple and Clean

Devan Gelic · 12 years ago · v2.2

This is still an ease of use app. And Ive figured out that the Scrivener and Final Draft aspects, are Project based, as a whole, exported, which suits me fine. While the individual sections, Character, Location, Scenes etc can be exported as txt or rtf, which suits me fine as well. The Icon is fixed in the latest update. Very nice! Now I just need an Object list, similar to Locations and Characters, but for weapons and or other items, handheld, wearable, or vehicles etc. And it would be great if we can add our own categories to be filled in. Example: For Characters: Name, Age, Role in Story etc, Id like to add my own set of categories, such as in the physical description section Id want it separated by body piece, Eyes: Colour? Number of? Glasses? Hair: Length, Colour, Style/Cut. Basically able to customize whats important to me. Same for Locations, the ability to add more detail, through customizable options would allow me, to describe a building in full, like say Castle In the Sky, Where Found on Map; floats above so and so, exterior. Then Castle in the Sky Interior, Kitchen, Dungeon, or Throne Room. Describe lighting, windows if any, seating arrangements. But then there are the Macro Locations, on a Galactic,Empire,Planetary/Realm scale etc.
