![]() ![]() I especially love the ‘notes’ section where I can put a lot of cached thoughts there while working on the pages. Final draft was good but it kind of belonged to last generation and this should be the new industry standard. And it supports online and offline and collaborative modes. This app is very very intuitive and the interface is a lot more modern and easy than the old final draft. I used to be a final draft user (industry standard, sure)īut then I tried this app because my other writer friend recommended it, and I never switched back. Well done and please keep up the good work! From the tone if the developer's emails to the look of the UI, it feels like you're dealing with talented professionals. Thats just one example of how it helps make the collaboration process smoother.Ĭlass. I like how it presents any changes made by my collaborator to me in red then lets them fade to black so they integrate into the whole. Multiple modes for secure messaging, sharing notes, integrating external links for references or research, it all works.Ĭollaboration. I no longer have to worry about whos working with what version, did I email my collaborator the right file, or accidentally open an earlier saved version of a script that now has some changes in it but is missing others.Ĭommunication. But then on top of that its got a bunch of helpful features. The digital page itself feels more pulpy to me than final draft somehow, not sure why but I feel more like I am typing onto a real page. The format key commands (which mirror fdx) integrate into the on-line script is really intuitive. This is google docs for screenwriters, but its a lot more than that. Upgraded to Pro for one year, plan to go lifetime if it becomes my go to app for writing over fdx which at this point i think it will. but after a week of working with the desktop version I was sold. ![]() WriterDuet is pretty new so maybe Im just an early adopter. But I’m sure more people would subscribe if WriterDuet worked properly and users didn’t need to constantly restart WriterDuet and/or their phones in the futile hope it will make WriterDuet work. ![]() I hope it doesn’t work better for paid users than unpaid. But I’m not in a position to add another subscription right now and I sure wouldn’t pay for an app that barely works. And being a free member, I almost feel like I shouldn’t be complaining. Fingers crossed one comes soon.Įdit: I realize that WriterDuet makers are not a charity and they’re looking for revenue. I keep checking for a fix but there never is one. Frankly I’m surprised Apple allowed such a poorly-working app into WriterDuet store. And sometimes I start typing and the new letters overlap existing letters and I can’t read what I’m writing. Also about half the time, I open a script and it’s not all there. Half the time the cursor isn’t visible so you don’t know where your new text will show up. I have to close and reopen WriterDuet repeatedly to get it to let me write more than a line at a time. 90% of the times I tap on something to start writing, the top toolbar shifts up above the top of my screen so I can’t select dialog, character, etc. The one pro here is that the UX and UI are almost perfectly adapted to the desktop version - or, to be more clear, they would be if they worked properly.
