I have been using scrivener for a while now on my iPhone and iPad.
And I like it. It is a lot less over whelming then its desktop counterpart. I sat with my phone and wrote over five hundred words when while my other half was watching Deep Space Nine on Netflix.
I have used Scrivener for mac for going on five years now. Even I can find it difficult to get my head around. It is undoubtedly powerful but sometime feel like that power is trapped behind it’s convoluted interface. Now to be honest that most of it power is connected to that interface. I have always liked that there is more than one way to do most things and it adapts to how you want to work.
More so than say Microsoft Word. 1
The simplicity of the iOS version is staggering. It has all the powerful features I like to use but contains them in a much more simple form. It is such a joy to use.
I can see why Keith has had to take such a long time to develop it. Aside from the loss of two iOS developers it is more than worth the wait since it was first announced.
I for one cannot wait to see what Keith and the fine people at Literature and Latte do with Scrivener for mac next. It should be good.
Might to have to buy the iPad Pro 9.7” with Smart Keyboard now they finally have international layouts. Either that or the iPad Pro 12.9” with the Razer Mechanical Keyboard as it even has Backlight Keys!
