Customer Reviews
App doesn't work
Uhhhh. So the app crashes all the time now. I can use it for about 5 seconds before it crashes completely. I love this app on my Mac. I want it to work between all my devices, but this just isn't working. I'm very disappointed. This is my favorite app I have ever used for writing, and the fact that it doesn't work at all on my iPad or phone is very disappointing.
Will change my rating when the app works
I'm in love.
Have used on OS X for years and the iOS version is everything I expected. I've not seen any instability issues like the other reviewer using the latest iOS 5 on an iPad 2. Dropbox integration works great (if you want WriteRoom to be able to access all the files on your Dropbox, change the mount point from the default /WriteRoom, to / ).
I'm not getting any love from TextExpander on iOS 5 with an iPad 2 though, but that's not WriteRoom's issue. The TextExpander folks need to get with it and update their app to support iOS 5.
It's perfect for me.
This is my favorite and most used app.
Read the description - it's .txt only (this means no .doc or .rtf). Too bad, I'd like some rich text.. But whatever. It's probably better that it's so simple!
Sync it with notational velocity or nvalt (free OS X application) and you'll fall in love.
Stable app (for me 4s on iOS 5). Jesse has some issues with time management... Takes a long time for updates. But this app is exactly what I need and want, so despite this it still gets 5 stars.
