PatchWords is a new kind of journal. Throw your words into the digital void and watch them become color coded blocks that reveal patterns of word usage. Sort your words alphabetically, by color, or in the original order you wrote them!

PatchWords is also a great way to write poetry and create art! You can export your PatchWords in high resolution to your device's built-in photo album, or email them to your friends - all without ever leaving the app.

Wonderful app

This is an awesome app!! I can't put it down! I just keep typing and typing!! It is totally worth 99 cents!!!!

Awesome App!

My friend and I both have this app, and we both love it! I was using it to journal- just getting my thoughts out. I loved seeing them turn into something so nice to look at, and I love that you can play with the word order and color order. Then, when I was talking with my friend about the app she told me that she's actually been using it to write poetry, so I tried doing that too! it's a great format for poems because you end up really appreciating each word- and somehow pairing colors with poetry seems perfect.
Great app! I would recommend to anyone! totally worth ¢99!

Functions don't work well!!

One would think you would be able to go back and modify your journal entry or fix any misspelled words....NOT! You can't even delete individual words from the entry.

The only thing you can do is change the color of the word box. As you are typing, each word is removed from your writing area and placed in the window to give it a colored background. Therefore, you aren't able to give your words any second thought because they are immediately removed from the typing window.

Developers, WHY OH WHY would you do this to the application? It makes it virtually useless for those of us who like to THINK about what we are writing and CARE about typographical errors. Why not fix this so that we can at least complete a sentence BEFORE it takes it from the writing line and places it into the color boxes?

Until this is done, I can't give this any higher rating and will tell others, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!
