Reviews: What People Think About Cool Writer

Update: iOS 11 version made my text garbled, but I fixed by resetting the line height. Hope it helps anyone not to panic about data loss.
CoolWriter is currently the best text editor for iOS, and I've been through a lot. Great alternative to the quite limited built-in Notes app. I love all the customization options and the fact I can save to my phone or run a web server with a click and host to any computer to transfer files without iTunes or Dropbox. Special sync software isn't always available but a simple web browser usually is, making this a great way to grab your files. Custom toolbars, fonts, margins, colors, and line height make it easy to read and write. A lot of apps lack the ability to set global typographic settings like this; the closest I found was WriteRoom but that seems to have been abandoned. There are a few bugs with CoolWriter regarding autocorrect when deleting, but I contacted the developer who was friendly and quick to reply. He noted he was aware of the issues and was working on them. I use this app daily and while other reviewers are right that it lacks UX polish in places, it's hard to be beat for on the go note taking on iPhone.

I use this with Scrivener on my Mac and it's the best so far - and the fourth way I have tried to accomplish an easy workflow. I don't mind that it doesn't sync the synopses. I don't even care about a fancy special background. All I wanted was italics and Palatino 14 and my chapter order to stay logical, without too much hassle when I wanted to sync. It cost me $0.99 to do unlimited RTF editing via Dropbox, but what it has saved me in terms of italicizing headaches, font fixing, title fixing (lookin' at you SimpleNote), re-stacking (IndexCard users feeling me here), or a 16-part syncing process to get around any of the previous issues was worth that $1. Whatever I do on my iPad now automatically syncs, and when I do something on my Mac, just 2 clicks and I'm ready to work on any of my files remotely via Sync w/ External Folder to Dropbox. Could be better, but you could say the same of peanut butter.

This is a great editor! I use it on my iPad 2 with a Zagg keyboard case and it's great! I really like that it can be as simple or as feature rich as I want it. That's great for writing original works like long fiction pieces. Backing up to DropBox or iCloud and being able to share over popular methods is super useful, too. In an iOS environment, your options can be very limited if your app can't access these kinds of functions.
I'd like to see the ability to add terms to the built in dictionary and an undo function. Search and replace, and automatic substitutions would be nice, but I can live without them when writing a draft and re-edit in a bigger work processor later if need be.
This is a great app to invite into your writing life!
