Scrivener isn’t web or cloud based so you can’t access your work from just any device. Scrivener is similar to LivingWriter in terms of features, but there are a few major differences. According to their website, it’ll be launching February 2020 Easy live collaboration with anyone you share your story with.Cloud based and autosave every keystroke.Feature dense for writing books with smart text, outline templates, story elements, etc.There’s no downloading a program, you just sign in and start The cleanest interface of all the writing apps with the most user friendly UI UX design.Export to Amazon manuscript templates, PDF, docx.Revision history saved every few 10 minutes.Auto save every keystroke to the cloud with exponential storage and backup.Live collaboration with anyone you share your story with.Pre loaded template of time tested novel writing outlines such as (Three Act Structure, 27 Beat Chapter Plotting, Dan Harmon’s Story Circle, etc) with easy guidance on how to fill them in with your ideas.The option to view all of your scenes and chapters on a “virtual corkboard”.Option to collapse sidebar for full screen view.View and edit all of your notes and descriptions on the right sidebar.This also hyperlinks the word to pull up all your notes and descriptions of the story element Smart Text recognizes your story elements and autosuggests them as you type.Detailing of story elements includes photos, description, notes, and history.Easy access, organization, and detailing of all your story elements (characters, themes, locations, etc).Drag and drop chapters and subchapters to reorganize.Sidebar separates your chapters, subchapters, and story elements.It also works very well for organizing blog posts and other types of professional or school work. LivingWriter is not tailored for screenwriting, but it’s our top pick for novels and other books.
It also tops Scrivener in its ability to live edit with other users, and it’s cloud based platform. LivingWriter made it to the top of our list because it has all the features (and more) of Scrivener with a really modern and clean user interface. It seems like they gathered all the best features of writing apps and melded them all into one.
LivingWriter is actually new to the scene. Out of all the software I reviewed, I found four that I’d recommend as well as some honorable mentions. So for that reason, there are only a few writing apps that include everything you need for writing. We realized an all-encompassing app for writers would have to be built by a writer, but the cost of development would be tens of thousands of dollars, and most writers don’t have that kind of cash lying around. With all the technology in the world, I was trying to figure out why that could be. There’s a lot on the market but it’s mostly just software with very specific features, like distraction-free writing or grammar checking. Something like a book or screenplay.įrankly, I didn’t find many that I’d recommend. We’re talking about a full circle word processor (like Google Docs) that’s tailored to writing something more than just a document. Not just something that checks your spelling, or turns off other apps to keep you focused. What I was looking for here was an app or software that helps you write. It’s a daunting process trying to separate the useful from the useless.
