Still worth it

I really, really love the syntax features, the ability to see how many messy adverbs and whatnot I use in the course of writing a story is invaluable.

For this version: it’s nice, the UI is a little more streamlined, for better or for worse; I kind of wish there was a UI-enabled way to switch between note, write, etc., but no biggie.

Like other reviewers, I wish there was a little more logical fleshing-out of the workflow features, but if you can get yourself psychologically in the mindset (“Okay, now I am going to edit!” or “No pressure here, it’s just notes”), it’s alright. I think, (if any developer is reading this), the best thing that could happen with Writer Pro would be a little more simplification; the Workflow feature runs the risk of getting in the way of the actual workflow of writing, (depending on how it’s developed in future versions, this does NOT exist in the current iteration) by virtue of complexity, if it can be honed, however, this can only improve the worth of the app.

The Handoff features between this and an iOS device are awesome, and I find myself using them quite a lot, so that’s good.

All in all, I still have a fondness for this app, and would recommend it :)
