Whether you are fond of writing on iPad, iPhone or Mac, Ulysses, the Apple award winner app, will never disappoint you. ![]() Let’s dive into the features of each writing app for Mac, iPad, and iPhone: Today, I am going to walk you through the best writing apps for iPad, such as: The idea of using iPad as a powerful writing tool is now taking most demanding writers by storm, especially, when they have dozens of writing apps to choose from. This is the reason why many writers today prefer or are considering using Bluetooth keyboards with their iPads. With the popularisation of Bluetooth keyboards for iPad and growing arsenal of desktop like features in iPadOS, the productivity of writers working on iOS devices has the potential of skyrocketing, mainly because it is easier to use and carry your iPad compared to a laptop. Lately though the later of the two is getting more and more attention, specifically after the announcement of iPadOS, which is Apple’s dedicated operating system for the iPad. However, given the technological advancements today, we cannot avoid the necessity of writing on smart devices such as our MacBook or the iPad. For the second problem, I have to tap the iPad screen each time I opened the menu, inconvenient for keyboard person like me.We all embrace the significance of old-school writing tools the pen and paper. The solution for the first problem is to use Apple’s Shortcut. It doesn’t have built in support to bookmark or scrape website contents (Bear has it), the keyboard shortcut for iPadOS lacks feature to focus on editor. The iOS version of iA Writer has all the great features of its Mac version. I decided to try purchasing iA Writer for iOS. that app” posts that iA Writer for iOS is a worth buy. I read from reddit and other “this app vs. I use all of Bear, iA Writer (on Mac) and iVim for a while, eliminated Bear because of its low I mentioned above, and feel that the lack of preview makes iVim lacky. I installed Goyo, vim-markdown, and Tim Pope’s essential shortcut plugins that have been accompanying my typing journey for 2 years. I configured my iVim as a Zen Writing Tool. It also supports vimrc and plugins too! This posts helps me a lot. I found iVim can edit file from other source. I thought Vim app in iOS will be limiting and can only edit the files in the app’s bundle file. iA Writer also supports opening external folder, enabling me to edit markdown file from my GitHub Gist. Mac version also has file versioning similar to Time Machine. The main takeaway is iA Writer gives the writer full control of its edited file. Other writer also stated this issue, and his post gave me the idea to check iA Writer. This issue makes me think about the continuity of this subscription. I have no option to store my notes in external folder. #File Storage #īear stores my notes in its own enclosed library. The only way to access file history in Bear is through undo. Bear lacks that feature, changes I made will replace the previous version of the file in iCloud. One thing I like from Ulysses is file versioning similar to MacOS’s Time Machine. The subscription model does not bother me, but I found several aspect to reconsider: #Backup # I feel satisfied with my three days of Bear usage. Bear itself is a good writing app, with nice clean interface design, great synchronization between MacOS and iOS (or iPadOS) platform, and just right MarkDown implementation. In the previous post, I compared Ulysses and Bear.
