JotterPad

Word processing without the clutter. FREE WITH IAP | 2APPSTUDIO.COM/JOTTERPAD

JotterPad has been designed for authors, whether you’re writing a novel or a screenplay, poem or essay, with its clear, crisp layout and handy formatting tools. It’s especially handy for screenwriters, as JotterPad offers shortcuts to paste in oft repeated locations and characters, rather than having to type out each one — which can get repetitive in a rapid-fire conversation. Autofill helps the process here; an intelligent feature. There’s also a variety of screen modes for editing and reading, so you can get your screenplay in front of your crew in the format they’re used to. If a word comes to mind and you want to check its meaning, an instant dictionary search pulls up results from Wordnet, Big Word and Glosbe, a trio of dictionaries and thesauruses. That latter feature comes free, but the powerful screenplay tools have to be paid for — a not-insignificant $20.99. With your wallet firmly in your pocket, you get an uncluttered, minimalist word processor, but one that pales in comparison to Google Docs.
