First Impressions and Overall Experience
After using iA Writer for the first time on my iPad, I’m genuinely impressed by what this app has to offer. Coming from someone who’s covered productivity software on my site randyhanley.com, and my randyhanley YouTube Channel, I can confidently say iA Writer holds its own as a sleek, focused writing tool designed to keep distractions at bay and creativity flowing.
Seamless iCloud File Integration
At first glance, what stands out is iA Writer’s beautifully minimal interface that keeps the focus on words. But beyond that, the deep integration with iCloud for file storage makes it incredibly convenient to keep projects synced across my devices seamlessly.
This alone makes managing my writing workflow feel effortless.
Loving the Ghost Blog Connection
One feature I absolutely love—and was pleasantly surprised by—is the Ghost Blog Integration. Having my content publish-ready and directly connected to my Ghost blog platform takes away so many annoying steps. It’s an elegant bridge between drafting and publishing that I’ve wished for a long time.
The Beauty of a Pay-Once Ownership Model
Another thing that makes iA Writer stand out in today’s subscription-crazy world is its pay-once-and-own-it pricing model. It’s refreshing to invest in productivity software without the endless monthly fees hanging over your head. That alone has made me fall for this app even more. (As of this review, the price to own it forever is $19.99). Similar apps cost more than that every year, after the recurring monthly rate.
Outstanding Support and Documentation
On a more practical note, as a first-time user, I was amazed by the thorough support and documentation available through their official support site at https://ia.net/writer/support. Any questions or hiccups I had were quickly resolved through clear guides and helpful FAQs there, making the onboarding process smooth.
Final Thoughts and Rating
While this was not an in-depth review (as they're are so many more features of this remarkable app), iA Writer checks every box on my list of a great app.
iA Writer for iPadOS/iOS delivers a pure, distraction-free writing experience with smart integrations and a sensible ownership model. It complements my writing routine perfectly, and it’s now a staple on my iPad. For writers who value clean design, efficient publishing, and fair pricing, iA Writer is a must-have.
iA Writer earns 5 out of 5 stars!
