About this app

Ever wanted to create a fictional setting — for your next novel, comic, screenplay, or what-have-you — but find it difficult to keep everything organized?

World Scribe eases the creation process by letting you keep track of every important element in your world, including the ways in which they're connected.

Whether you're a novelist, hobby writer, or role-player, World Scribe is an indispensable tool for making your settings more than just fiction. Bring your world to life today!

--------------------

FEATURES

- World elements — known as Articles — are organized into five categories for your convenience:

 * People - your colorful cast of characters

 * Groups - people united by blood, race, or a driving motivation

 * Places - the varied locales and vistas your world has to offer

 * Items - gadgets, important artifacts, and various belongings

 * Concepts - definitions for world-specific ideas like magic systems, religions, and superpowers

- Any Article can possess Connections to other Articles, complete with relationship descriptions. Each Connection also acts as a link to that Article's page. Need to find a character's siblings, or the ancient artifacts on their person? You can navigate to each of them straight from that character's page.

- Any Article can also possess Snippets, which are custom text entries unique to that Article. Want to write down an important letter or speech from one of your characters? How about a song or poem warning of a dangerous location in the world? The possibilities are endless!

- Everything you write is stored in simple text files, so feel free to export your worlds at any time and use them in other writing projects. You can find them in the "WorldScribe" folder on your phone's external storage.

- Have a Dropbox account? You can backup each of your worlds to your Dropbox account for easy exporting and added safety (in case the Dark Lord seizes your device). To backup, just select the "Backup to Dropbox" option from the overflow menu at any time.

I recind my previous rating, the app is much more stable. What concerns me is the lack of additional development of the actual app. Theres a handful of suggestions i have, such as a #tag system to organize or a gallery as a category like snippets are. I would like multiple images of the city I'm building... Heck, add a tab for maps, I have three, I don't have a way to connect them... In the years I've had this app, it hasnt changed a whole lot.... One aesthetics overhaul but that's about it...

Awesome app. It'd be great if there were a way to sort the articles, maybe an option to sort everything alphabetically as well as another option to manually sort articles (maybe there's a button in the menu that switches you to "sort" mode where you can only sort articles, not edit) in case someone wants to keep the most important articles at the top.

I have been using this app for several weeks without issue, and have put a lot of information into it. There was a glitch which they quickly rectified, and with good communication on their part. I'm giving this 5 stars not just because it's an easy to use app which helps me co-ordinate many disparate concepts, but also because they fixed the issue when they said they would. Great job!!!
