One keystroke melts away everything but your text. No notifications, no buttons, no noise. Just you and the story. When you're ready for your tools again, they glide right back into place.
Write more. Fiddle less. Indie Writer makes the hard part "the writing" the only part you have to think about.
Every feature is exactly where you expect it to be. Word counts update as you type, spell and grammar checking works quietly in the background, and organizing your chapters feels as natural as flipping pages in a notebook. Whether you're drafting your first short story or polishing a full-length novel, Indie Writer feels instantly familiar. Just like it was built just for you.
Never lose your flow hunting for the perfect word again. In Indie Writer, double-click any word in the editor and a powerful thesaurus springs to life instantly. No menus, no keyboard shortcuts to memorize, no breaking your concentration.
The built-in lookup gives you three tools in one elegant popup:
Dialogue alternatives for overused "said"? Double-click it and browse a whole palette of dialogue tags: whispered, muttered, declared, replied...
It works on every word, not just dialogue. Spot a word you've leaned on too hard? Double-click, pick a fresher option, and keep typing and never leave the page.
KDP‑ready exports, automatic margins, cover designer, EPUB/PDF/Word/Markdown output — everything you need to publish professionally without leaving the app.
KDP‑ready exports, a built‑in cover designer, and multi‑format ebook output.
Every story starts as a spark, a line of dialogue overheard on the bus, a plot twist at 2 a.m., a character who won't leave you alone. The Vault is where those sparks live before they become stories.
Here's the part writers love most: The Vault isn't buried in a menu somewhere. A slide-in drawer puts your entire idea library one click away from anywhere in the app. Mid-chapter, mid-outline, mid-edit. Dialogue gold strikes while you're writing chapter twelve? Slide the Vault open, jot it down, slide it closed. You never leave your page, and the idea never escapes.
