yes, if you use Writer's proof reading function. It is part of the learning curve, but I found it easy to get used to. Plus, the spell check allows you to find misspelled words and correct one, then go to the next in context, etc. I think it is the best app for editing. There is a good article

To say an app is straight forward is hard, since it depends on how detailed you want to be. The manual is very good and learning the mark down symbols, for me, was pretty easy. If you want a bulleted list, you simply put a hyphen before each item. To get the document on dropbox, you would then

Scrivener didn't seem to let me enter apostrophes. It kept giving a short beep whenever I tried. Also, I found it tricky to import all the files I wanted to from Dropbox. I love the basic philosophy behind Scrivener but I just didn't have the experience I thought I would. I've had a much smoother

I'd say Wordbook compares quite nicely to Wordweb. For some reason, Wordweb got harder to use for me on iOS. It's a great app and I'd be happy to learn it was back to being fully useable. It was great on Windows too. Wordbook gives comparable definitions. There have been times when Ulysses has

Thank you everyone for the suggestions. I have a few follow up questions. Word Book sounds cool. How would you compare it to WordWeb? That’s the app I’ve been using for years. Ulysses is $19.99 in IOS App store and $44.99 in Mac App Store. Am I understanding correctly, if you wanted both

Hello. I recommend Ulysses. It's fully accessible now. Since Apple figured out how to improve text selection, I haven't found any good reason to use Voice Dream Writer. It's easy to select, cut and paste chunks of text in Pages or other mainstream writing apps. Proof-reading is quite possible

Hi Tracy, VoiceDream Writer costs $9.99, but it is so worth it. You can spellcheck and proofread your documents. I'm not sure if it syncs up with DropBox, but it does sync with iCloud so whenever you edit a document, it is automatically updated. Also when you create the document, and name iot,
