It even has a template for formatting work specifically for Warner Brothers, among many other templates. It has tools for formatting screenplays and teleplays for professional production. It's also a PCMag Editors' Choice, but it's specifically targeted at working screenwriters.
One other writing app worth mentioning is Final Draft ($199.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) ($249.99, available for Mac and Windows). These aren't recurring subscriptions, the way so much other software is. Bear in mind, all the prices are one-time payments. While the iOS app price is high, if you think of Scrivener or Ulysses as a packaged deal at $65 or $70 that includes mobile apps for syncing your work, the price is still attractively low. They both have optional iOS apps that you can buy separately for an extra $19.99 and $24.99. Ulysses is Mac-only software, whereas Scrivener is available for both macOS and Windows. Scrivener ($49.00 at Scrivener) (Opens in a new window) and Ulysses (both Editors' Choices) each cost $45. Those apps cost a little more than Focused, but not much.

Two examples are iA Writer ($29.99 at iA Inc) (Opens in a new window) and WriteRoom. Other, better, distraction-free Mac apps for writing sell for about a third of the price. There are no companion mobile apps either, which is another strike against the software.Īs mentioned, the price is high for what it is. You can buy a copy of the Focused app from the Mac App Store or directly from the maker, Codebots, for $30. The problem is that, while it can get the job done, Focused is way too expensive for what it offers. Its signature feature is that it includes several audio tracks, both white noise and calming musical soundscapes, to (theoretically) boost your concentration and help you block out the world. Like many of them, Focused eschews menus and extraneous options to give you a minimal experience while you write. Many of the best apps for writers aim to create an environment with as few distractions as possible so that the words on the page are the focus.
