QUICK
The flexible approach to screenwriting allows you to create a scene by scene movie outline in minutes. You can easily re-arrange scenes, add and remove characters from scenes, and when you're ready just tap on a scene to start writing dialogue. Writing dialogue is also a breeze. Just tap on one of your movie characters, enter what they say and do, and the line is correctly formatted for you. The flexible approach also means you can re-order the dialogue at ease.
PICTORIAL
Each scene is represented by an image of your choosing and is displayed in order with thumbnail images of the characters in each scene so you can see at a glance the flow of your movie.
SMART
The app will keep you updated with the information you need such as the total duration, number of lines in each scene, number of scenes and of characters.
FEATURES
- Export options
- Automatic script formatting
- Unlimited number of movies
- 10,000 word guide to screenwriting

I like it

I'm fourteen and I'm only using this app for fun because I had an idea for a movie and wanted to write it in the correct format. I probably don't know what I'm talking about, but I'm pretty sure you can have more than one location in one sceen. For example, I was reading a screenlay one time and it said Cut to, followed by another location. Is there a way to do that with this app? Right now, I've just been writing it in a direction. Please let me know.
Good – but in a limited sense.

This app makes it easy to jot down scenes, characters, dialogue, etc. But when you export your work into a script output, it doesn't seem to format correctly in terms of tabs, margins, etc. Dialogue still seems skewed towards the left side of the page, rather than the center where it traditionally belongs. It also doesn't seem to allow you to utilize basic things such as italics which can be useful in conveying dialogue. A nice tool that isn't bad for the price - but hardly gives you what you need to output a professionally formatted script. Good for jotting down ideas for scripts and fleshing out individual scenes and structure, etc. - but you will need other tools to get you to a finished script you can present to others.
Okay...

Everything worked really well, but it doesn't allow you to scroll down and choose another character. Everything else was perfect

you really need to update. 1 id like to scroll the screen so i can see all the buttons and boxes from both regular(right side up) and landscape(sideways) modes. 2 when making a scene, i cant scroll down all the way through my character list...thats bugging me...i cant select any characters past a certain point for the scene...

This app is not very Useful. the guide is great but it is really not at all convenient. I like to write on the run and while I travel. The keyboard covers up what you are typing at different points. It does not sync to other devices. I tried to write a scene and could not even access the characters I developed. The list would not allow me to scroll. A waste. Very disappointed.
Not very good

This just going to be a list of complaints. It's ok but I'd like to be able to scroll all the way down on the character list when writing scenes because you can only have four characters until it starts cutting them off of the screen and you can't use them. The setup isn't very helpful at all organization wise but that's just my opinion. Honestly it was better just using a pen and paper. This app is not worth the money.
Scrolling and text.

I bought this App, because the other ones were too expensive or not available. I am really hoping that the ability to scroll within all of the text boxes would be fixed. They are not. Please fix them in the next update. Thanks in advance. It has been several months now and there has been no movement on the "fixing" of this app. I'm very sad that this potentially great app at a great price is not going to be helped along to make it a better app.
A helpful tool

It's got its limitations but- at least for the iPad- I feel it's well designed. What I am most interested in, as a beginning screenwriting, is the structure it imparts to the process. I'd like to see more features- especially an outline on which one could build scenes- and would be willing to pay for them in a pro version. Also, I didn't have any problems with exporting my script. For the price, I've got to give it a 5.
It's not ready yet!

I just spent 2 days breaking down a whole treatment into this program. I was enjoying the possibilities. Once I got my final piece in. The program shut off. And it will not open now. You launch it and it immediately closes. What a waste of my time. Pretty irritated.
