Not practical to use with Scrivener – Storyist Review

I anticipated I would be able to work on a Scrivener project on my Ipad and also be able to work on the same project on my airbook (using Scrivener). However, after purchasing this and attempting it, and reading about the attempts of a few others, it appears this is not likely to work. First, you can only read in Scrivener files using iCloud, because storyist cannot use the scrivener file format created by dropbox. However, storyist does not sync well with icloud. The folder created to sync with icloud never appeared on my other devices. The forums suggest this is a common problem. Second, it's not clear that storyist saves Scrivener files. So you can't create a file on ios storyist and then save it to Scrivener. You can import a Scrivener file, but you can't sync it, and you can't create a file and then save it to Scrivener. Not really practical. If I ever figure it out I'll update this.
