Two years ago, I reviewed Phraseology, an iPad writing app, and was impressed with it.
Version 1 of the app offered powerful tools, including paragraph re-arranging, URL schemes, TextExapander, Markdown previews and lots of export options.
In my review, I came to this:
This app was built for writers, and it shows.
For a period of time, Phraseology was the writing app for iPad, in my opinion, but today, the landscape is very different. Byword is great, and Editorial brings a level of power that is nearly impossible to match.
That said, there’s still a place for Phraseology, and I still rely on it. It may have more competition than ever before, but it can stand its ground just fine.
Today, Phraseology 2 is here. It brings the same great features found in the first release, but adds some goodies:
- iCloud support for document storage
- Dropbox-powered version control
- Syntax highlighting for parts of speech
- Deep tie-ins with Drafts for iPad and Editorial via x-callback-URL
Phraseology 2 is on sale now for $1.99, and is a free update for existing users. If you’re looking for a powerful — but easy-to-use — iPad text editor, check it out.
