Not Sure Which Writing App to Use on Your iPhone or iPad? This Chart Compares Them All


Despite the inherent slowness of typing on a touchscreen, iOS has no shortage of writing apps and text editors. The real problem is knowing which one is right for you. While we have our top pick, if you want to take a high-level look at all of your options and how they stack up against each other, developer Brett Terpstra has created a chart to help you out.

You can see a small portion of the chart pictured above, but it should give you an idea of how much information is packed into this comparison of all the major text editors for iOS. Not only does it include a helpful graph of information, but if you want to see more you can click on any app for details. This will supply you with a description of the app, several screenshots, and more. If you're having trouble picking the right text editor for you, you'll want to give this chart a look.
