This looks really cool!

I've used a lot of distraction-free writing tools in the past. First it was DarkRoom, then I tried that thingy that was/is a YC startup ... forget the name, but it had the feature of recording your editing so you could view it later. Lately I'm using iA Writer to write my book and it's the best I've used so far.

The idea behind iA Writer and Onword looks pretty much the same - take away my freedoms and force me to focus on the writing.

But I think iA Writer is better at it. Because it's native, it can take over my whole screen, very important because it then feels like I'm writing paper where the "screen" also doesn't have any other features. I also prefer iA's colour scheme ... but this is just a preference.

I will give Onword a try, but for any serious writing I would need files on a hard drive.
