My Favorite Apps
There are six apps I use constantly in my work as an author and lecturer. Two of them I’ve used for years and the other four are new. I discovered all of them since the beginning of the year.
The apps are:
- Nebo
- Scrivener
- iThoughtsX
- Scrintal
- Milanotes
- Heptabase
New ideas start out as a scribbled note on Nebo on my iPad. When I get time, I expand the idea with notes and sketches. Oftentimes I take screenshots and send them to my laptop to be incorporated into other apps.
The image shows my scribbling for this article.
I’ve used this app for years. I’d guess I’ve written over 15 books with it, both fiction and non-fiction. I use it for anything that I think will end up being more that eight or nine thousand words. A feature I use a lot during the warm weather months is the iPad version. I’ll go to the pool and use the iPad and a keyboard to write.
