Pros and cons of celtx script app for iPhone and iPad

celtx script app good for

Amazing program (I have it on Mac) and application. Simple, intuitive and FREE. Every tools are here. I hope theyll stay free !
It a good tool to write fast scripts in a trip or in a place you dont have a notebook or desktop. But of course many tools is disabled in this version. ;)
A really solid app. All it needs is Celtx Studio support. I want to be able to open my projects that are already in Celtx Studio, having to synch one more service is just making it needlessly complicated and causes yet another version to float around you have to keep track of.
Great App. Did wait for this really Long. Now add a function to let us Open our celtx projects from the studio, and ill give 5 Stars.
... but I really miss the landscape mode, a Zoom and a better readable Font... then it would be perfect
I really like CeltX, because its great. And the sync-function is very good, BUT!! please enable: -catalogs -zoom function I think one can expect this for 7,99€ = 10$!! Then Ill rate it 5 Stars!! Get going ;)

Some bad moments

Nothing to do with the app. You can only write text with auto-indentation... Thats all !!! No way to work on your characters or shedule or else.
Its annoying that when I switch to another app, even a simple one, and then come back to celtx script, my current script is closed and I have to touch it to open it again, and I find out that it didnt save my latest sentences!
On PC, I have several options of scripts, and here appears only screenplay. It should be fixed.
I use Celtx to write my comics, but I had problems. The most annoying is when you write on iPhone and later open the script on PC, all panels in the page are lost, sometimes captions too. Your script turned a messy, you lost precious time remaking the structure and if you use the iPhone app, it will happen again. So, you must use the pc online version or the app, not both in the same project.
Current version does not seem to display NOVELS. Therefore useless for me = wasted money. A clear warning would be helpful. Hoping for an update.
The only reason anyone needs software of any form for script writing is for help formatting. This app provides none, no guidance no user manual no help what so ever. Im sure it would work fine for people who know how to write script, but then why would you need software if you already know what to do, its just spaces indents and punctuation really. I bought this app because I need help writing my first few scripts properly and this app will provide no help with that. I wish you could get refunds on apps cause this was a waste of $10.
