Tips and Tricks

Power user tips to speed up your workflow including status tracking, typewriter mode, and more.

Here are some features to speed up your workflow:

Status Tracking

Each book has a status field. Use it to track your progress:

  • Draft
  • In Progress
  • Revision
  • Editing
  • Final
  • Published

Typewriter Mode

Enable this in Settings to keep your cursor vertically centered as you write. Many writers find this reduces neck strain during long sessions.

Zoom for Comfort

Use the zoom controls in the toolbar to find a comfortable reading size. Your preference is saved automatically.

Show Your Files

Go to Help → Show Library in Files to open your library in Finder or File Explorer. Useful for backups or working with other tools.
