Download Download Appflowy 0.0.2 / 0.0.3 Beta 1 Free

When one wants to input their text into a word processor, apps to fulfill that role are plentiful. Depending on the use case, users are not starved of choice, and that’s a good thing. Picking the go-to software to handle your writing is the tougher step.

In that case, you may want to consider AppFlowy, an open-source, modern-looking text editor that allows you to jot down your thoughts with ease and arrange them with the formatting tools on offer.

The minimalist interface draws attention to your writing

Learning to use this app comes naturally: it’s overall a very familiar design, and the tutorial you’re greeted by upon boot-up certainly helps you understand how it all works.

Thanks to the available formatting and highlighting tools, text can be structured very neatly and orderly. The usual italic, bold, and underscore functions are all here, and so are the bullet points. Highlighting can help you accentuate the important bits of your writing, and proper use of the various headings can help tidy up the look of your text.

It’s a simplistic app overall, so there’s not that much to comment on its functionality: it works as intended, and the privacy-focused outlook of the developer is certainly good to hear of.

Pages and subpages help with orderly writing habits

If you find yourself wanting to write about all sorts of different things at once, then this functionality may just help your productivity. Essentially, you can create multiple pages for your trains of thought. Subpages work along the same line.

In conclusion, AppFlowy shows a good amount of potential, but there’s still quite a lot of work to be done to bring forth more functionality. As it stands, it’s a very bare-bones text editor with a nice design. A cloud-syncing functionality , coupled with a mobile app to take your writing anywhere, would be wonderful to have.
