Scrivener 2.0.5 Now Available on the Mac App Store

Scrivener is now live on the Mac App Store!

A big thank you to those who have been wanting to buy Scrivener from the App Store and who have waited eagerly to do so – we really appreciate it. And kudos to whoever the reviewer at Apple was, too, as he or she gave us feedback very quickly in areas we needed to fix, and I’m really happy to say that the Mac App Store version of Scrivener is identical to the version we sell directly – no features had to be stripped.

You can find us under the productivity section, here:

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/scrivener/id418889511?mt=12

Just to remind everyone, though, that we are not going MAS-exclusive, so if you don’t mind installing things the regular way (and want us to get more of the proceeds 🙂 ) you can still buy Scrivener from us directly via the product page:

Of course, if you prefer the Mac App Store, that’s now an option, and we’ll be delighted to welcome new users however they choose to purchase.

UPDATE 31/03/11: I’ve put together an FAQ that should cover most questions users have about Scrivener and the Mac App Store here:

Please let me know if there are any questions you think I’ve missed.
