Too early to ask for an iPad version? Some reviewers have already made the comment that the iPad might be thought the more natural environment for this sort of app.

I'd disagree with them on that. Mac apps will always be needed.KB wrote:Some reviewers (by which I assume you mean one reviewer) seem to think that nobody should be writing apps for the Mac any more.
Really I would have thought that this was the very time for market research. Put the prototype out there (as a beta) and garner the users feedback on what they want and where they want it.And seeing as Scapple isn't even on sale yet, yes, I'd say it was too early.
Enthusiasm? Too right it is. But we're no longer writing in a mono-culture --- if we were then all we'd be given is Microsoft Word.It's rather depressing that you can't put a Mac app out there for Mac users without the chorus if demands for it on another platform these days, but I choose to interpret as a compliment, as enthusiasm for the product.
I've tried writing on my iPad but it's really only useful for fragments and notes. Whether the equivalent of index cards or small additions to the text. Scrivener (on Mac) is the most useful writers' tool I have. Index Card on my iPad is useful but imposes the same sequentialism as Scrivener.But the Mac is what I use; I still cannot stand the iPad for writing, and first and foremost I write software I want to use myself.
