Many sit down to write and watch hours vanish with nothing to show but a trail of browser tabs. Flowstate is a response to the amphetaminic digital age. It frees the writer to turn on, tune in, and open up. HOW IT WORKS Choose how long you want to write (5, 15, 30 min), then enter a flow session. If you exit early, or stop typing for longer than five seconds, all progress is lost. The only way to save your work is by writing until the timer ends. WTF? Flowstate is guided by a simple philosophy: flow, then react. What does it feel like to write with pure momentum? What comes out when you hurtle deeper and deeper without pausing to tweak or edit? For those willing to set aside their preconceptions of how to write, they may find a companion in Flowstate: a single law that silences the analytical brain and amplifies a voice of candor. TRIPPY What you have to offer is you. The way out is through. ——————————————————————————— TECHNICAL STUFF Your documents are synced across all devices Exclusive to iOS and macOS Built by Overman
Great app!
Everything I’ve been looking but in a compact and minimal form! Just one suggestion. Could you add in a setting that allows you to set the duration of the timer? It would be great to see if longer time durations evoke a more demanding meditating state and more of an exercise to see if it can be trained. Again thanks again! And also could you update the app to fit the iPhones with the notch on the top of the screen?
United StatesWonderful to partner with editing & organizing apps
Flowstate excels at allowing (forcing) one to write “in the zone” and results in great productivity. Enabling the autocorrect feature results in usable text fro ppl like me whose touch typing is rather…well, let’s just say, I could practice more. Sharing a doc with another writing app (Ulysses, for example) makes sense and allows organization, especially for large projects, including novels. (Ulysses is great, but has no autocorrect, leaving poor typists frustrated.). The reflow tool, allows you to challenge yourself by adding time to each exercise.
United StatesAlmost perfect
For what it is, this app is great. It looks great, runs great, and has a great concept behind it. What it’s missing for me is an option to disable deletion while you’re writing. I get distracted by spelling errors and impulsively go back to correct them, which ends my state of flow. Unfortunately this has ruined the app for me personally. I’d rather use a pen and paper as I don’t have that option.
United States❤️ ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT ❤️
I absolutely love this app. I have been using it consistently since it was released, and I am still using it. Its simple, intuitive, and accomplishes its sole purpose: to keep you writing. To the reviews that gave the app a low rating and complained about it deleting the writing, I say this: Why are you giving a bad rating to an app for doing the very thing it’s designed to do? If you don’t like the idea/philosophy behind it, that’s fine; but you should give it 5 stars for doing what it was made to do. End of my rant on that. In summary, I think this app is a wonderful tool to aid the writing process, especially in the beginning stages or for quick thoughts. Highly recommended to any serious writers, whether hobbyists or professionals. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
United Statessomething wrong
love this app but i swear it used to have a five minute timer and now it only counts down from a minute?? havent even updated this so idk how this happened i cant find a way to change the timer....
United StatesNice app, but...
As you can see from tdhe version history, this app is no longer supported. I found a bug while using split view, so I sent a email, but the developer didn’t replied.
United StatesPlease, give me choice color
