I installed v10.3 today, pretty uneventful.
It seems that the iCloud features are not yet active for music here in the Netherlands (iTunes stores always trail the US), but for apps and books it works nicely.
Better.
At least I can now finally import some files, the version 1 was absolutely unsuccessful in that.
(Tech support: "your file is wrong" though all other applications like Excel or Numbers could read it fine. And now can Version 2...).
Still basic, but now I can finally explore its usability.
Have been trying to get the latest update for ages, but the system claims every time I have reached my max number of downloads for this month. Which is nonsense, because I haven't been successful for much more than a year.
And support or contact e-mail never to be found.
I tried several of these novel writing apps during my annual stab at writing a novel in the (Inter)NationalNovelWritingMonth: started with Ulysses (which I find too focused on text-only, and not intuitive to my brain), moved on to Scrivener (absolutely great), StoryMill (like the concept, but cannot get the hang of it), and since last year Storyist.
Fort apps like these, personal taste is more important than any other, imo, and amazingly If found that the touch of extra structure and discipline Storyist imposes on my writing works like a charm. It is full featured, and for now my winner, by a nose length, over Scrivener, which is quite a feat in itself.
Of course, the next Scrivener which is just around the corner might change all that again. What a blessed platform the Mac is!
Just looked it up: one of the licenses I have to their software is to Illumination. Which was a disk cataloguing tool. With the same icon as the current. And which they abandoned, together with
DiscBlaze
DeskDoodle
Macabinet
RadicalSqueeze
RadicalSafe
Footlights
and biggest scam of all Formation ('the upgrade is just around the corner, promise!'...Not!)
Bought, paid for and then they ran. I am still angry!

Still too expensive for me, and too advanced. I'll stick with BeLight Publisher for my needs.
Or my cherished copy of Canvas X!
