A great, simple writing app that gets out of the way and just lets you write.

I use Scrivener and Ulysses a lot for my writing project. Paper has special features. Its blank, resizable using pinch and zoom, and beautiful. Now I use Scrivener, Ulysses and Paper a lot more for my writing project :)

I just give a try to Paper and it's really elegant, thought I think the price of the two in-app modules are really too expensive for this category of tools (markdown editors, one of the most competitive category for apps). The font they choose to write by default is very nice and readable; I wasn't able to recognize it ? Is it the default San Francisco font?

Since Ulysses is now subscription-based I found another solution, I use Devonthink Pro already but its text editing window is ugly, so now I keep my texts in DTP but I edit them with Paper (which I paid to unlock completely as I find it a pleasant writing app.. Hope the dev will keep developing it for a looong time, as often these apps are let to wither away).
