You know what's keeping you from writing the Next Big Thing? It's not ambition, it's not talent, it's not even the lack of a computer with which to unleash your creative beast -- it's a lack of FOCUS. Your word processing program isn't helping, either. You launch it, only to see a great portion of the on-screen real estate eaten up by menu bars! That's what's so cool about WriteRoom, the app that gives you a luxurious full screen writing experience!
WriteRoom lets you focus on writing, pure and simple. There are no menus or other distractions, just a big blank screen that's waiting for you to populate with your craftmanship. You won't need to concern yourself with layout, tables, graphs, or any of that other non-writing related junk -- which is not to say that you won't enjoy the benefit of a handy word count and autosave!
Even better, you can use WriteRoom on your Mac as well as your iPhone, and keep your writing synced between them! Thanks to the SimpleText.ws service, WriteRoom lets you work anywhere, at any time, with the assurance that you'll always have access to your latest draft!

- “But if, when it comes right down to it, full screen is your holy grail, and the ultimate antidote to the bric-a-brac of Word, then you must enter the WriteRoom, the ultimate spartan writing utopia.”- Virginia Heffernan, New York Times
- “Unlike practically everything else in our digital lives, WriteRoom's minimalist interface implies a truly flattering proposition: It's you, not the software, that matters.”- Jeffrey MacIntyre, Slate
- “Green text on a blank, black screen, with a square, blinking cursor. This was how most of us wrote on a computer in the early 1980s, and it's resurfacing a quarter of a century later.”- Rob Pegoraro, Washington Post
- “WriteRoom's minimalist interface also frees you from the nagging urge to fiddle with margins, fonts, and other settings, leaving you with nothing to do but write.”- Nathan Alderman, MacWorld
- “It's a primitive application, to be sure - I suspect completely by design - but it may be just what the doctor ordered if you need to get your head out of your butt and put some words on the page. I can see myself spending a lot of time in WriteRoom.”- Merlin Mann, 43Folders.com
