Can’t believe I’ve been missing this. Been searching off and on for YEARS for good writing and character creation aids, and I can say with great pleasure that this is the best money I’ve spent in that department. Worth every cent. The sheer volume of stuff here is incredible, and they even included a randomizer for each category so you can shuffle any list and use it as a sort of “prompt”.

Incredible, just wish it was free. I looooove this app so much! It gave me just what I needed when I needed to create a character in a book I’m writing. It’s one of the best apps I’ve ever used and I would definitely recommend it. However, I don’t really think it should cost money. It’s great and all, but I told my friend about it and she said she couldn’t get it because it wasn’t free. I suggest you make it free and/or take the price down. Then, you might get more customers. Thanks for creating an app that I love!

Got it all. I found this app to be helpful in my writing process.

Awesome!!!!. This app has helped me brainstorm everything for my characters and it works with voiceover. I hope you guys keep up the good work and keep making it better if that is at all possible. Thank you for this.

Block Breaker. Upside: this app is the mortal enemy of writer’s block. Downside: the “Seven Basic Plots” section is a bit thin, even cryptic. Download this app now!

Love it. This App is helping me use the right words while I write my draft for a book. Thank you

Amazing app but can improve. The app is an enormous help! It’s better than expected. But it should use pictures for a visual representation to not be switching from this app to a browser to search for a word that you might not know.

Thank you!. I have been looking for something like this. I can really focus on each character in my story and organize them on the go! Love, love, love this app!!!

Amazing app, but incomplete. I love the options, but I wish there were more definitions on the words. If you have to leave the app to look something up it kind of defeats the efficiency of it all. And addition of a weapons category would be nice as well.

Good for writing Inspiration. Can you find everything in this app on the internet for free? Yes, of course you can. Is this the most extensive list of random things to spark inspiration? No, it isn’t. However, having a ton of random inspiration lists on a very organized app is well worth it the two dollars to me. Especially when the alternative is to browse random lists on google for an hour just to find a simple name for a flash fiction character. The only thing I wish the app had was a wider variety of names. All the names on the list are all out of the ‘top 100’ baby names lists online. John. Elizabeth. Ruby. Not that it’s a bad thing, but I prefer more ‘out there’ names for fantasy and science fiction.

Options. I would add more definitions to the words provided and definitely more words! There are a lot of categories but the options within them are some what lacking!

Worth Every Penny!!!. I was hesitant when I first saw this. I rarely ever buy apps/games. I bought it anyway and I'm SO glad I did!!! Its super helpful. Before I struggled a TON when it came to writing stories. After i bought this I honestly believe, I've come up with more ideas in a week then I would have in like two months without this app. I STRONGLY recommend this to any writer/author out there. You wont be sorry!!

Love it!!. I absolutely love this app. I love that it has tons of words and things I can use at once so that I don’t have to go on google and type in every single one. And most of the time I don’t know what to write about! But this app gives me ideas and thoughts so writers block turns into, well, writers idea I guess!? But I do have one suggestion. When we click on a word that we want to use, if we don’t know what it means can we see a definition please? If you don’t take in this suggestion it’s okay, but I really don’t feel like having to go to another website to know what it means. Thanks again for this awesome app!!!! Your money is definitely worth this! 💜💜🌷😁😁😊😊

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. This is the best $3 I’ve ever spent. If you’re a writer, this is a must-have! Lots of things I didn’t know are in there. It’s like a writer-specific dictionary!

Worth it x🔁. I’ve had this app for a couple of years. It sits in the background, largely unused, until I’m in the middle of an intense writing session and don’t have time to play with coming up with names. It’s saved countless sessions from procrastination daydreams and supplied the names for most of the supporting characters in my novel.

Not bad. Still in my early days of using this app. Working on converting my original work from floppy disk has been made a bit easier. The layout is a bit confusing but once you get the hang of it it’s all gravy. Will update more stars after I have a full year of use.

The Greatest thing on Earth!. You need this!

Editing Lists. The lists are excellent and comprehensive, but the app is a little clunky. It shuffles, but it’s not very powerful otherwise. I want the ability to edit the lists, insert whole new lists, or reorganize them as I see fit.

My favourite writing app. This ROCKS!! I use it for short stories, dnd, everything. It's wonderful I can't say enough good things

Awesome Reference. I love this app! As a beginner novelist, this has come in handy more times than I can count! ******

from an aspiring writer. Lists for writers has been a tool I have used for years. It’s got names, places, occupations and even silly words. It’s the perfect tool for writers.

Just a thought. Maybe it’s my mistake for not fully looking through the description. But, i thought i could at least have the option of choosing the names and other things on the list and have it aside in a menu or something. Sort of like a blueprint for my novel, where i can see the structure of my characters and where they’re going instead of using the whole novel as a reference.

Absolutely Awesome. This app helped inspire ideas just from the amount of stuff in it!

Extremely useful!!. I love this app much! It’s very helpful. However, it would be awesome if I could make lists and categorize them by whichever story I am writing. Over all it’s a great app 💕.

Absolutely amazing for writers!. My experience with this app have been phenomenal! I struggled with names for characters, often resorting to names I've already used. But with this app, there's hundreds of male, female and last names to choose from. I highly recommend this app for any writer, and has many other features. One thing I wish they had but it enough to effect the rating is the lack of names for non-human characters. I think adding a section for that would be great! When would you name an alien Robert? 🤣

Best app to use.. If you're a writer, this should be your go-to app. For someone who has been writing stories for nearly five years, this saves so much time. It gives vague ideas that could turn into anything. If helps describe nearly every feature on a person, and has a perfect list of names. This app is more than what it says, I promise. It has helped my stories be written faster by giving creativity and also helps with forming a storyline. I love and support this app so much, I've always recommended it to all my friends, and have even gifted it to a few. This app is definitely worth buying and underrated.

Best app for writers just starting out!. I always struggled with names for my characters when I just started and this app completely alleviated the problem. It also has many more categories and makes it easier to come up with and complete ideas. One of my favorite apps!

Love It + Suggestion. I really love using this app when I write, it helps me jump out of writer’s block. One thing I would suggest is adding a feature to let you add your own words to a list and still have it be sorted in alphabetical order. That would help a lot to expand and personalize each person’s own lists.

The app need to be updated. I wish the app contain search bar and better UI design the black border around table are annoying giving the app cheap feeling like it was made by someone who is still learning how to develop apps, pulse it would nice to be able save my favorite words since I can’t even search them

The ultimate shortcut, to cut out unnecessary thinking. Save your thinking for character or idea development - use this super repository of lists to quickly build up you writing to get you-UN STUCK on superfluous details-off to a fast start.

So helpful. This has been a huge help for those times when I let myself get bogged down in the name of a random character. Stop trying to make the pizza delivery boy’s name meaningful and just let the list do it for you. I do wish that there was a way to make my own lists that are helpful for my specific writings that I need over and over.

Soo worth it!. I have had this app for a long while, and I've never written a review on it! To put it simply, it's one of my favourites. There was clearly so much time put into this application, and whether youre a writer or not, it's actually pretty useful for ideas or anything else to get you going! I definitely suggest downloading it

Use it ALL the time!. This is an amazing tool for, not only writers, but for everyday reference. For example, I just now used it as a basis for an anniversary present!

Quick reference for on the go riders. Very accessible and very thorough app for writers.

Just use google. Would change my review if you were able to save and make list. As it is you’re paying $3 for something you can google for free. Interesting concept but poor execution

Extremely useful. Just having a list of names is helpful enough, but all the other lists at least the ones I’ve seen so far are helpful as well, could really be useful for fleshing out scenes, characters, locations ect when you hit the inevitable lull/fallow period in a piece of writing, not to mention a fresh orientation to different dimensions that can be utilized in thoughtful and inventive ways in a story. Also (and I think this is very important to me as a writer) it ain’t heavy on description, you get enough of a definition when warranted to get the idea but not enough to utilize the idea without fleshing it out and building your own narrative structure with it.

Amazing!. Anyone who writes could benefit from this super helpful app. I mainly use when I am writing FanFiction.

Disappointed. Wont let me save the words on the list, just copy’s it to “One” paper and you can’t scroll down. The first picture shown is all they gave me. The other pages weren’t there

Just a few minors tweaks!. This app is good, with the potential to be great. I know open-sourcing it would make it more susceptible to constant error, but it would be nice if there was a way to make this list more dynamic - allow users to suggest more words, examples, definitions, and categories!

More lists. Great! Has a lot but should be still adding more. A list of flowers, plant life, insects, synonyms, jobs, ect. Keep adding this is great. Or have an option where users can make their own lists

Not worth the money. Never, in all of my years, never have I said anything derogatory about an app that helps someone learn. Today that changes, since I bought this app and looked through it, exceedingly curious, only to find that I could have just looked up character traits or colors online. There is no different result here than there is on the internet. I downloaded this, assuming that I could gain more ideas than I already have, but of course I was wrong. This app is not worth the time or money.

Time Saver. This app makes it easy to have commonly used word categories at your fingertips. I keep my on a spreadsheet and isn’t always convenient. I would make one suggestion, I really wish I could add more words and/or categories of my own. For instance, I’d like a category of ways to say “say”.

Words Review. Words and word origins have always intrigued me. Words are powerful. Increasing my vocabulary is fun to me. I hope this will be as much fun to you as it is to me

Pretty great. I love this app, but I wish it had more examples and definitions for some of the categories. Definitely worth it though!

Great app for writers!. I live this app because it had a large selection of names for characters and so much more!

BEST EVER. This app is so amazing! If you are a writer, you NEED this. (The extensive list of names is especially of use to me) You must must MUST get this app! Aaaand that’s all I have to say!

MUST GET. I’ve had this app for ten minutes and I’ve tried it and I LOVE IT! It has accurate informational lists of everything you need to plan your story or character. It would even be helpful for people needing a simple informational app to tap into instead of having to search it on the complex internet. It has lists from names to locations, to zodiac signs, to physical appearances, and more! IT’S LITERALLY PERFECT! SERIOUSLY. THE SIMPLEST AND MOST HELPFUL INFORMATIONAL PLANNING APP IS ONLY 3$! Best money I’ve ever spent!

Amazing/Full App- possible additions. Great app, amazing and constantly broadening my vocabulary and character individualization. Some possible lists that would be great to add could be Weapons - Military (guns, artillery, war machines) Weapons - handheld (swords, staves, gauntlets etc) Mounts (types of horses, camels, etc)

Great tool when used wisely. This app is a great list to start your story idea, develop and create great settings and characters, and help writer’s block; but don’t rely on them to completely to tell your story. All you’ll get is description which can become boring. With that being said there’s always words on this list that will enhance a story strongly, you just have to pick them wisely and use words that won’t interrupt the voice, or mood of the story or a character you’re working on.

Excellent. This app has many good series of lists for writers of all types.

Best App EVER!!!!!. Being a writer I often need: firstly a reminder of what I need to include, secondly a thesaurus and lastly coming up with ideas and information about a character quickly. This app allows all of that at a touch of a button. Need a name for a character, bam I have it in seconds. Need help describing a character, for example body shape I have that too in seconds. This app is AMAZING it is everything a writer need. Whether you are an experienced or inexperienced this app is perfect.

Please Update. It sadly continues to crash on IOS 8 which I really upsetting as it looks like an amazing app. Please update it so I can start using it :(

Fabulous. Love the phobia list, while the others are all very useful the phobia one is by far my favourite has helped me heaps

In love. I only just got the app and have scrolled through the lists but I am already in love with it. One thing I will say is that name meanings and origins could possibly be included? But yeah, it is amazing even without that. I cannot wait to start using it!

Wonderful App + Feedback. This is such an incredible idea and it’s been single handedly saving my entire novel. Something that I would honestly love to see would be an expanded list of clothing articles as well as specialised objects and/or fields- e.g weapons, building features, fantasy creatures (in their own folder!), maybe some well-known plants and luxury/little-used items! But all in all it’s such a great app and I’m really grateful to have it!

GREAT!. This app is absolutely great! A huge inspiration to writers, if you're wanting to write, give this app a go! It will help you out loads. It helped me :)

Absolutely amazing app!. This is one of the most helpful apps I have ever found!! So useful for writing, and incredibly intuitive!!! It's amazing

Best App For Writers Block. Excellent content and vast amount of options to kick start your creative minds. Suggestion: can you put the phobias and other categories in the personality section in reverse. i.e. the description and then the phobia as people often know the type of phobia and not the actual name of the phobia itself. This will help locate the type quicker. Otherwise a great app to improve on.

Fantastic!. Fantastic app! Very well organized and filled with information. If I may make some suggestions, maybe a search bar in the phobia and philics section? You could also put in the definitions for the names as well? Thank you so much for this app. It's definitely worth buying

Essential. This app is amazing. Full, comprehensive lists of everything a writer might need to develop any and every aspect of their story. An absolutely essential resource for any writer!!

BEST APP FOR WRITERS. This app is a fantastic app for ALL writers, especially for those with writers block....

I love this!!!. This app is seriously awesome for writers block, I can just scroll through, get ideas and boom! Really recommend it!

Great resource. Heaps of wonderful ideas!

Amazing!!. Extremely helpful, I recommended to all the writers out there, so easy to use and has everything you need!

Won’t open. Won’t open on either my iPan or iPhone.

AWESOMMMMMMEEEE. I like writing but I always get stuck on names and clothing this app really helped thankyou😉😉👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

good app. a good app really helps with my character building for my screenplays

Fantastic app. Well laid out easy to navigate excellent tool.

This app is great. The only thing that would make it better is if there was some kind of cross-reference search to help and more definitions. It would be cool to be able to search: archaic occupations related to government

Amazing resource. The lists in this app are not only numerous but also extremely detailed and comprehensive. I've never seen a compilation like his before! From names of any type to phobias to places (real and imaginary!) to even military acronyms, this app most likely has whatever you need to brainstorm for your book, your role playing games or anything else you want it for. I see many uses for this app apart from its great service to writers. The effort that has gone into it is obvious. Compliments to the creators! 👏😄

Excellent!. Seems pretty good so far, although I feel like it could be more researched, especially towards cultures. Australia’s slang is a bit off, almost comical! Keep up the great work though! I hope you continue with the product!

Really great. Great ideas and helpful

One Of The Best!--But?. This app has been my "go to" app for years. It has been both an inspiration and a great way to source ideas for fiction. But an update would be even better guys. Maybe we could have more data on the historical side of things, like Important Historical Moments. Keep up the great work!

Awesome. This app is just absolutely awesome!

Very helpful. This is a great app, especially for those of us who have some difficulty thinking of dialog words to replace "said" and "asked" every now and again.

Great app for the price. I find the name lists alone save me hours of surfing the web trying to find something that will work. I use the app quite often and would definitely recommend it for the price.

Great app. This app is great! The lists for names and places and all the other lists are amazing

So helpful!. Absolutely love the set up of the app and the resources! It allows me to be creative with a boost of help!

LOVE THIS APP. I find when I’m stumped while writing my book I love to use this. So many options and it’s great for creativity

Great. I really enjoy this app. A nice little prompt tool.

Invaluable writing resource!. This was an incredibly useful set of lists. I was happy with list of adverbs, dialog tags etc. but then there's all kinds of other tidbits, like types of plots, dramatic situations, and more. Fantastic book, chock full of awesomeness!

Great app. This app is great. Very helpful when lost for words or ideas. Easy to use. Simple. Perfect.

Very useful. Great app for writers!

Good but could have much more content. I think is is helpful and don't regret getting it, I'm sure I will use it often, but I would like to see a LOT more detail in the lists that are there and others could be added. I'm a novice writer, but even my own research has heaps more details, I won't list them as there are many, but more categorized and sub sections would be of benefit. For example if you click on a character trait, it could take you to a page where it tells you which character types are likely to be associated with it, plus a dictionary meaning and a thesaurus type reference to give you alternatives - synonyms and antonyms. Lists could also have an option to sort by type as well as alphabetical to help inspire writers so they find the right word they want more easily. There's bunches of other ideas I can suggest, but I would say this app could do with more development. Some kind of word map like you see with the visual thesaurus would be great too, making use of touch screen tech. Overall, good, but looking forward to updates

Names. So far my biggest complaint is the names. I sometimes cannot find the appropriate name for my character, and I can't input the name of my character. Other than that, this app has got a lot more of a variety of describing a character in ways I don't think of and that's quite an awesome.

Amazing!. I use this app every time I need information for my writing, it's money well spent. A name generator of sorts would be awesome, however!

Not much use to professionals. I am surprised by the very positive reviews this app has garnered. The content could fit on a few napkins. It consists of nothing more than 37 categories, each with a list of words or phrases. Some lists are very brief - the Conflicts list has eight entries (man against man, man against nature,...) and I'd hazard to say that none are useful to a professional writer. The list of names, which might have been useful, is merely a long, alphabetical list, unsorted by ethnicity or year of popularity. There are much better resources available on the internet, or in books. This app is not worth the money, or even the screen space.

One of the best!. This has to be one of the most well complied collection of things any creative writer can ultilize!

Good Overall. One of the biggest problems I have while writing is coming up with names, and the names list really helps with that! One issue I have though is the amount of information this app has, it simply isn't enough. It would be great if there was a community that could add and suggest new content for the lists, and whole new list all together. That would get 5 stars from me.

Awesome little app! Just what I needed.. Awesome app! It has a list for everything a writer could think of. I was impressed with the ability to define words and save them as notes. Well worth the money!

Awesome!. It's incredibly useful but a little more detail would make this the best app ever!

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Everyone loves definitions so they're worth adding.. The title explains it all. The colors section has definitions, but what about the verbs, adjectives, etc.? What's the point of adding one of those cool fancy words into your story when you don't know what it means? Also, for the name sections, you should have origins and meanings. If you add these it would definitely be a writer's must-have. Everything else is fantastic, especially the new notepad feature.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. This is a great app! I love it. Whenever I need a name or a habit or just an idea I can just look at this app. It is totally worth the money if you like to write. It works great and doesn't crash. Sometimes if I'm bored I just look at the phobias. It is a wonderful app and I highly recommend it for any kind of writers. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🤓🤓🤓😍😍😍✏️🖊📝📝📒📓📕📗📘📙📄📃📜🗄💻🖨

Writer app. I really like this app! I am blind and the app works wonderful with voice over! I love how it offers the name ideas and even gives you history on those names. The word lists are exceptionally helpful as well and allows you to define them as well. The only thing that would be better is if there was a thesaurus option. But overall I really enjoy using this app:)

Amazing App. I find this app very helpful with dialogue, transition words, settings, conflicts, and so much more. Definitely helps when you're stuck on something important, or even little, for a book. I will definitely use this app to help me better myself as a writer!

A spark for creativity. The place this app shines is that moment you've stumbled on a brilliant idea for a story, but have yet to flesh out the details. A definite aid for those of us who keep stumbling into the same characters or scenarios again and again. The one thing that I DESPERATELY wish this app had was a way to add your own items to lists. For example, the 'mythology' list (useful if your sci-fi hunter needs a target, or your king needs something for his royal standard) is largely Greco-roman, and missing such basic Asianic staples as Tengus or Kylings.

Meh. This has a lot of typos and is extremely generic. Found nothing useful at all, so deleted.

VERY useful. This app is truly awesome. I love how it gives you so many suggestions. There are I few things I wish the app had, though. I wish you could add your own things. Like when I noticed a lot of names I knew weren't on there, I wanted to add them. But I couldn't. Also, it shows that the subjects are colored. Mine does not have this. I don't know why. But, anyway, this app is perfect for writers.

Best Inspiration!. Amazing, had such inspiring features!

Love it! But needs definitions. I absolutely love it!! But like everything, there are things that would make it better. I think that there should be definitions for the words and maybe even the verbs because if you are looking them up, then that means you don't know them. Therefore I don't feel like picking one that sounds right then looking up the definition. But this app deserves 5 stars because this is the best thing that ever happened to my writing!

Clever and well executed.. Imaginative prompts for when your brain is dry.

great please keep updated. please keep updated and add more tools I use the iphone 11 pleas keep bugs fixed i like this app

The best. I accidentally pressed "submit" instead of 5 stars on my precious review before I was finished.... Anyway, I cringed when I paid $3 for this, but it's one of the best uses of $3 I've ever made. This app is great for finding names (last and first), and for getting random ideas when I'm stuck. Sometimes I just browse through it when I'm super bored - that's how nerdy I am. Best app ever. Highly recommend it. The note feature is kind of a pain bc it's too basic, but I just use the notes app on my iPod instead.

Awesomeness!!! But...... I wish I could give this app 1,000 stars!! I love love love writing! But sometimes it gets hard to come up with names or jobs. With this app I can do that and so much more. The only things I wish this app had are story beginnings and plot twists. Plot twists are the best! Anyway it is definitely worth the $2.99. I hope you enjoy it writers. I know I do.

YES. I LOVE THIS APP ITS SUPER HELPFUL AND AMAZING 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND

A+. Writer's Lists is one of the bests apps any real writer can purchase when they have a shortage of ideas. It offers many plots, themes, character names, occupations, settings, phobias, talents, and lots more. Basically, if you need it, it's got it. However, one change I wish they would add in the future is the ability to select items from the lists to create a "story profile," if you will so you can record what selections you had made. Currently I'm tabbing back and forth between my Notes app and Writer's Lists, which isn't a problem necessarily, but it's not exactly convenient, either. Overall, I would recommend this app to all my friends that love to write.

Awesome!. I love Writers Lists! It's a great way to expand your choice of words while writing, and I also like having the different categories such as names, clothing, etc because I'm always looking for names that aren't frequently used. You can also mark words, names, etc that you want to save, and they will be saved in a separate column. There are lots of words for each list, too. Overall, this is a great app for writers.

Really really like this but. But it could be so much better! I love being able to scroll through dozens of random words that I normally would never think of when writing! But I always come across cool new words in other places that I think would be inspiring if they were also included in the lists. I think we should be able to add our own words. Maybe download from other people. More updates please! This thing was $3...

Amazing!. I get stuck on characters easily - if I can't think of a name that fits or if I know nothing about their personality or looks, I can't write. With the last names and personality words, this saved me. This isn't a bad comment, I love this app as it is, but I would suggest giving us the option of adding our own words like names and other words that we would like to include, such as a last name we like but don't see?

Perfect. I can see no reason as to how or why this app would receive anything less than a full five stars. It has done everything that I have ever needed and provided me with so many wonderful things to use for my writing. Never again will I have to spend laborious hours researching for the perfect name or random facts or places; it's all there! Get it and you won't regret it

Almost five stars but needs some work 😋. I love this app I use it all the time their are only a couple of thing that would make it better that most of the words Would have matching pictures and descriptions that would help me and other people a lot but over all this app is great😃 The app has only crashed on me once too

Great app!. I write dark fantasy, and after first glance I was like nope. But after I got into everything else it has. Amazing app. Only thing I would add is when you click a word a definition appears like the phobias and such. Well worth 3$. Going to be using this app every time I write now. Yes, you can google, but the app is so much easier to navigate.

Good app...no slang. I appreciate all the different categories that this app has, especially geographic locations. The only thing I wish it had was a 'colloquialism' and 'exclamation/name calling' category. Finding alternatives to 'Holy crap!' and 'You son of a bi*ch!' would be handy. I would love to be able to look up these things here, all in one app. I use the Webster Dictionary app for it's thesaurus...a lot, the full version has slang for some words but not many. It would be nice to find it here!

A great app for fiction and nonfiction!. Stranded on the highway for words? This app will help start your engine and get you back on the road to creativity. After writing six books for McGraw-Hill, I now wish this tool for authors was around before I completed my last set for publication.

Effective Tool. Highly recommended!!

Would be 5 if.... ...there were definitions/explanations for the words in the lists. Otherwise it's an amazing app! Gives topics, then lists so many (and I mean soooooooo many) choices. Great help in writing. I absolutely love the color values, names and types of plots sections. I wish there was also a way to add into a 'saved' folder, some way to come back to it when needed instead of having to go through it all. Yes, it is a bunch of lists, nothing fancy, but if you're looking for the right word, this comes in handy. Best $4 app I've ever bought!

Really love this!. First of all, this is the best app out there for writers who just can't plan their stories. I really like how there are so many lists to chose from, especially the character's physical features. One thing to improve is that maybe you could add definitions along with a picture for each physical feature. And also definitions for the character names, personality traits, etc. Overall nice app ☺️

Update anyone?. I bought this app a year or so ago and I don't know about anybody else, but I would love to see an update besides making it compatible with iPhone 5. Like many people say, it would be great to be able to personally add to the lists, or make our own. Even though there is a good amount of items given, there's only so much you can do with them. Plus, I'm sure there are plenty of people out there like me who already have solid characters they're working on and would love to make lists specific to that character containing their jobs, likes, fears, etc. All we're asking for is a little more freedom and considering we paid the asking price without complaint, I think we deserve it.

Love this app. This app is incredible. Never seen anything like it. This is such an amazing app for writers who get writers block a lot or just inspiring writers looking for the best name for their main character. I love this app so much not just for writing books but for when I have to write some kind of assignment for school. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recommend.

Great update. I love everything about this update: the new look, the new lists. It's wonderful for finding those little details that can give your writing that extra bit of something special, or just browsing for the fun of it (especially when combined with the iPhone's innate dictionary.) I especially appreciate the color values list complete with actual swatches. Thanks for that. :) This app hadn't been updated in about 2 years and then all of a sudden it gets this amazing update and doesn't make you pay extra for it (unlike many other developers). That alone wins my customer loyalty.

Great for ANY WRITER. This app was worth the money. I don't write a lot, but I saw my best friend using this app so I decided to give it a try. It's fun to look through the list for ideas in your story, or even just for fun! I recommend this app to anyone who needs just a bit of help for ideas in their writing. In that case, everyone! It was worth the three dollars! If I need a name for a story, I just open up the app. They give names for almost any shade of color you can think of. And some lists are just really fun to look through, like the Aussie slang and the phobia names. I've been using this app for over a year and it is still worth keeping. I promise you that if you write, this will not be a waste of your money. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, writers and writers-to-be!

Satisfying. Lots of words in many categories, a good variety of names especially. I appreciated that they had niche categories like archaic occupations and nautical terms, both helpful when writing a fantasy. Overall, good purchase with easy interface.

Best App for Details-One Suggestion. I love everything about this app! It's remarkable and extremely useful for details when it comes to writing maybe a short story or even a series. It especially helps me with character appearance when I'm creating an outline of my characters. As much as I love this app, I have to admit I have ONE (just one) suggestion. I would love if every name for the details had a picture attached to it. Just so we could know exactly what it is and don't have to search it. But other than that, love this app!

Almost perfect. Don't take my four-star review the wrong way. This is a fantastic app. Only thing keeping it from 5 is a few bugs and wish list items. The dictionary that pops up cuts off on top of the screen and design could be more intuitive. If I could take some of my own notes and perhaps assemble story ideas using elements from these lists - character checklists, plot outlines, etc., this would easily be five stars.

This app is FANTASTIC!. Or should I say "fantabulous" or "marvelous"? So many words to choose from! I write ALL the time, but I often find myself reaching for a thesaurus because I'm tired of using the same old word. Lists for Writers solves that problem and then some. I also used to spend hours searching for names - enough that my search history looked like I was trying to name a baby - which I no longer have to do. This app is a lifesaver and a timesaver!

Amazing!. Even looking through it I was nearly bursting with ideas. I'm seriously glad I found this because I can have a easier time really getting to know my characters while I am creating them. I seriously like it that I can scroll through and pick things out that fit best for a character. Though for a future update, I think you could add in a brief definition for names. Personally I like picking out a name that fits my character best. Overall a great app for both beginning and experienced writers!

Dismiss all bad reviews. I bought this app roughly a year ago. This app is genuinely good if you are stuck or are in need of something to add to your character. This app offers a comprehensive, long lists of anything imaginable which you can group together in a list and use them as you like. I have created several character profiles using this app and thanks to that I'm working on several characters at once. I strongly recommend this for anyone. The only thing I would like to see is even more lists in the future or adding up to the ones they already have. Otherwise it's very good and I really recommend it. Y'all should add more content tho!

Recommend Highly. Whether you're a writer, artist, or just someone screwing around, this app is an absolute must. First off, everything is nicely sorted into categories, from character naming to personalities to genres to settings and places. Within each category are smaller sections, each dedicated to information that would be useful for whatever you needed. Each of these sections is stock filled, so I doubt you'll run out of options any time soon. But wait! There's more! There's a small note taker in the corner so you can write down anything you like or would like to remember. If you needed to, you could directly transfer something down in the notes simply by holding down on the desired info and pressing "Notes." I wish there were more ways to organize or categorize the information and sections, but other than that, it's an amazing app. I highly suggest getting it, it will definitely be worth the money.

Neat App made even Better. This is a very nicely done app, for all sorts of people , writer's especially, looking for inspiration or suggestions. I'd like to commend the creators of the App for the BRILLIANT move to enable the user to SHUFFLE each list. To my mind, this simple added feature greatly improves the power and flexibility and usefulness of the app. More apps might benefit by incorporating the shuffle feature at places in their design as well. But for now, let's praise this app for it's clever implementation.

Good. This app is good for formulating ideas for new books or books your already starting on it also helps if you have writers block (witch is where you can think of ideas) this app helps you get more ideas with things like names grammar even some plot lines

This App. This is probably the most-used app on my phone. The names list is invaluable, the entire character description section is wonderful, and the whole app just gets your juices flowing. Yes, it would be nice to edit lists, but for what it is, an app with indispensable lists for every writer, it is wonderful and I recommend it 100%!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Love it. Love using this for the list of names they have!

Awesome!!. This is a very useful app--I hadn't used it in a while and had forgotten how amazing it is! Just the colors alone are incredible. I just went in looking for a name, but I'm using a lot of colors and was really impressed. Why haven't I been using this app? I guess NaNoWriMo is helping me kick start my writing--it's been a while!

I love it!!!. I'm a writer and I just love this app! It helps me with last names (because for me they're hard to come up with) and it gives me places for my story! I just hope that in further updates, they can help with Fantasy things like weird/ cool names for lands, different types of animals, things like that!

Great Tool. This application isn't going to write the story for you, but it helps keep your story going. It gives me a way to get back on track quickly. I get distracted constantly by little detours and details, but whether it's a name, a location, or a characteristic, I can promptly look up the info and keep on developing my story. Thanks for the help.

Great!. As a writer and lover of fun facts, this app is right up my alley. I don't usually buy paid apps, but this one is worth its price. It's very useful for times like when you realize you've used "said" thirteen times in the past 500 words and you begin to worry how many times you can simply cut a dialogue tag without it being confusing, or if you're searching for a throwaway name for a background character. Don't be put off by the price, this is a very useful, well-designed app.

Good app. Not amazing and a bit limited but overall a helpful tool

Best app ever. I am a writer and this app really does help, you could also be a therapist and like this because it has phobias (fear) on one list. Also very helpful with birthstones, my bro likes looking at the phobias so it is good for all people!!!!! If you don't want to pay the price your missing out on the best app ever to hit the dang store so if you give it a bad rating because of the price your dumb!!! I <3 this

Limited Options. It is SO frustrating that the lists can't be modified. What a ridiculous oversight! For example, I wanted to add an obscure city as a setting for my story. Nope! The lists are all you get. No adding to them, so I started making notes. Those are a MESS now because the notes can't be organized according to the lists. To illustrate, if you make a note/memo in the setting section, it will appear in the character names sections and ALL the other sections that have nothing to do with settings. I would gladly pay more money for an app with better features. The low cost doesn't make the app a great buy when you can't modify information. I wish I had read more reviews as others brought up these problems.

Writer's App <3. THIS IS LITERALLY THE BEST APP EVER!!!!! Whenever I pulled it up for the first time, I went absolutely CRAZY!!!!! It just had so much stuff in it that is so very useful. The names are the best because I struggle with coming up with names. Overall, I am very pleased with this app. One of the best I've ever gotten!!! My advice: if you're a writer and you want something that will help you in a lot of areas, GET THIS APP.

Needs to be updated for X. Great app but it puts my OCD into overdrive having it letterboxed.
