Cloud sync feature is one of the most requested feature from our users, it's already in our development plan, hopefully it will be available very soon, stay tuned !!!
WriterJournal has two types of backup mechanisms: manual backups and automatic backups. Both are local backup systems. In manual backup, a user needs to select where to save the backup file. In auto-backup, the user doesn't need to select where to save the backup file every time. The user only needs to set up an auto-backup configuration once, and WriterJournal will automatically backup users' data periodically.
The first thing you should do is to make a manual backup file immediately, and then you should troubleshoot the issue. From WriterJournal 2.39 onwards, we integrated "Document doctor" component which automatically detects and fixes potential errors in your document. If it still failed to load, then please follow the instructions below:

1. Enable Settings -> App settings -> Dev tool.

2. Navigate to the Dev tool page from the navigation menu on the left.

3. Select "Fix corrupted document" and then select "Diagnose" from the pop up menu.

4. Select your "corrupted document" for diagnosis.

5. Copy the diagnose results and send it to our support email address: feedbackpocketapp@protonmail.com for investigation.

So I have never bothered writing an app review before, but this app is SO exceptional that I had to leave my appreciation here. As a writer, this app blew me away. The interface is so intuitive, comprehensive, and customizable to the point where I can use my phone to continue working without my laptop if needed. I have run into some slight bugs occasionally, but the team is very responsive and I have full confidence that they're working hard to fix and improve the app with every update, kudos!👍

It has good features. Italics, bold, underline, strikethrough. Font resizing, choice of sans serif or serif fonts. Text alignment to right, left & center. Optional indent. Can choose dark or light screen. Can send files to Google Drive and can manually send files to internal storage using Share. Used the app offline with WiFi off. Have installed it on a number of devices for testing. Like it, thank you.

It's simple. Easy to use. Good organization. You don't have to name your chapters or scenes, which is something I dislike in other apps. If I find I want to work on a project elsewhere, it's very easy to export. I really like that they gave me a tab button since phone keyboards don't have that functionality. All around, if you like to write and you want to be able to do it on the go when the inspiration strikes you, this is one of the best ways to do it.

This is one of the best apps I ever discovered. I was looking for a completely offline writing app so I can write whenever I wanted to. And this is the perfect fit! It's very simple to use. It's completely offline with no tracking, no data collection, and no ads. When you are finished writing, it allows you to save and convert your documents into pdf very easily so you can save it on phone, laptop, or desktop. Award winning app in my opinion. I bought the premium without hesitation! Thanks!

I've been looking for a good app to write on my phone for years - one that looks good and is customizable. The text analysis tools are useful as well, and have helped me break some bad writing habits I didn't realize I had. Also, exporting to many different filetypes is really easy. The outline function is A+. This app does all of those things and it does them really well. The free version is good on its own, but I paid for it to support the developers. Give this app a try, you won't regret it!
