Description

Word document editor/processor with real-time spell checker, auto save, write formulas, hand draw, speech recognition, translator, export to pdf, etc.. Supports opening from and saving to doc, docx, rtf, html, and txt.


PLEASE NOTE: Please email me at the support email provided below if you find a bug or have suggestions. Please be as specific as you can. Like if the app crashes, I need to know under what conditions. If you don't tell me, I won't know.


Quick scroll to the bottom by double tapping or double clicking the bottom black bar. Quick scroll to the top by double tapping or double clicking the document name area.


This app is the most touch-optimized word app in the winstore. You can open and edit doc, docx, and rtf files. To open a file, simply double click on it in a file explorer or you can launch the app and open it from within the app.


This is as close as you will get to a real touch optimized MS word document processor. This app supports importing images, creating and editing tables, bullets, and many other things.


WORK CLOCK: The clock always remains on top to let the user tell time while working. User can switch the numbers between Roman and Arabic Numerals or move the clock around. User can also hide the clock in the Global Settings Menu.


DOCUMENT TEMPLATES: You can use one of the various templates available or you can create your own templates for future use.


LIVE TILES DISPLAYING RECENT DOCUMENTS: App tile in the start screen will display the recent documents you've worked on.


FORMULA/EQUATION WRITER: Compose and edit formulas or equations.

FIND/REPLACE: Will highlight in real time all words matching what you put in for find. Has replace next and replace all.


HAND DRAW/WRITE: A very useful feature. You can sign your name in a word document with your finger or stylus. If you're taking notes in class, when the professor draw something on the board you can draw it right into the word document. Or you can hand write whatever notes you want right into your word document.


SPEECH RECOGNITION: This app has a Speech-To-Text feature that allows the user to write out a document without typing. Just speak in your natural voice and the app will write out the document for you. Please pause between sentences to allow the app time to analyze your words and translate them into text. Currently supports English, Spanish, German, Italian, French, and Chinese.


AUTOSAVE: This app has an autosave feature, so you need not fear losing your work. You decide how often it saves your work.


SHORTCUT KEYS: Most people who have ever used word processor have muscle memory for Ctrl+S and other commonly used shortcut keys. So, here is a list of shortcut keys that will work. Note that all document editing shortcut keys like Ctrl+B and Ctrl+I also work in addition to the list below.


(1) Ctrl + N -> New document (2) Ctrl + O -> Open document (3) Ctrl + S -> Save/Save as (4) Ctrl + P -> Print (5) Ctrl + F -> Find/Replace (6) Ctrl + Alt + G -> Word/Sentence/Paragraph/Table/Page counts


EXPORT TO VARIOUS FORMATS: You can save to the following file formats: txt, rtf, doc, docx, html, and pdf. The text in the resulting pdf file will fully selectable and searchable.


COLOR SCHEMES AND THEMES: Personalize this app by choosing the color scheme and the button shape you like. There will be more options in the future.


Please note that there is no other word processing app in the store with all the features listed above and more!


You can also print out nicely formatted documents by simply pressing the print button.


I designed the layout to avoid any learning curve whatsoever. You can either use the collapsible round menu or the straight forward menu on the left side. The side menu is also collapsible, giving you a full screen experience.


Trial will give you 7 days full access. After 7 days, the app will go into read-only mode. You can still edit texts like color, font size, etc. But you cannot add new texts or delete existing texts.


Note that the feature list does not contain everything. Too many for me to list. You should play around yourself to find out.


Please email me if you have any question or suggestions for future updates.

    As I Promised by Brenden

    Okay, I promised to change my stars to 5 when a new update came out- I can finally save again! New update, new logo, new everything. Best money I've ever spent on an app. Recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to pay a TON of money on Microsoft Word... Also: This does everything Microsoft Word does and more- and for a lot less.

    More than typical by Tessa

    I was a little skeptical when I first tried it because the other text editing apps I tried from the windows store were little more than basic text editors. Most of them couldn't even print out a simple page of text. Since this app allowed me to use it with all features activated for 7 days, I used the trial for 7 days. Just as it said, the app became read-only after 7 days. By then, I was impressed enough so I bought it. Just as some others have mentioned, the developer seems to be very active with his upgrades. I've been getting half a dozen updates, each adding more features to the app. Can't wait to see what features will be added in the future.

    Perfect for paper by Mary

    Just started classes. The device I bought didn't have MS Word. Had to find a word editing app to write my first paper. Tried out several free and trials. Then I found this one. Used this app to type up my paper and turned it in. After using the trial for a few days, I was sold. Glad I found this app.

    good looking by Clay

    I was looking for an app that is visually appealing to work on some writing. Tried this one out and I couldn't be happier. I wasn't particularly looking for a writing app that had formatting options, but once I started using the options, I actually like having all the options.

    Glad there are alternatives to MS Office by Cassius

    Just bought a surface pro 3. Came with a trial for MS Office. I don't use it often enough to justify spending over $100 to buy the license. But I needed word to work on some documents. So, I did a search in the store and found some alternatives to MS word. Tried out all the trials available and I found this app to be unrivaled. In fact, I don't think anything else even comes close to it. Some of the other writing apps can't even print or they don't even have auto save. I used MS word on my computer at work to open a document I created using this app and everything seems correct. I haven't found any formatting issue.

    Problem fixed. by Lam

    Recently, a windows system update (March 12, 2015) broke my app. I'm happy to report that the problem has been fixed and there is no more problem. Please update to version 6.1.x.x.

    Just lovin' it by LaMont

    The best word processor used that covers all my immediate needs at less than a fraction of the cost. MWP handles everything I throw at it and does it without a complicated training curve. Thanks guys and keep up the good work.
