Fast Light and Great!
I love distraction free writing and this app makes it easy to love. Only the essential features and nothing to get in the way. The developer has made great strides in improving the feature set and is responsive to support requests and VERY knowledgeable. I can't recommend POE highly enough if you like writing in distraction free environments.
Simply Simple and Perfect!
It does what it says it says what it does! It is simple simple... but exactly what I needed.
Why did I wait?
Insanely in love with Poe. Have had it for a while but just started using it last night. It is a fabulous tool. An easy to use writing environment which inspires creativity. I am delighted.
Very pleased
Very awesome to use. I love the timer. It's not distracting and it takes up my entire screen so I forget that I'm even online. I get a lot done in very little time.
Great minimalistic app
Love this app and keep discovering new features (word count/timer combo) that make me like it more. No frills just does what you want it to.
If Shakespeare had this app...
... he would have completed Timon of Athens and not been so bloody obtuse about the Dark Lady.
Excellent!
I have to admit Poe is one of the best writing tools I have found thus far. I love the white on black. And the word count and timer is a plus. This is a must have for any writer.
Excellent app for small tablets
I particularly like that you can change the display font size to up to 28 points making this a very practical word processor for devices with smaller screens. Poe is a great well-designed piece of software that I can highly recommend.
Sleek Sexy and Super Mega Cool
Convenient beautiful powerful and a very nice bird
Distraction free and with a Raven!
Really nice to use if you are an easily-distracted writer such as myself.
