Novlr is an online app for writing a novel. What makes Novlr attractive is its uncluttered distraction-free style screen.

As soon as you start typing, all the menus are hidden giving you an immersive environment for writing. I tried the two weeks’ trial and loved the software.

There are many things to like about Novlr including the features like..
– constant saving
– focus mode
– offline writing
– word counts
– organize chapters
– good drive backups
– writing statistics

Currently, more advanced features such as character profiles and outlining are in development. It seems the developpers are attentive to users’ feedback and reflecting their opinions to improve the app.

However, there is just one thing that I don’t like very much about Novlr. It is the price. Even taking account of its ever-expanding features and promised updates, $10 for monthly subscription seems rather expensive to me. For example, Evernote, one of the best online notetaking and clipping software costs $45 a year for premium acccount. Nolvr cost $10 a month or $100 a year. Sounds somewhat steep, doesn’t it?
