So disappointing.
I had such high hopes based on the slick and compelling advertising. Signed up right away! But ... it's a website, people. It's not an app that runs with your favorite writing software. It's an online thesaurus and I already have access to plenty of those. The hype is exciting! I fell for it! But there's nothing there to get excited about.

Sorry to hear you had such a poor experience with MasterWriter, this is certainly not the reaction we're accustomed to getting. We will be reaching out to you privately to better understand why the program fell so short for you. I will point out that MasterWriter is so much more than a thesaurus, but I can appreciate that it's not a perfect fit for everyone. I am surprised that it was of no value whatsoever to you, but in light of this, we will issuing a full refund, we certainly don't want you paying for something that was not helpful to you.
THE Best songwriter tool EVER
I don't write a song without MasterWriter. It's the best all in one tool for songwriters EVER. With thesaurus, rhymes, definitions, and phrases all in one place, and one place to keep all my lyrics, it keeps me organized! The ability to write different versions of a song is brilliant. I started with MasterWriter years ago based on David Foster's endorsement. I wouldn't be without it.

I'm having trouble figuring it out. Is there a tutorial somewhere that goes into specifics? Or something like a troubleshooting guide where needs can be addressed?

I have just started to use Masterwriter after having used Songwriter’s Pad forever. It’s as good or better than my old app, and similarly not without its warts.
The fact that the MW mobile app is not the same in functionality as the desktop version is not a surprise, but is no less frustrating.
That said, it’s a great app. I wish it was less subscription and more one time purchase, but I’m happy enough.

Thanks for your feedback Dave, glad to hear you're finding it helpful for the most part. If we could duplicate the desktop layout on a phone, we certainly would, but unfortunately, the space limitations simply do not make it feasible. We did our best to make it as user friendly as possible, but we are working on a dedicated app that hopefully will address some of the issues you are having, we'll keep you posted.

MW is a great tool to improve the lyric writing.
As a non native english speaker, i use it a lot when i need a rhyme , a synonym or an english expression that i'm not familiar with. And i can write all my lyrics on it directly and find them easily. There are probably other functions that i don't use and i still need to discover.

Indespensible Writing Tool
I've been utilizing MasterWriter for the past month while I undertake the first revision of my novel. The numerous ways to search for the ideal word that elevates my writing is simple and straight forward. Working on a MacBook I was also able to easily launch MasterWriter.com in its own app. It would be great if there was someway to integrate MasterWriter into Scrivener. But for now, I am extremely happy with this indespensible writing tool.

Thanks Rick, glad to hear MasterWriter is delivering and that you're finding it easy to use, wishing you all the best with your novel. Yes, while MasterWriter doesn't integrate into Scrivener, one thing I will mention is that if you use MasterWriter in Dictionaries mode, you can easily resize it into a more narrow configuration that will allow you to use it side-by-side with Scrivener. Just wanted to mention that in case helpful.

Great for a "smarter" thesaurus
I bought a Master Writer subscription because I've exhausted the built-in dictionary app thesaurus on my Mac. The options M.W. gives me are incredible. It's like it's actually thinking! Haha. This will transform my novel writing!
