First Draf app for iPhone and iPad

A personal space to dream and write, all of your own ... First Draf is a minimal text editor designed with a balance of simplicity and usefulness. By constantly asking, ”What’s the simplest way to achieve this?”, every feature is carefully considered to ensure it doesn’t get in the way of your writing.

While everyone’s writing habit and preferences may differ, the goal is the same — to put our thoughts into words. First Draf exists to make this easier and more enjoyable. You can use it to pen down your thoughts, craft your message, write notes and ideas, and even to compose your essay.

It is my deepest belief that we should all make room to pursue our dream, and mine is to make a living building an app that I’m proud of. Theres a lot more in the works, but even as it is today, First Draf is an app I personally use, every single day. I hope you will too.
