An App for Smartphones/Tablets

User Interface (UI) / User Experience (UX) · World management · Created by jmckendry

It would be really nice to be able to easily access World Anvil through an app on my phone or iPad when I'm not at home and able to work on everything. The amount of times I get an idea and just want to be able to access my world on the go is insane.   I know this is probably a lot of work, which is also probably why there isn't an app for it, but just in case nobody thought of it before, here's an idea.

The Team's Response

Thank you so much for suggesting this! You'll be happy to hear that this is already in our plans. Our app will not include the full functionality of a World Anvil website, and will instead be a lightweight version. In the future, please make sure to check and read through previously accepted suggestions to see what is already in development.

    With Offline functionality please. Some people live/travel/ Work in remote areas, so if the app can save an offline version to upload later that would be great.

    One hundred percent. When inspiration strikes, I don't always have a PC with me. Most of my writing is done on my phone. This should absolutely be the very next thing that is developed.
