What iA Writer is

iA Writer is a paid writing app available for Mac, Windows, iPhone, and iPad. Writers can work offline, export in extensive formats, and use publishing tools. Version history is also available for returning to earlier states of writing. The listed Windows plan supports Windows 10 or later, while the Mac plan requires macOS 10.15 or later; the iPhone and iPad app is offered as an App Store purchase. iA Writer lists a 7-day trial but no free plan, and prices are not provided for the Windows or Mac plans. The maker, iA Writer, was founded in 2005 and is headquartered in Gockhausen, Zurich, Switzerland.
