Write It Down for Mac

A native Mac writing room. Pick a session from one to thirty minutes and write forward. Deleting, pasting, cutting, and undo are blocked. Stop typing for too long and the draft is deleted. Reach the end of the clock and the text is yours to copy. Nothing is saved to disk or uploaded.

Requirements

Requires macOS 14 Sonoma or later, on Apple silicon or Intel. The download page lists the disk image checksum and install steps.

Install

Open the disk image, drag Write It Down to Applications, then eject the disk image.

Activate

After your 3 free sessions, writing in the Mac app requires a license. One license works on two computers, Mac or Windows. Activation needs an internet connection. Activation help.

After payment, return to this page to get your license key. Copy it and paste it into the app's activation field.

Refunds

You have 14 days from purchase to ask for a refund. No reason needed. Contact support with the email address you used at checkout. The refund goes back to your original payment method, and the license stops working on every computer.

Privacy and support

The Mac app keeps writing in memory on your Mac and never uploads it. It stores settings and a local trial session counter in its settings file on the Mac. That counter is not sent anywhere. License activation and checks send license details and a random installation identifier to the license service, never your draft. See the privacy policy, the terms, and support.
