ProseEdit is a mighty word processor which allows easy editing of larger and structured documents and puts real text editing capability in your pocket - whether you want to write a shopping list, a novel, or a full technical report…
• Developed specifically for the iPhone and
iPod touch
• Not a cut-down desktop app
• Not a scrunched-up tablet app

In ProseEdit you build your document up from ‘chunks’. A text chunk holds one or more paragraphs of text, while other types of chunk form lists, sections, figures and even tables.

Text editing within each chunk is done in situ with a full range of typing support and text editing tools. However, with a swipe of a toolbar you can also work with whole chunks: from moving and copying, to splitting them into paragraphs, sentences or words - making rearranging content virtually effortless.

Other excellent features such as an interactive document index and an always-available scratch document result in a truly powerful editing environment which will let you tackle all your editing challenges efficiently. Better still, ProseEdit is highly configurable - so you can make it work just how you want it to.

ProseEdit deliberately separates content and formatting so you get to edit in a compact fully-wrapped view in your favourite fonts safe in the knowledge your document will be formatted consistently using the styles you specify giving almost total control over the look of your document. You can preview what you are working on at any time.

Overall, if you think you cant do real text editing on a phone thats simply because you havent used the right editor yet.
