Typewriter scrolling remains broken

The 2.6 update broke typewriter scrollilng, despite it being mentioned as a “big ticket” new feature on their blog. Support acknowledges the problem but won’t commit to a timeline for a fix.

When you put out a productivity app, it’s not acceptable to break a core feature and not deliver a fix. Imagine if Pages or MS Word broke scrolling and didn’t have a patch ready for 3 weeks.

This app used to be great, but it’s really not ready for prime time. Steer clear for now. If the company’s track record so far is any indication of future reliability, it’s time to migrate to a different writing tool.

Still, the UI is very clean and would work well as a day-to-day tool if the core features worked properly.
