Autor

A writing app for books. Your book is a folder of plain text files on your own disk: readable without the app, and kept safe while you write.

SafeHistory and backup copies of every chapter

What it does

  1. Writes chapters as plain text in one folder per book, so nothing is locked inside the app.
  2. Keeps a history of every chapter and, if you choose, backup copies in your own Dropbox.
  3. Keeps a book in step between your devices through Google Drive, if you turn it on.
  4. Works with an AI assistant of your own choosing, which may suggest but never overwrites a chapter.

Google Drive

When you turn on "Keep this book in step" and sign in with Google, Autor makes a folder for the book in your Google Drive and keeps the chapters there in step with your devices. Autor asks only for access to the files it creates or that someone shares with it, never to the rest of your Drive. Details are in the privacy policy.
