No More Typewriters!
I got this app just recently and fell in love with it! I started writing all sorts of things on it because I loved how it shut out the distractions of the internet and everything else around me and allowed me to be in my story. However, my favorite thing about it was the typewriter keyboard sound. I LOVE the sound of typewriters. Some of the best novels were witten to the hypnotic rythem of a typewriter and when this program had that sound I squeeled with happiness. And then the update came. Suddenly, my favorate sound was replaced with drips and snaps and other odd sounds I cant really connect with writing. Sure, they sound cool, but they dont really put me in the zone like the typewriter did. The closest one I found to the old sound was number 6, but it sounds more like someone chopping wood to me. I really miss that sound and if anything, I wish they would create a setting so that the old sounds can at least be accessed.
On the up side, the ambiance is very nice in the new version, but I wish there was a volume control. If the ambiance becomes too loud, it distracts me. However, I am VERY glad they added the abbility to look up words in the dictionary without resorting to minimising the program evey time you wanted to look something up. Exceedingly helpful! So, overall, OmmWriter is still an amazing app, but I miss that old sound more then anything. I doubt Ill even use the app in my stubbornness until the typewriter sound is returned by some miracle. I shall keep a sharp eye on any updates and hope for the best.
