(beat) for iOS

(beat) for iOS is a Fountain-based screenwriting editor with scene tools and document interchange.

Our take

Draft a portable screenplay on mobile

Text-based storage, index cards and scene completion support a focused writing workflow.

Keep in mind: Interchange and revision behavior should be checked on copies of important scripts; the iOS app is described as a companion to the fuller Mac version.

What you can do

  • Write with automatic screenplay formatting
  • Organize index cards and scene numbers
  • Export PDF or exchange Final Draft documents

Good for

  • Screenwriters comfortable with Fountain markup.

Consider alternatives for

  • Teams requiring a verified feature-for-feature replacement for their desktop production system.

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 18.0.
  • Interchange and revision behavior should be checked on copies of important scripts; the iOS app is described as a companion to the fuller Mac version.

Privacy & permissions
