SCREENWRITING FOR iPHONE, iPAD & MAC

Just write.
The page formats itself.

One tap turns a line into a scene heading, character, dialogue or transition. Return moves on to what comes next. Export a PDF that's ready for production, and pick up on any of your devices where you left off.

A sample page: 12pt Courier with standard margins, just like the PDF.

Everything a draft needs

Built for writing anywhere: on the train, on set or at the desk.

Quick-format writing

Six buttons above the keyboard: Scene, Action, Character, Parenthetical, Dialogue, Transition. Return moves on automatically, and parentheticals bring their own brackets.

⎘

Smart paste

Paste a scene from anywhere and it arrives formatted: headings, cues, dialogue and transitions are recognized for you.

PDF

Industry-standard PDF

12pt Courier, 1.5" left margin, page numbers, and correct page breaks with (MORE) and (CONT'D). The page count in the app matches the PDF exactly.

Fountain in and out

Import .fountain or text files from Files, Mail or AirDrop, and export Fountain that round-trips cleanly to other screenwriting apps.

Every feature is included. When you're ready for more, a single one-time Cut to Fade Pro purchase unlocks unlimited scripts on iPhone, iPad and Mac. It's not a subscription, and nothing in your library is ever locked.
