I truly do not understand why anyone would want to use any of these things. I will never ever pay for a subscription to anything.

As for all these productivity apps, for the life of me, all I have to do is grab a pen if Im out on the street or something and write it down, aor take my phone and email a word to me to trigger my memory.

As for writing stories, MS word is fine.

I cannot imagine an app making me faster. I type at 100 wpm.
