Description:uFocus is a distraction-free writing application - its main purpose is to help writers to focus on their words.
uFocus only supports reading plain text files, providing a clean writing environment that lets you easily type your stories. Looking for an alternative to those heavy word processors? Seeking for freshness? You are on the right place to start.
What is uFocus capable of?
● Unobtrusive interface: title and status bar only appear when moving the mouse to the top or to the bottom of the window
● Character and word count on the status bar
● Markdown: easily add headings, quotes, ordered and unordered lists, italics and bold (keyboard shortcuts available). You can then export your documents to HTML, PDF, print them and copy the selection as rich text
● Highlights mode: you can stay even more focused by fading out all the text but the current sentence
● Simply jump from one sentence to the previous/next with CMD-LEFT/RIGHT
● Typewriter scrolling: automatically scrolls the text when you get on a new line
● NoWayBack mode: if your greatest temptation is always to edit your text instead of writing
● Sound mode: experience the ultimate feeling of a typewriter
● Fullscreen: focus on your words and hide everything else that is on screen
● iCloud, autosaving and Versions are also supported
● Choose between three different editor widths, four font sizes and a light and a dark theme
