I liked the simplicity of formatting but it is so glitchy! I wrote 66 pages and it "lost connection". Usually when it did that I hit retry now and it would reconnect and I could keep writing. But it "lost connection" and wouldn't reconnect. So I hit reload page and it DELETED all my work back to page 11! I have no way to restore it. The backups that saved everyday only backed up since page 11. So now I have lost my entire script and have no way to restore it! This is a complete nightmare! DO NOT USE.
After writing 8 pages and saving to test it, if it gets shared with other teams. Waisted 60 mins and task incomplete. The coding team needs to pull up there socks. While sharing if the app YouMeScript is clicked then automatically the screenplay should appear not a blank page.
Looks cool, but it isn't worth paying $20 just to work offline. Google apps are meant to work offline, so why can't I work with this offline too?
Wouldn't work on Google doc.
This app started out as such a great thing, providing easy formatting for script-writing. However it has become an absolute nightmare. Trying to move dialogue blocks around, or even just making revisions that change paragraph length significantly, has caused so many weird fritzs within the program. I keep having paragraphs not show up when printing, or even disappearing on the screen and sometimes appearing elsewhere. Its honestly such a massive pain in the butt, and I have no idea how to fix any of it.
This was the worst site I have ever had I will spread this word as well. Not good at all. The typing cursor was too slow, the pages would close and open autimaticly. This website is the one thing I will never try again.
Permissions won't work. Window opens and closes. *shrugs*
Complete lack of flexibility and based on a very personal assumption of how a script should look like. After a couple of minutes you'll realize this was created by amateurs. Even uninstalling this is a nightmare
Terrible
Tells me that YouMeScript is not private that I can be hacked. No, thank you. I will just stick with either Celtx or Amazon Storywriter which both do the same as the YouMeScript. Disappointed.
this is inactive as of december 9th. i can't use it at all. sucks but for the fact that i had saved a pdf copy on the google drive. there has to be more accountability for this app. the developer posted an apology but that's not good enough when you need to work.
Had issues with it everyday. I kept getting "null" requests and the program would automatically delete changes that I made.
It was great. But now it's no longer working. Please fix it.
The app seems useful but I can't seem to get it to connect with google. It won't open the actual document on google drive, and when I try to share it with someone it only allows them to view a picture of it.
I love it! I found work around(s) for some of the buggy features it has. I read today that the develop will have to close it in December. Update 3.22.24. Make sure to save your files to work with other programs. I have a script that will not update and now I've lost it.
I love this app, it makes teaching screenwriting graceful and efficient. BUT I have one BIG problem with this application. It freezes when updating on a regular basis. A window comes about Connecting to Google, and it is highly frustrating especially in a classroom setting. Is there a way to avoid this problem? Is it a network speed issue? Thank you. Other than that it is a solid 5 stars, but this issue is causing me grief everyday.
LISTEN BUDDY, I'M GONNA MURDER SOMEONE. I SPEND HOURS ON THESE SCRIPTS AND I'M SO CONFIDENT ABOUT THIS PROGRAM'S AUTOSAVING ABILITIES. THEN THE PROGRAM STOPS WORKING FOR WHATEVER REASON, I RELOAD THINKING ITS NO BIG DEAL, AND WHAMMO, TEN PAGES ARE GONE. THE SCRIPT WAS FIFTEEN PAGES LONG. THAT'S TWO THIRDS OF MY WORK LOST TO CRAPPY PROGRAMMING. IF YOU'RE WILLING TO ROLL THE DICE ON THIS ONE. SAVE. YOUR WORK.
