iA Writer offers a visually appealing, distraction-free environment, but its high price requires users to be deeply committed to that experience over other options.
Ulysses combines a solid layout with additional features like goal tracking and copy editing, making it a versatile tool for both writing and note-taking.
FocusWriter stands out for its flexibility and customization options, but is limited to Windows and Linux, appealing primarily to serious writers seeking an open-source solution.
Despite being the simplest of the alternatives, FocusWriter’s stat tracking and customizable interface add meaningful value, although the lack of support for macOS users reduces its appeal.
