I finally made the move to Final Draft after being somewhat unsatisfied with the other options available and it is supposed to be the premiere screenwriting software on the planet. The desktop app is fine, my only beef being the exorbitant cost of what is basically a word processor with automatic formatting.
As for the iPad app, I made the mistake in thinking I could seamlessly work between my laptop and iPad. But first, syncing is terrible compared to other apps in a cloud based era. You can back up to Dropbox, or to iCloud, but these are backups and do not sync to one another. A frustrating experience after using Celtx, where I could pick up where I left off on my iPad or iPhone. Second, and more importantly, the typing on the app is just bad. For an app that is just a typing app in essence, typing is a nightmare. It just doesnt input the keystrokes as any other app Ive ever used. Missed keystrokes causes misspelled words that l have to constantly go back and correct, and then correct again. The only solution is to type very slowly and make sure each keystroke is correctly displayed on the screen. Too frustrating to actually use.
Yes,I realize its free, but not really. I bought into the ecosystem of Final Draft, and on the iPad side of the world, it is a fail.
