Since people are nit-picking, sorry, I meant “locked”. Locked me out of a post and then continued to talk to me in that locked post for several comments, knowing I wouldn’t be able to address those comments.
Is that better? Does that make your admins look better?
Yeah, but I don’t much appreciate being talked down to like a child and then essentially told to be silent. And if that is their forum rules, then you’ve pretty much explained things happened the way they did simply because I choose to bring up an issue with their software in a forum for bringing up issues. This is less about what I did than what they didn’t like.
By the way, I have nothing else to say unless people keep saying stuff TO me, which it seems they can’t help doing despite all my supposed bad behavior when all the personal attacks are directed against me.
I apologize. I commented before I realized that the thread was locked. I was not aware that you couldn’t respond, and I wouldn’t have posted if I had been.
No worries. AmberV purposely locked the thread before you arrived because she didn’t like what I was saying and preferred to silence me instead of just leaving the discussion. Again, wouldn’t have mattered if she just stopped addressing me directly instead of prodding me to say more things she wasn’t going to like.
Read more and write less.
You’d learn a lot if you read what others in here are actually writing in their posts, instead of assuming what you think they mean.
I think I am reasonably justified in assuming AmberV was a female given the typical name convention and the fact that I don’t know these people. It wasn’t meant as a slight. But your suggestion that I read more posts wouldn’t have fixed that unless I saw some post where AmberV specifically said he wasn’t female. Something I don’t really come to the forums for.
“You’d learn a lot if you read what others in here are actually writing in their posts, instead of assuming what you think they mean.”
^ Yeah, follow your own advice, dude. Or “miss”. I don’t want to assume anymore.
Good for you. Are you looking for an applause or perhaps a clap on the back? No need to be rude. I answered a question and if you bothered to read the comments others have posted in this forum, I am not the only one in a “parallel universe”. Have a great day!
My point was not rude, merely pointing out that your claim is not valid.

rendered the app useless
[/quote] Is incorrect. It might not be what you want or expect, however, say that, don’t make sweeping, unsupportable statements.
To the OP asking for factual advice, rather than being confused by wildly inaccurate statements.
Scrivener iOS is stable, though is a somewhat stripped-down version, so don’t expect all the bells and whistles of the full Mac or Win versions.
While there was an issue with syncing at one point, it was an Apple/Dropbox issue and nothing to do with the stability of Scrivener iOS. I believe there have been some tweaks to ensure compatibility with newer iOS versions. Don’t look for upgrades for upgrades’ sake. The old saying, ‘if it ain’t broke’ applies. L&L has stated that further development is planned/underway, though they don’t talk specifics until release time.
Almost every other issue I have seen here and on other forums has been user failure, with occasional internet/hardware issues. Take the time to read the post on setting up Scrivener iOS with Dropbox and it is difficult to go wrong.
Scrivener iOS remains a stable app that is amazingly compact in its code.
I don’t need all the bells and whistles of the Mac version and if you don’t use Scrivener iOS as your main writing tool as I once did, you wouldn’t know what no longer works. Your comment was rude, just like you current one is. There is absolutely no need to accuse others that their claim is not valid or accuse others of “wildly inaccurate statements.” I am not the only one who has found issues with the app. The posts I have been reading are not only about syncing issues. I do find the app useless when I cannot select a sentence without the cursor jumping all over the place or not being able to see my work as a whole like I used to without compiling the entire project. The edit button disappears from the iPhone app every time I open it. I do not sync as I do not need to when I use one device. I’ve read the documentation several times, I’ve had the app since it came out. I was simply responding to the person who asked a legitimate question with an opinion. My opinion. Which I have every right to make as you do. Sorry you’re having a rough day and need to take it out on someone you don’t even know. Again, have a great day, Sir. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.
No one is disputing that you have issues with iOS Scrivener, yet those issues you claim the vast majority do not seem to have. I don’t know if your selection issue on iPhone is fingers, iPhone issues or other, but it does not fit with any of the devices we have Scrivener iOS on in our household. (and yes, went and double checked)
Yes, you can’t (as far as I am aware) display the entire project to view (who really wants to scroll through 90,000 words), but minor annoyance for me, though obviously gets your t.ts in a tangle.
So, as stated, you have made a sweeping statement that does not seem to reflect the experience of the vast majority of users. Let’s just say Scrivener iOS is not for you (but fits the bill for thousands of others).
I’m having a great day, as was yesterday, and no doubt tomorrow.
Ahem. While we appreciate our loyal users, we would prefer that loyalty did not extend to arguing with users whose experiences are less pleasant. I’m sure that the OP benefits from both positive and negative responses to their query.
Confirming that the app is not in fact ‘useless’ is arguing?
If the poster in question had said ‘these points annoy me’ fair call, but a sweeping statement claiming bugs with every iOS update renders it useless does not answer the OP’s question and IMHO defies reality… come on.
No I didn’t, and no I still don’t. But if you don’t like my posts, feel free to leave since you aren’t adding anything to the conversation anyway. You don’t have to reply to me, I wasn’t even talking to you.
Funny enough, I replied to them too. Before you even posted that.
I’m sure plenty of people are gonna rush to your help, with an attitude like that.
Yeah, something like 5 seconds before I did.
Anyways, I showed you how to make the font bigger on your request, you say it didn’t work.
I tried.
You said earlier that there is a website you could download them from… (?)
That is what I’d do. (Especially since I doubt that there is any other solution to your issue.)
I wasn’t responding to you or the emoji challenge you’re facing–I’ve got no help to offer there–I was responding to @Rdale asking where in Windows Scriv the Binder font can be increased. @Vincent_Vincent’s post correctly shows where that change is made in Windows Scriv options.
I’m sorry that increasing the Binder font didn’t help with your emoji situation.
