Typed for Mac ($24.99) is available now from the Realmac online store.

This, coupled with the 7-day free trial, should make it easier for those still curious about Typed to try the app without too much worry. That said, one factor clearly in Typed’s favor is that Realmac is an established company with a good reputation, and it offers a 6-month “no questions asked” return policy for software. Byword is far superior, especially if you’re running a blog.
But it’s still not enough, especially for the price. Q10 is also nice and is in single file, so is nicely portable.
It has plenty of nice (hidden unless needed) functions.

Plus there is no focus and typewriter mode. My favorite thing about the app was Zen Mode. Word is great text editor, no doubt, but its exact opposite of distraction-free editor. Typed is all over the place, from its unappealing custom font, which is a combination of Lato and Gentium Book (both open source), to its strange soundtrack. But hard-core writers may want to wait a while. OmmWriter looks pretty good, and sounds even better. Negative: It does have some big drawbacks though. It's relaxing to write in, and the ambient sounds and music along with key sounds are nice. It's a beautiful, distraction-free, and moderately customizable experience. While Typed doesn’t offer a unique experience, I would have at least expected a consistent one. It would be a nice feature, letting you see more text as you write. Positive: Ommwriter's biggest appeal is how it looks and sounds. Noizio, a free app that provides you with a peaceful soundtrack, combined with Byword is a far better choice. In its current form, Typed is simply not worth its $25 asking price. The sky, rain, and ocean scenes were the best. The other sound scenes were okay, but I found most of them annoying or too minimal. Typed offers a soundtrack of eight sound scenes for Zen Mode. As if you were alone, you'll hear your inner voice clearer than ever and you'll be able to delve deeper into your creative process. Based on a natural setting, it effectively insulates your mind from distractions and sets up a direct line between your thoughts and your words. Thankfully, you can turn translucency off completely in the app’s Preferences, which also stops the interface from lagging so much. OmmWriter is a tool which makes it easier for you to concentrate. The sandy color scheme has a bit less translucency on it, and the dark scheme has none at all, which is appropriate. While I don’t see it as a distraction, I don’t think it helps my productivity. That could be because it’s considered distracting. It’s something you won’t find in Byword, TextEdit, or iA Writer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would recommend checking out their website because they have a free trial that you can test out before actually downloading/purchasing OmmWriter. Transparency is always a welcome feature in any app, and it adds a nice additional dimension to Typed. OmmWriter's best feature is its simplicity and its ability to help you concentrate on actual writing. In the default white color scheme, you can see your desktop blurred behind the background. In little areas, it doesn’t provide focus, but rather distracts the user with unnecessary alterations in font size, a colored cursor, and a side menu that pops up when the mouse is moved, among other things. There is nothing to complain about because it serves the need that it's intended for.Typed for Mac tries to be minimal, but lacks a lot of the distraction-free elements I am used to from Byword and others. The app is simple, minimalistic, and basic at its core. There isn't much of a learning curve, so in my opinion, you will find it very easy to use. It's a simple writing tool, so there's really nothing to figure out. The sound effects are pretty cool, especially when you use a pair of headphones as you write it's beautiful. Being able to set the kind of background I want while writing actually boosts creative thinking in my opinion because it sets the mood I want to be in for that piece of writing. I enjoy writing with the OmmWriter app especially when creative thinking is required by whatever I'm writing. It's mostly stripped down of all the bells and whistles that you are probably used to if you're switching from other writing apps, but it gets the job done and focuses on the main goal, which is writing. If you want a writing tool that you can make use of when you need your focus to be at its peak, then OmmWriter might be ideal for you. Comments: Overall, my experience with OmmWriter has been alright it works as advertised.
