Review by:
3.0/5

Working with complex word processing suites can prove to be both tedious and time consuming, especially if your day to day text processing requirements are quite basic. Growly Write is a minimalist Mac app featuring simple but highly efficient word editing tools, packed in a clean and organized environment.

Finding your way around the Growly Write user interface is quite intuitive: most functions can be accessed either via the app’s main window, or by using the utility’s main menus.

Within the app’s main window, the center area is reserved for the actual text field, while on the right side you can find the font, paragraph, chapter, and document customization options.

At the same time, via the top window toolbar, you can easily switch between the pages and draft modes, zoom in or out the documents,  change the text style, enable the window ruler, and so on.

For your convenience, Growly Write comes with a Draft viewing mode for your document that helps you to keep track of the file’s structure. This way, you can easily monitor the included chapters, sections, various bookmarks or notes, and so on.

However, keep in mind that Growly Write is designed for users that have rather basic text processing functions: it cannot handle equations, drawing, footnotes or other text boxes, and so on.

Growly Write offers support for most common text editing tasks: you can write well structured documents, count the included words, insert tables, quickly switch between various styles, and so on. If you are looking for an easy to use word processor that does not make you deal with complex tools, Growly Write certainly deserves your attention.

What's new in Growly Write 2.4.9:

  • A new preference (in the Appearance pane) draws the title row of tables in a solid color instead of the default gradient. If the cells of the title row are assigned a background color, that overrides the preference.
  • Dark mode in draft view works better.
  • When you saved a document to RTF and then reopened it, some of the document properties (format panel Doc tab) might have changed.
