What it is

WordSprinter is a simple writing tracker for novelists, students, and anyone else working toward a word count. Tell it how many words you want to write and when you want to finish, and it works out how much you need to write each day to get there.

It doesn't try to be your word processor. Write wherever you like, and use WordSprinter to time your sprints, log your words, and see how you're doing.

Features

• Goals that fit your schedulePick a target and a deadline, then choose which days of the week you write. Your daily target is based only on the days you'll actually be writing, and it updates if you change your schedule or deadline partway through.
• A sprint timerStart a session, pause it as often as you need, and end it when you're done. WordSprinter keeps track of your active writing time separately from your breaks.
• Quick word count loggingEnter your word count at the end of each session, and see how many words you wrote and how fast.
• Am I on pace?See your overall progress, today's word count against your daily target, and whether you're ahead of schedule or behind.
• ChartsTrack your total words, your writing speed in words per hour, the time of day when you write best, and how many goals you've finished.
• History and exportLook back at past goals and every session you've logged. Export a goal's sessions as a spreadsheet file (CSV) whenever you want them.

How it works

1. Set a goal, like 50,000 words by November 30.
2. Choose your writing days.
3. Start the timer and write in your favorite app.
4. End the session and enter your word count.
5. Watch the progress add up.

Your writing stays yours
