Create your project
Flow is a minimalist writing app for novelists, built to stay out of your way while you draft. It gives you a clean workspace with essential novel writing tools; notes, chapters, snapshots for version control, autosave, export options, and plenty of themes and fonts to choose from.
For the smoothest experience — linked autosave directly to a folder on your device — we recommend Chrome or Edge. Safari and Firefox work too; Flow saves in the browser and you download a .flow copy when you save.
Flow is free to use and doesn’t require an account. Your writing stays on your device, not on Flow servers. Please take a moment to review the Quick guide, Terms of Use, and Privacy Policy so you know how saving, backups, and local storage works.
Pick a save location for your Flow project (.flow). The linked file autosaves your draft, notes, snapshots, preferences, and writing analytics.

Export project
Markdown, HTML, and Word keep bold and italic. Plain text flattens formatting. Exports are separate from your .flow project save.
