Hanx Writer expands recreating the permanence of a typewriter with the convenience of your iPad and iPhone.

Every Hanx Writer document can be emailed, printed – shared! – with a personality as unique as the person who creates it.

And, Hanx Writer is on the go! Enjoy the tactile thrill of typing up text messages, emails, notes and more in most third-party apps that use a keyboard.

Explore the complete Hanx Writer typewriter collection: The Hanx Prime Select is writers best friend (and it’s FREE); take the Hanx 707 on any journey and admire the elegance (and the fitt-fitt) of the Hanx Golden Touch. Each machine is unique.

And now, there’s more! The Hanx Matterhorn is born of Swiss Precision - sharp & imposing; The Hanx Del Sol glows bright & brilliant with promise; and the Hanx Electric will help you write your story, your way.

You already know how to work them – so get writing!

Pros and cons of Hanx Writer app for iPhone and iPad

Hanx Writer app good for

I love the app, but it doesnt work on other apps so well, iv bought the 99cents keyboards... Will you guys make it work??? Please take a look into it... Its to slow... But loved it!
Barulhinho de máquina de escrever, funciona bem com teclado externo. Como alternativa gratuita, melhor editor distraction-free.
this is a pretty good app but it wont let me write more than one document and i have too keep tap tapping in order to erase every letter!
Im a bit old-fashioned and love using the app for old fashioned letters to friends and family. I also use it for free writing to do simple documents that can be used as blog posts. I love the typewriter sound, and Ive pared my iPad with a Black ZAGG Bluetooth keyboard, which gives me the full QWERTY keyboard and punctuation- and still allows the Apple keyboard spelling corrections as well. It helps me keep productive and is a great addition to my writing tools.
Easily one of my favorite and frequently used apps. I use the 9.7" iPad Pro with a Bluetooth BrydgeAir Keyboard and it makes the ideas flow easily. The app keeps CRASHING, and oftentimes my keyboard wont work, so I have to close the app, and then open it back up again. If the developers can figure that out, this will be the "go to" writing app. Also, itd be great if you offered this on OS X since the MacBooks keyboard is thoroughly impressive to write with.
I love this app and it is really a lot of fun to use in pretty much all my apps but the only thing I dont like is how you cannot hold down the delete button and delete multiple letters/words but rather have to press the delete button down every time you want to delete a letter which is very frustrating. Otherwise great app!

Some bad moments

Great aesthetic and feel but crashed two dozen times over the course of typing three pages in just a little over an hour in a single session. I use an Apple Bluetooth keyboard with an iPad Air 2, no other apps open or running in the background either, everything up to date. Sorry but I cant recommend until this glaring issue is fixed. Touch typing with a physical keyboard just beats the onscreen iPad keyboard.
I write. A lot. This app is cute but not at all practical for any kind of editing. It jumps around, and getting to the line you need to edit or delete is almost impossible.
This is simply a different set of sounds for key clicks. I dont understand why anyone would want this or pay for this. Is Tom hanks short on cash?
NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO TYPE IN PORTRAIT VIEW ON IPAD! Thats insane especially for an app thats based on typing ! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Previous Review xxxxx Skeuomorphic app on iOS 7, but not iOS 6 No support for iOS 6 Apple has no more direction. They completely abandon what made them great (2.5 D skeuomorphic icons and apps since the "trash can" from 1984) and go on to copy Windows and Google with an ugly flat UI, only to promote an "editors choice" skeuomorphic app like this one. The sad part is, I like this app, but apple wont let me put it on my iOS 6 iPad, even though I purchased it. There is brilliance and simplicity in 2.5 D.
This is really a great app. I usually HATE skewmorphic design, but something about the typewriter presentation just really hits the right note for getting into the flow of writing. Theres just one problem: the app crashes about once every half a page when using a Bluetooth keyboard. Its a real shame, but I cant recommend this app even a little bit. It shouldnt be marked with an "Editors Choice" badge; it shouldnt even be on the AppStore until this is fixed.
App itself is beautiful. But using the keyboard in other apps doesnt work right at all. Would love to see an update/fix especially for the large iPad Pro as well.
