Comments on Fortelling - Story Writing App for Android
★★★★☆Kara Seibert (Average TOH enjoyer)· Mar 23, 2026
I'm not exactly sure what was going on with the app when I first downloaded it, but the problem seemed to have fixed itself. Now that I'm able to access the app and properly use it, it's very helpful. You're able to put as much detail into your story and characters as you want with almost no character limits while typing. You're able to upload images of both your characters and their story, create species guidelines, religions, cultures, etc. Overall a really good tool for world building!
★★★★★Cherise Brown· Jun 16, 2026
Perfect for writing my books. I'm able to organize my world building into different categories. It makes it easy to keep track of where I'm at in my work. You can say if it's your first or second rough draft or if you're finished and so on. It's a keeper.
★★★★★Eafv 23· Dec 5, 2025
Genuinely 10/10 app if you love to write digitally - I didn't even notice the adds and the free version is amazing with all the features. Compared to other writing engines/tools you can use foretelling for completely free and still have a perfect experience. :)

Yet another app the mandates an update because of "bug fixes". The app is working fine, and I do not want to update it. Looks like I will be uninstalling it and working on MS Word again. STOP MANDATING UPDATES WHEN YOU JUST CALL THEM "BUG FIXES" It is really annoying.
★★☆☆☆kellie Hills· Jul 1, 2026
I'd give this app an easy 4-5 stars if it didn't keep deleting my files randomly and refuse to let me type where the cursor is placed. It just randomly jumps through text and pics a random spot on the page to start typing or to the start of the page when I try to type. It happens 50% of the time. Otherwise, it's a strong app. A few things I would add or change. But the app glitches are frankly ruining it.

I love the app, but I HATE the fact the web version (useful in case you want to work with your laptop, etc) is PAID. Like I get that they need to make money, but they should just make money on the basis of ads if it's on the browser anyway. Dedicated writers can just get premium or something, casual writer are never going to pay for anything

I can't delete anything??? Im trying to work on a project with friends but on both pc and android when I delete smth it either comes right back or stays infinitely loading, I can't get anything done.
