To create a new document, tap the ‘’plus’’ symbol in the top right of the editor, or the bottom right of the sidebar. If you want to search for a specific document in the project, pulling list down will reveal a search field you can use for that purpose. The draft folder contains a document with some nonsense in it, I’ve created a notes folder with a subdocument called pan grams, there’s a photograph of a chandelier in the research folder, and the trash contains a document which I’m planning to delete later. In the sidebar, you’ll notice the project binder has some files which I’ve been working on in Scrivener for Mac. Let’s load up this freshly synced project, and take a closer look at the interface. When you do this, a blue icon will appear indicating the project hasn’t been synced with your Dropbox folder yet, tap the ‘’sync’’ icon, and Dropbox will store your project in the cloud.
You can also drag projects created on your iPad into the Dropbox section by tapping ‘’edit’’ then dragging the project using the bars on the right-hand side. In Scrivener for iOS, these projects will appear in the drop box section in the sidebar, and in the icons on the right.

From now on any projects in this folder can be synced between your iPad and the Dropbox folder on your Mac or PC. Now tap ‘’done’’ and Scrivener will be linked to this folder. It’s recommended that you create a dedicated subfolder for this, the app will create one for you if you like. Once Scrivener has been allowed access to Dropbox, the app will ask you where you want to sync your Scrivener projects. If you don’t have Dropbox installed, you’ll be asked to sign into your Dropbox account from within the Scrivener app. If the Dropbox app is already installed on your device, it will load up and sign you in automatically.
Tapping the ‘’sync’’ symbol in the top right will bring up the option to link a Dropbox account. If you’ve been using the desktop version of Scrivener on Mac or on Windows, you might be keen to sync your existing projects with your iPad. You’ll notice that your new project now appears as an icon on the right as well as in the project list on the Left. It’s also possible to do this by swiping the sidebar from left to right. If you want to return to the project screen anytime, you can then tap ‘’projects’’ in the top left. Once you’re done writing, tap ‘’done’’ in the top right to leave edit mode. Your draft folder will already have a blank untitled document waiting for you, tap anywhere in the editor pane on the right-hand side to bring up the cursor and keyboard, and you’re ready to start writing. The research folder can store any kind of documents including media files, and the trash will hold on to anything you remove from your project until you empty the trash to delete it permanently. The draft folder is where you’ll be keeping the majority of your writing, and any text documents in this folder can be compiled into a single manuscript whenever you want. A Scrivener project contains three special folders. In the sidebar on the left, you’ll see your binder where your project files are organized by default. If it’s your first time using Scrivener, it’s worth taking a look through this, but if you want to dive in and get writing straight away, you can create a new project by tapping ‘’create project,’’ give it a title, tap ‘’create’’ and your project will load up. Here you’ll find a written tutorial which is actually an interactive Scrivener project.
Launch the app from your home screen, swipe through the tips if it’s your first time using the app and you’ll find yourself at the project screen.
