A tool for tracking your writing output each day

WordTarget is a tool that tracks how many words you have written in a session or day. There are also functions where you may set targets for how many words you write per session. This app should be used to measure progress only and shouldn't be used to encourage word-count targets. Remember that chasing word-count targets over the course of a few weeks will eventually lead to a writer burning out.

  • Pros

    • See how many words you have written in real-time
    • All of the icons are self-explanatory
    • Click to view a breakdown of your word count
    • A pop-up appears if you hit your writing target
  • Cons

    • Encouraging word-count targets often leads to writer burnout
    • Counts all words you write, including deleted words
    • May encourage quantity-over-quality when writing
    • Doesn't have auto-grammar checking like with LibreOffice Writer
