A hand-drawn typewriter for your Mac, iPad and iPhone. Real keys, real carriage, real paper textures. No distractions, just the sound of your own words.
Write like it's 1962. A working typewriter, drawn by hand, in your pocket and on your desk.
TypePress puts a typewriter on your iPhone and iPad and lets you write on it. Press a key and it sinks. The type bar swings up and strikes the ribbon. The carriage slides with every letter, the paper creeps upward, and the bell rings near the end of the line. Pull the lever or turn the knob and the page feeds up one line. No notifications, no toolbars, no autocorrect. Just you, a sheet of paper and the sound of your own words landing.
On iPhone, a touch typewriter keyboard sits under the paper, so every thought is a few taps from the page. On iPad, the machine fills the bottom of the screen and its round keys are tappable right on the illustration. Using a hardware keyboard? The matching key dips under your fingers. Swipe the carriage either way to return it, or grab the knob and roll the paper yourself.
Black, red and blue ribbons. Switch colors mid-sentence and only the letters you type next change. Set the ink heavy, normal or light, crisp or soft, and change it for a single word whenever you like. Light ink fades unevenly from word to word, the way a tired ribbon really does. Make a mistake and type over it, or strike a letter through and keep it on the page as part of the story.
Courier Prime and Special Elite for the classic look. Cutive Mono, Anonymous Pro, IBM Plex Mono, JetBrains Mono and Lekton for clean monospace. Cutive for an elegant serif and Limelight for Art Deco headlines. Every page remembers its own font.
Turn on iCloud Sync and your pages, folders and tags follow you across iPhone, iPad and Mac. No account, no server, just your own iCloud. Lock the app with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode. Both stay off until you switch them on.
TYPEPRESS PR
After your free export, Pro unlocks unlimited exports, extra sounds, typewriter machines, textured papers and wide pages.
Journalers who want a ritual instead of an app. Poets who want constraint. Novelists doing morning pages. Students who would like their tabs to stop watching. Anyone who has ever thought, I just want to write.
TypePress does not suggest, correct or nag. It gives you a machine, a page and a reason to keep going.
Start typing.
