Description
Highland Pro is a better screenwriting app — one you’ll want to use for everything you write.
Highland’s clean design and innovative tools help you focus on words, not formatting. With support for Mac, iPad, and iPhone, you can write anytime, anywhere.
“Highland is just a cleaner, purer way to be creative.” — Phil Lord, Writer/Director of The Lego Movie, 21 & 22 Jump Street

Created by screenwriter and novelist John August, Highland Pro is built by writers, for writers.
Its distraction-free tools help you get things written:
- /Lookup. (NEW!) Quick answers at your fingertips, from definitions to rhymes to world facts, without leaving your draft.
- The Shelf. (NEW!) A place to store snippets of text, notes and to-do lists. Scared to cut a chunk of dialogue? Store it on the shelf.
- Title Page Builder. (NEW!) Match the industry standard or create your own custom design, complete with images.
- Custom Pages. (NEW!) Need a preface page, cast list or location rundown? They’re just a click away.
- The Navigator. (Improved!) Get an overview of what you’ve written — and what’s left to write.
- Headers and Footers. (Improved!) Easily create custom headers and footers, going way beyond the page number.
- Templates. (Improved!) Choose among Highland’s 14 customizable templates — including Screenplay, Multi-Cam and Manuscript — for perfect no-fuss formatting.
- Themes. (Improved!) Go beyond Dark Mode with 12 unique themes in a range of styles to suit any mood, or build your own with our improved Theme Builder.
- Revision Mode. Track your changes in different colors, complete with stars in the margin. Available for all documents, not just screenplays!
- Writing Sprints. Get more written with focused writing sessions.
- Full Screen Mode. The ultimate distraction-free screenwriting experience.
- In-line Notes and Synopses. Keep your notes right where you need them.

- Character Highlighting. Works in both the Editor and export.
- Gender Analysis. Check the male/female balance in your screenplay.
- Automatic scene numbering, including custom ranges.
- Best-in-class PDF Melting. Screenplay PDFs are no longer frozen in carbonite. This was Highland’s breakout feature, and remains unmatched.

Highland is built for today, and the future.
- Speed. From scrolling to previews, Highland is blisteringly fast, using the latest, native Apple technologies.
- Great typography. Highland features exceptional typography right out of the box. Writers shouldn’t have to look at ugly fonts.
