First, hello CHYOA community! I’m a pretty new author here and had a question that I hope hasn’t been answered (I haven’t been able to find it through the search function). I do 90% of my writing on my iPhone, and for the most part, mobile integration is excellent! It’s a big factor in why I have been so much more productive on CHYOA than I have ever been anywhere else. But I’ve run into an issue that’s held me up from publishing my last two chapters by a couple days. The text formatting menu doesn’t seem to work on mobile. By that I mean, italics, bold, and the like. I always have to finish the story on my PC, which I am not always in town to have access to. Is there a way to use it on mobile that I’m just not seeing? Thanks for any help! I hope to participate in the community more in the future.
It's easy enough. Turn it off. Don't try to use the drop-down menu at all, do it all by hand like we all did before the drop-down was a thing. https://chyoa.com/chapter/Chapter-Formatting.320683 Everything you need to know to start pro-writing is right there in the guide.
Happy to help! I had the same issue when the drop-down was implemented and ended up having to solve it the same way.
If it's like my phone, highlight the text and press one of your keys for tools at the bottom left of your keyboard keys. For example, if I press the Cog/setting key or the button to switch to Numbers/Emojis, the font tool bar just seems to show up on mobile.
