The Most Dangerous Writing App is a web application for free writing that combats writer's block by deleting all progress if the user stops typing for five seconds.
[1][2] It is targeted at creative writers who want to write first drafts without worrying about editing or formatting.
An optional "hardcore mode" blurs out everything the user has written so far, making it impossible to edit before finishing the writing session.
[6] It was reviewed by Wired, Forbes, Vogue, Huffington Post, The Verge, The Next Web, and others.
[9][10] In April 2019, The Most Dangerous Writing App was acquired by Squibler,[11] but the original version remains freely accessible.
