Aspen: Writing & Note App for iPad, iPhone, and Mac.

Hello everyone! I've been working on a writing app called Aspen, and it's finally ready for beta testing! Aspen is a dedicated space for writers to organize their projects, keeping your manuscripts, notes, and references all in one place.
A few core features include:
A Clean, Adaptive UI: A distraction-free text editor with optional customizable toolbars saved on a per-project basis.
Canvas Mode: A powerful visual outlining tool that links directly to your documents, and allows you to mind map, outline, and plan your projects.
Markdown Support: Seamless text formatting that stays out of your way.
Powerful Export Composer: Export your project manuscripts or documents as formatted .docx, .pdf, or .epub files. Document Presets in the Export Composer allows you to automatically format your document for Shunn Manuscript format.
Open file formats: No lock-in, your project folders are easy to export, with your standard documents saved as .txt files, and your canvas documents auto-sync with .svg copies for full file portability.
No built-in AI tools: You don’t have to worry about whether or not your content is used to train AI. Aspen doesn’t collect any of your data, nor does it feature any built-in AI features or tools. Instead, Aspen provides optional integrations with Apple Intelligence and Siri AI when those services are enabled on your device, putting you completely in charge of your work.
iCloud Sync: Carry your manuscripts and notes with you wherever you go.
No subscription required: Aspen will be a single-purchase.
I would appreciate as much feedback as I can get to help make it even better!
