The paper stack · Daedalus touch makes way with file lists of old. The single metaphor is this: The infinite paper stack. Each stack may contain an unlimited amount of sheets, and each sheet can be filled with as much or little text as you like. Reached the end of a stack? Just swipe to create a new sheet. Yeah, it’s that simple.

All-out Gestures · Daedalus is fully gesture-based. Pinch to zoom from the editor to sheet overview. Pinch again to zoom to stack overview. Double-tap to zoom in, swipe to select previous/next stacks or sheets. It’s all very intuitive, awfully natural and beautifully animated. We even let you tap editor margins to move the insertion point.

Modeless search · Daedalus touch features an app-wide, always-on search bar. Matches are displayed live across all views and stay visible as long as there’s a search term entered. Sheets remain editable, navigation remains intact. It’s just how it should be, really. That’s why we search titles and body text. Of course.

Take it to the cloud · In Daedalus, you can sync select stacks to Dropbox and/or MobileMe (iDisk). It lets you choose services on a per-stack basis and offers basic conflict control. You can also import remote files and folders, and even export everything to the service of your choice. And yes, iCloud backup is fully supported.

The web built right in · Need to look up words on dict.cc? Need to check Wikipedia? Google something? Do so right from within Daedalus’ editor. You could even update your blog or keep up with your favorite news sources. It’s built for speed, ease-of-use and minimal incentive to procrastinate... we know how it is.

ePub to iBooks · What if… your iPad text editor could export your work directly as ePub – and into iBooks? Neatly structured into chapters and sections, with optional author information and even cover images. All beautifully formatted, even supporting Markdown styles, if you so wish. Would you love this? We bet you would. And you will.
