The smartest and cleanest screenwriting software out there. Our tools are constantly improving to keep up with the pace of the modern writer in a moving world.
Reading is just as important as writing. Arqo helps you do both.
File → Save As → Final Draft FDX. (FD12 default. Older FD: File → Export → Final Draft 12.)
Scripts → Import → drop the .fdx. Done. Scene numbers, dialogue, revisions, all there.
Export FDX from Arqo. Open in FD12. Compare. (Then keep working in either.)
Sign in on iOS / Android. Same script. Same editor. No "mobile mode."
Yes. Locked scene numbers, A-page numbering, dual dialogue, revision marks. Verified by golden round-trip tests against FD12.
Yes. Round-trip is bidirectional. Use Arqo for mobile + Story Memory; export FDX for production.
Final Draft licenses don't transfer (it's not our software). But your Final Draft .fdx files do — import them into Arqo without conversion.
Yes. Character, location, scene intro, time-of-day, character extensions, and transitions — same keyboard flow as Final Draft. Cross-project recall surfaces names and locations from your other scripts.
