In the first release of 2026, we are introducing a new full-width Markdown preview mode in I Write Like along with various bug fixes.

Full-width Markdown preview

When you’re writing Markdown, it is convenient to have a split screen preview of the rendered output. This feature has been available in the new I Write Like from day one. However, sometimes you want to see the preview in more detail or just read the rendered content without distractions. To address this, we’ve added a new full width preview mode that allows you to expand the preview pane to occupy the entire width of the window.

This option is available in Markdown PreviewFull-width preview.

(Note that on mobile devices, the preview is always full width when in vertical mode.)

Bug fixes and improvements

  • Improved loading performance.
  • Fixed selection issues in the editor.
  • Fixed race condition in “Read aloud” when pausing.
  • Fixed declutter mode activation when entering or exiting full screen.

Premium features

We made Typewriter sounds and Style highlighting features available only to premium users.

I Write Like depends on your support to keep improving. Please consider supporting us by upgrading to IWL Premium. Thank you!
