How do I start a writing sprint?
Tap the "Start Sprint" button on the home screen. Choose your duration (5-60 minutes or open-ended), select a project, and begin writing. The timer appears on your lock screen via Live Activity.
What is WPH?
WPH stands for Words Per Hour. It's calculated by dividing your word count by the time spent writing, then multiplying by 60 to get an hourly rate. This helps you track your writing speed and productivity over time.
How do streaks work?
Streaks track consecutive days you've written. Complete at least one sprint per day to maintain your streak. The streak calendar shows your writing history, and you'll get reminders to keep your streak alive (Pro feature).
What's included in Pro?
Pro ($2.99/year) includes: streak tracking & badges, deadline countdowns, backfill past sprints, edit projects, CSV export, sound effects & haptics, and priority support.
Can I export my data?
Yes! Pro subscribers can export all writing data as CSV from the Profile tab. This includes sprint history, word counts, WPH stats, and project information.

Absolutely. 5KWPH is 100% offline and privacy-first. All your writing data is stored locally on your device using Core Data. We have no servers, no analytics, and no tracking. Your data never leaves your device unless you export it. See our Privacy Policy for details.
