We Can Draft Stories on the Medium Mobile App Again

As I opened the Medium app this evening, I noticed the little green plus sign button reappear in the bottom right corner on my phone screen

Two months ago, I wrote an article on Medium expressing my frustrations about no longer being able to draft stories on Medium’s mobile app. It was a shocking and disappointing product update for me personally because half of the articles that I’ve published on this platform came to fruition through the mobile app.

For me, and I’m sure for many others as well, it was a convenient way to jot down random first sentences or paragraphs and have them already formatted and saved in the same platform that they were ultimately going to be published on.

However, when that feature was taken away, I noticed a slight decrease in my writing productivity and it also inconveniently added the extra step of having to transfer drafts from my iPhone notes to the Medium app.
