Tom Hanks develops hipster-friendly typing app

Miss the good ‘ol days of typewriters or weren’t too old to have used one? Well, actor Tom Hanks gets in on the app development game with Hanx Writer. It gives users the ultimate typewriter experience complete with sound effects and sheets you need to roll in. The app is free and you can email, print, and share the work you do on Hanx Writer. There are also in-app purchases that you can make to further improve the typewriter experience. When Hanks described the app for USA Today, he said, “Hanx Writer is just my little gift to the future Luddite hipsters of the world.”

Our world now exists in two eras: Before and After #HanxWriter. For free! http://t.co/bRbVdWnJtL
