Description

Ulysses is your one-stop writing environment for Mac, iPhone and iPad. Its pleasant, focused writing experience, combined with effective document management, seamless sync, and flexible export, make Ulysses the first choice for writers of all kinds. ++ Apple Design Award Winner 2016 ++ “The app is amazing. An absolute delight to use. Well done.” – David Hewson, Bestselling Author (The Killing) ### A Text Production Powerhouse Ulysses’ markup-based, distraction-free editor lets you focus on your most important task: Write, edit, and write some more. Formatting is kept for later, so you can completely immerse yourself in the text. Ulysses’ uniquely streamlined toolset covers the entire writing process, and its clean and simple interface will boost your productivity. From first to final draft, from prologue to closing chapter – Ulysses keeps you in the flow, so you can get stuff done. ### All Your Texts, All the Time Everything you’ll ever write is stored in Ulysses’ unified library. You can manage projects of all kinds and sizes, be it novels, diaries or study notes – they are always saved, and automatically in sync. And since Ulysses offers feature parity across macOS and iOS, it doesn’t matter where you are or when inspiration hits: All its tools, and all your texts, are always at your fingertips. ### Built-In Proofreader and Editing Assistant Write with confidence, thanks to Ulysses’ integrated grammar and style check. Available for over 20 languages, it analyzes your text and offers informed suggestions for capitalization, punctuation, semantics, redundancy, style and more. ### Create eBooks, DOCX, PDFs and HTML Ulysses’ export is flexible enough to cover any writer’s needs: Transform your text into beautiful PDFs, Word documents or eBooks. Or export HTML code, ready to be used anywhere on the web. You can even choose between a variety of pre-made formatting styles for all kinds of purposes, or create your own and share it with other users. ### Publish to WordPress, Ghost & More Do you blog? Ulysses’ offers best-in-class publishing to WordPress, Ghost, Medium, and Micro.blog. You can post to WordPress, Ghost and Micro.blog from right within the app – complete with images, tags, categories etc. Publishing to Medium works just as easy, and all four offer a built-in preview to proofread before submission. ### Pricing Ulysses requires a subscription. We offer monthly and yearly subscription plans. They include a fully functional trial, so you can test Ulysses (including export and sync). There’s also a special discount for students. All plans unlock the app on Mac, iPhone and iPad, and feature full synchronization. ### Questions Please visit ulysses.app for more information.

  • Great Software, terrible engineering

    For the fifth time, all of my documents have disappeared. Ulysses insists an issue with iCloud, but it's not, iCloud works fine. The software is good, I enjoy writing in it, but at this point I'm going to have to move my work to somewhere else. I never know if what I worked on is still around.

    I'm a novelist and I use Ulysses for drafting books, and it's by far the best tool I've ever used. I tell all my writer friends to try it out and many of them have since switched over, appreciating how lightweight and well-crafted it is. I hope to write many more books with it :)
  • Great writing app!!

    I’ve been using this app for years, and rely on it, but the last few updates have resulted in constant “downloading…” status with my documents. This makes it very difficult to get any work done. Again, started happening with the last couple of updates. QA oversight? An unreliable app is a useless app, and that’s the sad state of Ulysses right now.
  • Great program!

    The revision mode puts the Grammar Nazzi in me to shame! It catches even the small things separated by multiple sentences, such as repetitiveness. This app really takes all the presentation worries out of the picture, letting me focus more on my own creativity.

    I bought and subscribed so I could have an app that fulfills its promise to allow me to write my projects on any of my Apple devices, and here years later when I try to do some edits on my phone, the docs I need are stuck “Downloading…”. I rarely need to use my phone for editing, luckily, but every time I try I get that same problem. With multiple phones over the years. 100% FAILURE rate. I read online that it’s because you rely on Apple’s sync mechanism and it has caching/space optimization problems. How about: I am YOUR customer and YOU aren’t providing the level of functionality you promised. If you can’t trust Apple’s mechanism, WRITE YOUR OWN. Yours is the only app I use that has this problem. That tells me that the other apps have written their own sync code.

    I think its good, but I also think the price is a little too high. I would use it more if the prise was a little lower.
