Hello everyone and welcome back to another video it is Francesco here and welcome to Keep Productive YouTube channel if you're brand new
But if you're regular welcome back
So in today's video we are doing a brief overview of the application you disease
Now Ulysses has been knocking around for quite a while now and it is one of the most popular
writing tools out there
Now the application is available on Mac and iOS as well as through the set apps
Description so you can check all of that out below now just before we dive into this one
I wanted to thank the sponsor for this week here on the Keep Productive YouTube channel
and that is... Setapp. Now Setapp, for those who don't know, is a service allowing you to rent Mac
applications for a set monthly fee. You get access to 120+ Mac apps
Including the likes of Ulysses. So definitely check that one out. It's really accessible
You can download it
And once you have it you have accessible in your menu bar to download any apps you need at any time
So just before we dive into this one, too, you can also check out my for writing tools roundup video
which does include Ulysses so if you're looking to compare it to so that other
Writing tools are specifically 10 or 15 others, then that's the best bet for you
So let's start with what is Ulysses now uses claims to be the ultimate
Writing app for Mac iPad and iPhone now the pricing is pretty simple its price monthly and yearly
the monthly price in the u.s. Is 4 dollars 99 and the yearly price is
$39.99
Now the application is available as I mentioned on Mac and iOS devices
It uses iCloud
Synchronization so that all of you obviously all of your writing is matched up to both devices at any given time
now you can access it with a
14-day free trial or you can get it through the set up subscription and set up subscription is nine dollars 99
accesed to 120 plus either
Now the features are pretty prolific inside of Ulysses
A lot of people sort of Fame it for its attractive UI and interface
It's also got a distraction-free experience which makes it all the easier
To type up all of your different notes and even all of your sort of long-form pieces now
It's got a markup based editor, which means that of course when you're editing. It's really simple
It's basic to get started with they've got a real keyboard focused experience
So you can pretty much navigate the entirety of Ulysses without leaving your keyboard, which I know a lot of writers love
It's also got text plaintext abilities as well as well as a host of custom themes as well
Now there is a mode available called the typewriter mode, which makes it a bit more
streamlined when you're trying to get words out and
sort of like get through a lot of pieces and you can organize all of your pieces into
Folders as well as grouping them based on project and subject using the hierarchical
organization structure now you can also view attachments as well as going to filtering search and
All of the pieces as you write them are automatically saved and backed up on iCloud
Now you can access additional
Storage via the external folders on Dropbox which is helpful and for each PC
Right, you can have something called a writing goal
Which basically allows you to set a goal and aim towards it as you write and you get a notification when you've completed that goal
Now you can export in a host of different file formats including markdown HTML PDF Word and ebook and they all look great
there's also export to
WordPress as well as medium as well as a live preview mode so that you can see exactly what it looked like
Now I'm going to include in the description
a four outline of the feature table break down main reason I want to do that is because some features are available on iOS and
Others aren't as you can imagine. The Mac is more of the sort of home experience for Ulysses writing
Now as you can see here, this is my account. I started writing a bit of a book a couple of weeks ago
I've actually been running it in notion
But in this case I've transferred to Ulysses and as you can see you can break it down at different chapters
And of course all of that writing experience does look fantastic
Now in my opinion Ulysses is a well-priced solution for tool writing
Obviously if you're a full-time writer, it might be much better for you, especially because it is a premium experience
Or even a hobbyist that is looking to find a distraction-free tool. This could be a great solution for you
So guys remember you can get this one through the Setapp subscription set up other sponsors today
So it's pretty convenient and useful way to check them out below
So when I further ado guys, I wanted to thank you
Obviously, we'll be doing more features of on writing apps too, but we're gonna be diving in over the next couple of weeks
So do stay tuned and I'll see you guys very very soon cheers!
