Along with the release of Ulysses 2.0 for Mac, The Soulmen also today released Ulysses for iPad. It is a brand new app that is just as powerful and feature-rich as its Mac counterpart and is a perfect companion app when you’re on the go.

Ulysses III has been my favorite writing app on the Mac for a long time now. Ulysses was released on the the App Store back in 2013 and since then, I have done majority of my writing in it. Over the years, it has truly been an “Incredibly Impressive” single-library, single-window plain-text writing app and it even made the list for “The Highlight: Editor’s Choice of 2013”. Today, The Soulmen have released version 2.0 of Ulysses on the Mac App Store, the biggest update to the app since 2013. If you own an iPad, there’s also a brand new app…

Google has just released a standalone, native Google Calendar app for iPhone. The company had released a refreshed app for Android a few months ago and has been made available for iPhone on the App Store today. Although we’ve only managed to play with it for a few minutes, it does manage to leave us very impressed. The app supports not just Google accounts, but also works with your iCloud, Yahoo, Exchange or other CalDAV accounts that you have already configured on your iPhone (including my favorite, FastMail). Each account is assigned a specific color and the ‘New Event’ compose…
