History
Ulysses was named after the novel by James Joyce.
The Ulysses software was originally released for MacOS and in version 2.5 support was added for iPhone and iPad.
Ulysses 2.0 became the next milestone version of Ulysses. A 2.0 public beta was released in 2009.[4] With the release of Ulysses 2.0, the software was re-branded under the name of The Soulmen.[5] The major upgrade included a new interface, bookmarks for texts, a Document Trash and Project Templates. In addition, all parts of the software have been receiving updates.
The license for Ulysses has been a subscription model (SaaS) since version 11.[6][7] The standard version of Ulysses is also available on Setapp.[8]
On June 13, 2016, the software was awarded the Apple Design Award.[9]
In 2024, the software was updated to the 35th version.[10]
