But even though I actually own most of those apps I do still return to Ulysses because of its comfortable stability and incredible tweakability of its looks.This is the Android Software Development Kit License Agreementġ.1 The Android Software Development Kit (referred to in the License Agreement as the "SDK" and specifically including the Android system files, packaged APIs, and Google APIs add-ons) is licensed to you subject to the terms of the License Agreement. I am not in need of most of Ulysses’ features, and I’m a promiscuous dabbler in writing apps - from Highland to UpNote to Quiver - all of which are really nice Markdown apps, and better options when comparing to iA Writer for more basic text notetaking, organization, and syncing. Still, it’s possible to export files for backup … or put them in Dropbox instead of iCloud. Personally I don’t see that as an issue, much as I never fretted over images in iPhoto/Aperture/Photos being in a proprietary container, or DayOne’s files (same thing) and because Ulysses seems to have proven itself as robust. The thread began because the OP said he loved Ulysses but worried about the (iCloud-based) proprietary container files are saved inside. If you are willing to let iA make the decisions for you on their fonts and their light/dark-only viewing modes it’s a good choice. But my point is that it is pretty different from the design of Ulysses, which trusts users to make their own font/color/background decisions, while offering a lot more for the (additional) cost. I like iA too, enough so that I bought it for both Mac and iOS, though I rarely use the Mac app. iA Writer looks good, but it gets boring for me and I need more customizability If it seems equivalent for you that’s great - I own it for Mac and iOS and use it occasionally (more on iOS these days), but I could not imagine living with one of only two imposed screen modes and one of 3 imposed open-source fonts, and no customizable colors for text or background. Ulysses has far more features and flexibility and customizability. If you consider iA Writer similar enough for your limited needs you should really be comparing iA Writer to different Markdown editors, like MWeb or Typora (free for years now in endless beta, to be a commercial app eventually), or Byword, or Quiver, or even Bear. But in my opinion the apps are so different and are really different types of writing apps. If you are okay with the limitations imposed by their design philosophy of purposefully not giving users flexibility to choose their own fonts or colors, and you don’t need the more hardcore writing features of Ulysses then go for it. IA Writer and Ulysses seem roughly equivalent from my perspective.
