  6. v39iOS
    This is a massive update. It’s still the same app, just… better and even more beautiful than before.
    
    ## Liquid Glass
    This version fully embraces Liquid Glass. We updated the app across the board, including but not limited to:
    - The library, dashboard, Quick Open, toolbars, buttons, popovers for images, links, annotations, etc. etc.
    - You can finally resize the dashboard (iPad).
    - You can finally have sheet list AND dashboard open (iPad).
    - The editor now has a large bottom inset (aka Overscroll), so the transitions from reading to editing and back are much smoother, especially when using the onscreen keyboard.
    - You can now create new sheets from the Library (iPhone); these will either end up in your main Inbox or in “Project › Extras › Pending”.
    - The iPhone on-screen keyboard gained a very prominent close button.
    - We even updated the app icon to match the new look.
    
    ## Swipe Actions
    We added swipe actions to both the library and the sheet list.
    - A primary action specific to the current group or filter (such as “Reveal in Group”)
    - A full contextual menu as secondary action.
    
    ## Improved physical keyboard navigation
    We completely reworked keyboard navigation. Use…
    - left/right arrows to switch between panes
    - up/down to select groups and sheets
    - Return to begin editing
    - CMD-Return to end editing
    - We urge you to try it on iPhone.
    
    ## Editor Focus is now “Hide Interface” (iPad)
    - Hit CMD-. to get an editor-only view.
    - Hit CMD-. again to show the rest of the interface.
    - You’ll love this.
    
    ## Share/import projects
    You can now share whole projects as a zipped archive.
    - To import a project, open it via the Files app (or via AirDrop, which is kind of cool).
    
    ## Copy for Substack and Basecamp
    You can now copy your texts for use on Substack and Basecamp.
    - Most formatting is supported; some limitations apply (images won’t work).
    - On Substack, we even support buttons (via raw source) and Spotify previews (via text links).
    
    ## Editor Themes
    We have added two options for editor themes.
    - Quotes can have a large font size.
    - Some outlines can be hidden.
    This resulted in TWO new default themes.
    - D26 builds on the system palette and utilizes the new styling options.
    - D26 Mono is a toned-down version, perfectly suited for monospaced fonts.
    
    ## App Intents
    We have revamped our integration with Spotlight and the Shortcuts app. New actions include:
    - “Find Sheet” and “Find Group”, with configurable filters.
    - “Import File”, to convert any given text file into a sheet.
    - “Search in Ulysses”, to open the in-app search with a pre-defined search term.
    
    ## Other improvements
    - You now start text check via the Dashboard.
    - You can now set Favorite/Material status via the Dashboard.
    - Setting, showing and editing goals is much more straight-forward now.
    - Reworked the line width setting for iPad, allowing for a narrower text width in the editor.
    - Syntax highlight for Swift code snippets.
    - New color for group icons and keywords: brown.
    - Search finds sheets and groups from archived projects.
    - Many smaller tweaks throughout the interface, including keywords, export, menus, the toolbar…
    
    ## Bugfixes
    We fixed a lot:
    - Uploading images to WordPress for weird filenames.
    - The issue where you could copy, but not paste, text as rich text into other apps such as Pages.
    - A crash that occurred when rotating a Plus- or Max-sized iPhone into landscape.
    - Ulysses launching into a blank screen when triggering the “Create Sheet” action (e.g. via Widgets or Control Center)
    - A rare case of missing footnotes in PDF export.
    - Issues with copy & paste of code snippets.
    - The issue where the library trash would show trashed sheets from archived projects.
    - The insertion of PDFs via the Shortcuts app.
    - A bug where some app settings would be reset on launch.
    - **stretches legs and arms**…

  11. v38iOS
    This version introduces a couple of changes to the Library:
    - The iCloud section is now called “Notes”.
    - The On My Device section is now called “Notes (On My Device)”.
    - You can now swap the Projects and Notes sections in the library settings.
    - You can now hide (and show) the Projects Archive via the section menu.
    - You can now hide the global filter section (this will add an “All” filter in the Notes section).
    - The Inbox now displays a sheet counter by default (you can disable this).
    - You can now collapse the library sections by tapping on the section titles.
    - You can now hide the Trash, as long as it’s empty.
    - You can now decide whether the contents of your projects should appear in the global filters (All, Last 7 Days).
    - We have removed the Introduction section from the library; the intro was painfully outdated, and all of its relevant content is now available via our Help Center.
    
    Fixes:
    - Fixed an issue with publishing to WordPress , if the sheet contained images with special characters.
    - Fixed some strange results when reordering groups via drag & drop.
    
    We have also added 60+ new group icons requested by our users, including a rabbit, a paper plane, and… popcorn.

    - You can jump to the corresponding sheet.
    - You can also jump to the actual link(s) inside that sheet.
    
    ## Date Correction
    The Dashboard can now show the creation and modification dates of the current sheet.
    - You can adjust the creation date.
    - You cannot adjust the modification date.
    
    ## Critical Fix
    We have fixed an issue which could lead to an empty library after a system update, or after setting up a new device. We’re aware that this was a shocking experience for those affected, even if nothing was actually lost (the original library was “set aside” for some reason, and a new, empty one, was displayed instead). If you’re still having this issue, don’t hesitate to contact our support team.
    
    ## Other Improvements and Fixes
    - When publishing to WordPress, marked text is now exported as… a marked text.
    - When exporting as ePub, links in our Table of Contents now actually link to… the contents.
    - Our exporters are now better at handling sheets with large images.
    - We now support equations in TextBundle files inside external folders, so: {external [text (equation) bundle] folder}=1.
    - We fixed various issues with Dynamic Type and VoiceOver.
    - And we fixed a couple of obscure crashes and bugs (for example, we fixed a crash in the crash reporter, which sounds funny, but really wasn’t; ok, it was kinda funny).
