Having auto-expanding snippets while writing in Ulysses is a big time saver.

I’ve compiled many snippets over the years for entering commonly-used text, and for quickly posting special characters like →, ⌘, ⌥, and ⇧. I regularly use TextExpander to automatically expand snippets of text on my Mac, and it’s one of the features that makes Ulysses on iOS feel so complete as a writing app. And the whole organizational structure can be easily traversed with swipe gestures, or via keyboard shortcuts. I enjoy being able to rename groups, assign groups with easily-identifiable glyph characters, and select multiple sheets inside those groups for gathering meta data, moving, or exporting. You can also export multiple sheets as a single composition, a great feature for long-form content. You can create a group to house multiple sheets related to a single project, and rearrange those sheets in a logical order. Ulysses is easily adaptable to virtually any type of writing style.

And if you don’t happen to have access to an external keyboard? There are plenty of built-in software shortcuts as well. Keyboard shortcuts allow users to quickly browse through a group of sheets, add Markdown formatting to an in-progress post, search the contents of a post, and much, much, more. The creators of Ulysses have been great about supporting keyboard shortcuts on the iPad Pro, as evident by the large number of available shortcuts that change based on context.
