If your Hugo blog is stored in Git, you could try out GitJournal [0][1]. It's a mobile based Markdown editor integrated with Git. Many people seem to use it for managing their Hugo/Jekyll blogs.

This looks great! Is it possible to create templates or script workflows in this app?

For example, when publishing new blog entry in my Eleventy site, I have to create a new folder, then create a markdown file in that folder with some specific frontmatter. Can I have GitJournal do that all for me?

Kind of - There is an option to always add specific frontmatter when creating a new file. It's however in the pro version.

I'm yet to implement proper templating support.

Could you please vote on the issue? https://github.com/GitJournal/GitJournal/issues/20

I was in exactly this situation. I had a static site/blog thing on GitHub pages, but the process just wasn't conducive to spur of the moment writing. I nearly went back to WordPress but it's just far too bloated for my needs, so like you I ended up on Ghost. I went with Ghost because it was nice and streamlined, made writing quick and easy and wasn't too bloated. I still need to take some time to develop a super streamlined theme but it's good enough for now!

There's https://www.netlifycms.org/ it has drafts and you are not limited to Hugo with it.
