Who just released a new app? Me! 🥳 Meet Alba. The app to help prevent me from doomscrolling in bed in the morning. #shipaton

Building apps with heart. The title sounds a bit.. umm... cheesy? Not sure what the word is. But it's definitely worth a read. It's about putting your heart into it. @RevenueCat revenuecat.com/blog/growth/a…

If I want to build an app that needs a dead simple backend solution, what would you recommend? I prefer something that's completely free to start and only pay when the app gains traction and it won't break the bank. Supabase is great, but anything else?

I just launched my new app, Cambodia Temples! 😬 As someone born from this incredible motherland, it has always broken my heart a little when travelers visit Cambodia, see only Angkor Wat, and leave without realizing how many other breathtaking temples are hiding across the country. 👇 cambodiatemple.com/

After almost 6 years of amazing in-person and virtual events #iOSDevHappyHour is taking a break. We'd like to thank everyone who's been along for the ride, and ... May all your pain be champagne, and all your bills be 100 dollar bills! 🍻 iOSDevHappyHour.com

Having the urge to start a new Xcode project again instead of doing the marketing. Please send help!

Many years as an iOS developer, and I just know that iOS apps can use other built-in fonts other than the default SF font WITHOUT having to import them manually. developer.apple.com/fonts/sy…

In Xcode 27, you can convert project configuration file format from Property List to JSON.

I asked iPhone Duo owners which poses they use the most. Didn't expect so many replies... so I compiled them. 😅 TL;DR for devs: support closed, open portrait and open landscape first. The other 3 can wait, unless your app needs them.

Many interesting videos uploaded to my channel recently: • Hero Images in ASC • How to build for HomeView • RocketTrace by @twannl • Agents for SwiftUI • iPhone Duo APIs

Adding support for iPhone Duo is quite tricky. There are just so many poses, and I can't afford to buy one to try. If you have an iPhone Duo, would you mind sharing with me what poses you use the most? And what poses are the least important that I shouldn't bother that much?

Being a solo indie dev means I have to make every single decision by myself. If you were me, would you lean more into your strengths? Or would you work on the area you're not very good at?

Staying late at night... doing some work alone while the house is sleeping... this is my way to recharge. ... and I know that when the morning comes, I'd regret staying too late and promise myself I'd go to bed early. 😆

Most things in life aren't one or zero, true or false, or black and white. The perfect workout and the perfect diet don't exist. No one is 100% introvert or 100% extrovert. I call this... a slider. One of the most valuable skills I've learned (and am still learning) is to ask, "Where on the slider does this fall?" rather than, "Is it good or bad?"

My favorite quote from a children’s book, Wonder, by R. J. Palacio.

Alba now supports iPhone Duo. Just because you have a fancy iPhone Duo, it doesn't mean you can doomscroll from your bed. 😉 P.S. Please don't ask for the inner display UI. I won't have any good answers for you.

Also... screenshot in iPhone Duo in portrait only has 2 curved corners? Well... it makes sense... but it looks a bit weird..
TL;DR for iPhone Duo screenshots: - You can mix portrait & landscape screenshots - If your first screenshot is landscape, it's the only one shown in search results - If your first screenshot is portrait, multiple screenshots are shown in search results -> first should be portrait Thanks for investigating @alpennec!

Improving an app with 100 daily downloads is not the same as improving an app with 0 to 2 daily downloads. It's obvious in hindsight, but tell you what. I tried to optimize the paywall when my app has an average of 2 downloads a day. 😅
