It’s fun when your one star reviews still start with “App’s amazing” 😅

good night for baseball

beta 2 lock screen customization buttons look niiiice

Finally making some progress in rebuilding my Now Playing Card in SwiftUI! (this is attempt number who-knows-how-many over the years) Still really struggling with that top safe-area inset. During the drag gesture my background really wants to pop into the safe area (vs animating) 🤔

New bucket list ✅: Officially got the {{FirstName}} {{AppName}} treatment on Upgrade! Even bigger deal than the WWDC keynote shoutout 😅

Finally remembered to get a picture this time 😅 Thanks to everyone who came! Had a blast hanging out

If you're in STL come hang out! I'm bringing all my devices running the latest beta OS's so if you aren't as dumb as me putting beta 1 on everything but want to check them out today's your chance 😅

ok, the new Foundation Models API is really kind of impressive Was able to hack in an (ugly) "Magic Mix" feature into @darknoise.app in about an hour that creates a mix from a prompt that you can edit and then save really quickly

Right now I have this nice fill animation (using Lottie) when you toggle favorite state. I've spent my entire layover attempting to replicate this with the new SF Symbols variable draw effects but haven't been able to figure it out yet 🤔

The indie fair at @communitykit.bsky.social is popping! Come check out what indie app makers in the community are building till 4pm And if you get here soon enough we still have some @revenuecat.com plushies 👀

If you’re still in Cupertino today you should come by @communitykit.bsky.social ! I’m doing @launchedfm.com LIVE with @hiddevdploeg.bsky.social and @polpielladev.bsky.social at 11am (there’s still a few tickets!) Then I’ll have a booth at the Indie Fair for @darknoise.app and Framous from 2-4pm

iOS redesign conversations are so weird @thillsman.me

Separated my existing Dark Noise icon into three layers and threw it in to the icon builder Not sure how I feel about this. Obviously will have to play a lot more with it

We had a plane buddy landing in Denver 👀 Also Action Mode on the iPhone doing some heavy lifting smoothing my shaking hands as we landed on this one 😅

Officially on my way to San Jose for #WWDC25 ✈️

ya'll have no idea how excited I am for this. We're shooting for the moon this year I want to find every mobile community organizer in the world to make this year's #Shipaton a massive global event And all you companies who wanted to get involved last year? hit me up 👀

Getting a haircut I saw a line at the GameStop next door. Chatted it up with people in line curious how long they were planning to wait (it was 3pm) when an employee came out and said “everyone currently in line can preorder to guarantee a Switch 2 for tonight’s release” So uh… I got the thing 😅

Finally breaking down and upgrading the ole 2018 iPad Pro so I can actually test everything new they give us in iPadOS next week 😁 Waited till now so I’ll still be in the return window when I get back home just in case they don’t really give us much this year 😅

1 week from today is Launched LIVE in Cupertino with @hiddevdploeg.bsky.social & @polpielladev.bsky.social! 🚀Can't wait to hear the full story behind their crazy swag 😅 (and maybe give some away 👀) We're almost out of tickets so snag one before it's too late! lu.ma/htlbbu10

I can't believe WWDC is less than a week away! 😯 If you're going to be around Cupertino next week hit me up! Would love to hang out

Finally, the TextEdit for iOS update we've been begging for for almost 20 years

Ooooh this should be fun! 👀

What's everyone's favorite sticker/pin company these days for indie devs? Need to stock up on Dark Noise/Framous/Launched swag before WWDC

🌽👀

This is going to be a fun one 😄 There's still some tickets left so if you're going to be in Cupertino during WWDC come join the fun!

Looks like I’ll see you at the spaceship in June! 😁

Genuinely one of the best hangs at WWDC every year (outside the RC Bashcade of course 😏) Get a ticket while they last!

5 years ago, attending a live show at WWDC was on my bucket list, and now I get to host one! 🥹 Huge thanks to @communitykit.bsky.social for the space to make this happen Register now to get your ticket! And see if you can guess my guests to guarantee one 😅 This is gonna be a fun one 👀

If you’re in St. Louis during WWDC you should pop over to LaunchCode for a keynote watch party! 👀

I know I’ve been a bit eye-rolly 🙄 waxing poetic about the RevenueCat team lately, but watching everyone heads down building in-person in the mountains during the offsite this week has been quite the sight to behold

Screening Empire Strikes Back at freaking Sundance on May the 4th with fellow cats to kick off the @revenuecat.com offsite 😁

The last 2 years at @revenuecat.com have probably been the hardest I’ve worked, and most fun I’ve had in my professional career Wild I get to work with this incredible team every day. And now, I’m about to get off a plane in Salt Lake and join them all in the mountains for a week 🤠

👀

Dusting off my crusty event photography skills to shoot speakers for @deepdishswift.com this morning by distracting @joshdholtz.com while he's trying to get the room ready to open the show 😅

For reasons I no longer remember I generated this pizza grimacing Genmoji a while back and now every time I search pizza in the emoji picker (which is often during @deepdishswift.com 😅) I have to stare at this terrifying creature

Officially Chicago-bound for @deepdishswift.com! ✈️
