LiveActivities will be degraded in iOS 18. On iOS 17 I could update my LiveActivity around every second (through a connected Bluetooth device). With beta 7 it’s between 5-15 seconds 😫 release notes say they fixed excessive battery usage of Text in LiveActivities. FB14936793
Wanna try cool iOS 17 features? I built a fully fledged 3D scanner. I have a selected audience TestFlight build ready soon. Would like to get feedback! DM me!

Last update was a blast! 💥
ASO tip: don’t use all 100 keyword characters. The AppStore algorithm puts more relevance on your other keywords then. Thanks
@arielmichaeli
for showing me that!

Sometimes I really question the people who are working at the Apple app review team. The person on the other side says my in-app event deep link doesn’t work and he provides me a screenshot from the Mac 😵💫 (my app is iOS only)
Hello to my new followers! I love making iOS apps and I share my experiences around iOS development here on Twitter. Feel free to contact me if you want. 😊
Thanks
@ios_dev_alb
for the iOS dev of the day award. I appreciate it! 🤟🏼
🎉✨ 6 MILLION DOWNLOADS, and we’re just getting started!
Thank you, legends, for making a sensation! 📱✨ Your support and love have taken us to new heights!
Swipe, tap and celebrate with us!
It’s that time of the year. A reviewer wants to see a video of my app in action. My way to deal with it - remove the build and resubmit it and hope for a less nosy reviewer.
God I love my indie hacker life. No 9 to 5 slavery. I choose when I want to work. Rather than working on a sunny day I just go out and grab my bike to gather some fresh new ideas.

Wtf this is possibly the worst in UX I can think off. Making the „Accept only necessary cookies” a one minute process by faking some long running task that does something “large” in a database. 💩
Hey fellow iOS Devs. Are you tired of handling your apps metadata? Then I have the perfect tool for you.
It’s called Metadata for Fastlane Tools and it saves you tons of time.
Early bird discount is available until Monday. So be quick!
#iosdev
My first Mac app is out! 🥳🍾
Metadata for Fastlane Tools is an app that I developed because I found it annoying and exhausting to handle my release notes.
If you are a
@FastlaneTools
user then I dare you to give my tool a try. It saves you tons time!
Lessons learned: Don't put image data into CoreData. The more images you save, the slower your database access gets. Put the images on disk and save a link to them in CD. Then load the images async and update the UI when loaded. My app feels so much better now 🚀
Submitted my first Mac app for beta review. 🥳
Are you a iOS/iPadOS/macOS developer and do you use
@FastlaneTools
for your releases?
Then I have a very powerful and time saving app for you. DM me if you want a beta invite.
Big update! NFC for iPhone is now also a document scanner. Scan documents, run OCR and share them as PDF. The basic functionality is completely free!
I also added an easter egg. 🐣 Can you find it? It only visible on Wednesdays 🐸
I tried the help us grow screen at the end of my onboarding and it works great! I got much more 5 star reviews with comments than before. Thanks iOS dev community for showing me this. 😃
@SqueegeeGod
Not the oil itself is the problem. Processed foods are. When blatantly tweeting something then at least provide some more information or proof.
Gamification is the future of apps! Here is an experiment for non paying users: Watch an ad to get coins and spin the Wheel of Fortune to get free access to the app!
(Not released yet)
SwiftUI Navigation in iOS 16 is awesome! Oh I wish I could raise my deployment target to 16. Nevertheless I’m going to build something specifically for iOS 16 😁
Looks like my new asking for rating strategy is working. I also built a Swift package for that with some inspiration of
@twannl
’s article about rating strategies:
I’m very close to 5 million downloads!! Amazing how far I’ve come in the AppStore. Thanks to everyone who supports me!
What am I talking about? 👉🏻

Amazing! I know the Mac AppStore is not that crowded but
#17
in the Developer Tools category is very cool!
Thanks!
If you don’t know what I am talking about 👇🏼👀
God app review goes on my nerves. They want me to remove my AppPreview video after several updates without complaints. They complain about other content than a screen recording. The best part: In the docs they show AppPreviews with other things than the app in use.
iOS 17 is out now! You should definitely try . I built an amazing 3D scanner into it. The feature is available from iOS 17 only.
Yesterday I scanned a statue. Look how amazing it is 🤩
Get ready to boost your app's success with my new iOS app! The powerful ASO features and seamless iCloud syncing make it easy to manage and grow your app's visibility on the App Store. Download now and take your app to the top!

For f*ck sake. Android is soooo horrible. I’m on r/AndroidClosedTesting to get 20 testers for my app and I’m testing other peoples apps. What people 💩 in there is so much below any iOS standards. On top comes my Xiaomi test phone that I bought that shows me ads in the system UI.
I just got my new paywall videos. UI is not ready yet but the 2/3 video 1/3 UI elements will be the format. What do you think?

I used it for speed tracking of my bike. This metric is worthless with iOS 18. I don’t need to know my speed from 10 seconds ago. Apple clearly says “real time” in their user interface guideline.
@Kelven91
LOL, so I can’t finish my Kanto Raid challenge. I thought the „ends in 7 days“ meant that they are all obtainable during that time window. Well done
@NianticHelp
🤦🏼♂️
Look how cute this little app is!
It’s not – it’s a machine to extract as many $ as possible from you. There are tons of gambling elements in it that make the weaker ones addicted. It’s also a big part of Apples “Services Revenue”.
Soon you’ll be able to create very cool looking QR codes from presets. A first version of the QR Code Studio is already out. More customization coming soon 🚀
I built a little tool to help me manage all App Store translations backed by DeepL translator and Fastlane.
Did you build some tools for your daily development flow? Let me know!
I’m working on an app that combines tracking your bike route with picking up trash from the nature. Beta is available soon. Retweet to get a beta spot! (And follow me or have your dm open)
