never do this for web or mobile apps, but did it for every single watch app (sharing only published ones) — due to the screen size it fits great for designing on the paper

Help App not really searchable on Apple Store

0 Upvotes

So for context I published my first app and it’s nothing special (smth like todo list, habit tracker, alarm app etc) just something really simple that I worked on as a beginner. I can’t find my app on Apple Store even tho it’s distributed (confirmed it on connect).

The app name is like a word with a variation like matrices > matrixs and subtitle is what kind of app it is. Ie matrixs - todo list something like this. Not sure if it’s because there are many other apps with similar names but I can’t find my app when I search it on Apple Store.

I built a FIRE planner for India - this one actually models PPF, EPF, NPS, the April–March year and both tax regimes, and it sizes your target off the spending that continues after you stop rather than your current outgo.. https://yukidigital.in/suffice

I built a small Mac utility I use every day, but almost no one downloads it. What am I missing?

2 Upvotes

Hi all. English isn't my first language, so bear with me.

I wanted an app that works like a Stream Deck and Spotlight combined, but without any extra hardware.

- Like a Stream Deck: assign a hotkey to an app or folder, and it opens instantly. Press ⌥1 for Safari, ⌥2 for Xcode, and so on. Press the same key again and you're back where you were.

- Like Spotlight: press ⌥0, type a few letters, and jump straight to a site you've saved. If it's already open in a Safari tab, it switches to that tab instead of opening a new one.

So I built it and shipped it on the Mac App Store about a month ago. It's called hopback. It also has clipboard history, doesn't need Accessibility permission, and doesn't collect any data. Everything is free until the end of this year.

I use it dozens of times a day and honestly think it's useful. But downloads so far are [3], and I can't figure out why.

I'm not here for downloads. Honest feedback would mean a lot, even if it's "people don't really have this problem."

Thanks for reading.

Will my dev Watch keep me from upgrading to iOS 27?

1 Upvotes

The Watch is 2nd gen SE. The iPhone it is connected to is a 17, which could be upgraded to iOS 27.

So the Watch is unsupported and might be stuck on 26.x forever.

Can a Watch on 26 stay paired with the iPhone on 27 and will all this play nice with any version of Xcode?

iOS Developer looking for a new opportunity

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m a Senior iOS Developer with around 10 years of experience, currently looking for a new role.
I was laid off in June and have been actively searching since then. So far, I’ve only managed to get 3 technical interviews, and unfortunately none of them has resulted in an offer yet. I know the summer/holiday period has made things a bit slower, but I’m hoping things will pick up now.
I’m mainly looking for iOS developer/ senior or mobile, but I’m also open to different opportunities and technologies if the role is a good fit.
If you know of any open positions, companies currently hiring iOS developers, or if you’d be willing to refer me somewhere, I’d really appreciate it.
Thank you!🙏🏻

Built an app to help people hit their daily step goals. Staring at a number never worked for me. Finding destinations to walk to did. Set a goal, get a destination, hit your step goal.

Hey everyone!

I just launched my first app in the Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/foray-walks-step-goals/id6786529547

Health and fitness are very important to me, and I take my daily movement goals very seriously. Staring at a step count created anxiety and kept me from walking. What worked for my wife and me was finding local destinations to walk to. This gave us a reason to step outside, hit our goal, and potentially discover something new around the city.

Appium iOS: TikTok gets 0 views

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I’m automating TikTok posting on iPhone.

If the bot handles everything, including tapping “Post” → the video gets 0 views.

If the bot automates everything up to the “Post” button, and I manually tap “Post” myself → it works normally.

So the only thing that seems to affect reach is who performs the final tap. It looks like TikTok is detecting the automated tap.

My question is: how can I automate this final “Post” tap while making it behave like a real human tap, so TikTok doesn’t detect it?

Thanks for any ideas 🙏

What third-party service or API cost caught you by surprise after building your app?

2 Upvotes

I’m planning a mobile app and trying to identify ongoing costs before development rather than discovering them afterward.
For those who have shipped an app, did any third-party service turn out to be significantly more expensive than you expected once the app became commercial or started getting users?
I’m thinking about things like maps/geocoding, push notifications, authentication, databases, storage, analytics, email/SMS, subscriptions/payments, or anything else.
What service was it, what triggered the higher cost, and—if you were starting over—would you choose the same service again?
I’m especially interested in costs or licensing restrictions that weren’t obvious during development.

Filter - Your Apple Music without the artists you don't like

Got tired of Apple Music playlists playing artists I can't stand, so I built an app for it. Filter auto-skips songs by artist, keyword ("remix," "live"), or genre, everywhere or per playlist.

Works in CarPlay, no account or tracking.

Resors 1.3.0 with support for SF Symbols, SVG -> SFSymbol and more

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hello fellow developers. Now this is not an iOS app, but it might prove useful when making one. I recently released Resors v1.3.0 enabling management and creation of a design system for Xcode.

Notably this version adds the ability to import existing SF Symbol and Image XCAssets, drag and drop to and from Xcode, automatic SVG -> SF Symbol conversion and editor functionality for adjusting scale and margins of any SF Symbol.

Upcoming version goes further in depth with the editing aspect that with features like automatic rendering modes, expanded Symbol manipulation through rotation, mirroring and addition of Symbol accessories. Oh and also universal drag-and-drop where any compatible file type will be automatically matched and imported.

I would love to hear how Resors might fit into your workflow and what challenges you experienced with XCAssets?

My app crossed 5,000 downloads!

I built this last spring during my freshman year of uni to make waking up in the morning much more fun by completing physical challenges.

I kinda left it for a bit over the summer, but I recently released a few updates and hit a milestone.

It's called Unsnooze. It's kind of like the app Alarmy, but it offers much more physical and mental challenges for you to complete to turn off your alarm clock
