TL;DR; Here’s a TestFlight for PocketPB, an iPhone app I’ve been telling Codex to build: https://testflight.apple.com/join/dZ5cp9cU - it’s for people who want to create exercise plans, e.g. a 10k plan, a strength training plan etc.
I had been working on it since 2019 but I paused in 2023 because it had defeated me. A few weeks ago the Xcode AI stuff appeared, and I decided to try it out. I didn’t plan on re-doing PocketPB so fully, but I thought it would be interesting to see how well Codex did. (1/7)

Turns out it did pretty well. I started by asking Codex to create a calendar-style view, which is at the heart of PocketPB. It did that so quickly that I thought I’d best just add some activities to the plan so I can see the calendar with real data. And then I needed to create and edit plans. Plus then I needed to be able to edit the lookups. And then…I figured I may as well try to emulate PocketPB and go beyond that. (2/7)
