RE: @viticci@mastodon.macstories.net

At what point will this man finally admit that he's a developer?

Last night my finances iPad ended up in multi-window mode and she had no idea what happened or how to fix it. Looks like there’s still some work to do for the iPadOS team.

Congrats to @luckkerr for being this weeks lottery winner with MindGrid: A Logic Puzzle! MindGrid is a challenging logic puzzle game! In the game you’re provided with a set of predefined rows. Each of these rows provides clues, indicating how many tiles are correctly placed and how many are misplaced. Your goal? Use logic and deduction to determine the correct placement of colored tiles in a single attempt.

Check it out and leave a review!

Congrats to @lonnie@iosdev.space for being this weeks winner with Relog: Task Logger! Have you ever wondered when you last fed your fish, took your medication or chatted with a friend? With Relog, you can keep track of when you last did things, and optionally be gently reminded when you haven’t done those things in a bit.

I know Lonnie puts a lot of thought and effort into his work. Check it out and give it a review!

RE: @xlth@mastodon.social

Whether you need this or not, you might as well use the free code!

Also, is this image not just perfect?

@mattiem@mastodon.social Loved your post on package traits in Xcode.

I’ve got a local package trait working via swift build --traits, but I can’t find any way to toggle it in the Xcode UI. Articles say it should be in the Package Dependencies view in Xcode 26.4, but I’m not seeing it.

Right now the only way I've found is manually editing the traits array on the XCLocalSwiftPackageReference in the pbxproj. Am I missing something in the UI, or is that the only way currently?

Congrats to @gregggreg@sfba.social for being this weeks app of the week with WalkStar: Move & Groove! Get motivated to move with the app that plays music only when you’re walking or jogging! If you stop, the music stops, so keep moving to continue the grooving.

Don't forget to check it out and drop him a 5 star review!

Googles AI is great. Can't wait for it to power Siri.

I built https://theapplottery.com to help indie devs get traction and reviews.

Getting someone to review your app can feel like pulling teeth, so the idea is simple: devs help devs. Submit your app and each cycle a random app gets featured.

Hoping if enough apps get added organically, the reach grows beyond just the developers submitting.

Would love feedback!
