🚨 Wow! App Store Connect has a new Analytics dashboard. It used to be a tab on the main ASC page right after "Apps", but it has now moved to a tab within the app itself "Distribution" → "Analytics".

Additionally, there seems to be a bunch of new metrics too. Is this the dashboard the promised 2 WWDC or so ago? Either way, this is neat.

In this episode of the Inspiring Tech Leaders podcast, I look at Apple's recent clampdown on Vibe Coding apps in the App Store. These AI-powered tools are democratising software creation, allowing users to build apps with little to no coding experience. But Apple is pushing back, raising critical questions about security, control, and the future of app development. #vibecoding #apple #replit #appstore
#Epic Games is #layingoff over 1,000 #employees due to a decline in #Fortnite engagement and revenue. The company is also shutting down several Fortnite modes and has faced financial challenges, including a $1 billion loss after being removed from the #iOS #appstore. https://www.forbes.com/sites/paultassi/2026/03/24/fortnite-financial-loss-leads-to-over-1000-layoffs-at-epic/?eicker.news #tech #media #news

Apple이 vibecoding 앱을 차단하고 있다는 내용이다. 누구나 앱을 만들 수 있는 시대에 iPhone 사용자에게 새로운 개인용 소프트웨어가 도달하지 못하게 막고 있다는 점에서, 플랫폼 정책과 앱 유통 규제 측면의 중요한 변화로 해석된다.

Apple is banning vibecoding apps. A new generation of personal software is emerging, and Apple is blocking it from reaching iPhone users. Everyone can build apps now. Just not on iPhone.
