TigerDine v1.2.4 is out on the App Store and TestFlight now to fix the crashing bug! Hopefully everyone updates quickly so I stop getting crash reports lol.

I also wrote a blog article talking about exactly what went wrong and why: https://ninjacheetah.dev/2026/04/20/imagine-rit-broke-tigerdine.html

Imagine RIT Broke My App (because I suck at handling errors)

Imagine RIT is right around the corner, and a visiting chef that will be here during it completely blew up TigerDine.

Hi Everyone,

Would appreciate some help. I have 4 TestFlight links — one for each OS my next app update for @SnippetsStudio supports. There are 10 spots available in each. Please only accept the invitation if you have time to test the app. Shouldn’t take a whole lot of time to do so. This update was a complete code refactor. You can accept multiple invitations if you have those devices that support that OS.

iPadOS / iOS 18 (https://testflight.apple.com/join/PTtfxq2f)
macOS 15 (https://testflight.apple.com/join/X21PYBAQ)

iPadOS / iOS 26 (https://testflight.apple.com/join/qzEy1ZH9)
macOS 26 (https://testflight.apple.com/join/D44C7rMV)

Bug reports can be through screenshot and submitting through Apples system screenshot UI OR preferably through GitHub at the following link: https://github.com/JTostitos/snippets-enhancements-bugs

Your help is greatly appreciated. 🚀 Boosts also appreciated

I'll be spotlighting one app each day this week, starting tomorrow with Vinyls 3.0 🎵

Switching between Mastodon and Bluesky constantly broke my flow. That’s the exact reason I started building Maia.

Curious—how are you all managing multiple decentralized networks right now? Are you just living with the app-switching fatigue? 👇

Been testing a new update for Giftlist where you can add multiple people to a list.

Makes things like Christmas way easier to plan without losing track of gifts or overspending.

If you want to try it early, drop a comment and I'll send you the TestFlight link 👀

OpenAI published a set of Codex AI examples specifically for iOS and macOS: creating app intents for Siri and Spotlight, migrating to Liquid Glass design, scaffolding native apps, and debugging in the simulator. A solid starting point for AI-assisted development experiments.

TigerDine is currently broken because Imagine RIT is happening on Saturday, and Crossroads is openly specially for the event (it’s usually closed on Saturdays) and has a visiting chef around during those opening hours.

As it turns out, that visiting chef is using a brand new time string format that I haven’t encountered before, and that breaks TigerDine’s detection of it as a morning time, tries to parse “11am” as an integer directly, force unwraps the result…
