After 10 days of App Store rejections I'm so excited to say, Short Circuit is finally in the App Store! 28 days ago I started built a prototype of Siri powered by ChatGPT, and was immediately drawn to the idea of a premium-feeling iOS, iPad, and Mac app for ChatGPT. This amazing technology deserves a good user experience, and we gave it one.

Partnering with @Soroush to make that happen has been a dream, and I'm so excited to share Short Circuit with you.

@mergesort @Soroush Congrats. It’s a nice looking app. Where’s the 1 time purchase option mentioned to restore from? This was only offered in the beta or? (Sorry, jumped right to the app after first toot about it. Now see my answer in one of your newer toots :P )

@kvenden @Soroush Unfortunately we're still waiting for Apple to approve our lifetime purchase option, but we're hoping it'll be in the app in the next day or two. In the mean time you can purchase a lifetime unlock to use your own OpenAI token on Stripe, which would let you have it today, and would mean Apple fees for us. https://redpanda.club/short-circuit-lifetime-unlock

@mergesort @Soroush Hi, when you say mac app, is this only available on M1/M2 macs? It says not compatible with my 2020 Intel MacBook Air. Just wanted to confirm before I purchase the life license.. Thanks.

@kvenden @Soroush Hey Kris, great question. Yes, it's currently available on M1/M2 MacBooks but we've already started on a native Mac app (which will require macOS 13). I expect it to take a couple of weeks, the app already builds but I'd like to make sure it's a great experience. So we do have plans in case you want to purchase a lifetime license, or I can let you know when it’s out if you'd prefer that.
