Ari Weinstein

I left Apple this month after 6 years (9 including Workflow!)

When we made the Workflow app at a hackathon, I never dreamed that it would be preinstalled on every iPhone, and power systems like Shortcuts and App Intents. I’m so grateful for this journey and for our team.

I’ve loved Apple and its products since I was a kid, and getting to work there, along with so many talented people, has been a real honor, and a lot of fun.

So it’s really tough to leave, but I’m excited to take some time off, and build something new!

@AriX I’m really curious as to what you’ll be doing next. In my experience, people who create great things are rarely satisfied with just doing it once. 🙂
