Devs: I have upcoming articles your apps could feature in. One on the best big app updates for iOS 17. And another specifically on interactive widgets. If you’re doing either, please get in touch, ideally via email.

(Please note: I do read EVERY email from devs, but won’t always have time to reply.)

@craiggrannell Hey Craig, perfect timing! I actually just wrapped up interactive widget support for @zenitizer today 🥳

I’m planning to do press outreach tomorrow, but since this popped up in my timeline just now, I figured, I’d give you a heads up already 😉

(Expect an email with press kit, TestFlight and more details tomorrow)

Cheers!

Manuel

@craiggrannell Hi Craig, thanks for the opportunity! 🙏

I'll follow up with an email tomorrow-ish, but I have an update for @nomeat_today that includes many interactive widgets.

@craiggrannell Hey Craig, I’m working on an Upate for my #MeterStats app to integrate with the iOS 17’s new Shortcuts.

Developing the shortcuts took me longer than expected, so there’s no interactive widgets. Though, I’m working to ship it with the launch of iOS 17. 😉

Is it still worth to drop you a mail with this update for MeterStats?

Here’s the app, btw: https://apps.apple.com/de/app/meterstats-energie-tracker/id6446205821

@alexkaessner What’s the compatibility of the app, in a broad sense? Does it work only in specific countries, or will it work anywhere, with any provider?

@craiggrannell I’ve designed it to be generally usable everywhere. Users can input their data manually, so it should work worldwide. Well now with the coming Shortcuts support they can start adding their data automated in some way 😉

@craiggrannell ah amazing! I've just dropped you an email

@craiggrannell Hi Craig, I'm currently working on a big iOS 17 update for my app @AmatoApp which includes interactive widgets and a major overhaul in usability and design.

I'll write you an email when I'm finished implementing features, which will probably be on Sunday

@craiggrannell Hey Craig! While not interactive, i've added stand by mode support for my shift work calendar app.
