Every tech conference, every podcast, every LinkedIn post: “Taste and personality will save us from AI.”

And I keep wondering if that’s insight or a life raft.

#BuildInPublic usually means sharing wins. New users. Revenue milestones. App Store features.

But last few weeks we shipped a bug that broke sleep tracking for a chunk of @FitWoody_Camp users. It was subtle, selective, and took 3 patches to fully fix.

The fix is live. And we wrote an honest account of everything that went wrong.

FitWoody is Apple’s App of the Day. 🤯

Two people. A tiny studio in the Basque Country called Chubby Apps. No investors, no growth hacks. Just @patricia_bedoya and me building the fitness app we wanted to use ourselves.

Apple featured it in 40+ countries today. Still sinking in.

Training load is one of those things every serious fitness app offers but almost nobody actually understands.

Too many acronyms. Too many charts. Too many numbers that all sound the same.

This Thursday, FitWoody 2.3 tackles exactly that. Your fitness level, your freshness, your load balance. Clear words, clear colors, one glance.

Plus a redesigned Readiness Score that connects the dots between your sleep, your training, and how your body is actually doing.

"Just build things," they say.

Also them: "Wait, are you still using THAT? You need to switch to this other tool. And configure it with this 47-step setup. And connect it to three other services. And read this thread on why everything you're doing is wrong."

I thought we were just building things.

Blue means it’s time to push 💪🏻

Training Load is coming very soon to @FitWoody_Camp, with a special twist to make it more understandable and approachable.

A sneak peek at @FitWoody_Camp 2.3.

We’ve been working on a new way to log perceived exertion after your workouts. Sounds boring? We thought so too. That’s why we spent way too long on animations and little details to make it actually fun.

Because if logging how you feel is tedious, you’ll just stop doing it.

Such a pleasure to Meet with Apple at Madrid 🍎

There’s something special about being in a room full of people who geek out about the same things you do. Great conversations, fresh ideas, and a few notes on how to make FitWoody even better.

Went to see “Rental Family” last night with @patricia_bedoya.

It reminded me what cinema is supposed to be: stories that make you feel something. No universe-building. No sequel setup. Just humans being human.

One of the best films I’ve seen in a long time.
