You can quickly get started with many pre defined stats. This includes stats you are already familiar with from App Store Connect, but also many new ones you might not have known were possible. I will regularly add new ones, so expect the collection to grow.

Today, I am launching @connectwizard giving you first time access to all the ASC data Apple has been hiding for years. Learn what users do on your app product page, and how they interact with your app system wide on a detailed framework level.

I've been thinking about SwiftUI and the frustrations around it a lot lately. This is my hot take: https://macguru.dev/swiftui-should-become-open-source/
SwiftUI should become Open-Source

We have a running joke on the team. Whenever we’re fed up fighting a framework and can’t find workarounds, someone proposes sending one of us as an undercover intern to that framework’s team at Apple, to fix the bugs from within. Over the years this has targeted

CommunityKit Indie Fair Participation

Welcome to the CommunityKit Indie Fair! We're excited to be back and with a space to host many indie developers like you for showing off your work, fielding questions, and networking with your fellow developers. There's a few things we'll need to know to get you reserved for a spot. The Indie Fair is going to be held in a room with several tables where you will have a dedicated, assigned space to show your app. Attendees will walk around the room, stopping by to discuss with different developers. We only require that you bring a computer to show your promotional material as well as a working version of your app that you'd feel comfortable demoing to folks. If you have a Vision Pro app, this requirement is relaxed, but please provide enough material via graphics and videos to suggest the experience. Though not required, it is highly recommended that you bring any swag related to your app with you, such as stickers, promo codes, Test Flight invites, etc. You can be as creative as you'd like with swag as long as it adheres to the CommunityKit Code of Conduct.

"When I installed the app on my own phone, 20 seconds afterwards, I accidentally ended up opening Twitter and I ran into my own app." 😅

@frederik built @onesec in a weekend to tackle his own scrolling habit. The validation was immediate.

Looks like Apple broke #CloudKit sync in OS 26.4. Remote notifications don’t seem to arrive, so no updates unless the app is relaunched. https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/820550

I’m excited to share a little project of mine: GoLight Energy - an iOS app for people in Europe who want to see how green their local electricity is! You can get it on the App Store today: https://apps.apple.com/app/golight-energy/id6755192452

It works like a traffic light:

🟢 Use energy when it’s green.

🔴 Hold off when it’s red.

A small shift in timing, such as when you cook or charge your car, can help increase renewable usage and reduce reliance on coal and gas.

Building this was a great chance to dive deeper into SwiftUI from the other side, exploring advanced scrolling APIs and designing with Liquid Glass!

Huge thanks to the team at Fraunhofer ISE behind Energy-Charts (@energy_charts_d). Their API powers the app, and their website (https://energy-charts.info) is fantastic for those interested in grid data and renewables!

Spotlight has recently become terrible for launching apps after being so good for years. Now when I type something like Cal or Calendar or even Calendar.app I have to manually select the actual app in the list, if it even appears. Should be first thing.

Just me? Is my Mac haunted? Probably haunted.
