iOS 26.5 makes Reminders app better by improving one of my top features - 9to5Mac

iOS 26.5 is expected to launch next week, and a newly discovered improvement makes one of my most-used Reminders features even better.

Accessibility is hard. Setting mom’s new phone up and at the larger text sizes you can’t read what you’re supposed to say to Siri so you can’t progress 🥲

A SwiftUI story in two images…

#SwiftUI

Recap: I vibecoded (code unseen, no plan) a 3D editor/renderer that has a scene graph, editing controls, primitives and gizmos, materials, procedural terrain and water, and hardware-accelerated Metal raytracing with soft shadows, clouds and bounce lighting, that runs on Mac and iPad.

Tool: Codex 5.3 Medium
Time: About a day's worth of work has gone into it

I stopped doing iOS some years ago because Xcode + Apple's Buggy APIs made me a unhappy person.

I just released StepMaps, an app to see *all* your outdoor walks, runs & more on a map - grouped by city.

I wanted this app for years, but didn't are touch iOS again. I let Claude do it. I took care of the testing and feature prompting. I'm super happy with the outcome.

GitHub Actions charging per build minute for *self-hosted-runners*? Shit's about to hit the fan lol
