Families can also use Secrets.

After losing the EURO 2024 to Topps, Panini is also set to lose the rights for the World Cup sticker albums after 2030 to the same american company.

As a kid I think pretty much all the albums I collected were from Panini. This looks like the end of an era.

FIFA anuncia fim da parceria com a Panini para as cadernetas dos Mundiais

Mundial 2030, competição que passará por Portugal, será a última com a caderneta de cromos da Panini. Parceria teve início em 1970, há mais de meio século.

Hey @revenuecat, is it possible to not send notifications for transactions related to family sharing?

I remember when it was Nike that did this type of commercial!

Kudos to Adidas for hitting back. Even if 20 years later.

"AppKit was ahead of its time and UIKit was a more polished version of AppKit. A serious cross-platform framework that unified the two should have happened long before SwiftUI."

I still believe the ideal strategy would have been:

1. Get UIKit to full parity with AppKit.
2. Deprecate AppKit.
3. Architect SwiftUI as a declarative layer on top of UIKit, not as an alternative. Refactor UIKit as needed to make the integration super robust. Provide no-compromise bidirectional integration points.

Just wrote about building a Mac-assed app in pure SwiftUI, based on my experience porting Shopie to macOS.

The TL;DR: we’re not there yet.

If you’re interested in why, I collected the issues I ran into with selection states, context menus, drag & drop, keyboard shortcuts, toolbars, and all the tiny details that make Mac apps feel Mac.

Shopie is now available on macOS 🎉

After launching on iOS late last year, I got a lot of requests for a Mac version — so here it is.

Save products from anywhere and get notified when prices drop or items come back in stock. Runs more reliably on macOS too 👀

Requested an expedited review yesterday. Got rejected because of a detail on the paywall (the iOS version was approved nonetheless). Updated paywall remotely and replied to app review.

Another 24h "Waiting for Review" even though it's clearly stated expedited reviews are still "in effect" after a rejection.

Just rejected and re-submitted.

I have no words for this level of service…

This app is now waiting for review on the Mac App Store since Tuesday.

It’s 2011 all over again.
