#ASO is a strange world. I got ranked very popular keyword, and it only gave ~3 extra downloads per day #iOSDev

Green line Apple Ads installs. Blue line organic installs

Organic installs of non target countries

I started working on Apple Ads, and here's some interesting stuff I found. #iOSDev #AppleAds
Organic install boosted because of Apple Search ads.
Organic installs increased in a non-target country.

Sketch MCP is amazing for localizing screenshots #iOSDev

From all these agentic tools, I hate most that as an indie dev now I'm more of a marketing guy than a programmer

Sad truth
If you are not running an A/B screenshot test.
If you are not running a paywall or an onboarding A/B test.
You should not work on new features. #iOSDev

I feel you. I'm working on a big release, and I'm in what stage if a task is longer than 5 min, it's going to the backlog.

In case of development simplicity I like hide double tap or long click on text to enable some features. Sometimes I will put them under # if DEBUG but in most cases it will be nice easter egg.

This is just a friendly suggestion 😊 Love the app ❤️

Nice demo. But I have a rule. If it's not a core mechanic UI element, don't put it on screen. So I doubt many people are switching between units. So this button can go under more menu. Or make a hidden feature with a long tap, and document it in the FAQ or somewhere else for power users to find.

Lithuania is using filibuster to stop takeover of national broadcaster, but somehow a cat named Nuodėgulis has got control. 🤣

I got my #trmnl dashboard. It's a simple but amazing device. Already created the #Linear plugin the next will be @revenuecat.com plugin.

What about re-regulation? Only few days ago I found out about eu-inc initiative and I was amazed about the possibilities it may open.

I self-hosted n8n. Now I have a problem finding what I want to automate in my life

This year, I will be skipping Indie App Sales, but I still recommend that all #iOSDev join and take advantage of the amazing promotion opportunity.

I can go with Firebase backend for an easy life, but no, I will go with Swift Vapor 😂 #iOSDev

6 weeks with newborn and all content are consumed.

Newborn is my new productivity hack. I never thought that with limited time, I would be more productive than ever.

I use the Things app to track my personal tasks. However, I often feel the need for a better app to simplify my personal life. I need:

Things + house cleaning tracker + maintenance tracker + basic habit tracker.

For some time, I have had an idea to try to build this app myself.

Also, they rework the tab system every time I feel like I've gotten used to it 🙃

Portable photo printer with Zink paper are awesome sticker maker

My iPhone soft locked because storage was full. Restarted device and got back about 40% of storage. I will blame this on dev life and Apple.

Every year more and more people are migrating to VS Code, Neovim and Zed (newest direction I see)

As a newly father I can finally post for the US timezones 😂

I forgot about this problem. As a European developer, I had no choice not to deal with legal stuff.

Why are no worldwide release? I wanted to check if it can replace my google sheet for sub tracking

I want to use Linux but I’m an iOS developer

My guess. This place needed dimension validation, but the developer simply reused the existing screenshot validation code, which was deemed good enough.
In his place, I will do the same because I'm also lazy 😂

It's iOS 26 Beta 5, and my search bar button still looks like this.

It's Beta 4 and I still don't have a working search field... I see only an empty button in the top toolbar.

I think the iOS beta version will be n times stable if Apple developers used the same API. Explain why my tabViewBottomAccessoryPlacement is not working, but Apple Podcast has a working version.
