Inspired by an episode of #atpfm last year, would love feedback on my latest app, SleepTag. It imports your sleep data and lets you tag it with activities/information to help you better understand what affects your sleep. 100% #swiftui and a lot of Swift Charts!

Are you an Apple developer who uses SF Symbols? 👨💻👩💻🧑💻 Support for the new SF Symbol 6 animations are coming soon to San Fransymbols, along with some other feature enhancements (including previewing symbols in any font style at any Dynamic Type size as seen below) #apple #iosdev #sfsymbols #swiftui #BuildInPublic
Tdoay’s #Apple announcement means that more products than ever can be specced with a non-reflective, nano-texture display. But what does this cost? What is the “best value” product to upgrade? And what could a nano-texture iPhone be like? Read more here… https://moof.blog/2024/10/30/reflecting-value-not-light-the-cost-of-nano-texture-across-apples-devices/
San Fransymbols v7.0 is out today! It includes support for all the new symbols in SF Symbols 6, the new symbol animations, and app icon tinting. More is to come later this year - the roadmap currently includes:
- Redesigned home page
- Shortcuts support
- Filtering
- UI changes
If you’d like to support the continued development of the app, there is a tip jar - we’re extremely grateful to anyone who can afford to do so.
@siracusa@mastodon.social re: your comments on nano-texture pricing on ATP 611 and how it differs between products. I was having similar thoughts (graph attached) and wanted to see what the price to upgrade is across product lines, normalised by display size. TL;DR is that “Pro” products are more expensive, the new iMac is the best value, and a hypothetical nano-texture iPhone could be a $25 upgrade… https://moof.blog/2024/10/30/reflecting-value-not-light-the-cost-of-nano-texture-across-apples-devices/
@czottmann@norden.social thanks Carlo! Your support is really appreciated.
@gruber@mastodon.social pedantic, but I believe Apple did announce during the Mountain Lion days that OS X was officially moving to an annual release schedule. Quoting from a contemporary DF post:
‘Professional’ iPhone Colours: The Rainbow of Dullness
It's not a very hot take to say that Apple's "professional" colours have always been on the duller side. Each year, the Pro version of the iPhone comes in various neutral metallic shades, along with one or two unique colours for that year's model. These limited edition colours haven't strayed very far from the tried-and-tested formula of desaturated and dull. The trend started in 2019 with the release of the…

@siracusa@mastodon.social John, have you heard anything about the Sonos Roam 2 fixing the AirPlay stuttering bug? It’s annoying enough that I’d buy a new one in a heartbeat if it fixed it, but can’t find any reports online confirming either way!
FineWoven: It’s… Fine
Earlier this week, there have been reports that Apple has stopped the production of its FineWoven accessories. These were introduced with the iPhone 15 series last year - the move away from leather was a key part of the Apple 2030 pledge to bring the company's net emissions to zero. If you believe the online discourse, there won't be many mourners turning up to FineWoven's funeral - it seems to be universally disliked as a fragile and perishable…

“It’s like a giant iPhone” - is that really such a bad thing? As we approach new iPad hardware early this year (perhaps as soon as next month!), here is my wishlist for what the iPad could learn from its smaller sibling. Published @ Moof! 🐶🐄
