I made an annoying app. The good kind of annoying tho. The funny thing is that you get to control the annoyance level. Take a permanent break from caffeine and drink some water instead. Drippy & Sippy nag you (at your custom interval) to do just that. tinyurl.com/DrippyApp

ALT "Sippy" character in the Drippy macOS app dripping continuously from a macOS menu bar, and a mouse cursor clicking the menu bar icon and clicking a "Log" button to indicate that they've hydrated, which in turns stops the dripping.

A major part of my CLAUDE md file is always all of @AlexOzun’s teachings on Type-Driven Design in Swift. It remains, to this day, the most powerful Swift content I’ve ever read. Your agents will output MUCH better code with it. swiftology.io/collections/ty…

🏳️Time to face obvious facts. iOS Dev courses are no longer viable income for me. I've been disrupted. I'm looking to join a team working on a cool iOS project (full-time or part-time contract). Remote. RT's are appreciated! DMs open.

Why are you monkeying around with other survey apps when you could be basking in the warmth of rich native features in PopTap? For example, the latest version gives you MUCH smarter insights to your collected replies, all on device.💡 Fist bump? 🤜🏼🤛🏽

Introducing: Night Blocks 🌌 Because sometimes you need a game you can play in the dark without lighting up the entire bedroom or entire airplane cabin. Download and play today for free: apps.apple.com/us/app/id6765…
An iOS screenshot of the game called Night Blocks. The entire color theme is dark blues with confetti that looks like a little stars and Little Crescent moons with a celebration word saying “brilliant!“ and a subtitle underneath it that says “two rows plus one column plus one block and streak times three” along with “plus 500” below it, all indicating the points you earned. Behind it all is the game board with block pieces placed on it, and a score up at the top that says “10,615” in “sudoku mode”.

If you’re doing any kind of giveaway, you should make your entry form using PopTap. You’ll get all the entries instantly organized and private on your device. AND there’s even a convenient “Pick a random winner” button built right in. It’s real nice!

This use-case was what sparked the idea of PopTap in my brain. My niece posted on Insta asking people to comment with their addresses, and the flood of comments over the next few days was unorganized and of course couldn’t be exported or anything. PopTap solves that like a champ.

For teachers/professors, providing a QR code/link for students to anonymously interact with the lesson is invaluable. This anonymity eliminates the students’ participation anxiety and increases morale. That’s [part of] PopTap’s magic. Try it yourself. poptap.app/press

One link. Everyone answers. You get a clean list. Now with PopTap LIVE for real-time audience polling on the big screen.

We decided to put an animated mesh gradient behind the game board in Bright Blocks, and we think it turned out fun! What do you think? Bright Blocks is free on the App Store: apps.apple.com/us/app/id6764…
