The one idea in ChoreDivider: everyone rates every chore for themselves, 1 to 10.

Your number stays sealed until everyone has rated. No anchoring on your partner's number, no negotiating it down.

Ten numbers, five phrases. A rating is a feeling, not a measurement.

#Shipaton

Black card: Your number stays sealed. A phone shows the rating screen for Clean the bathroom, a dial of ten rising bars with nine lit in teal, the number 9 and the words I dread this one.

Day 49 of #shipaton - while the new updates for track expansion are in review, I’m having a short break in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and maybe I’ll do the Devpost entry before I forget. Time to figure out what I’ll do for the last push!

Adding shadows to the monsters.
Placing each one by hand.
What an unglamorous job this is...

In my quest for ever more platform coverage I have experimented tonite with two more. One is sensible and perhaps even great. The other is a bit silly and therefore definitely great. #shipaton #buildinpublic

Dev log #21

I noticed almost everyone was skipping the tutorial in ArtLevelUp.

I'm spending today rebuilding it into a guided tutorial that actually takes you through the app and visually highlights the elements. I think increasing clarity is a good target.

Flyby continues to see new users each day! Apple Search Ads are certainly helping with discovery, but it's awesome to see people exploring the app! #shipaton #buildinpublic

"MELD CHAIN"
First game, so I keep building little tools instead of guessing.
Most used: "Geometric VFX Lab" (posted earlier).
Second: "Loop Point Lab" — find where a BGM track loops back, by ear.
You hear the seam over and over until it stops sounding like one.

Day 46/61 of #Shipaton #BuildInPublic by RevenueCat

Today I mainly prepared for playbook #4:

Marc Lou's Hacker News launch playbook.

I also published 3 videos.

So far, for the TikTok playbook, I've made 3-4 videos specifically for PasteZero.

"MELD CHAIN"
50+ dungeons done, and still plenty of room to grow.
Lately I've been adding character animations and hit effects.

Day 47 of #Shipaton2026
A little over a month since I shipped on Aug 14. Since then: new features, submitted to Devpost early, opened TikTok/YouTube accounts, wrote about it.
Shipping isn't the finish line — getting people to know and use it takes work in every direction.

Had my first Android review. Yesssss, thanks to that person. #shipaton #buildinpublic

Same screen, five weeks apart.

August: warm greys, a greeting, a list with Done buttons.
September: two rings, one per person. Equal length means the last 14 days came out even.

The list got shorter because the app now deals the day. Rings say more than a greeting.

#Shipaton

Two phones side by side. Left, August: a cream Today screen with the greeting Hey Alex and a plain list of chores with Done buttons. Right, September: a black Today screen with cream serif headline, two concentric rings in teal and orange showing 380 and 390 minutes over the last 14 days, and three chores.

Day 48 of #shipaton and why not a new platform? I will have an “official” launch later but if you are lucky enough to own a television, you can play Nitelore on it now!

All your telephone progress and purchases carry over from iOS.

I read the 2025 and 2026 HAMM rules. The target-market question is word for word the same.

Target market means who your users are and where they are. The where half was answered by the store, from your base price.

How an iOS developer used simctl, WeatherKit, and location changes to capture realistic App Store screenshots without mocking the sky. #shipaton

Day 47 of #Shipaton2026
Approved for Apple's Small Business Program — commission dropped 30% to 15%.
Two more photo skins went live today. Offer codes for all 7 are done.
Submitted a 9th skin, DUOTONE — a new two-tone process, different from anything shipped so far.

Five weeks ago I looked at my own app and thought: this is AI slop.

Since 11 August: 318 commits, 65 TestFlight builds, 977 tests, 1,003 strings in two languages, three design systems, zero servers.

Evenings and two weekends a month, next to a job. Submission week.

Day 47 of #shipaton - Android paywall now actually works (oops). This might explain why no one bothered to upgrade so far.

This evening I’ll be at @RamenClubHQ for Shipaton IRL which should have some good stuff on show.

#buildinpublic

@pricepush.bsky.socialSep 16, 2026, 11:34 AM

For a HAMM submission:

Screenshot the real paywall.
State plans and prices.
Prices in 3 or 4 markets and the rule behind them.
Conversion rate with the denominator.

Judges read the description. Give them numbers.

HAMM criteria ask if your pricing fits your target market: who your users are and where they are.

The store already answered the where half. PricePush replaces it with a purchasing-power price per country.
