New handle, same guy: moto_szama → szamski.

For years "szamski" was taken by an account that hadn't posted in over a decade. X's Handle Marketplace (Premium+) let me request it, and it worked.

Recommend it to anyone stuck with a workaround username.

Apple rejected my app's name.

Then the subtitle "Works with Google Calendar". Same guideline: 4.1(c). Nine days and one formal appeal later, it got approved.

What happened, and what I'd do differently: x.com/i/article/21...

Lesson I learned building a Mac app on Google APIs: key users on the sub claim from the ID token, never the email. Emails change. sub doesn't.

Still love the course. Just want my 157k XP back.

CleanShot 5.0.1 (Setapp, 02e6637) won’t launch at login on macOS 27.2 beta 3, even with the in-app toggle on and the app added manually to Login Items. Restart and reinstall didn’t help. CleanShot anyone else?

Coming to the next Cork version: downgrading of Cork

Gets the previous versions, downloads & processes the executable for the selected version. Then you drag it wherever

As always, done with no AI

I hate when I want to showcase a new Cork feature and keep hitting API rate limits 🫠

Well, credit it where it's due, my Mac update did finally get approved just now without any entitlement issues.

Why on Earth it took them six days *in* review (i.e., not waiting) when the iOS build was approved in two hours, I guess we'll never know.

#iosdev #macdev #indiedev

I have released #McKinley 1.3. (A Mac app for making and editing SF Symbols.)

1.3 is a huge update behind the scenes, focussing on performance and correctness. There’s one new feature, Minimum Internal Radius for strokes.

Can't wait to be rejected for not explaining our Bluetooth entitlement use because the reviewer didn't scroll down far enough. Again.

Coming in Cork `2.0.4`:

Pagination of the onboarding workflow, along with a new animation

What do you think?

New in #McKinley 1.2.1: star and wave tools! Also a "Simplify Path" operation, plus improvements to exported symbols.

McKinley is my tool for creating custom SF Symbols, of use to #iOSDev, #MacDev, #AppleDeveloper folks. Check it out!

One reason I prefer native tools for work I repeat every day: the shortcuts and small interactions stop feeling like features and start feeling like part of the desk. Hora is my version of that for Google Calendar on Mac. horacal.app #MacDev #IndieApps

hora 1.1.0 is out.

Google Tasks live in the app now. A sidebar widget, and your tasks drawn on the Day, Week and Month grids next to your events.

Drag one onto the grid to give it a time. Tick it off anywhere, it's done everywhere.

#indie_dev #MacDev #SwiftUI #buildinginpublic

Also in 1.1.0: Find a time.

Open the availability popover and hora reads every attendee's free/busy at once, lays their days out side by side, and offers the slots where the whole room is free.

One click puts the event there.
