Hi everyone,

Happy Holidays and Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate.

I'm a new app developer and started learning iOS a month ago. I've been trying to make an app every 2-3 days on something I'm passionate or interested in. Recently, I wanted to make was a fun kids friendly app for my cousins.

Recently, I've been spending a lot of time improving this app to be more engaging for kids.

I'm always looking for ways to improve the experience so feel free to give me any sorts of criticism / feedback. I am currently working on adding more audios for animal as well as adding an audio description for each animal. Also, tinkering around with the Rive framework to make more engaging visuals for kids.

Let me know what you think!

Please take a look and let me know what you think! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/discover-animal-sounds/id6471942184

Thank you!

Here are some updates I'm working on that should be released in a few weeks:

  • Interactive Animal Animations - "play with [x] animal which will make [x, y, z] sound depending on movement"
  • More Animals + variety of sounds

(Accidentally posted this on Saturday instead of Sunday so deleted that one and reposting again)

Hi, I just want to say it’s a cool app, props to you from a fellow aspiring indie iOS dev.

Do you have any good recommendations for learning resources for after I learned the basics? Basically what should I look into after finishing 100 days of Swift (a course that had me build a bunch of apps in project form)?

Here are some resources I took a look at that helped me get jumpstarted that are helpful: https://www.youtube.com/c/iOSAcademy, https://www.hackingwithswift.com/read/36/overview, https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-iOS

Also, unrelated to iOS, but I love Designing Intensive Data Systems by Martin Klepman. Is very helpful for designing large scale software including iOS.
