Kinda surprised - goldman was losing lots of money with the Apple card. Surprised JP Morgan would take the risk per se.

Yeah, not surprised at all. Apple's known to recruit some of the smartest new grads and existing hardware engineers. At Berkeley, they were heavily investing in computer engineering such as our research and classes. One CE class was literally created by Apple.

Is the apple card even worth getting? I feel like I make maybe at most 1-2 Apple purchases a year besides the monthly $10 iCloud family subscription I have.

I’m kinda pleasantly surprised AllTrails won. I love the app so much for hikes and runs so glad it gets its laurels :)

Features I’ve added since the feedback from this post:

• 3 sounds per animal
• 45+ animals
• Audio descriptions

UPDATE 11/29/23: Made the whole app with premium features free for now. Will work on building a better kids app and adding to the educational and entertainment value for kids.

If anyone has any feedback, please let me know on how I can improve. Thanks for taking the time.

Thank you to those who already emailed me. I realized it's best to make this free for now and source as much feedback as possible.

Thanks everyone for their honest thoughts - especially those who gave feedback that was constructive and actionable.

Thanks man - appreciate the kind words. I had a similar line of thinking and glad that others do too.

lol just googled this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Microsoft_Corp. they kepp getting away w this

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.

Added more ways to access premium feature

• 3 day free monthly trial ($.99 monthly fee)
• Lifetime Price access to everything ($4.99 one time cost)

Thank you to those who mentioned about price. I appreciate it.

Yeah Apple prices everything - literally everything 3-5x more than everyone else. For example their developer license costs $99 compared to $25 for Google’s developer license. They also take a fat cut from developer in app sales.

They should be held to a higher standard IMO. 100% agree.

Lol
