Made a Free Kids App called "Discover Animal Sounds" [Self-Promotion Sunday] by juxtaposition0617 in c/[email protected]

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.

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

Why is apple being held to a higher standard than other tech companies? by juxtaposition0617 in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

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.

The new iOS 17 notification sound is quieter, and there’s no way to change it back by juxtaposition0617 in c/[email protected]

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

Yeah we really need these antitrust reforms - just look up how many / what subsidiaries Google, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. own. For example, Microsoft owns GitHub (biggest market share for CI / CD platform) and basically owns OpenAI (biggest market share for GPTs / AI).

Woah - how does this compare to Samsung / Pixel flagship cameras?

The Caps Lock button on MacBooks knows if you really want to press it. by juxtaposition0617 in c/[email protected]

That's crazy... Do they have like a simple mechanism to detect this like if < .001ms?

TIL that on iOS 17, if you press long on the + button on iMessage, it’ll automatically open the Gallery. by juxtaposition0617 in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Found this from my GF. When you send a message on a iMessage and hold down the "send arrow" button for a few seconds, you can send it in a fun format like "gentle", "slam", etc. It's pretty funny to do

Apple MacBook Pro 16 2023 M3 Pro review - Efficiency before performance by juxtaposition0617 in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Do people think it's worth upgrading from M1 MBP Stock 14inch to M3? Macbooks in general are pretty expensive so I try to wait till my laptop is way too slow / about to die to upgrade but M3 looks pretty great from a performance standpoint.

Breaking Down Apple's 2024 Adoption of Rich Communication Services by juxtaposition0617 in c/[email protected]

Finally Apple does the right thing... Seems like they only listen when regulators breathe down their shoulder. Man it was always frustrating to text my friends with android - I love all the iMessage features and wished there was a shared protocol much earlier.
