Now it finally works: Place multiple posters on your walls. They STAY. 📌 And they auto-refresh trending content every 15min. They survive everything! We're slowly getting closer to the AR future we need: Content that enriches your space without demanding attention. ✨ [6/7]

Apple listened. ✅ They had actually built it! VisionOS 26 introduced not just widgets, but also a new perfectly poster-sized widget format – what a coincidence! Of course, I completely rebuilt Posters from scratch to embrace them. 🔨 [5/7]

🎙️ Ellis from MKBHD interviewed me about these limitations for the AVP 1-year anniversary. It turned out I wasn't alone — many developers hit the same walls and user complained. Then, finally visionOS 26 arrived with persistent spatial widgets. 🎉 [4/7]

I even had to add a ⚠️ warning dialog in v1 with a link to Apple support! I published an article: 📝 "Why I Stopped Building for visionOS and What Could Bring Me Back" Written for Apple engineers. I filed radars, too! Then the MKBHD team reached out. 📞 [3/7]

From writing "Why I Stopped Building for visionOS" to coming back and shipping a complete rewrite of my app for #visionOS 26 – because Apple added the exact API I needed! The full story: 🧵👇 [1/7] #VisionPro #visionOS #BuildInPublic #DeveloperAdvocacy #Apple

My Dual Knit Band for the #AppleVisionPro just arrived. 📦 The packaging of this thing is incredibly elaborate. 👍 And boy does it improve the weight distribution! I can finally wear the #VisionPro for an hour without my face hurting. I really hope they work on a lighter 2nd gen with more FOV! 🤞

Finally updated @TranslateKit.app to Liquid Glass. Thankfully didn't have to adjust much, it all worked thanks to #SwiftUI. I only changed the "Reload" button at the top: Because the status toolbar now has a glassy border, I had to set the button style to "plain" – that's all. ❤️🚀 Direct comparison:

You can prep your iPhone preorder NOW in the Apple Store app on iPhone. Saves a lot of hassle on Friday – you can just "submit" the order then and done. Payment & all pre-configured. ✅ Don’t know if this is new, but first time I’m seeing it – and I love it! 🍏👏 #AppleEvent

Been using AI a lot for work lately, both for coding and also management. ☑️ I‘m using a hierarchical set of guidelines that AI needs to follow based on what I ask it. Is this a common approach? Are there best practices I can learn from? How do you use AI effectively? 🤔💭 #iOSDev #AI #BuildInPublic

Apple implemented a feature I had requested in #Xcode26. Sending feedback does actually have an effect on the decision the teams make! Don't forget to share your feedback in the coming weeks. Bugs might get fixed right away, and feature requests shipped the next year! #WWDC25 #iOSDev #Apple #Radar

Yeah, finally! It was a feature I had requested last year, they even referenced my feedback number in the release notes:

Wow, all #WWDC25 session videos are up already! 💯🤩 And so many new APIs to discover, including completely new frameworks like Foundation Models, AlarmKit, PermissionKit, PaperKit, EnergyKit, Wi-Fi Aware, Visual intelligence, and more. Time to dive in! 🖥️👀 #iOSDev #WWDC

If it's a Swift package that's crashing, you'll find the ".xcworkspace" file inside the hidden path ".swiftpm/xcode". Just delete "xcuserdata" in there. ✅

Cihat Gündüz @jeehut.bsky.social · 09/06/2025

If your project crashes in #Xcode26 upon opening, there's an easy fix: Right-click your ".xcodeproj", choose "Show Package Contents". Do the same for "project.xcworkspace". Delete the "xcuserdata" folder, it contains an incompatible ".xcuserstate" file. Done! ✅ Here's a video: 👇 #WWDC25 #iOSDev

Been only 2 weeks I released #ErrorKit & it already has ~250 🌟 on GitHub, being my 3rd most popular open-source framework already! 😱🎉 Just released v1.1.0 of the lib with some nice improvements. Thanks to James Sherlock & @jubishop.bsky.social for their contributions! 👏 github.com/FlineDev/Err...

Cihat Gündüz @jeehut.bsky.social · 27/04/2025

In #Swift, it's easy to get error messages wrong. It's due to a design flaw in the "Error" protocol introduced for #ObjC compatibility. I've seen people write below code all the time. I fixed it in #ErrorKit: Conform your errors to "Throwable" instead! 💯 Learn more: 👇 www.fline.dev/swift-error-...

Excited that @telemetrydeck.com loved their app card—my first design outside my own apps! Could this grow into a collectible card game for #iOSDev indies? An app where devs showcase cards and players collect across the community. Who's interested? #Swift #IndieDev

Attendees loved my app trading cards at #trySwift Tokyo! Gave away hundreds of them along with stickers and sleeves. Spent an hour each morning prepping them all — worth every minute seeing everyone's reactions! 🃏✨ #iOSDev #Swift

Cihat Gündüz @jeehut.bsky.social · 12/04/2025

The last day of #trySwift was packed: From hacking the system for fun (@noppe.bsky.social) or security (@inside.bsky.social), to pushing Swift's boundaries with Syntax-parsing (@nicklockwood.com), or Java (@kto.so)! Connected with such brilliant minds & already missing the energy! 😊❤️ #Swift #iOSDev

Every great conference needs an amazing after-party, and #trySwift delivered! Great food, drinks, and connections with fellow Swift enthusiasts made for an unforgettable night. The venue was perfect! Who else had as much fun as I did? 🎉 #iOSDev

Day 2 of #trySwift with even more devs from all over the world! @v-pradeilles.bsky.social, @creativewith.in, and many more. 🙌 The talks were super cool, too. From 30 year old APIs we‘re still using today, to the latest Swift features discussed by @twostraws.bsky.social & @mikaelacaron.com live! 🎙️

1st day of #trySwift is over & what an opening day! From cherry blossoms and soba noodles, to newly rediscovered APIs by @v-pradeilles.bsky.social and WTF Swift moments with @pinkerstraws.bsky.social 🙌 I’m preparing an Immersive/YouTube video all about it. Follow to not miss! 🧵👇

Now, you can discover things like which parts of your onboarding users skip. I've already used it to determine if a single server in Germany is enough for @translatekit.app or if I need worldwide redundancy for good performance. 📊⏱️ The possibilities are endless! (2/2)
