I had this idea in bed for glass pins that blob to condense down and get out of the way. So fun to go from idea in bed to concept like this so quickly

If you make iOS apps and aren't using @helm-app.bsky.social at this point what are you doing?? Uploading new screenshots? ASC: Ugly, slow, confusing, randomizes the order for fun Helm: Drop every screenshot all at once and it sorts and places them in the right sections like a coin sorterScree

I was born too late and never got to design a physical box for my software, so I did a fake one for the “What's new" window in Hand Mirror. This update is almost ready, if you like to make videos or write about this stuff get in touch!

As a kid, whenever we went to the Apple Store I always ran to the back to play the demo games on the iMacs. Now many years later, in an absolutely crazy, full-circle, bucket-list moment, my own game is one of those demo games on thousands of iPads in hundreds of Apple Stores around the world.

So stoked and proud to share the design keynote I gave at Let's Vision in Shanghai: a discussion about my own design thinking, new interface approaches, and various interaction design challenges! Warning: this talk involves a puzzle ;) youtu.be/xvUHZcquSts?... (photo: @sxp.studio)

Remembering when an art collective installed a giant knitted pink bunny on a mountain in Italy so that people could wander over its surface as it slowly decayed 🎨: Gelitin, "Hase / Rabbit / Coniglio", Artesina, Piemont, Italy (2005)

SwiftUI is incredible. I don't know what I would do without the spontaneous, pedantic, utterly indecipherable error messages, useless autocompletion, and daily opportunities to scream ☺️

Absolutely love this app calling out the Screen Time API which just crashed and has seemingly been neglected and abandoned by Apple for years now.
