Try covering the logo with your thumb and watch the red fade away. Everything is a hallucination and a half.
his Coca-Cola can appears reddish, though it consists of black and white random dots.

Turns out there’s been a public API to do this for nearly a year. That means the team behind WhatsApp, an app with over A BILLION daily active users simply can’t be bothered to implement it? Someone plz help me understand corporate app dev choices because I do not get this.
Since when do third party apps show up here and when will WhatsApp be added? 🙄

Any app developer who played Wordle thought about how many hours it would take them to clone it natively but actually doing it and then *monetizing* it is flagrant greed—doing it without changing the gameplay, design, or even the name at all is shameless.

I’m convinced no one at Apple has ever used their phone in bed because iOS still doesn’t have a button to “unlock rotation lock for this one full screen video”.

I feel like the UIInterpolatingMotionEffect being used on the Apple Cash card hasn’t been discussed enough… It's not just a masked gradient… the individual elements are embossed with a colored shadow that represents the receding color??? Open to insights and theories! 🌈

Five years after launching Blackbox 1.0 from my bedroom (and then going out to get a burrito with friends) Blackbox 2.0 has finally arrived. 😭✨
Happy 5th Birthday Blackbox!! You've grown up to be a wonderful little app and now you're on iPad too. Look at you go… new haptics, new looks, new hints, new merch and all. What will you do next??

$16 per week. For a coloring app.
That’s $832 for one year. For a fucking coloring app.
“Free trials” are raking in money for Apple and developers that they did not deserve or fairly earn.

Skylight is finally out!! 🌅
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Seb, Rebecca, and Ben to build these card interactions, dynamic backgrounds, and of course the animated “squiggle” :}
Ever wish you knew ahead of time when you’d get absolutely beautiful light? A vibrant sunset, or just a really nice golden hour?
So did we. Here it is:
@RebeccaSlatkin

@sandofksy
and I bring you Skylight Forecast, an app that predicts sunset quality.

As a full time iOS developer something like 78% of my revenue comes from the US. Simply put, without the US I don’t think I could do what I do full time! I get that the US is huge but why is there such a disparity?
