I think I need to work on my App Store screenshots. Thanks to the ads, I guess, the number of impressions grew significantly lately, but I see no difference in page views and almost no downloads.

Rejected by Apple iOS app review:

First we were rejected for having a restore purchases button when we only have consumable purchases and restore purchases does not apply to consumable purchases.

We removed the button and resubmitted.

Now we got rejected for not having a "restore purchases" button.

I've created my first small PHP script to proxy an API to not leak my API key. What's the best way to deploy it so my iOS app can consumer it?

Just noticed that Checker crossed a pretty huge milestone #iosdev

The worst day of this week (from a work perspective at least) behind me! The update is live, and I encourage everyone to give it a try. I decided to take everything in Spark slowly from now on for some time.
#BuildInPublic #IndieHacker #iOSDev #IndieDev

So 16,000 people happened to see my app without searching for it? Downloads were only 3x a regular day so not a huge bump. Any idea what's happening here?

Also weird as it was 1 day before my new update launched...

Wow, just tried Helm for uploading screenshots and it's a game changer.

- blazing fast uploads
- you can zoom around the UI and trust it to take care of the in-process uploads correctly
- all screenshots are in the correct order (using the website never got this right)
- you can drag screenshots for all devices onto the UI and it puts them in the right devices

took me like 5 or 6 minutes to upload for 10 locales. Used to take me about 60 minutes to upload and verify correct sequences. #iosdev

When we wrap content in a ScrollView to support larger text on iOS, it adds bounce behavior even when the content fits with default settings. To avoid it, and still allow scrolling when needed, we can apply .scrollBounceBehavior(.basedOnSize), introduced in SwiftUI in iOS 16.4.

I wrote a short post with visual examples and a brief explanation of how scrollBounceBehavior(.basedOnSize) works in practice: https://nilcoalescing.com/blog/EnableScrollingBasedOnContentSizeInSwiftUI/
