The best place right now to follow what I’m working on and what I’m learning is my blog (david-smith.org) where I’m writing a daily diary of my design and development process (just posted my 7th entry). I’m also now on Mastodon, just in case. mastodon.social/@_Davidsmith
Design Notes diary #6 david-smith.org/blog/2022/12/0… Better graph scrolling, adding colored confetti in SwiftUI and an unexpected difference between iOS 16.1 and 16.2.
Design Notes Diary #5 david-smith.org/blog/2022/12/0… My process for capturing issues with my apps in development and designing a better system for scaling my step count graphs.
Design Notes Diary #4 david-smith.org/blog/2022/12/0… Doing some design work on my Live Activities…and pondering the question. To Notch or not To Notch.
Design Notes Diary #1 david-smith.org/blog/2022/11/3… More experiments with the Workout Screen.
Design Notes Diary #1 david-smith.org/blog/2022/11/2… I’m trying a new approach to sharing my development process in a way that takes more ownership of the content, lessens my dependence on Twitter and hopefully increases the depth of the insight. A daily design/development diary.
Joking, not joking. My philosophy for navigating the delicious Thanksgiving/Christmas season comes from this clip of the Whoop podcast. I’m not overeating. I’m “putting my body into a great state for building muscle”. Turning pumpkin pie into 💪🏻. 🤣 overcast.fm/+PsPA5HivE
The only little block of code I’m especially proud of writing was this little hack to prevent the badge on Pedometer++ from getting truncated. I worked out that if there were at least two “1”s digits in the number it was narrow enough to fully display. david-smith.org/blog/2017/07/0…
It looks like the Apple Watch Ultra is selling very well. Essentially keeping pace with the 45mm Series 8, and actually outselling the 41mm amongst Pedometer++ users. [For context the most used model right now is 44mm Series 6 at 11%, followed by 38mm Series 3 at 10%]
Reading about the FTX collapse, and I just can’t get this line from Henry IV out of my mind: “…commit the oldest sins in the newest kind of ways…” Henry IV Part 2, ACT IV, Scene V.
You know I just realized that the Studio Display & XDR have automatic rotation detection, so Apple could probably include a little utility for leveling your monitor. A virtual bubble level that pops up when it detects you are rotating it back and forth.
I just realized this Topographic watch face actually looks way better if I use the “Legible Digit” option of San Francisco. Gives it a much more outdoorsy look. (This image is if you were standing on the top of Scafell Pike, the tallest mountain in England)
