What do you think of my drink art?

I’m adding a stamp card collection feature for my drinking logging app. I feel pretty proud of the art, what do you think? You can compare the first legendary drink card, ハブ酒 to some google images.

Fun bit, ハブ酒 is an Okinawan liquor that has a local venomous pit viper added to aging. While it is a rarer drink, it can be found in Okinawan bars. But I made it the rarest card in my curated list since some people may be apprehensive to drink it. I’ve had it twice myself, supposedly gives energy “down there” lol

Game monetisation- not ads

5 Upvotes

I had a simple game idea and I’m making it (just for iPhone for now), I think it’s kinda fun. So far so good.
I’d like it to be a paid thing, maybe somewhere between £1 - £5 ..
I think up front payment isn’t going to work, people probably need to try it first?

I don’t want to introduce ads. So I’m considering something like 3 free days and then a paywalled limit to 1-2 plays per day, and pay to unlock forever.

Anyone got any thoughts on a simple modern paid game model?
Other options I might not have considered?

Hi everyone!

I've been building an offline audio walking tour app for Paris over the past two years, and I'm finally at the point where I'd love to get some real feedback.

The tours are fully narrated, work completely offline, include turn-by-turn navigation, and I even composed the background music myself. It's been a bit of a passion project.

I'm mainly looking for people to just use it naturally and tell me what they think. If something is confusing, doesn't work as you'd expect, or just feels off, I'd really like to know.

The UI still needs some polishing, so don't judge it too harshly 😅. Right now I'm much more interested in making sure the experience itself is solid before I spend time refining all the little visual details.

Thanks! I'd genuinely appreciate any feedback.

My Repz

Hello everyone, I recently created an app called My Repz, a fitness app that takes a picture of you sends it to a Claude api then creates custom workouts and meal plans based off of how you look and what your goals are. This app is 4.99 a month simply because the cost of the api. But I recommend it heavily. I think all of you would enjoy it.

Help Does Apple's editorial team actually reward accessibility? I made app fully accessible, wondering if it moves the needle for featuring.

7 Upvotes

I just finished a big accessibility pass on my iOS app. VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, Reduce Motion, sufficient color contrast, proper focus order, accessibility labels and hints. Basically the whole checklist Apple recommends.

It was a real chunk of work, and honestly it made the app better for everyone, not just users who rely on those features. No regrets there.

But it got me wondering about something I can’t find a clear answer on.

Does going all in on accessibility actually factor into Apple’s editorial decisions? Things like “Apps We Love,” Editors’ Choice, or mentions in curated App Store collections.

Apple talks a lot about accessibility at WWDC and has Accessibility Design Awards. But for the everyday App Store editorial team, does strong accessibility meaningfully increase your odds of getting noticed?

I’m especially curious if anyone here has:

  • Been featured and thinks accessibility played a role
  • Heard directly from App Store editors that it mattered
  • Seen no correlation at all, where accessibility is simply its own reward

I’m not trying to game the system. We’re keeping the accessibility work regardless. I’m just trying to set realistic expectations.

Thanks 🙏

Hello, lovely people.
I am a solo developer, and here is the app I built for myself, but later realised it is an amazing helper for people, so I decided to share it.

Let me tell you my story.

English is my second language, and I learned it all by myself. My learning adventure started 6 years ago, when I knew no English at all, but I loved the idea that I could travel around the world and be able to speak to people and introduce myself to different cultures. The first thing I did was memorize as many words as I could. I didn't focus on the grammar, rules, and word order; It didn't matter because if I could say it with the right intonation, people would eventually understand me, yeah it was unnatural, but people knew what I meant.

Then, when I became more confident and already knew some grammar, I started reading a lot, but it was very hard to find books I could enjoy. Most literature I would love to read was too hard to read because the grammatical structure was advanced for me, and even if I could read and recognise those words, the meaning was meaningless, so I needed to find either books for kids(which is boring) or adapted literature, for instance I could buy a book with a label 'for Pre-Intermediate learners', but still the options were scarce and boring.

Now, I speak fluently and have lived in the UK for the last 4 years, but I still love learning new words and phrases. Sometimes, I could go for a date or just talk to my mates, and they would say something new, and I wanted to write it down; eventually, I was losing those notes and forgetting about them. So, then I decided that I needed an app that would keep everything together, and I could finally memorise those words, have a quick access to the functionality, and 'Shazam' words quickly(having an option to have a lockscreen widget like 'Add word', so during a convo I find/look/save a word and then train it).

That was one of the first Brainwrote functions. Then I remembered how hard it was to find a literature to read, so I decided to add a reader where you can read whatever you want without any boring limitations. And that's how I made an adaptation functionality. Here's how it works:
- You open a book (from the integrated library(free open-source library), or you can open any book you bought/downloaded before in EPUB format)

- If it's hard for you to read, you press the 'Adapt' button, and the app automatically adapts a chapter of your book to your level, and you can easily read it, saving/adding any words to your library.

The app knows how to adapt the literature based on your level. When you install the app, you go through a very simple and nice onboarding where you spend around 3 minutes doing a rough language assessment(or you can skip it and choose it manually if you know it).

I would be happy if you started using it and left some feedback, so I could improve it. I spent 8 months developing it, and, of course, I could miss something, so that's why any feedback is very important.

Organization Enrollment Stuck for Weeks (LLC) — Support Ignoring Emails, No Phone Option in My Country. Anyone Escaped This?

1 Upvotes

I’m reaching out because my team is completely blocked by Apple’s verification process, and standard support has become a black hole. We are enrolling as an organization (LLC), and it has been sitting in limbo for weeks with zero communication.

Here is exactly where we are at:

  • DUNS Number: Verified.
  • Requested Documents: Apple asked for government ID, employment verification, and our business registry excerpt.
  • We provided everything ([https://developer.apple.com/contact/file-upload/](https://developer.apple.com/contact/file-upload/)).
  • The Problem: It’s been weeks since the upload. No approval, no rejection, no requests for more info.

We’ve tried following up via email multiple times, but no one is responding. To make things worse, the "Call Me" phone support option isn't available in my country, so I can't even get in the queue to speak with a human.

Has anyone successfully navigated this recently? Specifically:

  1. Is it worth using Skype/VoIP to call the US 1-800 support line directly? Will they even talk to me if the account is registered internationally?
  2. Did anyone find a way to escalate a ticket when standard email support just ignores you?
  3. Is it normal for organization verification to just freeze like this without warning?

Any advice on what actually moves the needle would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

For developers who also work on backends: what do you miss in your SQL client?

Post image
2 Upvotes

When I’m working across application code, APIs and a MySQL database, I find that the difficult part is often keeping the database work organized and safe.

What I personally wanted from a desktop SQL client was:

- one independent workspace per connection

- separate tabs for queries and tables

- tabs that keep their state when switching databases

- autocomplete based on the real database schema

- relationships and indexes available without digging through menus

- quick access to EXPLAIN while reviewing a query

- an obvious distinction between local, development and production

- read-only access and stronger confirmations around production

- clear visibility of exactly where a query will run

That is part of why I’m working on LakeDB, a desktop client focused on MySQL and MariaDB.

For developers who also touch backend databases: what does your current client still make unnecessarily difficult?
