My @Hetzner_Online manager app now offers support for four languages. I worked with native speakers to craft each part of the app to ensure smooth integration 😊 update your app today apps.apple.com/ca/app/rackli…

Here is your daily reminder to rethink free trials. Within 1 minute the user activated a free trial and canceled it.

RoadReady has become a pretty good example of why I enjoy building native iOS apps: SwiftUI for the experience, Apple frameworks for the deep integrations, and a focused product problem underneath it all.

I deliberately kept @RevenueCat separate from vehicle data. It manages subscriptions; it doesn’t get VINs, mileage, documents, insurance details, or Family Garage records. apps.apple.com/us/app/road-r…

WidgetKit + App Intents + Siri Shortcuts gave RoadReady some of my favorite “small” features. The best utilities are the ones that can help before you even fully open them.

RoadReady uses VisionKit and Apple’s on-device capabilities for scanning workflows where possible. Less manual typing, especially when you’re dealing with VINs and documents. apps.apple.com/us/app/road-r…

There is an interesting feature coming to RoadReady later this week. For persons with multiple vehicles, now you can add custom colors to your vehicle 🚗

The RoadReady subscription migration ended up with 1,159 automated tests across 107 suites. Probably excessive for a “simple car app,” but reliability matters when purchases are involved. 😂

A lot of people seem to be locked in Apple's review 'jail'. Hold the faith; hope you get bail soon 🫡

RoadReady doesn’t require you to create an account just to use the app. That was a deliberate product and technical decision.

Family Garage is powered by CloudKit sharing. That gave me a native Apple path for sharing selected vehicle data without building a whole account system from scratch. apps.apple.com/us/app/road-r…

One technical decision I’m happy with: RoadReady keeps sensitive vehicle information on-device wherever practical instead of shipping everything off to a backend.

VIN decoding in RoadReady uses NHTSA data, which lets the app turn a VIN into useful vehicle information without maintaining a giant proprietary vehicle database. apps.apple.com/us/app/road-r…

The core stack behind RoadReady includes SwiftUI, SwiftData, StoreKit/RevenueCat, CloudKit, WidgetKit, App Intents, VisionKit, and Apple’s notification frameworks.

RoadReady is built natively in SwiftUI. I wanted the experience to feel like it belongs on iPhone, not like a web app squeezed into a mobile shell. apps.apple.com/us/app/road-r…
