One side benefit of Dynamic Island is using custom icons with Shortcut is a lot less disruptive.

If you’re into iOS 16’s new Lock Screen widgets, you need Widgetsmith from @_DavidSmith in your toolbox. The app’s editor for creating widgets is easy to use and flexible, with dozens of templates to start with. My @macstoriesnet review: macstories.net/reviews/widge…

Under The Radar was an especially good one this week. We introduced the… Developer Design-Management Pentagon? (the name changes every time) You can’t optimize for everything. What’s important to you, and where will you need to compromise to achieve it? overcast.fm/+Fgna4hbAw

.@_DavidSmith had a beautiful analogy about building with SwiftUI on the latest episode of Under the Radar. In today's video I discuss David's analogy and my own experience with this #SwiftUI philosophy. 🎥 VIDEO - youtube.com/watch?v=pkv-iTr3…

I strongly believe we need WidgetKit to provide an 'Add Widget' button similar to the 'Add to Siri' button in the IntentsUI framework, and as such, I've filed feedback. Please duplicate it if you feel the same way. github.com/simonbs/AppleFeed…

This week, for the very first time, Under The Radar is longer than 30 minutes — and for a very good reason: We have TWO Apple guests on the show, recorded in the new Developer Center at WWDC 2022! overcast.fm/+FgnZC5Mbo

I'm really proud to present What's new in SwiftUI for iOS 14: Extended Edition – almost 1½ hours of hands-on coding with SwiftUI, with 35 timestamps listed in the description so you can jump straight to the parts you care about. youtu.be/-h8pk2pe7Xo

It looks like Watchsmith’s complication rendering isn’t working in the watchOS 7 beta. I think I’ve found the problem and should be able to get a fix out soon, but in the meantime you’ll just get empty entries for all types.
