One of the benefits of the data-driven Navigation API is the programmatic navigation with deep-linking possibilities. SwiftUI maps values of the mutable collection into a view hierarchy and allows us to push and pop views programmatically. swiftwithmajid.com/2022/06/21/mas…

The recording of my talk from @iosconfsg is now available on YouTube! In this talk I share 5 key ideas for building a SwiftUI mindset and show a few examples of what can go wrong in practice when SwiftUI principles are misunderstood. youtube.com/watch?v=Y_Ov-d…

WE PULLED 35 INSIGHTS FROM $3B IN SUBSCRIPTION REVENUE SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO. ENJOY!

To manage app refresh tasks in SwiftUI, we can utilize the backgroundTask modifier, which can be attached to any scene. This modifier enables intelligent scheduling of background tasks. swiftwithmajid.com/2022/07/06/bac…

Hurray! Swift Playground 4.7 is out, bringing the iOS 26 API – including Foundation Models! apps.apple.com/gb/app/swift-p…

@v_murygin Before paywall?

@mecid yeah they do. guideline 3.1.2(a) covers it - you can require a subscription to use the app as long as there's a free trial. just make sure the trial length and price are clear before the paywall screen. had zero issues with review doing this.

Does Apple allow a hard paywall with a free trial option?

The Observations type conforms to the AsyncSequence protocol, allowing us to use instances inside asynchronous for-loops. The closure that initializes the Observations instance implicitly observes all properties of observable instances. swiftwithmajid.com/2025/07/30/str…

I was exploring @TryAstroApp new MCP capabilities and it's really a game changer for iOS indie developers. Below is the complete list of capabilities

Swift Talk 483 Matched Geometry and Corner Radius We try to animate a view’s corner radius with matched geometry effect, and uncover some surprising quirks with SwiftUI transitions.

What do you learn from building a privacy-first analytics platform entirely on Swift? You’ll read all about it in this article by Daniel Jilg Curated in this week's #swiftleeweekly swift.org/blog/building-…

SwiftUI's humble Text view is the foundation of almost every layout, but there's more to it than just showing a string – reserving space is a great way to keep your layouts consistent! hackingwithswift.com/quick-start/sw…

I think if someone offered me a ScrollView replacement that handled chat-like (inverse scrolling) behavior in SwiftUI (even UIKit) for $10,000. I'd pay for it gladly. Never have I ever been more frustrated by having to do something seemingly so simple yet at every step of the way there's another gotcha. I think I must have spent over a billion tokens on this problem and nothing.

Unpopular opinion: the App Store should be strict for new apps and new developer accounts

I prefer to keep my feature’s navigation flow centralized. The Navigator pattern allows me to handle navigation safely. Implementing it is effortless with SwiftUI’s new data-driven Navigation API. swiftwithmajid.com/2022/06/15/mas…

@dan_dee_lyons That’s a limitation of human nature. I believed AI would solve this problem.

@mecid Maybe for the same reasons why a human writes code and then finds bugs: 1. Discovered edge cases 2. The API changed 3. Even the best dev doesn’t get it 100% in one-shot.

So, why do we pay the same LLM to write code, and pay again to find bugs? Why can’t the same LLM write bug-free code when it already knows what problems exist in code?

How much should Codex bill me for this code review? Oh, wait, it's in my plan!

BEING POLITE WITH YOUR PAYWALL IS COSTING YOU 21%. Soft paywalls feel friendlier. Users can explore first. Less pressure. Better UX. The data doesn't care about any of that.
