Oops Again is here 🚀🎂 After weeks of sharing the story behind this app, today is the day. Oops Again is live on the App Store! Download it now 👇 (1/4) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

Every other week I hear from yet another European clone of some big tech social media, except with "European values" (which are conveniently never detailed). We need something different, because we can do so much better. That's why we're building Eurosky.

Tomorrow is the big day. Oops Again launches on the App Store AND on Product Hunt 🚀 I've been sharing the story of how and why I built this app over the past two weeks. (1/3) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

Let's talk about money. Because I want to be transparent about this 💶 Oops Again lets you try every single feature for free. The birthday list, the widget, adding birthdays, custom reminders. (1/3) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

If you're a journalist, blogger or content creator and want to write about Oops Again — I made it easy for you 🙌🏻 I put together a press kit with everything you need. (1/3) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

Every app needs a face. And I knew I couldn't do this one alone 🎨 I'm a developer, not a designer. (1/4) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

I'm thrilled to share that my first article is officially live! 🎉 It's the first in a series about Apple's Network framework, comparing Multipeer Connectivity and the Network framework to help you pick the right one. Would love to hear what you think! Here’s the Link: medium.com/@fatemehshek...

Finding a name for the app took me forever 😅 I didn't want something generic. No "Birthday Reminder Pro". No "Birthday Calendar Plus". Nothing that sounds like every other app on the App (1/3) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

So excited to hold my first talk in a long time this Thursday evening! If you're in Hamburg, still looking for a place to hang out on Thursday evening and want to learn about #AlarmKit in #iOS26, come by our office at betahaus Hamburg Gänsemarkt! RSVP here --> lnkd.in/e6Zi_52c

I wanted to know whose birthday is coming up without even opening the app 👀 So I built a Home Screen widget. It shows the next upcoming birthday right there on your Home Screen. Name, photo, (1/3) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

Let's talk about privacy. Because this one was personal to me 🔒 Oops Again reads three things from your contacts: names, birthdays and photos. That's it. Nothing else. (1/4) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

One decision I made very early on: I'm not building another place where you put in your friends' data 🙅‍♂️ Think about it. A person's contact card already has a birthday field.

One thing was non-negotiable for me from the start: Oops Again has to feel like it belongs on your iPhone 🍎 I didn't want a custom design language. (1/4) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

I knew what I didn't want. Now I had to figure out what I actually wanted 🤔 So I wrote it down. The entire feature list of my dream birthday app: A list of all upcoming birthdays. Reminders (1/3) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

Okay so the calendar wasn't cutting it. Time to check the App Store for birthday reminder apps 🔍 There are a bunch of them. And I tried a few. But something always felt off 😕 The most (1/4) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

Then I discovered something. If you add a birthday to a person's contact card, iOS creates a birthday calendar automatically 🤯 Add the birth year too and it even shows you how old they get. (1/4) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

So I wanted to remember birthdays. First thing I did? Added them as recurring yearly appointments to my iOS calendar 📅 Sounds reasonable right? It wasn't 😅 You never actually know how old (1/3) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain

I forgot my friend's birthday. I found out a day later scrolling through my feed and felt terrible about it 😔 That guilty feeling of "I should have known" hit me hard. And it wasn't the first (1/2) #BuildInPublic #Dev #IndieDev #iOS #iOSDev #Swift #SwiftUI #App #AppDev #BirthdayReminder #OopsAgain
