New: Charging animations are coming to Unplugged! ⚡️ The best part? They enable real-time Live Activities on Apple Watch. No delays, no internet needed. Version 3.5 is in review 🎉🥳 #iOSDev #AppleWatch #IndieDevs

So happy about this 😄

Reviews like this make all the late nights worth it ❤️ When users tell you your accessibility made a difference... it's the best motivation to find more time to code! 😁 #indiedev #buildinpublic #accessibility

Balancing work, a baby teething, family over Christmas and New Year's, and indie dev life made this update take waaaay longer than planned 😅 But hey, it got there! 🎉 Hope you enjoy the new complications! Worth every sleep-deprived coding session ⚡️🤪 #IndieDevLife #SideProject #WorkLifeBalance

Testing these new complications like… Someone: ‘What time is it?’ Me: ‘My battery’s at 35%’ 😅 Not the answer you were expecting, huh? Can’t wait for you all to try these on your wrists! ⌚ #IndieDev #AppleWatch #BatteryLife #WatchOS

Looks like I’ve got my work cut out for me! 😅 Huge thanks to everyone who reached out with the promo. I’ll be diving into all the feedback and responding to each message as fast as I can. Appreciate all the love and support! ❤️ Please bare with me! 🙏 #IndieDev #BuildInPublic

Well, I guess Santa’s running out of gift ideas, because he’s handing out my free Lifetime sub to @unpluggedapp.bsky.social 🎅 If you’ve got an Apple Watch (or know someone who does), might as well take advantage of my attempt at holiday marketing 🎁 Merry Christmas 😄 apps.apple.com/us/app/unplu...

Me coding: 💻✨ Me writing this promo tweet: 😬🎅 Turns out marketing’s harder than I thought… but hey, if it’s in the spirit of Christmas and means someone gets something for free, maybe it’s not so bad after all! 🎁 Merry Christmas! #MerryChristmas #FakeItTillYouMakeIt #indiedev

Happy to give a little something for Christmas… well, technically after! 🎄 But I hope anyone who grabs the offer enjoys @unpluggedapp.bsky.social ! 🎁🔋 Merry Christmas to all! #ChristmasGiveaway #FreeForLife #BatteryTracking #IndieDev #AppPromo

Why check your phone’s battery when your watch already knows it better? With v2.12, auto-updating complications are a wrist flick away. Your phone gets a break, and you get to act like you have your life together. #AppleWatch #BatteryLife

aaaand they are here!!!! all the talks of NSSpain XII, our 12th edition! vimeo.com/showcase/115... happy xmas everyone! enjoy! 🎄🥳

Had a bug in my app @unpluggedapp.bsky.social that I struggled with for months, left it alone for a while, and BOOM! Fixed in 10 minutes the other day. I swear, the code knows when you’re not looking—or the coding gods have a sense of humor. 😂 #IndieDev #DevLife #BugFix

Just another day in the life of an indie developer.

For app developers: What factors do you consider most when setting subscription pricing for your app? I’m rethinking subscription strategies and would love to hear your thoughts! #buildinpublic #indiedev #iOSDev

Version 1.1.0 of #LinksKit now available! 🚀 LinksKit makes it easy to add essential links like privacy, terms, and ratings to your apps. This update adds support for Xcode 15 & the addition of Bluesky. Big thank you to contributors Aditya & Christian! 🙏

Any tips on handling side projects, a full-time job, and an 8-month-old. Is there like an API for more hours in the day? 😅👶💻 #DevDad #ParentingInProgress #indiedev

👨‍💻 Me: spends months building battery management app My own phone: dies while typing these tweets... Oh the irony... 😅 #IndieDevLife #DevLife #DevHumor

Excited to share insights from Setapp’s Mac Developer Survey: 😱 Only 20% distribute apps exclusively in the Mac App Store 🤯 46% use a home-grown solution for distribution 🚀 33% use LLM in development Full report: stpp.co/3ZvBLNU Disclaimer: Sponsored by Setapp, but these are my genuine takeaways.

That feeling when you get back to your side project after a hiatus... pure joy! ✨ Excited to be working on @unpluggedapp.bsky.social improvements again. Missed this more than I thought! #SideProject #IndieDevLife
