Sad day 😢

MacFormat named Pieoneer their App of the Month 🫶

Over-engineering? Just another form of taking care.

Here’s how to switch apps on your Mac — in style

Inspired by the excellent accessibility sessions at this year’s #WWDC, I spent this week implementing #VoiceOver support in #Pieoneer.

Some said it couldn’t be done. But I didn’t stop innovating. The calendar icon in Pieoneer now shows the *actual* date.

Pie-Opening Possibilities

New recipe. Now 100% telemetry-free.

Your music—soon with extra spin

A Radially New Music Remote

Native speakers — what would you call this effect?

Currently bending #Pieoneer into a music remote. It’s weird. It’s fun. It might just work.

Throwback to 2018, when I was creating #Swift tutorial videos for my YouTube channel. The language was still fairly new, and I was excited to dive in and share what I was learning.

Weekend treat! 🍫 Couverture is free this weekend — no strings attached, just sweet software goodness. Enjoy and share the love! → apps.apple.com/app/id155241...

Make smart user interfaces

Nothing is Ever Done

What should I call this mode?

One Shortcut to Rule Them All

Throwback Thursday: Here’s my 3D animated onboarding screen from Entity Pro (2020)

Own your tools—not the other way around. #Modyfi, a platform that once promised “Design without limits”, got acquired by Figma. Users have until June 13 to export their work—except for layered animation files, which can’t be exported at all. This is why we need more software that runs offline.

When iA Writer meets Pieoneer — sparks fly ✨

It’s Toggle Tuesday! 🐳 For interfaces with limited space, I designed this Compact Horizontal Toggle™ #toggletuesday

Rules can be broken. But never ignored.

Craft is in the details. Way back in 2020, I modeled the Entity Pro app icon entirely in 3D so I could animate it during onboarding. And there’s a little Easter egg I’ve kept to myself until now—my (old) wordmark was secretly engraved on the back of the icon.

New studio set up. Ready for my #YouTube career 🤓

It’s Toggle Tuesday! For #PolyCapture, my multi-source recording app, I designed a vertical toggle button — inspired by the sliding controls of the Braun Nizo Integral camera (a design by Peter Schneider). #toggletuesday

How It Started vs. How It Ended #Pieoneer

I have a special fascination for micro UIs—they are the smallest, yet in some contexts, the most meaningful act of care for users.

iOS 18.4 has arrived, and with it, a fresh batch of new emojis—now ready to explore in #Codepoint! As much as I’d love to, I had no say in their design 🥸

#Sustainability in software means continuous adaptation. Unlike physical products (think Rams’ 606 shelving system), software exists in a constantly shifting environment. Every OS update brings potential incompatibilities. (1/3)

Happy Birthday, Apple Computer Company! 🍏 I’ll never forget the day I met #Woz in person, and the hugely inspirational conversation we didn’t have because I was too nervous to say anything at all.

Got something !Boring by @andy.works in the mail today. Ditch the defaults—support interesting!

If the upcoming version of #macOS really does gain more visual materiality and depth, I hope it strikes a balanced approach—just like in my apps, where only selected elements get a physical touch

If I’m not coding, I’m designing—today, it’s my new office.

I’ve been diving into genealogy research for a few months now, but I’m still on the hunt for the perfect offline Mac app to document and organize all my findings. Any recommendations? None of the apps I’ve tried so far have convinced me. I’m *this* close to starting a new project in Xcode 🤓

#Pieoneer can launch any app — but what if it’s not in your Applications folder? 🧐 No worries! Even apps like Finder can be added effortlessly. Just use the search function and boom—there it is!

Personally, I simply prefer the standard Apple Magic Keyboard. But if I were into custom keyboards, a key designed by Susan Kare would definitely be my first choice! aspreystudio.com/products/sus...

I’ve tinkered with something new! 🛠️ Instead of behaving like a regular context menu on #macOS, a new mode in #Pieoneer will display the pie menu only while you’re holding its shortcut. If an item is selected when you release the key, its action runs automatically—just like in many games!

The first 300 ratings are in, and #Pieoneer scores 4.7 out of 5 stars! ✨ Reviews help apps shine and shape their future! If you haven’t left one yet, I’d be thrilled if you shared some kind words in the store. 🤍 apps.apple.com/app/id673978...

Head over to the Mac App Store—the update is here! 🥳

Latest pie. Greatest pie! Here’s a sneak peak at #Pieoneer’s most requested feature: keyboard control. ⌨️

Sharing is caring! 🍰 With the latest update, you can now import and export Pieoneer’s app shortcuts.
