Saw a bunch of posts wondering how the App Store logo works (is it just sticks??), so I made a little 3D printed visualization of the 3 tilted app icons that come together to make it, it's really quite clever! Makes for a fun desk ornament too ☺️

✅ App Store ✅ Shortcuts ✅ TestFlight These Apple logos are actually 3D renders of app icons: matthewcassinelli.com/apple-logos-...

Here's a handul of linked posts I shared on my blog today: matthewcassinelli.com/blog

Just published a new podcast for my membership program covering Shortcuts news from the last few months: matthewcassinelli.com/members-only... Here's my workflow – Audio Hijack, Logic, Forecast, and Transistor. Using an @elgato.com Wave DX / Wave XLR combo + Elgato Noise Removal

Portland needs a downtown/midtown Streetcar loop to connect the Waterfront, Pioneer Courthouse Square, and Powell's. Start at Salmon Street Springs, connect to the main Streetcar line, and back through the food cart corridor. Make Downtown Portland one destination, not three.

Just came across the iOS 26 release notes for Shortcuts and put them up on my site: matthewcassinelli.com/whats-new-in...

Swap Pixelmator with Shortcuts and I agree: matthewcassinelli.com/creative-neg... Pixelmator is fine so far IMO

Massive congratulations to Ari and the team 👏 matthewcassinelli.com/openai-acqui...

If Shortcuts was as user-friendly as I want it to be, I'd have been out of a job a long time ago: matthewcassinelli.com/jason-snell-...

Is it just me or do none of these keyboard shortcuts work in #Shortcuts for Mac? They took away the Command modifier and these just don't work at all now.

Hello. I have updated my consulting page and would like your feedback please: matthewcassinelli.com/consulting/ Does it make sense? Is it clear what I’m offering? I have case studies on the way too.

🚨 iOS 26 is here! 🚨 Tons of apps are updating – here's a thread of everything I can find:

Developers – I will be sharing posts from apps updated for iOS 26 tomorrow. Create a post sharing both what your app does and what’s new, and I’ll add it to an ongoing thread – on all platforms. Reply here or when you see the post on Monday. Looking forward to seeing your updates!

Not gonna lie this is exactly why Shortcuts exists and why it’s dumb that more brands aren’t adopting Apple Intelligence. Please let me get to my goal and move on.

Trying out a new membership perk – spoken audio versions of my blog posts in podcast form. First trial is up: matthewcassinelli.com/members-only...

Shortcuts is gaining Apple Intelligence support in iOS 26, with actions for: - Use Model - Visual Intelligence - Image Playground - Writing Tools Check out these tools—and more actions—available now in the Public Beta: matthewcassinelli.com/ios-26-publi...

Basic Apple Guy wallpapers are now featured & bundled into Widgetsmith! 🤝 Kinda wild to say this… but my work is now featured in Widgetsmith! Huge honour to be part of an app that’s on millions of homescreens! I'm grateful beyond words. widgetsmith.app

🎨 In iOS 26, you can now use the Shortcuts app with Apple’s Cloud model to generate ALT-friendly captions for any photo. Great for accessible social media posts! #iOS26 #ShortcutsApp #Accessibility #ALTtext

One benefit of App Intents is standardizing the interaction paradigm for all apps, while allowing the specialization to shine via snippets. Also new this year is a literal Undo feature

Planning a gathering for WWDC folks in SF to get drinks tonight. Reply if you’re interested in joining!

We’re thrilled so many are coming! Outside of the meet-ups, the patio & common area are open on a first‑come, first‑served basis. If there’s a huge surge, we may run out of space—arrive early to secure your spot! Thanks for making us the most-attended event at #WWDC25 🤯

If you’re around for WWDC, next Tuesday afternoon is my free meetup. Come learn all about Apple Intelligence, App Intents, and Shortcuts updates! Details: lu.ma/ai6mx0lr?tk=...

Adjusted my WWDC plans and I’m coming down early to SF this Wednesday instead, before going down to Cupertino on Saturday. Also hosting a meetup the day after the keynote right next to Apple Park: lu.ma/ai6mx0lr?tk=...

I’ve been testing Sky, a new AI layer for Mac from folks behind Workflow & Shortcuts. ⌘⌘ captures on-screen content, then the AI both answers & gives actions to take. Sky uses both built-in & custom tools – so you can add anything to your AI. Thread of my initial thoughts:

Oh openai.com/sam-and-jony/

We’re testing a new feature! Starting this week, select accounts can add a livestream link to sites like YouTube or Twitch, and their Bluesky profile will show they’re live now.

This was cool

Happy Friday! Don’t forget to sign up for your free #CommunityKit ticket! We’ve partnered with some of our friends, and your ticket gives you a chance to win the ultimate #WWDC25 ticket package! 30 people can get an all inclusive ticket to other community events, details below 1/2 lu.ma/fhswia1a

Huge shoutout to @amerpie.lol for his very, very positive review of my contextual #Shortcuts launcher #BarCuts. I'm positively blushing 🙏🏼 In case you don't know him: Lou is a prolific macOS app reviewer. His blog is great for finding new things, is what I'm saying

Group chat for the Airbnb at WWDC officially started 🙇🏻‍♂️

I taught 300 people how to build for Apple Intelligence yesterday!

Who’s going to be at Deep Dish Swift? Please reply with a pizza emoji if you’ll be there/are speaking so I can make a list.

Thanks for all the workflows – this website changed my life 🤌

A wild SENTINELITE appears!

Passed through Portland the other day & got to meetup with @matthewcassinelli.bsky.social! 4 Years in the making! We had such a wonderful, honest talk about shortcuts, apps, & career stuff! 👀 #IndieDev #Tech

Episode 15 of the @deepdishswift.com podcast is out! 🍕 In this one, @kaidombrowski.com and I chat with @matthewcassinelli.bsky.social about Shortcuts and App Intents, his background in marketing, and his journey to joining the Workflow team 📱 podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/s... #DeepDishSwift

Who’s going to be at Deep Dish Swift? Please reply with a pizza emoji if you’ll be there/are speaking so I can make a list.

Now that we’re fully in the age of AI, what does it mean to be an App Dev? Also, what’s the difference between App Intents and MCP? Join me with AI consultant Connor Hammond as we discuss live: youtube.com/live/gsAlhi0...

Good. Let’s not rush it and have another cycle like this one

I've been experimenting with @simonwillison.net' LLM CLI in Shortcuts, and I've put together a system to take YouTube transcripts of videos and reformat them for clarity. It also extracts key quotes from a video. It works with Claude 3.7 and Gemini 2.5 Pro. www.macstories.net/mac/llm-yout...

More than 5 years since launch, I’m updating the examples on @chartyios.app 2.0. Here’s the current list! There’s some favorites (Weight Analysis) and some updated ones (Data from CSV). Also, there’s new ones such as a Reminders’ tasks tracker which can be modified to work with OmniFocus or Things 😊

New client work is out – designed a complete App Intents experience with Foodnoms 🙇🏻‍♂️

I’m being asked to appear on an interview podcast, but want to make sure there are a few more unique voices. I’ve already made my own list of people to send them. If you have suggestions, please share them below 👇

Apple Intelligence might be coming sooner than we think… Apps can now securely tell Siri what's on-screen – the key functionality for Personal Context: matthewcassinelli.com/personal-con...

I’m fairly certain that a subset of the bugs in Shortcuts will plague Apple Intelligence (real) at launch, and despite being handed to them directly will not be resolved in time bsky.app/profile/matt...
