We’re very happy with this feature, which serves as a foundation for much more to come.

This is happening to Danny’s app ever since Monday. The icon is gone

Contacted DTS, they said to wait for feedback
Has this happened to anyone?? How is this possible?

Still no icon showing up for Tutti on the iPadOS 26 App Store.
Hurts to spend months working on a release and then have this happen. If you work for Apple and/or have any idea how to resolve, I'd appreciate the help <3

Finalist 3 is out after nine months of coding 😅 It's a daily planner that manages your calendars and reminders better than your Reminders app. I'm running a crazy launch special: get a lifetime license for $5 (five!) dollars

Semi-regular plea to devs: please have press kits. I’m writing end of year round-ups and it does make things ever so much easier when I can just grab an image and whack it in a feature. (A plain image – not one baked into an iPhone or with lots of writing over it.)
