Launched Relaunched Luncheon was a success!

Glad everybody visiting got to experience the best culinary experience New York City has to offer

Made it through the storm to NYC so we’re making this a thing!

We’re going to be at the Times Square McDonalds (yeah yeah, blame @joshdholtz.com ) at 12:00pm for the official Launched Relaunched Luncheon 😅

Let’s hang out and try to catch a glimpse at the Shipaton billboards 👀
So... Peter made this joke in Slack so now I'm honor bound to make this a real thing.

Any fellow indies gonna be in NYC on Monday and want to meet up for lunch somewhere? 😅

Still wild to me that we’re at the point where I can’t wait to leave the terminal and get on the plane so I have high speed WiFi to work with now with United’s Starlink

Officially on my way to NYC for App Growth Annual! ✈️

Now just hoping we can land in this storm 🤞😅

Launched is now a @revenuecat.com podcast 🙀 and if there’s one thing RevenueCat knows how to do – it's swag 😅

sooooo we’re giving away 50 Launched shirts to those of you who, let's be real, do some free marketing for us 😏

Details below👇

For, uh, no apparent reason. I got the great @matthewskiles.com to refresh the Launched artwork. Whatdya think? 🔍

y’all remember @launchedfm.com?

Wow, Swift Bharat was incredible. Still processing but genuinely one of the greatest iOS conference experiences I’ve ever had. @mufasayc.com and team crushed it. And the Swift community in India is loaded with inspiring, passionate, and kind people.

I have to go back next year 😁

Swift Bharat is off to a start! The vibes are soooo good 😁
September 26, 2025 at 5:05 AM
Tuk tuk at night in Bangalore traffic is quite the experience 😅

My word, South Indian food makes a good first impression. This benne masala dosa was excellent
September 24, 2025 at 11:13 PM
Pretty cool to see the Burj Khalifa, even if it’s just barely through a hazy Dubai sunset from a plane window 😅
September 24, 2025 at 10:40 PM
Short layover in Dubai, but luckily I found this cute local place where I can try some authentic Dubai cuisine
September 24, 2025 at 3:21 PM
Heck yeah. Landed poor man’s first class again on this 14hr flight to Dubai 🙌. Should get some good sleep
September 24, 2025 at 1:16 AM
Hello New York 👋
September 23, 2025 at 9:27 PM
Whoa 😳 – first flight with United’s free Starlink WiFi onboard. This is pretty wild
September 23, 2025 at 5:12 PM
I'm coming to Bangalore, India this week for Swift Bharat! 🇮🇳

It'll be my first time ever in India – what food must I try, and what places should I see?!

(unfortunately my time is brief so probably won't be able to leave the city at all)

The 8x on the new iPhones is pretty sweet
September 20, 2025 at 1:06 AM
This is almost exactly my impressions so far (except haven’t really used ANC yet)

Transparency is super weird, especially with my own voice? Its very shrill compared to real life and the AirPod Pros 2
AirPods Pro 3 impressions:

• ANC is significantly better than APP2.
• Fit is more comfortable.
• Transparency mode is weirdly sibilant and scratchy compared to APP2. Like, I can hear "more," but not as realistically. Not a fan.
• Not a fan of the sound signature. Too bassy.

The blue iPhone 17 Pro in the store is already showing scratches 😬
September 19, 2025 at 2:04 PM
Hey! @darknoise.app is featured in one of the iOS 26 lists on the App Store! 🥰
September 15, 2025 at 7:53 PM
Dark Noise got a little shout out in @dmoren.com's AirPods Pro 3 review!

I actually have a super long fade out feature whenever you set a timer in the app. Wonder if I could detect if you're pausing from sleep to do the same? Or a setting? I'll play around when my new AirPods arrive Friday! 😁
