One component in form from the outside...

I had to update which data SwitchBuddy has, figure out how to efficiently query this and then integrate it into filtering logic on the server 😀
Do you play local multiplayer games? SwitchBuddy will soon make it super simple to find games that support this.

Not only that, you can specify the minimum player count the game should support. Perfect for finding games for four or even eight people 🎉

Took me long enough but I am quite happy with the new carousel 🙂
Finally had the time to do something about the "Up Next" carousel in favorites 😀

The previous version was one of the oldest UI "components" still in the app 😅

Someone requested something similar last year and I am happy to finally add this 😅

Working on the ability to "batch manage" your games 👍

So far these is the ability to toggle multi-select, selects games and then apply tags to all the selected games. 🏷️

Tried generating the changelog from macOS SwiftUI app 😅

I think if I manage to tweak the text and have readable width it could be quite nice 🤔
Version 4.1.0 is now generally available from the App Store 🎉

These are mostly refinements and tweaks for 4.0.0 + some smaller additions like the Bookmark widget and fast access to Magic Find.

I am still working on the big version 5.0.0 update but decided to release smaller one sooner 👀

You will be able to quickly find all upcoming and released games that are only available for #NintendoSwitch2 🎉

This was one of the best games I played in a long time. Local co-op is wonderful when done right. And you have player two of course.

Anyone wants to help me out? 🤝

#iOSDev #indieDev
I would like to release the next big update soon, but since there is a lot of changes + the sync, it would be great to have TestFlight for it 🙂

If you are interested in helping me test it and see the new stuff first, get in touch via the "Chat" feature here 💬

Managed to get #NintendoSwitch2 today 🎉

The shop had almost no info prior to release but in the morning I got notification that I can pick it up from the "delivery box".

Can't wait to dive into MK World tonight and then also maybe get some @switchbuddy.bsky.social ideas 😀

Having themable app is cool, dealing with contrast issues not so much 🫠

At least with this preview I can easily see all colors in light/dark and tweak it.

Not sure why it took me this long but I finally installed Mac version of 1Password (I was using just the browser extension) and it is wonderful!

Shortcut to open their "quick find", another one to copy username, then password and done.

Wonder what similar improvements I am missing 😁

Could use more testers 🙏

Also on TestFligth you can get the premium version for free since the purchases are not real.

#iOSDev #TestFlight
Just wanted to remind that the TestFlight for one of the largest updates ever is still going 🙌

My hope is to release this in the App Store by the end of May.

Tried the #NintendoSwitch2 this weekend. Did not get much playtime but MK World seems amazing and the new Donkey Kong was also great fun.
