Update: Let's just say someone took it for a small trip and it's happy to be back in my posession. Find My is such great technology.

My AirPods Pro 2 case (not the AirPods themselves, they were in my ears) just got stolen and I can see it moving through the city on FindMy.

Not the best timing, with an update right around the corner. 🥲

It‘s weird, right? Took me a while to accept this as the current state of things. I thought I must be missing something.

That‘s the way to go, as far as I know. It kind of sucks.

As somebody who likes it hot, I don't agree with the categorization! 😀

me, working on my new app for iOS 26

That‘s an ill-informed oversimplification of things.

It doesn‘t make any sense structurally that sidebars in Liquid Glass are in a layer above the selected content. It makes them seem more important than the content which they never are.

Guys, hear me out!
Should we bring pinstripes back?!

I agree. They nailed the windowing system. The UI needs tweaking but I think it‘s salvageable. Some things are just plain weird, though. What‘s happening here, for example?

There is no home handle. This is the new windowed mode.

Ah yes, seems like it does disable the clip of the inset but not that of the whole list. Bummer.

Yes! .scrollClipDisabled()

Wait, this is not a gesture that's currently possible in iOS 26 on iPads with the "Windowed Apps" setting enabled, right? Am I missing something?

I don't know what you're talking about, what's a Mastodon, more like Mastodon't talk to me like that, am I right, ayooooo

Exclusive and just for you, my Bluesky friends: I’ve opened a few more TestFlight spots for my upcoming Zettelkasten app, Zettel.

What about an app that shows you your upcoming calendar events and lets you easily and quickly start a Live Activity counting down to the beginning of the event?

#BuildInPublic

Yeah, I have a standing search for one but the best prices are still around 3k€, which... is a lot of money for hardware most people don't seem to use much. 😀
