this was released about 7 years ago, no?
One who thinks that complex software can be "vibe coded", hasn't worked on complex codebases.
Yes, more enjoyable and more human-replaceable!
Just use SwiftKey
You don't need any reports to understand this. Right after the initial tariffs were introduced I compared the prices on Amazon for some items I was buying from EU - the prices increased by 20%.
I'm working on an app for hiking, check it out: https://apps.apple.com/app/lost-trail-hike-with-friends/id64...
Thank you! It might take a few tries before you get used to it. But yes, might have to build what you suggest as well!
By the way, for anyone thinking of increasing organic discoverability some pro tips: 1. Try to decrease crash rates to 0. Ideally 99.9% crash free sessions. 2. Try to increase user retention - the more often user re-open your app, the more likely apple algorithms with rank your app higher. 3. Similar to 2. but the metric is time spent in the app. Try to increase it too.
Thank you! I like the game too, but today it doesn't really make sense to publish games. I believe there are over a million of them on the App Store and the usage is declining anyway - people spend more time watching TikTok these days. Regarding how I managed to get 22 ratings - it's just organic discovery, I think I get around 1-3 downloads per day. On every other session I would ask users to leave a review. I also cross-promote this game through my other games, but that doesn't help a lot.
A while ago I made a game for iOS that simulates vehicles and drifting. It was built in SpriteKit but very easy to do in any 2d game engine. The idea is: you put two wheels in front, connect them to the rectangle car shape with pin joints and then you apply force to the wheels. The angle of the force is very easy to calculate: x = force * cos(bodyRotation + wheelRotation) y = force * sin(bodyRotation + wheelRotation)
That's it! I also added skid particles. The drifting was achieved by playing around with the wheels and body damping. The game is here: https://apps.apple.com/app/drift-mania-infinite-car-racer/id...
Might be, but I think google would still be able to chase them down.
I'm not a lawyer but I think even if you offset the legal responsibilities to the user by alerting them with copyrights prompt it's still illegal to download youtube videos.
Youtube's T&C don't allow downloading youtube audio/video. How do other services get away with it?

I made an invoice maker app. Available for iOS and macOS. It's a document-based app with custom file format for invoices: https://apps.apple.com/app/invoice-maker-quote-builder/id153...
I made a plant care app for iOS and macOS. Making few hundreds $$$ on it - https://apps.apple.com/app/plant-care-identify-flowers/id161...
A simple SpriteKit 2d game for iOS. Almost all the code for this game was generated using Claude.ai and image assets were generated using Midjourney.
There's a nice game that simulates this on iOS. Falcon Lander - SpaceX Edition
Soviet Union did actually show their nuclear power 3 years after by exploding Tsar Bomba
There also should be a fan connected in front of the cyclist. The power can increase/decrease depending on how fast you cycle.
