⭐️ Portal 1.6 is out now with a new feature we are calling ”Circadian Flow”. A single click Portal will now automatically shift with your time of day. Also collection playlists & audio normalisation.
📺 We are about to open up an AppleTV beta next week so ping me if you want to get in on that.

Anyone else’s App Store Connect Trends tab look like this or is it just me? It’s been like this for multiple weeks now.

A month ago we shipped these pretty offers in the Mac app. 🌟
To date not a single person has taken up the offer. Weird. 🤔
Turns out I made a bug and the offer has never shown to any customers. 🤦♂️

Did anyone else’s TestFlight purchases on Mac break this week, or just me?
I just get an “Account not in this store” alert and seemingly no way to fix it. 😞

The solution I came up with in #SwiftUI is a little monster I like to call ForEachThatFits.
Genius or evil? I really can’t decide. It works though!👌

We have tags for each location in Portal. There are sometimes lots of tags but we only show as many as will fit nicely on a single row. It took me a while to figure out a nice way to do this in #SwiftUI without using GeometryReader.
Any guesses?

Found these toppers around town today. So lovely to see and really brought a smile to my face. Such amazing attention to detail on the town hall one. What an incredible effort.
I’m normally a “no Christmas until December” kind of guy but feeling festive now so we may get the tree up today. 🎄

Added a basic referral system to Portal this week. Members can pass on 30 days free access to share with anyone they want. Quite happy with how this turned out, hopefully customers enjoy it too.
