🧭 I was going to be an archaeologist but I changed my mind when I found out that it wasn't as exciting as in Indiana Jones.
We’re in the final stretch, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have some fun polishing the @fitwoody.camp onboarding 🫨

It probably wasn’t necessary to recreate the patterns of a real passport… but we did it anyway 😅

That’s how the #FitPassport was born, a new way to see how you’re doing and what kind of athlete you are.

Now available in the @fitwoody.camp beta 🪪✨

We don’t usually show this kind of thing, but here’s a video of the very first prototype of the #FitPassport from @fitwoody.camp. You can’t imagine how much it has evolved over the past few weeks. 🫣

So much for those who say you can’t build cool stuff with #SwiftUI.

For the past few weeks, the MX Master 3s has been disconnecting from my computer every time I put my Mac to sleep, and I have to pair it again.

I’ve tried switching mice, updating, etc. Any recommendations?

We’ve all said:
👉 “This year for sure”
👉 “I’ll start on Monday”
👉 “Tomorrow I begin”

The problem was never starting.
The problem was staying consistent.

Starting today, that gets easier with @fitwoody.camp. Beta 3 is live 🎯

You don’t get an email from Apple every day saying they want to feature you on the App Store.

Getting this message right now, while we’re working hard on the V2 of @fitwoody.camp, is one of those small joys that keeps you going.

Now it’s @patricia-bedoya.bsky.social’s turn to get the assets ready!

Localizing the app into 34 languages without breaking the UI.
Hebrew, Arabic, German… everything fits just right.
No redrawing a single screen.
No hacks.

📐 Because if your design breaks with a German label…
It wasn’t good design.

I wouldn’t think twice about trading my 11” iPad Pro for this… just to run Xcode + Claude Code.

With the AI boom, the most interesting apps aren’t on iOS anymore — they’re on Mac or the browser.

🧠 In @fitwoody.camp V1, we adjusted your daily goal based on how you were feeling but no one really noticed. Literally.

🤷🏻‍♂️ You saw fewer calories and thought: “Does the app love me less today?”

It’s the least exciting thing we’re doing for @fitwoody.camp V2, but I couldn’t be prouder of how the Settings turned out. ⚙️

In April, before Apple even announced #LiquidGlass, we were already playing with translucent materials for the new @fitwoody.camp home screen.

✨ No specs. No guidelines. Just intuition, rumors… and a few clues hidden in Sports and Invites.

Buying cheap knockoffs is ignorance of what it means to imagine, create, and put yourself out there.

Cycling can count as work when what you’re building is a fitness app 🚴‍♂️

Some thoughts on dogfooding, empathy and truly understanding your users when you're developing an app.

I know App Store Connect has a bad rep for reviews… but what’s going on with #PlayStore these past weeks takes the cake:
🔹 Arbitrary rejections of things previously approved
🔹 3-7 days to review an internal test build

Insane.

The kind of work no one sees… but everything depends on 🧹

✅ Core of @fitwoody.camp fully rewritten
✅ Swift 6 + modern concurrency
✅ Own backend: @supabase.com + @powersync.com
✅ Goodbye to 1.0’s technical debt

Not flashy work, but it’s what holds everything together.
Now the fun🔥 #buildinpublic

Building a fitness app has its perks.
Like hopping on a bike for work whenever there’s something new to test 😅

Today we took @fitwoody.camp out with @patricia-bedoya.bsky.social And yes, we did break a sweat, all in the name of product testing 😅

No more excuses. The "I can't today". The "tomorrow I start."

📣 We created @fitwoody.camp 2.0 to help you achieve the best version of yourself.

10+ months of work. All redone from scratch: new design, new code, a new direction.

👀 You'll be interested. #BuildInPublic

Beyond memes or Jony Ive, #Claude has the best models to work with. Whether you want me to help you program or chew information, there is no color.

The new desktop mode on Android is really impressive. What a shame on Apple and the iPad.

It’s wild that Google beat Apple in bringing a full IDE to the iPad with Firebase Studio.

I can now build Android apps on an iPad using #AndroidStudio, just like on a Mac.

Meanwhile, Xcode on iPad? Still missing after all these years.

Embarrassing.
