| Apple watch should have a "Sick" mode Posted: 29 Feb 2020 09:02 AM PST I'm one of the people who uses the health and activity functions of my Apple watch religiously every day. I'm currently sick with the flu and so I've adjusted my goals down dramatically to what I can actually accomplish. But the watch doesn't know why and it keeps telling me to get moving, which I find annoying and discouraging. But also, I can't help but feel like the watch should be able to actually help me rest and recover. Like, if I could tell the watch that I'm sick, it could replace some of the normal reminders with actually helpful reminders to drink water or avoid too much activity when it senses I'm doing too much. It could also be doing things like helping me keep track of symptoms and medication. It could also put a hiatus on overall goal tracking. Like, I have some 800 days of perfect rings which is a streak I'm not about to give up because I got sick for a few days; the watch should stop counting goals on sick days and let you maintain your streak. This would also have the added benefit of keeping data about illnesses, how often they happen, how long they lasted, etc. I love the Apple watch so much during normal life, but it tanks hard when you get sick, and if you're committed to getting the benefit out of the watch, getting sick throws the whole thing off, and that sucks. What do you think? Do you think you'd like a 'sick mode' for the Apple Watch? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 29 Feb 2020 05:23 AM PST I shoot many videos and often want to save a cool moment as a photo to my photo library. Or share with friends or post on Instagram. I used to take screenshots but was never happy with them since they are low resolution and don't carry any metadata. Basically, I was tired of this. So I made Frame Grabber (App Store Link) to extract full-resolution frames from videos and Live Photos. It does its job quickly and is dead-simple to use. The app is completely free and you don't need to unlock anything. Privacy is important to me so no ads either, no analytics, just app. If you're interested in the source code, check it out here. It's my first app and I learned a ton making it! I open-sourced it so other beginners can hopefully learn something from it. Any feedback about app or code is highly appreciated! :) Links: App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/frame-grabber/id1434703541 Source Code: https://github.com/arthurhammer/FrameGrabber [link] [comments]  | ||

| I made an open-source macOS menu bar utility for toggling dark mode Posted: 29 Feb 2020 09:06 AM PST Just wanted to share a little macOS utility app that I put together. It adds a button to the menu bar that toggles dark mode when clicked. The app is free to download and open source. [link] [comments]  | ||

| I created a free app that aims to make good habits stick by using a non zero day approach Posted: 29 Feb 2020 02:34 PM PST Hi! I was a lurker on r/NonZeroDay for a long time, and I always struggled to build good habits that last. A year ago I started to create a calendar view in google spreadsheets, printed it and placed it in front of my desk. Each day from a month had a corresponding cell in which I wrote a value for the habit that I want to make it stick. I had multiple 'tables' with various metrics, like toothbrushes, pages read, etc. This really helped me visually because I really wanted to fill each day with a value, and to see it improved. Then I started to add some goals, like walking at least 8k steps daily, or eating less than 2000 cal. I wanted to have these calendars with me all the time, even if I'm on a trip or visiting family, and to track more easily values that are already tracked by my phone or my watch. So I build an iOS app, MetriCal and replaced my files. I don't see the calendars all the time but I get notifications and have some stats on it, it is able to auto track values that are synced with Apple Health app, and can track basically anything I want. I started with just a few metrics, and now I have around ten that I can track daily, some of them automatically (health stuff), and some manually. I really recommend this app, because it really helped me be productive, and not just because I build it (iOS development is a hobby of mine, but hopefully I can live from it one day, and I've used a non zero day approach to make me work at least 1h every day on it). Check it here: https://apps.apple.com/app/metrical/id1492356525 Hope you will enjoy it! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Posted: 29 Feb 2020 06:09 AM PST Hey everyone, I make app called Shortcutify which makes third-party services, such as Spotify, Google Maps and Airtable available in Shortcuts. You can pre-order it for free now and will be released on March 2nd. [link] [comments]  | ||
| "Ace Maverick" - AAA helicopter action for iOS... or..what do you guys think? Posted: 29 Feb 2020 07:43 AM PST A few years ago... I had this reasonably stupid idea to try to make an AAA game for iOS on my own, I was stubborn enough to get through it and actually release the game. In the end, I was honoured to get featured by Apple and that generated some sales although it never really made much in terms of money, paid games seemed to be a hard sell... =O So I made it free with ads now, what your impression of the game in this day and age? Feel free to have a go if you got some time to kill and take out the chopper for a spin! :) Here is the link: http://appstore.com/acemaverick Happy Flying & Shooting, Stefan [link] [comments]  | ||
