With Xcode 27 I've been unable to try the new agent functionality because it says Codex isn't installed (Which is true. I use Claude). I finally solved this and I did it by going into Xcode 26. In a new conversation it gives you a drop down to select the agent. I was able to select Claude there.

After a few days with the Kinesis mWave I can honestly say that I'm thrilled with it. Huge + : optional wired connection, standard ctrl/opt/cmd keys, more comfy wrist pad, better key feel (subjective). Minor - : Volume keys moved (can be remapped). Delete key kind hard for me to reach.

Drew and I have been busy releasing another episode of Drew and Dan in the Morning. Episode 8! We're also playing around with some new album art for the podcast, here's one concept. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/d...

Oooh so the rumors were true.

I was tricked by @benfreiband.bsky.social and @swifteves.bsky.social into not trying a Waymo at WWDC. That's not going to happen at @swiftsonicconf.bsky.social in November!

Mine was this crazy breakfast. Not only was it the first time that Bluesky power user @mattheaney23.bsky.social would speak to me, but it was also hilarious seeing him and @charliemchapman.com discover what a "breakfast pizza" was.

What's your favorite Deep Dish Swift memory? Part ticket-sales trap, sure. But honestly, I just love hearing them 🍕

My Kinesis mWave keyboard I ordered to replace my broken Logitech Ergo K860 finally arrives tomorrow. It was so hard for me to get used to an ergonomic keyboard at first and now the magic keyboard feels odd.

One day voice dictation will understand that I would never under any circumstance mention U2.

I’m having to make several UI changes to support German. Who would’ve ever predicted that?

I've had one bad thing after another happen to me in the last year but I finally have an indication that things are turning around. I just found a $1 certificate towards admission to the Catwoman movie.

I'm really pleased with today's update to What's My Set. I always want to make things that are silly AND useful. Today I'm adding rest timer themes. A little silliness before your next set.

Some big personal news The second edition of my book, Developing Inclusive Mobile Apps, is now available! It’s been completely updated with SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose, WCAG 2.2, new features, the EEA, and the latest research into building accessible mobile apps. link.springer.com/book/10.1007...

@danielsaidi.bsky.social This made me do a double take!

@cabel.panic.com Cabel you probably already know this, but Playdate spotting. One of the guys that maintains Big Ben uses a Playdate to help him. Nat Geo show called Best of the World with Antonin Porowski.

This has been the strangest beta summer for me. I launched a new app during it and had a list of improvements I've been making, none of which need anything new that is in iOS 27.

15 years ago I was lucky enough to see Sade live. It was the most I had ever paid for a concert so I could get great seats. Still one of my all time favorite concerts and someone that I never though I would get to see perform. She hasn't toured since!

My Logitech ergo keyboard has decided that it enjoys losing connectivity often. I'm researching alternatives and so far this is the top candidate. Any others I should look at? kinesis-ergo.com/keyboards/mw...

Tom's Guide recommends using the walkie talkie feature on your Apple Watch. Who wants to tell them? 😬 www.tomsguide.com/wellness/sma...

I got so much more out of my Apple Watch after turning on these 5 features

From a hidden web browser to a stealth camera shutter, these underrated Apple Watch features will change how you use your wearable.

Forget me being excited about Coin Drop being back. Silly me thinking that paying to remove ads meant that I had unlocked the full game. Here I can't keep playing unless I buy more lives or wait a certain amount of time. 🤮

I was feeling super nostalgic for old iOS games that I can't play any more. Decided on a whim to search for some and my first attempt got a hit. Coin Drop got relaunched. 🤯 Love seeing the ancient iPhone in the tutorial.

Today's 1.5 update adds much better landscape support and adds French as a language. The Apple Watch and smallest iPhones also get better support for accessibility text sizes.

During WWDC I got some great design feedback that What's My Set wasn't using the available space well in landscape mode. Addressing that now!

You've still got to be so careful when dealing with IAP in your app. My app passed review and is in a "pending developer release" state. It would be so easy to hit that release button but upon closer inspection the IAP is still "in review".

This blog post is from 2019 and I remember it had a huge impact on me. I still do this today!

Replacing Bool parameters with two-case enums turns cryptic calls like stopAnimation(false) into self-documenting code like stopAnimation(.performingFinalActions). It's a small change that makes a surprising difference to readability. www.hackingwithswift.com/articles/172...

TIL that your Apple Watch won't unlock your Mac if a sleep focus is active.

Sanity-saving use of AI: Have it resize the screenshots for reviewers that App Store Connect requires you to attach so that they meet whatever criteria are needed. No more rejected image uploads for confusing reasons.
