Here are the most important facts I learned through #ShipATon and #BuildInPublic:

Through #BuildInPublic, some users here helped me find the vision for the app. In principle, the idea was defined online with the input of others. 🤯

I really appreciate that. 🙏 (1/3)

The #ShipATon competition has officially ended, and it has been a long journey for me personally. 🤯 I gained a lot of experience and new followers. 🙂 This was my first hackathon, and I would definitely love to attend again! :-) I wish all the participants good luck and give respect to everyone for the amazing new apps submitted to the App Store through this event. 🚀

All #ShipATon participants get an extra day. 🥳 But unfortunately I won't be able to release 1.0.4 in time. 😔 I would need a lot more time for that for what I have planned. Anyway, I don't want to complain here. It's just a fact that I want to share. 🙂 Version 1.0.4 contains the fundamental basis for storing data in iCloud. Relatively elementary functionality for the #foosballVision (Oh a potential new hashtag for the journey? 🤯 🤪)

Now all that's left to do is create the recommended video for #ShipATon. Wow! What a ride. I'll report my learnings in detail in various toots, which I also wrote down in the application form for the hackathon. Still under the usual hashtags. Stay tuned! 🤗

#BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

The last update that can probably go through Apple Review before the #ShipATon deadline. After that the app will be submitted on #DevPost 🙂 Unfortunately we just missed build number "42" 😄

Wish me luck 🙂🍀❤️

#BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

The next update of @FoosballApp also includes the data basis for playing multiple sets in one game. Basically with a first and second half. However, this is not yet offered in terms of UI. This way I can prepare myself for the future feature and won't have to migrate the model in any way later.

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Yesterday was the first day that I generated 0 downloads with @FoosballApp. 🙄 Marketing is underestimated. The next update will add the German language with German keywords for the German market. 🇩🇪

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev, #Marketing

The detail view of a player contains at least one chart. The number of games won and lost in a pie chart. I'm currently focusing more on the basic functionality, which is also expected. Alerts to confirm certain decisions. Translate the app into German, as the German market is relatively large.

The chart is also available for free users. I will add more statistics for Pro users later. -> Update

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Unfortunately I didn't manage to submit the planned version 1.0.3 which only contains code cleanups. Therefore version 1.0.3 will be the version with the iOS 18 changes and bug fixes. It will be uploaded directly on Monday.

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Saturday morning ☀️, fresh coffee ☕️, the last #ShipATon days are coming to an end, and I still have a lot of work to do. No matter what! I really enjoyed this online hackathon and had a lot of fun. 🤩 I learned a lot in a short time. Now, let's finish this up and tackle the last topics. I'll be back later with the profile overview and player statistics! 🙋🏻‍♂️🥳

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Sometimes it really helps to look at other apps to solve the own problems. Today I downloaded Freeletics, which has a calendar view very similar to #Foosball. They have solved the date with the month display very elegantly, which I have now adopted. I've had the UX problem for a few days now and haven't found a solution yet until now.

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Since the launch of @FoosballApp I have made exactly $0 🤑. Those are the bare facts. But I haven't really run any marketing strategy yet and haven't played around with keywords much. The app isn't even translated. I wanted to launch as soon as possible and all of that is still to come.

So far, the app actually only knows a few of my followers who read this message + my 8 #Foosball friends since yesterday. 🤷‍♂️

#Shipaton, #BuildInPublic, #ShipFoosball

This evening I was able to test @Foosball live in a real environment and it works really well. The only problem is that the shuffle algorithm doesn't rotate properly when there are multiples of 4 participants (there were 8 of us this evening). This means that the same teams always end up competing against each other in a group. You could still help things out manually using the lock function, but that was noticeable. Otherwise the feedback was good! 😊

#Shipaton, #BuildInPublic, #ShipFoosball

There will also be new screenshots in the AppStore. I will use Swift Charts for the charts. You get so much for free and it works brilliantly. I will submit the new version directly on Monday and just hope that it is reviewed by September 19th. (2/2)

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Here is the plan until the #ShipATon deadline.
I will clean up the code by Friday, not touch any new features, just clean up and fix bugs (version 1.0.3). I will use the weekend to create player statistics on the player page. One of the "Coming Soon" Pro features will be implemented here. (version 1.0.4) (1/2)

#BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Tonight I'm going to meet up again to play table football. 8 people have agreed to come tonight. It's the perfect opportunity to test @FoosballApp properly again.

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev, #Stresstest

Version 1.0.2 of @FoosballApp is in the AppStore. 🚀 If I had to submit the current version to #ShipATon, I would be happy. Everything else that comes is a bonus for me. I will now clean up my code to make room for new features. I think I will use the weekend to create the player profiles and their statistics. I will then submit it directly to Apple on Monday.

(I noticed a few minor bugs that I will address during the code cleanup).

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Damn 🙄, I wanted to upload the next version of @FoosballApp with Xcode 16 RC, but I completely forgot that you also need sequoia for that, which won't be released until September 16th. I don't want to install the beta on my machine. It's going to be really tight with the #ShipATon deadline. I'll probably download Xcode 15 again, which of course I uninstalled immediately after the RC release :D Stupid me 🤡

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

I improved the UX today and am pretty happy with the result.
TIL: UX is at least as important as UI. It just feels more right in terms of operation. (1/2)

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

There are only 10 days left until the #ShipATon deadline. Tonight I'm making a priority list of @FoosballApp tasks that I want to tackle in the final stages. However, I won't be developing any more features, but will be improving what I have so far. Version 1.0.2 will probably be the version that will be submitted to #Apple with Xcode 16 after today's #AppleEvent.

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

Good Morning! 🙂

the version 1.0.1 of @FoosballApp is currently in review. The update is very important because it includes the @revenuecat paywall. When that goes live, I can join #ShipATon and can focus on improving the app until the hackathon deadline. Wish me luck 🍀🙂

#BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

v 1.0.2 Improvements of @FoosballApp. I personally like the UI more. But I still don't think this will be the final version until the #ShipATon deadline.

#BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

This will certainly make it easier for users not to mix up the days.

Is there anything I can improve here?

#ShipATon, #BuildInPublic, #Foosball, #ShipFoosball, #iosDev

A quick update from me. I'm still waiting for the review from Apple. So far the build is still waiting in the queue 🙂

In the meantime I'm working on version 1.0.2. This includes a simpler UX for selecting the game days 🙂
