WTF?!
I really did not expect that.
It was my first time participating, I am 16 and my project was not that special.
But anyway, that’s way better than any grade!!!
#swiftstudentchallenge
This looks much better!
MemoKit should have been available for pre-order for two days now, but Apples App Review will not 🤷♂️
The fight over an in-app purchase continues...

The last 30 hours have been so crazy! 🤯

So it has been 7 days since the release of my first iOS app

Gonna summarize it a bit in a longer post now (the only reason why I bought premium xD) ✍️

Solved!
Now, I am 99% sure, that all
#swiftstudentchallenge
winners this year will receive AirPods Max Gen. 2, which will be revealed at the
#AppleEvent
, as it also fits perfectly with the "in a few weeks" statement 😆
Or, what do you think?
So it has been 10 days since the release of my second app

It was an exciting week.

What if..
You could finally use more of your memorizing power for your most important moments in life?
Sometimes we remember certain events of our life when we hear a specific track or sound.
That's what
@memokit_app
will be for, my
#swiftstudentchallenge
submission 2024! 🥳…
Memories deserve to be more than just words!

You can track your most important memories and relive them with the songs you love. ✨
Feel free to share MemoKit to support this student project! 🙏

And that's it! I submitted my

A few days after launching my first iOS app on the AppStore, I reached another big milestone.
500 followers, wow 🤩!
Hopefully I can continue on the path I started last year!
#buildinpublic
#indiehackers
Just W.O.W. !!!
Thanks to yesterday's post I finally reached my ultimate goal!
1000 followers here on X Twitter 🥳
Crazy, this was one of the first goals I created in
@goalkit_app
and I never thought I would be able to reach this goal. Now I can check it off...
#buildinpublic
Taking a shot in the dark! 🎯
I'm looking for cool internship opportunities.
Ideally in roles related to iOS/SwiftUI development, but I would also love to explore marketing.
Still 17, but already SSC winner.
Thank you!

This was nearly a year ago. It’s unlikely that I am gonna win again, but 350 others will get very lucky and will be rewarded for their work! Good luck to everyone!🍀
I am so happy that this challenge exists, there is nothing similar from any other company… Or is it? At least I…

This year has been fantastic! Discovered the
#BuildingInPublic
community and delved into iOS development. Attended WWDC 23, had great conversations with awesome people and students, and even captured some cool moments 😉 Can’t wait to see what unfolds next year! 🚀
#YearInReview
A long and very personal post about MemoKit and especially why I started building it.
Also a little announcement 😊
First, how did I get the idea?
It all started last year when I was at WWDC23. Or to be more precise: The evening / day after. I was so happy to have had the…
Looks like we are getting the information much earlier than last year! Let the fun begin! 50 winners will be selected to attend WWDC 23

#SSC
This took so unbelievable long! 😭
Not nearly ready yet, but at least logging in and searching for songs finally works!
Will only work for Spotify Premium users though (Spotify's decision...)
#buildinpublic
#beta
The best onboarding? None
I decided to remove the entire onboarding from
@memokit_app
! You will be prompted to allow access to your AM library when you add your first memory
Much better in my opinion, what do you think?
#buildinpublic
I am trying to do something with my new App MemoKit, but for that it needs some reviews...🙃
Let's try smth!
Comment a link to your iOS App and I will write a review.
In return you do the same for
@memokit_app
🔁

#community
I just realized the
#SSC23
winner box may be the last one of its kind… 😭
We don’t know (exactly) what Apple will give us this year and how it will be packaged….
Any idea on what I could do with the box, so it does not collects dust in a corner? Certificate is already on the…
Last minute checks for tomorrows
@memokit_app
launch! 😅
My second launch this year, learned a lot from last time, let's see how it will work out and if MemoKit will be featured (as I requested early enough this time) 👀
If you haven't preordered yet, link below ⬇️…
So… What to do now 😅
I had many things I wanted to ship this week including MemoKit beta, GoalKit UP, Waitlist page, but now…
Motivation is gone 📉
#buildinpublic
And this is only the beginning, only english... 😭
Hopefully Apple Review is going to approve
@memokit_app
's build soon, so preorder can finally start 🚀
#buildinpublic
At least I would forget without reminders...
Finally, you can enable notifications to get reminders to enter your memories and relive them!
Coming with a new beta update later today 🚀
#buildinpublic
#beta
I've never mentioned this before, but I have another hobby ⬇️ After a 2+ year break (as you can see 😅), I'm planning to rebuild and downsize it.
Should I post the progress here?
What's the plan?
Remove two of the three parts, relocate and extend the third, and rebuild the car…
I have a question
WHO of the
#ssc
winners (not distinguished) will (try) to attend Dub Dub in person?
I was there last year and I would love to go again (AI stuff etc), but it costs a lot of money and I theoretically have school...
Need your help/opinions 😅
#buildinpublic
…
We are getting close, just got a reminder mail! Applications open next week, cant wait to see what all of you are building for
#swiftstudentchallenge
2024.
Maybe some of us will have the possibility to meet at DubDub this year
#buildinpublic
#ssc
Holy shit! There are so many crazy good
#swiftstudentchallenge
projects I‘ve already seen, so I am pretty sure I am not going to win again 😅
Crazy what ideas everyone has and the realization as well 😍
#buildinpublic
Nothing big, but super useful!
The newest version will be rolled out to all testers in the next few minutes. 🚀
Besides small bug fixes, the animations for reliving memories are much smoother and you can finally see your pictures in full size! 🖼️
The last beta batch will go out…
So i am working on a small new app, with just one purpose. Anyone who wants to try it out?
Hint: We all forget important passwort… 👀

Invitations will go out at the end of the week, after which no more testers will be added.

I guess I was wrong then 🙈
No Air Pods Max 2, it would’ve been to good to be true 😭
(Now besides my SSC23 gift - AirPods Pro 2 - this will be my only lightning device)
#swiftstudentchallenge
This is one of my personal goals in

What's crazy is that just based on these texts, the AI suggestions were sooo accurate to what this goal is about.

One week of holidays left, so plenty of time 😆
Btw, should I create a signup page? Kind of scared, never bought a domain etc... 😅
#buildinpublic
Yaaay!
After a really productive day, I tried smth others did months ago...
Successfully adding ChatGPT to
@goalkit_app
!
It isn't groundbreaking, but for me it feels so cool.
The trickiest part? Getting those free credits xD
Yes the UI Looks terrible rn 🫣

Paper beats iPad for sketching every time. Not sure why 🤷♂️
Below the last sketches for the biggest missing part in
@memokit_app

Hopefully I can release a first closed beta when submissions for

open!

Hopefully I can tell you about the idea next weekend. Would love to here what you think then!
If Some of you like it, I will quickly make a MVP ready!

Unlock a lifetime of memories with a small one-time investment!
I am not really happy yet... expecially not with the paywalls design, any cool ideas? 🤔
Also, what do you think would be a fair price for the one-time upgrade (beta testers get a big discount)?
