My first iOS app was a button that played a flushing sound. I was trying to replicate the device used by women in Japanese restrooms to mask their, um, noises.

My first iOS app was a button that played a flushing sound. I was trying to replicate the device used by women in Japanese restrooms to mask their, um, noises. Apple rejected it as being too simple and I didn't care to expand it to make it past gatekeepers at that point so it never got to the App Store.

Similarly I made the best bubble emulation app on iOS maybe 8 or 10 years ago. I was so happy with it, to some extent I wish I didn't delete the source code. But it only took me one inspired Saturday to make. Unfortunately it sold no copies because nobody needs a bubble emulator that emulates a Windows 95 era screensaver but with touch capabilities. They were such pretty bubbles though...

  I'll just make it with JS. Can't be that hard.

      Oh man I forgot that I made this to emulate the old Windows screensaver. Now I have to make this a screensaver you can embed into a webpage brb
