Do an experiment: pick one category of apps, whatever category, and look at the top 10-20 apps in that category. Half of them will have misleading data disclosure (as in, they say they don't gather user data or don't track users,

The App Store is full of scam, misleading, data stealing apps. A couple of weeks ago I reported some apps to Apple and instead of investigating they asked me to provide screenshots, exact steps to reproduce etc. After I pay $99 for the su

I'm working on adding Siri intents - something like activating Siri and saying "Ask AKME ..." and AKME would return to answer to Siri, which would read it out loud - but I don't have an ETA yet.

I might be in the minority here (though, reading the comments, it seems others have the same opinion), but I find Swift to be a step back compared to Objective-C. I really like the verbosity of Objective-C - this makes the code more readabl

I feel you! When I complained a couple of weeks ago about a high-profile chat app, that is "free" and had no business model, I got downvoted. We like to point the finger at facebook, but we turn around and are happy to use other &

I vaguely remember a TNG* episode in which humans encounter an alien race that found our language too ...inaccurate, and spent a lot of time going over each word and sentence, to precisely define its meaning. * Was it TNG or am I dreaming?

These apps do "a bit" more than violate Apple's design guidelines. For example, one of the apps from the article claims to use 'GPT-4' and they actually do call the OpenAI API, but use the GPT-3.5 model. Another app

Please don't spread more FUD, no-one is using OpenAI's GPT in the military. Is GPT perfect? Hell, no? Does it have biases? F*c yeah, the same ones of the humans that programmed it.
