I’ve spent the last few months rebuilding my app from the ground up, applying everything I’ve learned since 2020. It’s now fully native in SwiftUI. If you’re an organized car owner, I’d value your feedback on the new foundation.
I'm using Google Antigravity today to write tests and I've been seeing this blocker a lot: 'Our servers are experiencing high traffic right now, please try again in a minute.' #FlutterDev #VibeCoding
Coming soon...
I see that App Store Connect added an Analytics tab to the app tabs. From Apple: You can now access over 100 new metrics, analyze payer and subscription data, leverage improved filter capabilities, and compare your performance against new monetization benchmarks. #FlutterDev #iOS
But you read my reply so it works out.
I’m most excited about the seamless iCloud integration and the realtime collaboration features.
The #1 auto care app on the App Store, Auto Care Kit, will be reimagined and released as Auto Care Plus. apps.apple.com/us/app/auto-... #Swift #SwiftUI #iOS #IndieDev
Having any issues with TestFlight today, especially with users assigned to a build being removed?
Investigating a weird TestFlight bug: System-level removal of all users from groups using "Automatic for Xcode Builds." Admin accounts included. If you're missing your builds for Car IQ Pay, this is why! #MobileDev #TestFlight #FlutterDev

All of my language localizations are now performed by an AI agent. It extracts strings from the code and updates my .arb files for each language, runs `flutter gen-l10n`, and updates the code by replacing the strings with code. It does an amazing job. #FlutterDev #Flutter
I did not realize that Gemini 3 could max out. No capacity available for model gemini-3-flash-agent on the server MODEL_CAPACITY_EXHAUSTED HTTP 503 Service Unavailable #FlutterDev
I don't understand how an Android app can compile, build, link, and run, and then while calling a method in Kotlin, it crashes due to java.lang.NoSuchMethodError. #FlutterDev
Restarting Android Studio does the trick. #FlutterDev
What do you use to determine CoreData is syncing with iCloud?
In TestFlight, why can't I add details to What to Test? for a build before it finishes processing. Since processing takes so long, I would like to add my testing details immediately, and have it ready when processing completes. This would speed up my TF releases.
I saw this in my inbox this morning. Have not heard the mention of the Ada programming language in many years. "Must have C++ or Ada programming language experience"
Feel your pain.

For most of it, yes, it would just be easier. But that is now. Soon, I expect the final stage of SDD to catch up to the earlier stages.
It's not that the workflow is missing, its that the components of that workflow are not going to deliver the high quality results needed to satisfy the workflow.
I've submitted 4 different apps to the App Store and Play Store for review over the past 3 days. All iOS apps have been approved and released. All Android apps are still in review. #FlutterDev #Android #iOS
BTW, this is for mobile app development. I have not experienced 100% confidence in any full coverage UI testing tool. Not a knock on existing tools but a blocker for full agentic development. Agentic planning and coding are solid, but QA is not, yet.
Comparing that to feature development where I’ve successfully been able to get an agent to generate the correct code in one pass.
Looking at testing from the perspective of complete hands-free, except for the agent, I’ve struggled to find any of the popular models to generate a full set of test for a feature without a human in the loop and iterative coding.
The most difficult step right now in agentic SDD is the final QA step where valid unit testing, widget UI testing, and UI integration takes place. For Flutter testing I don't know of any model that is decent and reliable. This makes agentic SDD incomplete. #FlutterDev #MobileAppDev
Modern mobile dev is shifting to Spec-Driven Development (SDD): you define high-level intent, and AI agents build the architecture, documentation, and code. Both iOS and Android apps are implemented natively and simultaneously from a single source of truth. No need for Flutter and React Native.

I am so tired of my SVG files from Figma not rendering in my Flutter app due to the flutter_svg package. Seems like Flutter should have a rock solid SVG display by now. #Flutter #FlutterDev
I’m frustrated that I can’t keep my AI agents busy enough. Anyone else feel that way?
26.3 RC has been out for a while, but something is holding up the release. I bet it’s legal related to AI.
Not sure. I don’t use flutter pub add 😎because I like to order my packages and versions a specific way.
I use VS code with the Flutter extension, and after adding a new package name to a pubspec file, and saving it, it automatically runs futter pub get to resolve the dependencies.
I just realized that the Bluesky web app does not show tooltips on hover for small icon buttons. Isn't that standard for web apps these days? Without tooltips it is difficult to know what some of these icon buttons actually do.
I think I should name my AI agents, and I feel obligated to use sci-fi like names like Argon and Trillage. #FlutterDev
Not normal

Twitter had it back in 2016 and probably before that. See this article. sproutsocial.com/insights/twe...
I know that other social networks provide multiple different clients which means this issue is not new and has been solved many times.
I realize this would be a difficult problem to solve, but at least it could be solved in the Bluesky app itself.
Does anyone know when Bluesky will start showing Post View Metrics to help determine how much a post was seen? #Bluesky #atproto
At this point I am doing well with 2 simultaneous AI coding agents. Striving to get to 3. #Flutter #FlutterDev

I am in San Francisco this morning and there was an earthquake, 4.2. I captured the sound at the end of this video. It sounds like a door opening.
My son’s date is Feb 6th to get power restored and they have a show on Feb 4th and can’t rehearse. They’ve moved from a downtown hotel to an Airbnb and to another Airbnb. Hope you get power soon.
Heading for San Francisco for a week of meetings and warm weather.

I love this quote that I made up: You may be meeting with someone important, but it may not be important. #larryism
Mostly, but only with the latest models.
I’m mostly switching from one free tool to another.
One app, one focus, one income stream to manage, one set of analytics, one release strategy and pipeline, one marketing plan, and one app to think about while in the shower.
How do we know that Bluesky is getting any usage if it doesn’t have any view counts? Even LinkedIn shows view counts. #bluesky
For unit test coverage where 49 out of 50 lines are covered, is that adequate for your unit test needs?

Yesterday using Antigravity from Google I created a macOS app using the Gemini 3 Pro model. It was awesome. Today I created the same app using Antigravity for Flutter. Also awesome. We live in amazing times. This app uses Ollama to analyze log files. @ollama.cloud #swift #flutter
I'm tired of seeing this Swift compiler issue while writing SwiftUI code in Xcode. It is so common for the compiler to just give up and stop reporting errors: The compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time; try breaking up the expression into distinct sub-expressions #swift
The only great thing about this Verizon outage and no SMS is that I don’t get any more SMS spam.
It’s very annoying that a Swift app on iOS can’t perform a hot reload like Flutter.
This Verizon Wireless outage is no joke.
Working on Apple Wallet integration from our iOS app to add our credit card to the wallet. Luckily iOS handles most of this but as a mobile developer I am just orchestrating the passing of data back and forth between our backend and the wallet.

When using SwiftUI in Xcode 26.1 I frequently run into this compiler issue. I can't even send this to Apple because I don't have a small repro case for it: The compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time; try breaking up the expression into distinct sub-expressions #SwiftUI
