True. And with Compose it’s much easier to develop for different screen sizes.

Redesign the cluttered details page in Compose Multiplatform

Hm, maybe I miss some features like performance, messaging, app check and ab testing.

Do you have good alternatives?

Especially as a small developer.

Voted. Thanks!

Support Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) in the SDKs KMP is now stable and more libraries are being added to KMP ecosystem. There is a big opportunity for Firebase to be in Multiplatform and support developers adopting this tech.

Official KMP support for Firebase is requested a lot whenever we talk to developers. If you want to let the team at Google know, please vote for and add a comment on this issue explaining why you want to see this:

If they could provide same features like iPad OS.

Google confirms it's 'combining' Chrome OS and Android into a single platform We first heard back in November that Google could merge Chrome OS into Android. Now, an executive has publicly confirmed plans for a merger.

Just tried new Kotlin/Native smallBinary option in Kotlin 2.2.20-Beta1.in project here (github.com/joreilly/Con...) and seeing over 20% reduction in size when building release version 🚀

btw remember to set following!
kotlin.native.binary.smallBinary=true

My app page on the Google Play Store has been updated! 🥳

250 reviews and ranked in the 7th position for subscription keywords.

I have Claude for development, but I would like to switch to GPT Codex.

My biggest mistake was buying a yearly subscription to an AI model.

ReSubs - Subscription Manager for iOS & Android Take control of your recurring expenses with ReSubs. Track, manage, and optimize all your subscriptions in one place. Get smart insights, save money, and never miss a renewal.

Build the entire website with Cursor - no own code written!

💯I quit my job but I still work on projects.

You can't search by geust actors in the app. You can check for one specific actor / person all TV shows and movies.

Nice tooling, this looks very convenient!

The current ReSubs icon is too minimalistic and doesn't visualize the subscription well enough. Also, the color is too serious.

I will change the icon to a wallet with a positive blue background color.

WOAH! 🎉🥳 This is the first time I have developed and released an iOS application.

As an Android developer, I was never motivated to jump into the iOS ecosystem and build something. However, covering at least both mobile platforms is essential to grow a product.

Thank you, Scooty!

I only use a main branch, no tests, and release manually on the store for my apps. It's much faster than with a CI. Both systems are straightforward to release.

In companies, I use GH Actions with Fastlane most of the time to release the release branch.

What are your thoughts on the new Google Material 3 Expressive?

Google has announced the new Material 3 Expressive, designed to express the emotion of the user.

Yes, I use the compose-cupertino, but not everywhere. There needs to be more adjustments (buttons, dropdown menu, sections etc.).
