A feature I came up with is this concept of "Smart Badges". Here, there are two primary actions:
A pass from the 1 to a 3, and a shot.
Coaches typically will add notes to plays saying "1 passes to 3, 3 shoots" - so this kind of automates it.
Today I shipped one of the most challenging features I've ever worked on: a frame based play designer with an inline timeline scrubber.

🚨 Testers wanted 🚨
I have a huge update to Elite Hoops coming up. It adds user accounts, user sign up, and syncing data. Tons under the hood.
I'd love a hand testing the sign in/up flow:

My first, true "AI is changing my own personal life, work, etc" post. In short, I think it's a fantastic time to build stuff:

"Typically, you can start to pull out 2-3 groups of countries when you look at them all by conversion rate.Then create tiers in Superwall and create new products in ASC for each tier to run price tests against."

Here's what Nick said:
"I optimize localized price testing for test efficiency as much as maximizing revenue.I usually break down markets into 2-3 tiers, usually based on average conversion rate."

Oh I already requested it haha, so glad they added that.
When I was but a young lil' pup, these reviews used to *kill* me.
But eventually, you become a hardened warrior, undeterred by reviews complaining about charging for your work, or not agreeing with design decisions you made.
Keep on rollin' friends, these reviews happen to all of us 🍻
I'm crossposting this, so if you are interested, please email me at jordan@swiftjectivec.com
- My Apple Search Ads weren't enough to grow it, whereas with Elite Hoops, they were. Maybe PMF just isn't there?
Misc:
- Native, all Swift+SwiftUI. No backend.
- RevenueCat and Superwall integrated.
Metrics + App Store Link: verified.revenuecat.com/elitefootba...
- Ive turned off all Apple Search Ads for it.
Pros:
- Solid base, and added practice planner that grew Elite Hoops recently.
- Same recordable whiteboard Elite Hoops has.
- Recently localized.
Cons:
- Numbers are small.
- I don't know soccer coaches, is what I built not as useful to them?
🚨 I'm looking to sell my soccer app, Elite Football Club.
It's like Elite Hoops, but for soccer (or football, depending on where you live 😉).
Reasons:
- I just haven't been able to grow it.
- But I also haven't really tried, I learned I dont care about soccer.
The pitfall with agents is not knowing what you don't know. In iOS, I can spot mistakes early. I'm trying to learn enough to do the same in web dev.
Cheers 🍻

Agents are amazing at coding now, no surprise there. One way to use them that I've found valuable is as a tutor, relating new tech stacks to me using familiar parallels from SwiftUI and iOS development.

New year, so this is the only time Alyx will show that I’ve only had two shots of espresso ☕️
Happy New Years everyone!
“Turn [those ads] off right now – they're burning money” – Jordan's marketing agency
For this year's Christmas Special, I talked with indie app dev @jordanmorgan10.bsky.social about ads and creative fatigue, seasonality, and finding market fit even without huge marketing budgets.
