Yesterday some great stuff were announced during the Apple Keynote. I’m not going to lie; I’m super excited about Mario coming to iOS and the next iPhone. I’ve always been a bit meh when it comes to the watch, but the announcement about the Nike+ new app made me think about something I could quickly put together.

The concept is super simple:

you enter an activity optionally, you change the color of said activity that’s it, you can now share your image

I’ve already used the app to tease a bunch of people, and it’s been fun, even if it’s still rough around the edges. For example, I realized today that my decision of taking a snapshot of the UIStackView containing the two labels and the textField was great until I added a share button. Then again, it was 11 PM.

It’s been a while since I did something this useless but it’s refreshing. I’ve been working on a couple of tools lately, including a framework to cache items locally I’m going to use in my next app (more on those later). The goal with “Are We” is to experiment and write about topics that I found absorbing: custom keyboards, rich notifications on iOS 10…

In the meantime, the iOS application is available on Github under the MIT License. Feel free to give it a try!
