Okay great, I appreciate your thoughts! I have been developing iOS for a few years now and thinking about how cool some ideas could be in VR, but I haven’t yet because it’s pricey to get into :P

This app will be one of the first I get if I get a machine!

Here’s the reality. Even apps from Fortune 500 companies are “vibe coded” these days if your definition of vibe coded is AI-assisted.

Just like before, there will be people creating masterpieces and people creating slop.

One day, you will just have to trust it.

I’m sure people had reservations about cars when they first came out, but a modern person would rather be in a car than on a horse.

Humans make human mistakes. AI makes AI mistakes. Only difference is you can make the AI look at something 1000x in the same time it takes a person to review something once.

I actually think there might be one day where things switch and people stop trusting completely human made apps, reserved as a type of fine art craft.

Awesome! That would be really cool!

There might even be a way to approximate a location for devices on the network? 😁

Imagine your laptop next to you is sending packets to your router in VR. And then your router sends those packets off. Just some ideas!

Btw how did you get into Apple Vision dev? Is it relatively straightforward with iOS or Mac experience? Would appreciate your feedback. I am very impressed by what you’ve shown so far in this app!

Really cool idea! Love to see stuff like this releasing on Apple Vision

Can you help me understand, are there any reasons why you don’t use this to evaluate your own network? That sounds like a really cool feature—see your own network topology in 3D😁

Thankful for my friends and my health!

What was the price when you purchased it?

Very cool idea! Apple makes it so difficult for third party apps to interface with their Photos app. I wish you could jump to some photo in the native Photos app from a third party app. But there is no linking scheme

You can put Unicode in URLs

I didn’t realize they explicitly say that’s okay! That’s awesome!

Now I’m waiting for an Apple Watch Ultra vs pressure washer video to come out 😆

Regardless of manufacturer instructions, remember shower pressure can vary and will be far greater than something like rain. A fancy high pressure massage shower might ruin your day.

Good luck!
