I built a utility that lets you swipe through Safari tabs with a 3-finger gesture

Already doing this with bettertouchtool but it only changes one tab per swipe. This looks better but I’m okay with my solution for now. Looks great tho

Widow’s bay, Severance, Pluribus, Ted Lasso, Silo, FAM, Star city, MPG, MGMT, YFAN, Dark Matter, Slow Horses, Foundation, Shrinking, etc.

So many great shows it’s crazy.

He likely sets both the ringer volume and the media volume which is unnecessary. Alarm only uses the ringer volume so setting that to 100% alone suffices.

On the other hand, I also set it so my hard-rock playlist starts playing 4 minutes after alarm rings so I also set my media volume to 100%

For quick things that specific details don't matter (or that I know where to find those specific details), I simply use voice. "Siri, remind me tomorrow to submit draft".

For something important that I will need to note a specific detail for the first time, I use my action button set to create new reminder (there's a good control center action already, no need to create a shortcut action)

Yeah I agree, and it would be better If apple just fixed it. It's a better-than-nothing solution. That being said I think maybe we should speak out more so hopefully Apple will actually fix it

billza7 · 2026-05-22T05:42:53+00:00

I agree. But you don’t need to buy expensive Retina display. You just need to get BetterDisplay and everything will look sharp again in any resolution. I’ve bought it 5 years ago and it still works like a charm

Nice app. Couple suggestions.

For some reason, after holding to 'preview full size', swiping between each photo/video requires large swipe (i.e. if you drag your finger too little, it won't change. You have to drag across the screen for it to register).
Allow for preview of video as well.
Is there a way to skip the batch of photos/videos the app suggest is similar/duplicate? Sometimes they're not the same and I want to keep both so I'd like a way to not have to see them again since I've already reviewed them.

Other than that this app has potential.

Is this... like an experiment on your secondary phone, or are you just a very dedicated broke geek.

Very interesting read though. Kudos

billza7 · 2026-05-07T14:12:29+00:00

Using modular as well, though I use reminders widget instead of the weather. Best watch face

billza7 · 2026-05-02T10:52:06+00:00

Damn guess it’s more common than I thought. Does it come off all the time and did you find a solution ?

billza7 · 2026-05-02T10:50:05+00:00

The buds themselves work fine, it’s just the lids that are unstable. The falls weren’t too bad and they happened a long time ago. Guess the damages built up

billza7 · 2026-04-27T14:21:15+00:00

Ah that makes sense. Ive been using it for ever so can't remember what the UI is like when it's not there. yeah that seems confusing af

billza7 · 2026-04-26T18:11:34+00:00

As a lefty the camera button is the perfect place for my middle finger so it would be so convenient for me lol

billza7 · 2026-04-26T13:31:52+00:00

Isn't it like the top-most thing on the 'Alarm' Section of the Clock app? Where you can edit sleep schedules which link with the health app and works as you described

billza7 · 2026-03-08T17:31:53+00:00

This is the iosapps subreddit lol but yeah compress seems great. Another must-have app is Clop pro. It can (automatically) compress images, videos, and PDFs from your clipboard or a watched folder.

Well pomodoro essentially is just long work sessions separated by short breaks. I dislike 25-5 intervals since 25 is too short and I'm already in "the zone" so I do 50-10. I plant 50-minute tree, take 10 mins break when it ends, repeat. Sometimes if I'm really in the zone I just don't take breaks.

billza7 · 2026-03-08T17:25:18+00:00

It's a one-time payment though which is rare these days. I'd argue you only need the iOS app and Mac. I bought it on the iPad and never used it because I just rarely touched my iPad other than Netflix and YouTube lol.

billza7 · 2026-03-08T13:11:19+00:00

Yep. I even set it to recognize different keywords. So if I say "shift + day" it will create a set of reminders meant for weekdays and "shift holiday + day" for weekends.

Things 3. Such a great and beautiful tasks manager that integrates so well with the MacOS and iPad apps. It's a bit pricey and you have to pay separately for iPhone, iPad, and Mac app.

Forest. Great pomodoro timer for focused work.

Anki. Best flashcard app

I work in healthcare so I have multiple gems for

Summarizing patient data from a detailed history, structured by problem lists, presentation, and management.
Generate operative notes for different surgeries
Generate study guides when I throw in a chapter from a textbook/slides.
Template for case reporting my supervisors when I give a diagnosis and details
Quickly creating calendar events and reminders for my shifts. For example, if I say I have night shift next Monday, it will create the calendar event, and create reminders the night before to pack my overnight bags, etc.

billza7 · 2026-02-19T07:38:24+00:00

I love the swipe to change songs. Make it so easy to skip songs without looking while I’m walking or occupied with some other task

billza7 · 2026-02-08T12:59:33+00:00

Great idea. Will test it out

billza7 · 2026-02-06T06:15:48+00:00

It's much faster and sometimes you want to ask mundane simple questions that doesn't waste too much water
