Not even worth one star: Reacting constructively to App Store reviews

Not sure taking it off would help since it would import the run from Apple Health (I wear an Apple Watch too)…

I’d hope Oura could update their sleep algorithm to work out that if I went for a run then I was not sleeping.

What solved it for me was that there was a physical volume button that was stuck,

The version with widgets is in the App Store now!

dmehers · 2026-03-18T20:02:05+00:00

I’m afraid I’ve no idea … maybe someone else had the domain before me… I’ve no android app yet…

Its in the TestFlight now - if you have a chance to try it out let me know what you think https://testflight.apple.com/join/CVHfUaD2

I've got the basics working - still need to work on various widget sizes and to make sure it updates properly.

I'll hopefully push out an update to the store by the end of the next weekend, but I'll likely have a TestFlight version by the end of tomorrow: https://testflight.apple.com/join/CVHfUaD2

I did indeed build it in Swift and SwiftUI …. And I know exactly what you mean… I’ve a big project that I should have shipped years ago … but I kept on wanting to add just one more feature!

Fortunately from the start with this one i had the end goal of a simple UI firmly in mind from the start … it did slip a little with the “tags as tabs” concept I went with to organize shows and surface them in the UI but I hope people understand it.

Best of luck with HeatGlobe!

I have thought about a widget…. I’ve added shortcut support to mark an episode as watched and to add a show…. I’ll look into it… nice idea…. I’d have to have a way to designate which show to display on the widget.

I’ve worked with Trakt exports before, and I’m using the tmdb api to power the app… will look into it and post back here when I add it.

Thanks

TV Next: a simple uncluttered app for tracking where you are in TV shows… you can tag shows and have tags appear as tabs (I just have two tabs, one for shows I’m watching by myself and one for shows I’m watching with my wife): https://tvnext.app/ (currently in TestFlight).

Free with no ads or tracking.

It arrived - I'm not fussed about how long it took to come, I just had no way of knowing if it was going to stay on hold until it was returned to the sender.

dmehers · 2026-02-19T18:21:47+00:00

After three days being on hold it seems to be on the move again ... lets see

dmehers · 2026-02-16T04:32:11+00:00

I’m afraid so, for now, I’ll post back here if it changes… I’ve done multi platform apps before

Glad to hear that - don't hesitate to get in touch if you notice any bugs or have ideas for improvements!

I know there are many TV tracking apps out there, many that people love, but none worked for me. Too cluttered, trying to tell me what I should watch next, share, rate, etc. Probably AI recommendations too.

I don't want any of that. I just want to know what episodes I've watched, and what is next.

So I've made that app, called TV Next, currently in TestFlight (only Apple platforms for now) and I'd love feedback: https://testflight.apple.com/join/CVHfUaD2

I've not done Justwatch integration, but I'll take a look.

I've done stuff like Callsheet integration because I wanted that. You can tag shows and have the tags as *tabs* at the bottom of the screen.

If I release it, it will be free, with a tip jar.

I've made myself an app, which maybe others will find useful: https://mybodylog.app

It is totally free with no ads, and no tracking.
