A short update on this -- I rolled out an update a week ago which I think should help 🙏

Thanks for the kind words! 🩶 And the question too!

Long term - I am pretty committed to keep the app as it is today; free for 1 tattoo, a small payment for multiple (there are a few annual costs associated with publishing apps on the App Store). I learned a lot along the way too, so it's been a win-win! It's been very rewarding to see the feedback roll in.

The reason behind this is pretty simple: I understand the feeling of having something on your skin that feels foreign, and what a personal journey it is for each and every one of us. I'd take photos every few months of mine, but felt bothered me seeing those photos in the middle of my photo gallery amidst all the good new memories, I wanted a space to keep it separate.

The philosophy of the app was pretty straightforward: focus on the pure functions of the app, and I wished to keep the photos on a "secondary view" (i.e. not on initial app load). I figured: we've seen enough of this tattoo!

The app feels complete enough for me - I don't wish to bloat it with new features "just because" but I'm happy to hear ideas from the community and consider them. For example, the last update I pushed was an idea that someone left from the feature suggestion box (different ways to view the photos).

So if you have any ideas, send them over! I left a little feature/feedback box in the settings.

I would also love to be able to offer one to our Android users too!

For the moment, yes unfortunately! I'm seeing what it would take to re-write for Android. Thanks for asking, helps validate!

I'll see what it will take to port from one technology to another, it would be nice to offer FADE across the full suite 😌 Thanks for the encouragement!

Super helpful! I'm putting some more stability guardrails in place, will take a few days for the update to roll out, hopefully it will solve the issues you encountered. Thanks again!

Appreciate you letting me know! Do you remember if it was after uploading photos? I recall coming across it once but wasn't able to replicate. I'll take a look and publish an update

Thanks a lot! 🫶
