🔥 BLACK FRIDAY 🔥 Healthier work habits start today: deskrest.com/offers/

Do your app submissions take just as long during Black Friday week?

POV: You just released v1.0 and thought the hard part was over. Then the customer feedback arrives.

After an intense Black Friday week, rewarding ourselves with a spa day

Weekends are for shipping. I’m currently working on a new feature for DeskRest - Smart Break Reminder that users in my Discord have been asking for.

Recently someone asked me: “What keeps you motivated to keep making DeskRest better?” My answer: the feedback from our users and knowing that DeskRest - Smart Break Reminder is actually useful and helps people in their day-to-day work ♥️ What keeps you motivated in your project? Wishing you all

With version 1.14.0, we introduced the Break Detection feature. DeskRest - Smart Break Reminder automatically detects when you’re away and suggests logging the break so you can keep your statistics up to date.

7M people downloaded a POOP MAP. Ladies & gentlemen, your app idea isn’t dumb, you are that dumb mf who wants to build an iOS app to colonize mars.

Sometimes you just need a break from all the marketing stuff before you can come back stronger. DeskRest - Smart Break Reminder can help 🤝

I have been stuck in Apple review for over seven days and it is just not moving… I submitted it again today and I am hoping it finally works🤞

Resubmitting solved the problem. After that, it was reviewed and approved again as usual within 2–4 hours.

And another highly requested feature is on the way.

In 1.15.0 you can now navigate the pause screen using the Tab key. Especially keyboard people will love this feature 🙂

Is there any award that Klemens 🦆 Art of Fauna didn’t win with his apps this year? 😄 Congratulations on yet another success, that’s amazing! 🥳

Can anyone recommend macOS apps with a nice onboarding experience?

No other app of mine has ever received as much user feedback as DeskRest. It’s really the feedback that shaped DeskRest into what it is today 🙂

Feels strange traveling for three weeks without a laptop. First time I’ve ever been away from a computer for that long 😄
