Got Pocket Rocket App's lovely little countdown timer converted into SwiftUI too. This is one of Aaron Abentheuer's masterclass of design touches. I was really relieved to be able to recreate it on my own. (Ignore the type sizing-- it's incorrectly scaled up for this video)

We're sort of doing a v2 again. But this time, we finished making it. It will mostly look the same for a bit, with the exception of the Launch Details view. But this rebuild lets up really rapidly add to or change the app. The current version... uhh... doesn't let us do that.

We've completely rewritten the app from the ground up. The AR feature and Add to Calendar feature will be missing from this version, but will come back soon with better designs. This version is the foundation that will let us really evolve the app. Hope you enjoy -Tim

If you're receiving notifications from the app, it's from an entirely new notification service that we built. So, it's possible that it's going to have some bumps while it's being field tested en masse for the first time. Please let us know if you have any issues.

I challenged myself with a one-day feature build out for Pocket Rocket, and I managed to pull it off. Granular subscriptions to launches. If you only want Starship launch notifications, you can have that. Will be available for subscribers. Submitting to the App Store soon.

Mostly done getting the app ready for Vision. Getting a much better understanding of visionOS. Even in the simulator, I think the new OS is remarkable. Hope you all like big rockets!

Right on time for the Vision Pro launching in China, we've added the Long March rocket family to Pocket Rocket. We're hoping to bring every country's pride in their space program to the app. Here's a render of the incoming models.

For anyone who wanted the original iOS app of Pocket Rocket, it’s now available again on the App Store! Sorry for such a long wait. It was very precarious to get it back up. Enjoy yourself some lovely UI, Widgets, and launch reminder notifications!
