Build 0.9 (2) is out with numerous bug fixes. I am not able to reproduce the app closure crash, but I do see crashes being counted in TestFlight... not sure if it still exists.

Working on an update that drastically improves capture performance: ~3 secs from capture to saving for 48MP photos <1 sec for 12MP photos (along with a lot more stable memory usage) And about that crashing issue upon closing the app, honestly have no idea, maybe this next

??? Am I trippin??? I am getting <2 seconds for 48MP photos now. This is huge, need to do more testing.

I might start compiling Potte with Xcode 26. The improvements to ScrollView performance, along with other backwards compatible SwiftUI improvements are just too good to pass up on. But this means Potte will stay in TestFlight until mid-September.

The next Potte update will take a while. The existing camera codebase is filled with debt, and is getting really hard to maintain. Spent the past week experimenting with new architectures that are much better, as the current implementation leaves so much performance and

Revisited this, and brought stable anchoring and zoom logics, all in SwiftUI. Will be part of the upcoming Potte update for gallery views and photo edits!

What people don’t understand is these are perfect scenarios. The real world doesn’t always have clean overlays, perfect backgrounds. Change the background elements to a messy photo library, cluttered webpage, then you see the pitfalls. We had these levels of liquid glass two

Appearances can be deceiving, and SwiftUI really fell short after this PoC. The worst thing was performance, LazyGrids simply cannot handle large item sets (talking 10,000+), plus all the abstractions made it impossible to do anything besides some simple ForEach’s. Has to use

Oh boy this is gonna cook!

August 4, beta 0.10. This one is good.

Drag, pinch, zoom, pan, scroll. What if your file manager worked like this? Super fun prototyping this in SwiftUI.

Proud to finally ship this after a long hiatus. We believe good tools should adapt to people, not the other way around. What we have here is a foundation of how we believe AI workflows should be. This is just the beginning for Interface Club
