![]() ![]() Now, I search for and launch most apps with Spotlight on my iPhone and iPad, and because of that, I’ve set up my Home Screens to give glanceable information, offer quick access to essential apps, and to help nudge me into a certain mode. I used to fill my Home Screens with folders and icons and utilize it as a launchpad for all my apps. Right off the bat, when making this post, I realized that the way I’ve used my Home Screen has substantially changed over the past couple of years. He is a teacher, he host of the podcast Creative Consumption, and he’s a swell guy. Thanks, Andrew! Home Screens: Daniel Schwartzberg Most of my Focus modes use the Photos wallpaper, and I have it randomly cycle through my favorite photos. I have different iPhone wallpapers by Focus mode. If you were in charge at Apple, what would you add or change? ![]() That is why I enjoy my hobby of app development! I love how these devices can be so personal and become a great creative and information tool. In general, so many apps and content available on a great platform. What is your favorite feature of the iPhone/iPad? My main Home Screen features the Siri Suggestions widget at the top. Instead, I’ve got a lot of what I need on Home Screen widgets, particularly using Widgetsmith. However, I rarely swipe over to the Today View. I have a ton of Today View widgets, mostly news-type widgets. What Today View widgets are you using and why? IPad: usually once a day - at night for YouTube and tv. ![]() How many times a day do you use your iPhone/iPad? Instead, I use the Notes app a lot, and it is great for my personal project notes. I definitely underutilize that for my personal use. What app do you know you’re underutilizing? However, if I had to pick one, I would say Reminders because it is my daily task go-to app. I would say, for me, I use the Photos, Calendar, Reminders, Safari, Mail, Notes, and Messages apps. Since my daily work is on a Windows PC, my productivity using my iPhone and other Apple devices is for personal and hobby productivity. I also love and daily use the App Store Connect app and, recently, the Disneyland app. He’s an engineer and an app developer ( Lifeorities and Starship SE Corps). I’ve got to know Andy in the MacSparky Labs. So even if it's days after I do the work, I can look back at the automatic entries for that day, figure out who I was doing work for and then manually assign those unassigned entries it to the right project (client).This week’s Home Screen features Andrew Hall. Basically apps that I use for all clients without a clean way of identifying who it's for. When I use an app or a workflow that doesn't fit any rules, such as using postman to query an API, analyzing the results of that query in a text editor, querying databases with beekeeper, etc. I didn't like the automatic tracking in the other apps mentioned because it tracks what you configure, as opposed to tracking everything, categorizing based on your rules and allowing you to manually assign/unassign entries for a day.įor instance, with multiple clients, I have multiple projects (clients) in qbserve and the rules can track about 70% automatically, but it's the other 30% that I really care about. I tried a lot of the applications here but ended up using qbserve. program something, but need to quickly look something up on Google, it will still track the whole time as if you were in the IDE, unless you spend more than the configured amount of time reading the documentation (and ofc you can assign the documentation to the same project) It also allows you to set a gap time, so if you e.g. The one exception seems to be calls, where it asks you at the end if you want to log the whole thing regardless of what you were doing during it. It only tracks what you're doing for the active window, as far as I can tell. It will also show you stuff like "4h You can drag it to assign the whole thing to a category, or expand it to see a list of all the videos you've watched and assign it all to a category. 2pm to 4pm to "Learning" and everything past 4pm to "Entertainment". You can see a timeline of your day, with what you were doing at every point, and just drag a block to assign everything from e.g. You can also just review it at the end of the day, and you have several options: ![]() As long as the "Javascript" keyword rule has higher priority in the rules list, then you watching Javascript tutorials will be assigned to "Learning" or whatever you set it to, and when you watch cat videos, it goes to "Entertainment" You can set it to so that the keyword "Javascript" is assigned to a project, whereas Youtube in general is assigned to "Entertainment". When you watch a video on Youtube, the website title is changed to the video title. ![]()
