Waiting For Review David Gary Wood

I’m joined by Austin Blake, a prolific indie developer from Salt Lake City in the US. He creates beautiful apps in the productivity niche.


His note taking app Mitynote has just hit it's 3.0. release. We talked about his development, marketing, and release process, and how that's honed over time and the years. Austin has a grounded view of making his apps accessible for everyone, whilst monetizing and supporting his work through subscriptions.


Enjoy the show!

I’m joined by Daniel Jilg, developer of AppTelemetry; lightweight analytics that’s not evil. We talked at the start of Season 2 of this podcast, and I thought I’d catch up with him again about his product App Telemetry.

I’m joined by David Niemeijer, founder and CEO of AssistiveWare.


AssistiveWare make Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) apps, that help many people communicate better in their lives. AssistiveWare have a long history of Apple applications and iOS, and so I thought I’d get him on the show to talk more about how they started and what they do.


We talk product development, market fit, and the counter intuitive aspect of pricing that enables both sustainability of the product and the ability to reach users that benefit.

I'm joined on this episode by Chris Hefferman.


Chris is the iOS developer behind LoTR Quiz, and MyAdsense. Since launching his apps in the App Store, he's made the leap into iOS development full time, changing his career in the process.


Chris talks to me about this, his background in development, joining the Fireside Swift crew on their podcast and being an active member of the iOS development community. 2021 looks set to be a big year for Chris, as he's looking for a full time iOS development position where he can really spread his wings.


I hope you enjoy the show as much as I did recording it,
