iOS Dev Tools: SwiftSafeUI, Northstar, Ezscreenshots
Hey! π I appreciate you reading and supporting the newsletter. Another Thursday, another issue with the latest tools to help you with daily tasks. Let’s dive in! Let’s connect on X (ex-Twitter) & LinkedIn! π€ How Xcode 26's Compilation Cache Actually WorksXcode 26's new compilation cache reuses object files and module artifacts when source and compiler settings haven't changed. In Bitrise's testing on open-source iOS projects, builds ran 19-55% faster. The Bitrise team walks through setup and rollout. SwiftSafeUISwift package designed to streamline the management of deprecated SwiftUI APIs across OS versions. It provides a clean and efficient way to handle deprecation logic, ensuring your app always uses the latest APIs while seamlessly falling back to older, deprecated ones when necessary. Why you will like it:
NorthstarApp Store Optimization for macOS without the guesswork. Every keyword gets an opportunity score so you always know what matters and where to focus. Why you will like it:
EzscreenshotsA simple screenshot maker for the App Store and Play Store. Why you will like it:
Latitude - It helps developers find and fix failure modes before they reach production. Most tools give you logs. Latitude gives you issues: failure modes with states and evals attached. Pipali - AI coworker that lives on your computer. It interacts with your files, browser, and apps to get real work done. Handles deep research, polished docs, browser tasks, and routine errands. Teach it your workflows with Skills, run recurring tasks with Routines, and integrate with apps like Linear, Slack, and GitHub via MCP. Linker - Connects files, folders, emails, and websites through bidirectional links, making scattered information feel oddly coherent. Fast keyboard shortcuts, plain JSON storage, and a clean, unobtrusive design keep everything within easy reach. TaskMenu - Brings Google Tasks to the macOS menu bar with a fast, native SwiftUI interface. It stays out of the Dock, opens as a compact popover, and keeps everyday task management close without pulling you out of your work. Dropshit - Lets you temporarily stash files, text, and images with a quick shake gesture, then drag them back into any app later.
