Waiting For Review

I’ve only really been an iOS developer for a few months now, but I think I can say with confidence at this point that waiting for Apple to review your app is one of the most stressful parts of the whole experience. The App Store is known for its exclusivity, and it’s not particularly pleasant to wonder if Apple will like your idea—or at least your execution of it—well enough to approve the app you put hours of work into.

Today, I am equally excited and terrified to say that the iOS app that I have been working on for the last few months is now waiting for review on the App Store. If all goes well, this app should be out within the next few days. If not, it may never see the light of day. This is not exactly a comforting thought, but it’s the reality of making iOS apps and publishing them on the App Store.

As of now, however, all we can really do is wait and see what happens. I’ll let you know how things turn out either way. After all, I feel that it is important to share what’s going on with my projects on this blog, and I want you all to know the outcome whatever it may be.

Until then, thanks for reading, and stay tuned for more updates!

What's in John's Backpack? (EDC)

I may no longer be a computer science major, but I'm still fascinated by electronics of all kinds. That's why I take great pleasure in writing about my "everyday carry," that being the devices that I regularly take along with me. These are often being swapped around, as I am an enthusiast at heart, but some of these have stuck around for a long time. So, here's the list: Phone: iPhone 15 Pro (128 GB) It's a very nice phone. That's about all I have to say about it. Like most people, I'm pretty apathetic toward iPhones. I prefer iOS for my needs, and it does what I need it to. 'Nuff said. Laptop: MacBook Pro 14" (2023, M3) I feel bad for my MacBook Pro. It gets tossed around in my bag, is constantly being used, and has a fair few battle scars. But it keeps on going. This laptop has gotten me through college thus far, and I'm hoping I won't have to replace it for a few more years. Watch: Apple Watch SE (the newest one) I swear that this i...

I love my Instax Mini SE. Here's why!

Hey, folks! I did it. I finally got into instant photography. And I love it. Admittedly, I've had some experience with instant photography before now. I got my first instant camera at a thrift store in 2022. It was a Polaroid OneStep from the 90s, and while film was still readily available for it, it was far too expensive to justify using it regularly. As cool as instant photography was, I accepted that it wasn't economically viable for me and moved on. ...Until about a month ago! On one of my first dates with my girlfriend, she introduced me to her Fujifilm Instax Mini 11. It was a much more compact and modern instant camera than my Polaroid. It also used smaller film slides. This was a big deal, as she informed me that the smaller film came at a smaller price. I was intrigued. A couple weeks later, I ventured to Walmart and splurged. I picked up the cheapest Instax they sold: The Mini SE. It only cost about $57, and it came bundled with 10 slides of film. I also picked up an ...
