Hi everyone! I'm Kantar, a Vancouver-based indie dev. I built AlivePing Check-in to help people stay connected with loved ones simple check-ins, automated SMS/call alerts, no unnecessary location tracking. Key features: - Flexible daily/weekly check-in schedules - Automated SMS & voice call alerts for missed check-ins - Privacy-first (no default location tracking) - 100% Canadian-made Important: This app is currently available ONLY on the US & Canada App Stores. SMS/call alerts work only in US/CA. We re working to expand globally soon! Launching on Product Hunt this Monday (Mar 9). Would love your feedback!
Apple is hosting its 2025 Worldwide Developers Conference starting Monday (You can watch live here), and there are rumours about what people can expect.
I read the TechCrunch article, and some hints are:
The apps you need for everything you want to create. Craft your stories with video in Final Cut Pro. Reimagine images in Pixelmator Pro. Produce your best music in Logic Pro. Supercharge productivity with premium content in Keynote, Pages, Numbers, and Freeform Boost workflows with AI features that build on Apple Intelligence. And with Family Sharing, up to five other people can enjoy your subscription too.
Apple today said it is putting six tools together under a single subscription called Apple Creator Studio. For $12.99 per month (or $129 annually), subscribers get:
Final Cut Pro (Mac and iPad) for editing video
Logic Pro (Mac and iPad), a digital audio workstation
Pixelmator Pro (Mac and iPad) to edit images
MainStage (Mac) to turn your computer into a musical instrument
Motion (Mac) to create video animation
Compressor (Mac) to transcode media files into other formats
Extra features on Keynote, Pages, Numbers and (soon) Freeform
Considering tools like Final Cut Pro only used to sell for a one-time purchase of $300 and then later on just iPad for $4.99/month, how does this deal look for consumers? Do the bundled items some of them video, some of them audio make sense together? And since Apple can offer it through its own App Store without charging itself commission, where can competitor products compete?
