Spotted in Prod is a curated video library of the best apps and interactions on iOS. Search by name, category, pattern, and more. Scrub clips frame-by-frame. Discover the people behind the craft. And most importantly: download great apps.
Hi hey hi! π
Since July of last year we've been posting moments of iOS craft daily on Twitter - from indie developers to big tech. We've made a ton of friends and our community has grown more than we ever expected, so we decided it was finally time to build a site of our own. One that showcased all of these clips and offered a navigation experience that our plain old social media feeds could not.
But there was a problem: if said website did not slap we could say goodbye to any street cred we had gained over the past year π and we really didn't want that to happen. πΏ
Well today I'm quite proud to say that Joe (@_jsmth) and Neesh (@cheesyneesh) have pan-fried and simmered to perfection π¨βπ³π² a web experience worthy of flaunting to your in-laws.
Please enjoy the new best way to discover iOS apps.
As always we would love to hear your feedback and thoughts. But maybe even more so we would love to hear any cool iOS app recommendations that you think deserve a feature. π
See you in the pixels,
Raffi

SIP has become indispensable to find the best iOS apps in the industry and highlight novel UX patterns that set the standard for mobile interactions.
Love the visual approach. ~14 years ago I worked on a similar project (much poorly executed) highlighting screenshots of mobile games' onboarding, share mechanics, and other flows of the user journey to centralize ideas and inspiration for other game devs.
Iβve been looking for something exactly like this to stay inspired by mobile UX. Being able to explore by category or interaction type is such a smart touch. Makes it so much easier for designers like me to study whatβs working out there.
Great! I'm wondering if a visual tap indicator(How a finger is pressed/swiped) would be a big plus for some or it's just me. Ideally maybe there can be an option to enable or disable it. Cool product, thanks for sharing!
@scientist1642Β oh boy we have DEFINITELY thought about this. It will be a big lift with the number of clips and gestures but probably worth doing at some point down the road.
Spotted in Prod is an absolute gem. Raffi isnβt just passionate about great appsβheβs obsessed. Today, this website is by far the best place for those who want to be exposed to exceptional taste
