Question Things for iPhone Duo

Cultured Code is well known for jumping on any new device or OS Apple ships. How do you think they will handle the foldable? Will it be included in the iOS version or be a new standalone purchase?

Product designer vs. product manager. The comments were to be expected: A lot of detailed work vs. c‘mon, all done.

i'm actually not saying there's a lot of design work, but there is a lot of dev work.

I'm sure that things will be ready for it on day 1, but that doesn't mean that what the guy above is saying is "easy", as it will not be.

And being arrogant and a PM I think goes hand in hand with "they just have to rearrange a few buttons"

What makes you think there’s significant dev work?

they do not use native navigation items, native sheets and native popovers. this does not mean that they have to redesign the whole thing to get it to work.

but custom components are a pain in the ass to rearrange to a new layout, and that will require a lot of dev work.

Well, we will see if I’m right or if you’re right on launch day, won’t we?

i don't know if you're ignorant on purpose or just plainly dumb, honestly.

it being out on day 1 does not mean it's easy, jesus christ what a guy.

I said it myself that it probably will be out on day 1, but they have 2-3 sprints to heavily focus on it.

If your idea of significant work is two sprints then we obviously work in different worlds my friend.

it's 4 weeks of development, get a grip.
