Welcome to this week's edition of our newsletter.

Apple has updated its official Figma UI kits for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS 27, giving designers and developers a refreshed set of components, styles, materials, and templates that reflect the latest platform updates.

Image Playground Sheet in SwiftUI → Livsy Code

Greetings, traveler! When the Image Playground framework first appeared, it gave developers two different paths. You could present the system Image Playground interface, or you could use ImageCreator to generate images programmatically from your app. That second path is going away. Apple has deprecated the ImageCreator class. It will no longer work in iOS 27,

oh my hours

All screen time reports tell the same story: how many minutes you spent, in which apps, compared to last week. The numbers pile up, the limits get snoozed, and somehow knowing exactly how long you scrolled never quite makes you scroll less.

Oh my hours, developed by Yaroslav, asks a different question: how many hours of your day stayed distraction-free? You pick the apps you would rather avoid, and each hour of the day appears as a single mark on a grid. The hour is yours if you stayed away, lost if you opened one of them, even for a second. It's a simple concept, but a very effective one: there's no blocking, no bypass popup, no shaming, just the grid, sitting on your home or lock screen widget, quietly showing how the day went and the name it's literally what you'll say the first time you look at it.
