Dear X Design Who thought replacing the native Android... gallery with the Google Photos media picker was a good idea? 🤦‍♂️ On Galaxy phones, I expect the app to open Samsung Gallery, not Google Photos. Now I have to: ❌ Dig through folders every time ❌ Re-select the same folder for every new attachment ❌ Spend more time finding photos than actually posting This is a massive UX downgrade. Android isn't one-size-fits-all. Respect OEM gallery apps and use the native media picker instead. Samsung Members gets this right. I've attached a video showing the difference. Agree? Repost so the X team sees this. 👇🏻show more

The latest loophole that third-party file manager apps were... using to get access to files and folders under /Android/data and /Android/obb has been patched. As part of Android 11's Scoped Storage restrictions, apps that use the Storage Access Framework (SAF) to launch the documents picker are not supposed to be able to get access to files and folders under the /Android/data or /Android/obb directories. However, third-party file managers figured out that if they set the initial directory when launching the documents picker to either /Android/data or /Android/obb, the documents picker lets the user grant the app full access to directories. This loophole was patched in Android 13, but then another loophole was discovered that got around this. Since Android 13 only blocked apps from setting /Android/data or /Android/obb as the initial directory when launching the documents picker, it was quickly discovered that you could set the initial directory to one of the subdirectories under /Android/data or /Android/obb, thus the user could grant access to individual subdirectories one-by-one. However, this latest loophole was patched with a recent Google Play System Update. The latest version of the DocumentsUI app, the Project Mainline module that comprises the documents picker, now restricts the initial location for the ACTION_OPEN_DOCUMENT/_TREE intent so that apps cannot request the initial location to be one of /Android/data, /Android/sandbox, /Android/obb, or one of their subdirectories. If the DocumentsUI app (AKA 'Files' app) on your device is on version 14-10492947 (version code 340916000), then this loophole is patched.show more

Bone Tide is officially out on the App Store... and Google Play 🎉 The React Native Expo version runs on the exact same TypeGPU engine as the Web game, shared 1:1 between both platforms. Only the UI was ported to React This was made possible by some amazing work across the React Native open source ecosystem. Huge thanks to William Candillon for react-native-webgpu and for always helping me resolve any issues incredibly quickly :D I think it’s a pretty cool showcase of what can be built with React Native nowadays. More details about the libraries used in the 🧵 featuring what might be the ultimate Software Mansion stack iOS: Android: Web:show more

Hot Take: The New Camera app on iOS 26... is GREAT i initially hated it when i first saw it on the keynote, but now that i've used it, I'm loving it It’s familiar while being really simple I've always felt that the Camera app on iOS has gotten really complex and convoluted in these last few years, and the new one fixes that, while still being as nuanced as the old app if you configure it the way you want it to behave takes some time to get used to, but this is great, it really does simplify the whole Ul but, this could've been the perfect time for Apple to introduce Manual controls as an Option in the Native app, even after all this redesign, Apple is still stubborn on not adding Manual Controls it's 2025 Apple,if you're gonna let users shoot LOG Video from the Native App, let us have Manual Controls as an option in the Native App, instead of downloading third party apps👏 i wonder how people shoot LOG Videos without Manual Controls💀show more

X is finally rolling out the redesign of profiles... and tabs! 🔥 The classic blue is gone, active tabs now highlight in black or white, with icons appearing next to the active tab name. You’ll also feel satisfying haptics every time you switch tabs. Profiles just got a lot cleaner: tabs have been replaced by icons, reducing visual clutter. Posts & Highlights are now combined into one tab (just tap to switch between them). Same with Videos & Photos. A brand new Reposts tab has been added, so everything you repost lives there instead of mixing with your original posts. Plus, your posts no longer appear in the Replies tab. I’m loving how X is evolving with the new redesigns they’re doing. Thanks to Benji and the design team for this! 👏show more

This is a question I think quite a lot... of people are wondering about. Right now, I’m hiring students to handle the newer phones, post content, and create content every day. For the TikTok accounts that are already trusted, have been running for a long time, and have a high follower count, I automate them using my own internal tools. Currently, I only handle the first steps myself: buying new phones → warming them up → making the first posts. After that, I hand the phones over to the students I hire to continue creating and posting content. Then, once I feel the accounts are strong enough, I move them into automation. And right now, I’m traveling with my family in Da Nang. This time I’m here with my family and want to spend all my time with them, so I won’t be meeting anyone while I’m here. 🏝️ I always aim to build everything in an automated way, or avoid doing things I don’t enjoy by hiring people to handle them for me.😌show more

I Built Tiktok for video games in 72hrs and... It went so VIRAL that investors started hitting my dms but it gets even crazier.. because this $1M app idea just turned into a $100M app idea the #1 suggestion i got from you guys on X Was to add multiplayer or local playing with friends to the games Bc that’s what actually makes Tiktok so addictive It’s the interaction with other users. comments, likes, reposts it's all multi-player. but of course that is a complicated task to add to our little app here. very complicated... Thats when the co-founder of reached out And said they are woking on a multiplayer feature for Rork To make this process an extremely easy. This is why Rork is the #1 app builder right now as far as updates on the app →i've added 5 more games to the feed (mostly classics!) → Started implementing the multiplayer UI to invite friends/match-making if you have any ideas for games or for the app drop your suggestions below!show more

OpenCode Go is now wired into Codex!! The pricing... is insane. $10 gets you 10,000 DeepSeek requests every 5 hours (no weekly limits). I converted that into DeepSeek API dollars because I thought I was reading it wrong, and the same 5 hours of usage would run somewhere between $10 and $30 depending on how big your context gets. So one afternoon of use already covers the whole sub. It comes with Kimi K3 as well. Both sit in the picker next to my other models now. Next time we hit a limit in the middle of a loop, we can grab it and keep going.show more

Hi everyone Great news, we have sucesfully cashed out... all the money from the wallet that the mom gave us, and this morning me and my brother, went to their village to give them the money in exchange for the solanas raised It took some effort and help from 28. Jun to prove that the crypto community actually raised all this money, but luckily they managed to pull it off. With the 19 000$ that we have raised + what 28Jun has raised, we have purchased a new home for them in their village ( il get the photos of that too) , as this one was not in great condition and it is too small for such a big family. I would like to thank u all for participating and proving that when its a good cause, we can all come together and help, no matter the country, race or nationality Here are some photos i took from this beautiful familyshow more

Comedian Samay Raina was going to a restaurant when... he suddenly saw paparazzi and media people there and started running away very fast so that the media could not take his photos or videos. Samay Raina tries to show that he stays away from paparazzi and cameras, that he is a very ordinary person in his personal life and does not like the celebrity lifestyle. That is why, after seeing the media and paparazzi, he started acting as if he was running away from them. But if you look carefully at the same video, you can see that two people from his own team were walking behind him with cameras, recording and taking photos of him every moment. They even followed him inside the restaurant with the cameras still recording. So while Samay Raina was pretending to run away from the paparazzi and avoid getting photographed, his own team was filming him at the same time. This is the reality of celebrities like Samay Raina. They show themselves as something different in front of the media, while behind the scenes, things can be completely different.show more

I've been testing out Windows 11's new Haptic Signals... feature on compatible hardware, and I think I love it. I'm someone who yearns for small UX details like this, and I'm so happy to see Microsoft leaning into subtle but quality UX implementations like haptics across the Windows Shell. These new Haptic Signals provide a subtle bump when interacting with certain UI elements and actions, such as snapping app windows or dragging files in File Explorer. The feedback response feels great and intentional, and makes using the OS feel more satisfying. There's still room for improvement, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't impressed with this first implementation. It's only supported on a handful of devices for now, but that should change over time. I've always loved the haptic feedback layered throughout Google Pixel phones, and now Windows is getting its own version of it. More UX niceties like this, please!show more

✨ Every time the video models get better, the... try on model on Photo AI also becomes a lot more useful, as a large % of my customers now are e-commerce store And showing clothes in a video is nice for sales! With AI this means stores don't need to do expensive shoots flying a model and entire camera and light crew around the world They can just upload a few photos of their models, then upload the clothes, and describe the setting (like a beach in Thailand) and in less than 10 seconds it's generated, for a video in less than a minute! Below is the input: a dress laid flat, and output: a full video shootshow more

I've been sitting on this (there are more) for... just the right moment. This was at the Verso loft for a fundraiser for the Zohran/Phara/Samelys/Jabari slate. Everyone was amazing. Dania and I were blown away. But we also realized: no was going to give. We're not rich but we believe in the cause and are old enough to have lived through so much failure. So we forked over the big first donation. Mamdani today is making it look worth every penny. I suffer no illusions about what is coming but today is a day to feel good...show more

Do you know what the smoothest OS is now?... It's not iOS18, I think it's Huawei HarmonyOS NEXT. Although I haven't come into contact with the OS myself, I was surprised to see the video released by the beta tester. 24 apps were opened continuously without any lag or delay. Even iOS may not be so perfect. someone will ask the question that has been asked countless times again: What's the point of testing like this? We don't use mobile phones like this. I will give these people a clear answer today. This is called "fluidity stress test", which is the same test logic as 3D Mark Wild Life Extreme Stress Test. Why don't you ask 3D Mark, "What's the point of testing the game 20 times like this?" Instead, you still regard this test as a very valuable test project? It is indeed valuable. So it is also very valuable to open multiple apps in a row to test the system's stress resistance, as shown in the video. You can test the phone you are using. If it can pass the test, then it must be responsive and less sluggish in daily use. If your phone cannot pass the test, then you will definitely encounter sluggishness, frame drops, and unresponsiveness when you are busy operating between multiple apps. This is the deep-rooted problem of One UI. If One UI can operate so smoothly, then Samsung will succeed. But for Samsung now, this video is a science fiction film.show more

this is the moment successfully finished scheduling shifts for... my parent's tea store for the first time. my mom is BLOWN AWAY. this is going to save her hours of every week going back and forth with the team and sorting out this annoying task. the way we set it up: - "CameliaOS", our moltbot, sends her a reminder every morning to ask for inputs from team - team members respond with times - my mom sends screenshots to Camelia - Camelia updates her on any missing inputs - Camelia drafts a plan, adds it to google calendar (color coded, which is the form factor that the team is used to) - my mom gives Camelia feedback - she ships it one interesting learning: as we were teaching Camelia this new skill, my mom sometimes asked me "how should i explain to it that X or Y" I told her - just discuss with her like you would with any human, just share your doubts and concerns.. Opus is so great at making sense from vague inputs and help crystalize a plan. we are making progress, many more workflows to teach CamealiaOS, and I am sure more will surface the deeper we go into it.show more

HTML Artifacts are a big part of how I... work with agents now. Artifacts can be more than just static files. When combined with agents, they can take action or help you take action. This unlocks all kinds of interesting ways to work with agents. This is clearly the future. Check out this writing and scheduler artifact I built in a few minutes. It uses a bit of HTML and JS. All the data is in markdown (Obsidian vaults), so the agent can access and modify it at any time. No DB needed. No sophisticated functionalities. The agent decides all that for me based on the skills, context, and memory it has access to. The best part about this simple stack is that all the important information stays with me. This has allowed me to build a recursive self-improving system and automations that can better tap into coding agents like Codex or Claude Code. I could have paid or built an entire app for scheduling posts, and there are so many of them out there. But I don't need to. I've realized a simple artifact does the job. And the simplicity of it is actually an advantage. Very little maintenance for very high returns on personalization, time, and efficiency. The other benefit of this is that I can add features as I please. That level of personalization feels magical, and we should all be pursuing more of it. All of this just keeps compounding. Of course, this example is just about writing. But I have similar artifacts for research, design, experimentation, evaluation, and so much more. And no, I didn't actually publish the post example I shared in the clip. It was just for demonstration purposes. I actually spend more time than this when writing together with agents. Lastly, having built my own agent orchestrator tool has made me realize that simplifying the tool stack is a superpower. If you are curious about how all this works, I will do a live session next week:show more

I went from 0 to 1,000,000+ views per month... on X. Just 11 rules. I reverse-engineered 20+ viral articles from top founders. Read all 24,000 lines of X's open-source algorithm. Tracked every metric on my own posts. I put everything into a playbook. 30+ pages. The 11 rules, the algorithm breakdown, templates and growth hacks Built for founders who want to use X to grow their app, their service, or their brand without paying for ads. Lowkey nervous to drop this one because it's literally the system behind every post I've made. Reply "X" and I'll DM it to you. Must be following so I can DM.show more
