it's an app to communicate with a pwnagotchi. if you don't know what this is, it dosen't really matter.
the only thing you have to know is that the face on the top, and the 3-line message right under are representing the live state of the pwnagotchi.
also made a toggle to choose an horizontal layout
Hi everyone, hope y'all doing well. I'm here to give you some informations regarding the PwnagotchLink app project I teased you a few months ago.
First of all, the project is still going on. I just had to put it on hold the last months because of some exams and other stuff. But now I'm back on it! I recently bought a year of the Apple Developer license to try stuff with Live Activities and Notifications : looks nice so far.
Some of you might be wondering : when will we be able to test or download the app?
Short answer : in September, when iOS 27 will drop. I'm adapting the app right now to make it iOS27-ready 👍🏼
(also experimenting some things with some of the new APIs and everything)
And lastly, let's talk about pricing.
As I said before, the app is going to be free, with (at least for now) all serverless features included.
But unfortunately, notifications and live activities requires me to run a server, and that will cost a little amount of money. To stay fair regarding the development of the app, and the eventual costs of the server, I thought about making a one-time premium purchase, approx. 5-6$, to unlock these features that relies on an API.
[UPDATE] : since I need to have a more "predictable" source of recurring revenue to cover the additional server costs, I'm now considering a yearly 5-6$ subscription. I think it's the right balance 👍🏼 what do you guys think?
Does that sound fair to you?
Of course, that's just an idea so far! Maybe things will evolve, I ain't promising everything, just want your feedback on this. Also, it's my first app, so if you guys have some suggestions or advices, I'd love to hear it!
