Supertop Podcast

We sold our iTunes promo code management app, Tokens, and our sales reporting app, Top Hat. We're joined by the new owner, Denis Hennessy, who tells us about his company, shares his thoughts on being an indie developer and teases some plans for Tokens.

Pádraig and Oisín discuss the amount of time they spend not programming and what it’s like working as a team instead of solo.

Oisín and Pádraig discuss the podcasting and App Store announcements at WWDC17.

Oisin and Padraig introduce Castro 2.4 and then discuss plans for our other Supertop apps, Top Hat, Tokens and Unread. We try to figure out what kind of focus Supertop should have and decide that we’re probably not a developer tools company.

A year after The New York Times published an article on the growth of podcasting, we discuss the current state of the medium and what the future may hold.

We’re joined by Jared Sinclair to discuss his new app, Stormcrow, and the best way to approach hobbies and side projects. Then we discuss what’s needed from social features in podcast apps, and what the future of Supertop might look like.

Pádraig and Oisín discuss triage in Castro and other podcast apps, complain about improperly implemented HTTP caching techniques and remember a puddle in Newcastle.

We discuss Castro 2.3 (and what’s coming in 2.4), Overcast 3, and Iconfactory's Kickstarter campaign for Twitterific.

We discuss feedback to our App Store Review Prompts blog post, ideas for improving Castro’s notifications, answer a listener question about open source, and more.

Oisin’s AirPods, Apple’s two new app store features: the ability for app owners to respond to reviews and a system ratings dialog in iOS. Then, bug of the week and we recommend some podcast episodes.
