Hello! I’m very impressed that the update in the AppStore appeared at the same time as that in the TestFlight.

Some developers take like 3-4 days after updating TestFlight before the AppStore.

I’m impressed by your dedication. Keep it up!

Thanks! I try to release often with a small set of features/fixes to get feedback quickly. The release pipeline is also mostly automated so it works well (despite releasing to docker + vger.app + play store + app store for each release)

Wow. Thanks for your hard work! But make sure to take care of yourself and get some rest when you can.

I understand the burning passion you have for coding, but that passion might lead to burn out if you don’t.

Probably those other apps have a delay so that any major issues can be caught by testflight users before publishing to everyone.

I imagine once it’s released on the App Store, updates will slow down due to Apple’s approval process, it’s just not a priority for them to approve updates right away

It’s already on the App Store. That’s what this post was about.

Apple are a lot quicker at approvals nowadays, they automated a lot of checks a few years ago.

oh neat then, I'm still using the TestFlight version. Surprised to hear that updates are as fast as they are then
