    A bounty of sticker-worthy images exist across the web. And even more with iOS 16’s ability to copy an image subject. This iMessage app converts any pasted image into a sticker you can attach to messages. 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗽 (iOS - Free) stickerclip.app Stick away!

    I made a versatile little tool for visionOS— 🪟 translucent.vision #Translucent lifts web apps out of the browser and brings them into your space—with borderless windows, useful overrides, and all the trappings of native apps.

    👆 Tip: in Gmail (on iOS) you can swipe down on the profile image to switch accounts in a single gesture. 👏 This is terrific – Thank you for making this easy, @gmail team :)

    With some trickery, Google Sheets lets you use Material Icons as a font. Which means: icon formulas, colorization, and much, much more! → 📊 material.sheet.supply (things like this make me really happy)✨ Thanks all the folks who make Google Fonts so wonderful! + @jestelle

    🤩🏁 I'm fascinated with QR codes—a surprisingly good way to share bits of info with folks when you're not connected. 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 is a quick little experiment to make them from the share button in any iOS app ℹ️ sharecode.app ⬇️ get.sharecode.app Try it!

    I'm delighted to make something with these folks again! We're building a platform that lets people work with trusted agents across their devices—and gives them time back for what really matters.

    ✏️✨🧲 Tip: You can type on the iPad in flat mode by fooling it with the magnet in the Pencil. I like take notes in meetings without a screen dividing us, so I lay my iPad flat and have carried a magnet to trick it into working.... but now the new Pencil works instead. Huzzah!

    Working on widget·vision, a little project that lets you bring all sorts of web content in your space. 🌈 Transparent web views are a secret superpower of the web, used by Dashboard and many great apps. Making, sharing, and placing them in your own space is a revelation.
