Quick Xcode & iOS Tip for Memory Crashes
If your app consumes too much memory, it will crash. Usually, this points to memory leaks or inefficiencies in your code.
However, sometimes the issue isn't your code! If you are loading a massive ML model (2GB+), rendering a heavy game, or processing heavy video exports, your app naturally needs more RAM to function.
The good news? You can request a higher memory limit from the system, and you'll usually get it.
Apple introduced this feature starting with iOS 15.
Here is how to enable it:
1. Open your project in Xcode.
2. Click on your Project name in the navigator.
3. Select your project under the Target section.
4. Click on the + Capability button.
5. Search for and add Increased Memory Limit.
I tested this myself with a heavy model that kept crashing the app due to high memory consumption. After enabling this capability, the issue was completely resolved! ๐

Experiment in vibe coding a dual-platform iOS and #AndroidDev #SwiftUI calculator with Claude and Skip. Why Skip and not separate codebases? Because regardless of who or what writes it, shared code means half the bugs and maintenance

๐โจ Behold, the latest "innovation": a native #macOS client for Hacker News, because clearly what the world needs is more opportunities to get distracted by internet debates in #SwiftUI. ๐๐ With that kind of groundbreaking progress, we can only wonder what's next โ perhaps a bespoke app for reading comment section arguments on YouTube? ๐ฅณ๐

One of the reasons why I think Xcode is a true IDE and everything else is just a code editor. #SwiftUI

I have an odd #Swift #SwiftUI problem.
I have an @Observable and I use onChange(of:) to fire a sound when a value changes, which happens on a timed basis. That works.
The app can be backgrounded, and when the app becomes not-background I update the state. The problem is the state change fires the sound, which I don't want to have happened since the state "change" ostensibly happened when it was backgrounded.
So how can I either update the state before the onChange(of:) handler sees it or ignore the change just when coming out of background?
