Why it worked

The video provides a behind-the-scenes look at app development, specifically focusing on a user-centric feature (workout reminders) and the technical challenges involved (push notification permissions). This appeals to a developer audience interested in practical implementation and problem-solving.

Summary

The creator explains the implementation of a new feature for their app, WishKit, which sends daily workout reminders. They detail the process of obtaining user permission for push notifications and setting a default reminder time.

Original caption

Today we continued implementing our new feature that helps our users to remember to workout! Yesterday we stored the time when a user wants to receive a push notification as a reminder to workout 🏋🏼‍♂️ Now we are firing a notification at exactly that time. Every day. But iOS is very privacy oriented and so an additional step we had to go was to ask for permission to send push notifications. 🙇🏼‍♂️ PS. If the user allows notifications but doesn’t select a time it defaults to 8am in the morning heheh 😏 Happy Coding ✌🏻#softwaredeveloper #indiedeveloper #iosdeveloper #developer #gamedevelopment #gamedeveloper
