Now: What I'm up to
This is my now-page, where you can see what I’ve been up to lately and what my current focus is.
Updated on: May 8, 2025Work & Projects
I'm fortunate to be working on several cool projects in parallel at the moment:
- This week I have released an app to the Apple App Store for the first time ever! Scot is a simple but opinionated watchOS app for tracking the score of your Padel matches. I'm pretty proud of it so give Scot a try if you play Padel and let me know what you think!
- The educational word guessing iPad app for children I have codeveloped with my wife is still being tested by teachers of an international school here in Hong Kong. The feedback has been great and I'm also planning to release this app in the coming weeks.
- The Magic the Gathering life counter app "Count For Your Life" (working title) I'm developing for Apple Watch is currently still in the closed TestFlight beta. I hope to release it to the world this month.
- The other super secret project I mentioned last month is also coming along nicely. Expect an update about that soon!
- I'm currently on the lookout for the next cool project I could contribute to with my skills as a UX/UI generalist. Let me know if you want to work with me!
Writing
I did not write a lot in April but I have a few cool blog posts lined up for May. One is going to be about the story behind why and how I developed Scot. I am looking forward to seeing how it will be received.
Life & Fun Stuffs
The trip to Beijing and Shanghai last month was just awesome. I was honestly surprised by how much more these two cities have to offer than I'd expected. And seeing the Great Wall of China for real was just completely mind-boggling. If you ever get the chance to go there do it!
Last week I went on two separate boat trips and both were so much fun.
I have no travels planned until July when my wife and I are going to spend three weeks in Australia followed by another three weeks in Europe to see friends and family. So I'm expecting these next 6-8 weeks to be quite productive!
