Getting launch-ready
We’re days away from submitting to the App Store. This update is all about the details that separate “it works” from “it feels right.”
What changed
Faster onboarding. We rebuilt the first-run experience based on beta feedback. Connecting your first account now takes under 60 seconds. We removed two unnecessary steps and made the Plaid connection flow feel seamless.
Smoother animations. Screen transitions, loading states, and progress bar updates all got tightened up. The app feels faster even when nothing changed performance-wise — perception matters.
Haptic feedback. Taps on key actions now give you subtle haptic responses. Small thing, but it makes the app feel more responsive and intentional.
Edge case fixes in the payoff calculator. Accounts with 0% APR (like some promotional credit cards) were throwing off the debt-free date calculation. Fixed. We also improved how the calculator handles accounts where the minimum payment exceeds the remaining balance.
Why this matters
Beta testers told us the core features worked great, but the “feel” needed work. This update is our answer to that. The features haven’t changed — the experience has.
What’s next
App Store submission. If everything goes smoothly with review, Spendify v1.0 will be available to everyone within the next two weeks.
