I Built a BETTER Contacts App!

[@kebman]

I get a lot of new contacts. So, here's what I really need: GPS coordinates for when I got a new contacts. Yes, for the phone. With suggestions for which venue I met them in. I absolutely need to store the date for when I got a new contact. It would be nice to have a descriptor too, like ability to QUICKLY add hair colour, eye colour, rough height. And a note, like: "Chewinggum."

this was just for fun letting my imagination run wild, but interesting ideas for sure!

I love you brother I need a contact like this I need one more thing hand writing notes for each contacts Please tell me how can i get this app 😍

[@logankoshenka]

hahaha I just made this for fun! I wouldn't be able to get my hands on the data needed from Apple :)

[@robinyerhood]

Crazy how we can do what you said with gpt just 2 years later huh @3:40 ish

[@lukegannon8967]

Dude I love you freaking energy man, reminds me so much of me when I get excited finishing a sexy feature! Subscribed!

[@logankoshenka]

let’s gooo

[@TheKevo393]

Is this in this App Store yet 👍

[@logankoshenka]

unfortunately no, I don’t have access to the data so the whole analytics idea doesn’t seem doable … but it was a fun concept build! Also, I’m uploading a similar style video next week & that app WILL be on the app store 😁

[@DwayneWeller]

Their api has information on when you last called/text them? I've been wanting to build an app that helps me keep up with contacts I haven't spoken to or text in a while

[@kevinreynolds6462]

is this a product in the app store?

[@logankoshenka]

no it was kinda just for fun … would you download it?

[@TheKevo393]

@@logankoshenka without doubt - APPLE is missing a trick in its contacts app, also linking recent emails, text messages, reminders. What you have built looks amazing.

[@logankoshenka]

thank you! It’s something Apple would most likely have to do, as it’d be hard for a 3rd party to get this kind of access … but yeah it’s exciting to think about the opportunity they have with the analytics aspect, especially with the siri suggestions stuff you see today

[@TheKevo393]

@@logankoshenka lets see what APPLE announce at WWDC - I would be surprised if they built a new contacts app interface.

[@logankoshenka]

same

[@lucaorlandi75]

Hi Logan, when would I be able to install on my iPhone?

[@logankoshenka]

unfortunately it will not be on the app store ... this was just a concept sort of project that I did for fun, but I wouldn't have access to this sort of data to build the real thing

[@CtrlAltMike]

Hi Logan - Great tutorials, thanks for sharing them and helping me get started! I really like the organic wave design you created around 2:56 mark in this video. Do you have a tutorial for what goes inside the Wave views and how you bend them?

[@logankoshenka]

thanks so much! and no I don’t have a tutorial for it, the waves were a code sample from another tutorial I’ve done … but if you google like “swiftui wave shape” there are a lot of resources that come up!

[@CtrlAltMike]

@@logankoshenka Cool - no worries. I'm been plodding through a QuadShape tutorial and seem to be making progress!

[@logankoshenka]

nice!!!

[@kearen]

Well done! Have you given any thought to the view for editing/creating a contact?

[@logankoshenka]

no, maybe in another version!

[@DaveJacobseniOS]

Best iOS video on YT hands down. Do more of this please.

[@logankoshenka]

Dave, my guy! I appreciate it. I love making these kinds of videos over tutorials, but they don't seem to do the numbers so I'm trying to keep a balance. More on the way :)

[@DaveJacobseniOS]

@@logankoshenka I feel you dude. It’s refreshing to see someone jazzed about what they’re doing tho. Wish that was more common.

[@logankoshenka]

100%

[@eddydon1929]

how do you added linear color to the text ? they look nice

[@logankoshenka]

You can do it using .foregroundStyle! I cover it (and a lot of how I built this screen) in my second glassmorphism tutorial here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mobJk2uGqKhjh8k

[@geoffplywood6112]

Loving your brand of tutorials, Logan. That glassmorphism effect is all kinds of awesome!

[@logankoshenka]

I appreciate it! 🤝

Hey man. Could you redesign camera app? 😁

[@logankoshenka]

like the iOS camera app?

[@waterlemon9742]

@@logankoshenka yep 😁

[@generalcajoda]

Pardon my ignorance…..is this your new contacts app you made, or did you just make a concept on a computer?

[@logankoshenka]

just a concept! I don’t have access to the data that would allow me to make this as a standalone app … more of a “I wish apple did this / this is what I would do if I was apple” sort of deal

[@douglasahlquist]

Be nice to share the project with us as a starting point

[@idevelop9896]

Thank you 🙏

[@filipvabrousek6900]

Great video!

[@logankoshenka]

thanks!

[@idevelop9896]

Great contents but could you make a video as a tutorial for making this app?

[@logankoshenka]

a lot of it is covered in this video here! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mobJk2uGqKhjh8k

Dope

thanks!

[@noobatlife8975]

I actually want it. I have an android phone though

[@chevaova]

Well Apple is coming with something similar in ios 17

[@logankoshenka]

I saw some pretty cool updates, I’m excited!

[@thedrenkemp124]

Love your channel? In the future or when ever u get the chance can u teach us how to create hotspots like door dash? Thank you because you really don’t have to.

[@logankoshenka]

Thank you! Help me understand - what do you mean hotspots?

[@thedrenkemp124]

@@logankoshenka yes I was referring to hotspots used in apps like doordash and postmates ( for the drivers) to kno what geographical area are giving out more orders

[@thedrenkemp124]

[@AlemaVincent-lx1eq]

Contacts,apps

[@developerios6096]

Hi logan the ui is not that bad. About the detail screen. The shapes are a great idea,(i d really like ti see how they were built), some work should be done in order to accomodate the contrast with the text, but i really liked the idea behind. But there s a big no: the additional tap required on contact button to call or message the person. I would build a hstack to display below the contact info such rapid actions: call, send a text message, email. At the moment, the contact UX in original app is really good to me. The charts were a good idea, with additional work this could became an amazing concept. But its good, the basics are there 😃

[@logankoshenka]

awesome feedback - it’s funny because I actually had an HStack for the contact actions but changed it haha I think the UX in the original app is great as well, this was just a fun concept to build. I appreciate your comment!
