It's Never Too Late

[@BrandonButch]

Congrats dude! That’s awesome and I know your dad is proud 🙏

[@beardfm]

Appreciate that Brandon! 🙏🏻

[@buhizkewl7105]

This is the only channel I recommend to people that have Apple questions these days. Your heart is in this and it’s clear.

[@beardfm]

Thanks you for saying so 🙏🏻

[@Delyn]

File this under inspiration. Bro, to see you be so vulnerable and honest and literally put yourself out there is so inspiring! Thank you for being a teacher and more importantly thank you being authentic. Top 3 favorite creators even before this video

[@beardfm]

Thank you so much for that 🙏🏻 it's an honor to be in your top creators

[@chadpredovich1329]

I think this is the first video of yours I've seen, but I was really impressed and just subscribed. Thanks for sharing about your dad. My dad passed away this year and you're right, grief is weird. Keep up the good work!

[@beardfm]

I'm sorry to hear about your Dad. If and when you're ready, the book "The Other Side of Sadness" has helped a lot with processing grief. Thanks for joining the channel 🙏🏻

[@LoverOfTech]

Congrats Stephen. The loss of a parent is a tough one and you Dad would be proud. Great work

[@thomash2604]

I honestly love your channel Stephen! I’ll be honest, I don’t care too much for iOS shortcuts but the production value you provide makes me watch your videos anyway! You’ve built something truly incredible and honestly, well done! 👍 Congratulation on 100k - you truly deserve it!

[@GeetMadan]

This is such a heartfelt video dude Congrats!!🎉 I would love to join the community. I need someone to talk shortcuts with

[@jideveloper1164]

Losing an immediate family member is weird. I appreciate you saying that because that's how I feel too. The people who were with you from day one who are suddenly gone and life just keeps moving. Thank you for sharing.

[@cidmcotto]

Humble❤ Congrats!

[@CHADAFGHAN]

CONGRATS MAN YOU'RE A HARDWORKING GUY YOU DESERVE THIS & GOOD LUCK FOR THE FUTURE

[@ralphh2355]

Congratulations! Your hard work has paid off. Thank you for encouraging others.

[@GarbageGoober]

Keep it up man, well deserved! You're one of the only tech channels I keep up with because that's all you need

[@michaelsleen]

Even in a crowded niche, you stand out for your authenticity and helpfulness. You’re doing great, and I’ve been looking to you as an inspiration for my own channel throughout this year. Thank you!

[@UndecidedMF]

Congrats! And I agree 💯… I wish I had started a decade earlier, it’s definitely not too late to start a channel.

[@GT-ho6co]

Love your videos. You deserve your success. Genuine guy that wants to educate and entertain. Grief is weird and all the best to you and your family. Here’s to your next 100,000 on the way.

[@TonyPeoples-n6v]

Watching from Ireland 🇮🇪 what a genuinely nice guy this is! So nice to see someone post their story and inspires others to follow their passion. Wishing you so much luck brother

[@rogeroshea3490]

Congratulations very well deserved !

[@TeawithJann]

Congratulations. Love watching your videos, but I typically don't comment. Wanted to say thank you for creating, for sharing your growth, and for being vulnerable about your feelings. Sorry for your loss. I agree, loosing a parent is very difficult. Hugs.

[@beardfm]

Appreciate that very much, and thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻

[@michaelkork3197]

Congrats mr. beard!

[@HomeIsWhereTheSmartIs]

I’ve started in the last year or so, I just hit 500 subs and it feels gruelling right now but I’m doing just what you did, cracking on with it, putting the best content I can out on a regular basis around my busy home life. And I gotta say I appreciate seeing this video atm, keep doing great stuff 👏

[@heyitsdiggy]

This is awesome to see, congratulations 🎉

[@jrennickemd]

I loved this video. I just passed my 100th podcast/video and have had super slow progress but it’s encouraging to see your story. Well deserved 100k subs and thanks for making the content you do!

[@ddlevine]

Great video! Thank you for sharing all of that! Congratulations on reaching (or rather, surpassing) 100,000 KZbin subscribers!

[@atomique4040]

Oh Stephen you are so watchable and relatable and your love for tech comes through on all your videos , your success is well deserved and man you made cry with you , well deserved recognition congrats

[@131flojo]

Congratulations and thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos. I am a grandmother who loves tech and Apple products and have learned so much from your channel.

[@Simonal777]

Got to say so pleased to see you reach this milestone your videos are so great I recommend them to many, especially the ones who ask about shortcuts. On a personal level, I didn’t know your father, and to be honest I don’t know you other than via your channel but I know for sure your father would be extremely proud of you not just for the content but for your approach. Congratulations and here’s to the next celebration plaque. Thanks Simon

[@vandersteentim]

What a beautiful emotional video. Loved the ending. Thanks for your all your effort and time to create these video’s.

[@tomreid]

Congrats. Recently found your channel and it has been great for me. Slowly moving from Windows and Android, your vids are a great help

[@ModernDayTech]

Congrats bro! Well done.

[@beardfm]

Thank you bro! Appreciate it 🙏🏻

[@Goodtobloom]

Hey there! Huge congratulations! I just wanted to say how much your videos have helped me on my podcast journey-I only started about a month ago. You have a knack for explaining things clearly and thoroughly, which makes it so much easier. Thanks for all the awesome content you create! Here’s to you-this is just the beginning! 🎉

[@beardfm]

So nice to hear, I'm glad they've been helpful! 🙏🏻

[@doonytime]

What a fantastic, heartfelt, video. I'm a relatively recent subscriber and really appreciate the effort you put into all of your content. Congratulations; and on to the next 100,000...

[@savjag007]

Way to go Robert! Your content is awesome. And deepest condolences about your dad.

[@FutureNow]

So inspiring, man! I know how hard it can be to be a full-time video creator for your 9-5 and then make your own videos outside of work. Personally, I haven't been able to sustain both (i haven't posted to this channel in 3 years), but stories like yours definitely give me some motivation to pick it back up. And I don't even have kids!

[@easternv1lle]

Found your channel a few months ago this year when Brandon mentioned you in his shortcuts video (I forgot when). The fact that you went from around 50K to now has greatly impressed me with your effort to come up with new ideas every time. Congrats on your major milestone! I know how it feels after all that hard work 😆

[@farhan-app]

Congrats pal! I published my very first video 2 weeks ago, so happy I finally did it!

[@beardfm]

Congrats! It can feel like a long road, but it's worth it. Don't quit.

[@joeb30]

Congratulations. So very deserved. I love seeing people like you succeed.

[@FlavioSLeite]

Congratulations. I appreciate your work and I am using lot of shortcuts showed in your videos. I came to your channel when I was looking for home automation and now I've seen almost all the videos.

[@beardfm]

Love hearing what niche people are in and how they found the channel. Thank you for watching 🙏🏻

[@wajical]

Well done. Have appreciated your work. I have loved the shortcuts videos the most. But try to catch all your stuff.

[@pamkoakes]

So sweet and heartwarming. Congratulations! I wish you all the best.

[@mackenziemarceau1055]

You are really passionate about what you do and it shows. So, congratulations on the 100,000 subscribers milestone! I wish you success going forward. Great channel Stephen and for that, I am grateful, so thank you.

[@themikelawson_]

you're literally one of the only channels i watch religiously. thanks for starting. and thanks for inspiring us to go for it too! wishing you and the family nothing but the best in the years to come

[@dustinb7967]

Well deserved, Stephen. Your content shows you enjoy and care about making it. Well done!

[@JoelSharpton]

Congratulations, Stephen!! Love your channel (and your riverside content) and have learned a lot in both places. I’m a bit older, and a dad of four but I absolutely felt all of this with my own video journey. Thanks especially for sharing the vulnerability with your Dad’s loss. I lost my dad almost 3 years ago to Alzheimer’s.

[@beardfm]

Thanks for saying Joel, and sorry about your Dad. It's tough and changes how the world feels forever.

[@supereldian]

Congratulations! Your style and insight is what I enjoy about your videos!

[@jaroncole1088]

Well deserved, congrats to you 💯 You were the only channel I watched when I purchased the iPhone 15 and the capabilities of the usb-c port. I also enjoy the shortcut videos that you make so that I could add them to my phone.

[@smartlivingbyFelix]

Congrats man, you’re an inspiration. Keep on living your dream. I wish you and your family all the best.

[@beatrizherculanodeoliveira7935]

The first video I watched from your channel was the hour-long tutorial! Your content is amazing and it is inspiring me to make content about iPhone shortcuts, configs, development for iOS, and developer life-style! Thanks so much for this video!

[@beardfm]

Amazing to hear that 1-hour long video has helped so many! Thank you for watching 🙏🏻

[@sesomediagroup]

Congratulations, Bro. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I found your channel via your Riverside FM work … and got hooked into subscribing via your iPhone 15 USB-C review. That work was key to me putting more effort into my creative work, since the phone was the one thing I had with me all the time. And your video opened me up to creative possibilities. Thank you. 🙏🏾

[@beardfm]

Great to hear these videos helped with your creative endeavors! Thank you for being a part of this 🙏

[@HalfManHalfTech]

Congratulations 🎉 on the milestone It only gets better going forward

[@levyprincipal202]

Congrats!!!

[@cool-j7148]

BIG CONGRATS, I REMEMBER A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO WHEN U WERE STILL UNDER 50K SUBS THAT U WILL HIT 100K BEFORE THE YEAR RUNS OUT, I’M HAPPY TO SEE IT COME TO PASS 🥳🥳

[@beardfm]

haha it happened!! Thank you 🙏🏻

[@i.ivan0920]

Your channel is my favourite tech channel to watch!

[@Hondamaker]

Dammit Stephen, you had me all choked up when you talked about your parents. Congratulations on your milestone, and I’m sure there’ll be more to come! -Cyclone Jack

[@SamHarrison2099]

The fact that I only found your channel 6 weeks ago, but got genuinely emotional watching this. You're such a genuine guy and this comes across in your videos. I've been making videos about fantasy & scifi books on my channel for over a year, and just hit 1k subs and turned on monetisation last month. It's been a grind, but I love the tiny community I have built.

[@beardfm]

Thanks so much Sam, and good luck to your channel! Will head over and subscribe right now.

[@SamHarrison2099]

@@beardfm well if you ever need a book recommendation hit me up!

[@yuanjyechong8834]

I genuinely like your Shortcut video, this is how is and why i subscribe to you. Thanks mate

[@basmatiDR]

So proud of you my man, well done. Keep up the great work!

[@jeffsnead]

Congrats! One of my favorite Apple reviewers, tips provider, etc.

[@NoahKalina]

Congrats, Stephen. Well deserved and I expect you to grow even larger. I've been making videos for one year now and have lost 200 followers and expect to be at zero within three years.

[@beardfm]

Haha thank you for making me tear up and then immediately laugh within seconds. I'll be sure to unsubscribe from your channel to help you reach that goal.

[@ShehbazAfzal]

Congratulations bud, very well deserved 👏

[@Hansanaw]

4:40 wait are you crying 😭 now I’m crying. Congratulations mate. Here’s to 1 Million Subs 🎉

[@beardfm]

Oh definitely cried multiple times. Thanks for always being here!

[@LuisGaray]

Congrats bro! Nothing but GREAT content on this channel. I will continue to share it! 🎉❤

[@iiTzSTUTTA]

Huge Congratulations! @Stephen Robles

[@ErivesFilms]

Congratulations man! Your dad is proud of you and watching from above!

[@jpk.mp3]

love hearing the journey!

[@SlavsFreeTalk]

Stephen your channel & podcasts you have done ALWAYS have been a GO TO for me since I made the jump into the APPLE ecosystem in 2020. Funny thing is I didn't realize I watched you essentially grow. I always assumed you had been around for years. That just goes to show how great you have always been with the level of detail and care you put into your videos. To see you at 38 with this success gives me hope for my Channel, I am also a 38 year old with a handful of kids working a full time job and Making KZbin Content. 1 Year in and things are moving... albeit slowly... but moving. Thank you for all you do and the AMAZING content you consistently put out into the World.

[@fabledacademy]

Well deserved! Thank you for what you do

[@tbeesknees]

Well-deserved! You provide so much helpful info, and I just love your channel. Congrats! 🎉

[@beardfm]

Appreciate that! 🙏🏻

[@STCVideoShorts]

Congrats! Keep on making great videos. Your passion for the tech and the effort you put in shows in every video you make.

[@TrailBikeMike]

Your channel is pretty much the only one I use for Apple product recommendations as it is clear you understand the needs of consumers and you cover all the questions in my mind. A year back you mentioned you were going to do a leather iPhone 15 Pro case review and I asked in the comments if you could comment on the USB C port opening size (for larger cables), and you did. I have a Ryan London case on my 15PM and love it. Congratulations and thanks for the great content.

[@beardfm]

Thank you for those kind words, and it's getting harder to see all the questions and comments, but will always do my best to meet the needs and requests of you all 🙏🏻 thank you again!

[@TRGMC19]

Well deserved brother

[@rgaines23]

Awesome man. Thanks for your content and more importantly sharing some of your soul with us.

[@efontenette42]

Congrats 🎉 - well deserved

[@ZenSkorp]

Congratulations. Have subscribed after seeing some leather case reviews for the 15. Have loved the shortcuts videos, they helped me immensely. Stayed for everything else.

[@depotwest]

You do such a great job, Stephen, and more than anything, you come across as a genuine, helpful guy. Love your content and congrats on one of what will likely be many milestones you cross. Enjoy the journey, and thank you for the content.

[@beardfm]

Thank you for those words 🙏🏻 appreciate it

[@DanielEastwood-e3v]

congrats well done. prayers goes out to your dad as well. keep up the good work.

[@BrianMorettiTV]

Congrats on 100k! That’s exciting! I’m a recent subscriber and I’m super impressed with how consistently good your videos are. Very inspiring to keep going with my own channel. I’ve been at it for more than a decade and have quit multiple times. Like you said, you can’t change the past, so I just gotta find a way to keep getting better and stay consistent. Keep up the great work!

[@beardfm]

It can be hard at times for sure, just don't quit!

[@sreedharanbaskaradass9896]

Congratulations. Your videos have been extremely helpful. Thank you so much.

[@sookythehousecat]

Such a sweet-and typically informative-video. Congratulations!

This was a really awesome video. Congratulations to you and I hope nothing but continuing success follows you.

[@amir4646]

I’ve been following you since I joined Riverside and then I found your private channel and you became one of my favorites KZbinrs. Good luck.

[@chumandriy]

Hey Steven, greetings from Ukraine! I’ve been subscribed to your channel for about 3 or 4 months now. I stumbled upon it by chance through KZbin recommendations. I really enjoy how you present information in such a simple, clear, and kind way. Keep up the great work! I wish you to record a video about reaching 200K subscribers by 2026!

[@atrampabroad8318]

Congrats. Your channel is awesome, I turn to you for real, practical info.
