Vibe Coding with Fast Models

This week, Federico and John kick off their holiday app and automation experimentation season a little earlier than usual with a mix of apps, automations, and services.

On AppStories+, Federico and John look ahead, considering the future of Shortcuts and automation.

We deliver AppStories+ to subscribers with bonus content, ad-free, and at a high bitrate early every week.
