On Keeping Around Old Apps

Most of the apps I use are in active development and regularly receive new features. I like it that way because it keeps things fresh and fun. But there are some staples in my setup that haven’t been updated in years, including one of my most important tools: my budgeting app.

In the Club MacStories Monthly Log, I wrote about the considerations that go into the decision whether to stick with an aging app or replace it. It’s a question I ponder often but have never formally thought through until now. If you’re like me and wrestle with this issue sometimes, I invite you to check out the column.

AppStories

I had the privilege of being a guest on this week's episode of AppStories. My thanks to Federico and John for having me. It was a really fun discussion that included how and why I track different things in my life, my evolving approach to journaling, and my day-to-day use of the Apple Vision Pro as my primary computer. I also made everyone listen to me talk about Mello Yello in the members-only pre-show.

If you're into apps, technology, and Apple, I think you'll love AppStories. And if you enjoy reading what I write about here, well, this is a lot like that, but in spoken form and with better jokes courtesy of Federico and John. You can listen to the episosde in any podcast player or watch the video version on YouTube now.
