Since early this year I’ve been working on creating an app I wish I had during my daughter’s first year. So excited to now announce Milk Diary (@milkdiary.app), launching this fall with iOS 26!

I've just published a new video! It covers two ways to use matchedGeometryEffect() in SwiftUI: transitioning between views when one is removed and another added, and moving a selection marker by matching the geometry of a non-source view to a source.

The latter ignores case, but also ignores diacritics (cafe vs café), handles localized variants (ẞ → ss, etc), and is supported in SwiftData.
