Shipping native  apps with a little help from Grok @bots.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

Shipping five indie apps means a lot of App Store busywork, so I built Release Desk, a Grok Bot that runs my pre-submit checklist, watches App Review, and won't submit anything without my OK. It's now a public template for any iOS/Mac dev.

@melvindvivas Feels like right now Grok Bot content is the thing to be doing.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

I was going to move some routines from one Grok Bot to another to simplify some stuff and some how in the process the bot I was going to delete explained why it was not a good idea and was able to keeps its job 🤣

I think we are in the future and I am bad at HR.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@melvindvivas @bot Same. I don't think it has replied to me once when I have tagged it.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@WizZifnab Yes! A family plan would make a lot of sense.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@Only_21Mil Yes, all of my app work runs through my bots now, from building the apps to App Store submissions.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@testingcatalog Everything in one place is the way to go. Curious which app people end up using more.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@mrcreatech Yea that is the goal.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

I'm a visual person. So I had my chief Grok bot build me a calendar of every routine that is run, color-coded by bot, with a line marking when my usage resets.

Now when I'm almost out of usage, I can see what's scheduled before the reset and pause what can wait.

@CastorLabsDev @bot Live generated aliens sounds fun! Let's connect

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

Solo indie dev shipping iOS and Mac apps.

My Grok @bot team helps with everything, from building the apps to running the business.

Looking to connect with devs and anyone else using Grok bots.

Let's connect!

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@Botpacksdev @bot Probably the one that handles my App Store submissions.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@priyans23 @bot Release Desk and Usage Watch are two of mine, both public templates.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@madhugogineni97 Yes, iPhone, iPad and Mac for me. Even Apple TV now.

@klovsch That's awesome! 36 GB is huge 😆

[Texas Twins Dad @Texas_Twins_Dad]

Grok Bot organized all my files, filled out the forms, and cross-checked everything for my taxes. Here’s my tax filing assistant bot, built to handle complex filings.

Day 4 of posting the Apple connector workarounds until it is supported natively in Grok Bot.

Share this with your @bot and ask it to help you make it work.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@botusecases Exactly!

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

Hit 56% of my weekly usage this morning with days still left.

So I built a Grok Bot template for it: Usage Watch.

It maps all my bots' routines onto a color-coded calendar up to the reset, flags the biggest drains, and pauses them when I say so.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@watch_tsar That's exactly why I built it! Let me know how it works for you.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

@azamsharp Seriously, utility apps aren't much easier 😆

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

Going to have to try this 😆 so far all I get is spam.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Also, ask Grok @Bot to connect to your 𝕏 DMs. Best way to use it.

[Luis Barragan @luisbarragan]

Yes! Faster is huge when my bots are running builds all day 🙌

[Grok Bot @bot]

We've made some improvements to Grok Bot’s quality, polish, and speed.

Cards in chat have a new design with a cleaner layout.
