So I'm an Apple Developer. 🙂
There's a phrase I've always liked: "scratch your own itch." The best projects start small and personal. You build something you actually need, and if you get it right, it turns out other people needed it too.
So I scratched my own itch.
I wanted the daily Sefirat HaOmer count on my Apple Watch. Simple. Visible. No friction. I assumed this already existed. It didn't, at least not in a way that was free and did what I wanted.
So, working with Claude Code, I built SefirahWatch.
I submitted it for review and spent almost a week waiting for Apple to bless it. It finally went live on Day 8 of the Omer. Since then, I've pushed a couple of updates, and with version 1.2.0, it feels… complete.
It shows the daily count right on your watch face. It calculates nightfall based on your location. And once it's time to count, it nudges you until you do.
It's simple. It works. It solved my problem.
If it solves yours too, it's now in the App Store. Give it a try.
