    Can developers create new gestures for Apple Vision Pro?

    Hi everybody, I'm no developer, but I was wondering: with actual API and whatever Kit Apple shares with them, is it possible to create new gestures for Apple Vision to recognize? For instance, make a fist to close an app, or swipe left or right with two fingers to undo or redo, stuff like that.

    iOS Search Ads vs Fake reviews - Fake reviews win!

    With 8,000,000,000 downloads you would think that by now Apple would have fixed issues such as broken search and fake reviews. Some instances are breath taking from a developer's point of view. Example. If I search for "Chess" I get "Chess-Chess With Friends" at No2 that has 1000s of fake...

I am most definitely not a developer so please do not expect expert troubleshooting help from me. If you run into an issue I might be able to help, but...
