#12You could make a version for Android that uses as much processor as possible to heat up the device, and especially Galaxy devices, to actually warm the users' hands.
Hahahhaha! Yes, please!

A "hand warmer" app, somebody has to have made one already.

#16Great app.
And wow, Apple has really nailed their ecosystem. Took me 3-4 secs to install on my phone, for it to also appear on my watch in all its fiery glory.

#17looks cool, are you planning an Android version? what was the biggest challenge in making this?
Hadn’t really thought about it tbh, maybe. Depends how fussy Android widgets and the watch stuff (which is the challenge. iOS widgets are a pain and doing any dev pairing with Xcode and a watch… lets just say I’m glad it’s all on fire…)
I had a similar situation with one of my apps. I decided not to; Android ecosystem is a bit horrible as a developer, and also Play Store users don't tend to pay for apps. Since then, Google has cleaned up the Play Store a bit so maybe things are different now but still... nothing eats the dev ecosystem for building iOS, WatchOS etc apps.

In both cases you pay for the energy used, it's just that there are many more steps to get that energy to your watch!
