Native macOS client replacing the sluggish App Store Connect web UI with local AI.
Strengths
- •Local-first architecture ensures sales data never touches third-party servers or clouds.
- •On-device AI drafts review responses privately without sending text to external APIs.
- •Native SwiftUI performance beats the sluggish App Store Connect web interface significantly.
Weaknesses
- •macOS exclusivity excludes Windows developers and teams needing shared web-based access.
- •Depends entirely on Apple's API stability and rate limits for data syncing.

Post Description
Every morning I'd open App Store Connect in Safari, enter my password for the millionth time, then wait 8 seconds for the dashboard to load and continue fumbling around for what I needed. Everything took too many clicks and way too long to load.
I did this for years and got tired of it. Good thing Apple provided API access for all this data. So I finally built the app I wanted, just the way I liked. Fast, keyboard-friendly navigation, data syncs and gets stored only on the local device.
Meet AppDesk — a native macOS client built with SwiftUI for App Store Connect. Everything runs locally — no intermediary servers, no cloud sync, credentials stored in the macOS Keychain.
What it does: - Sales & revenue charts with period-over-period comparison - Subscription metrics: MRR, churn, trial conversion, billing retries - Review management with on-device AI-generated responses - Credentials stored in macOS Keychain
Would love feedback from other indie devs.

Upload App Store Screenshots Directly from Figma to App Store Connect
It removes the boring middle step — pick frames in Figma, validate sizes, preview store pages and push straight to App Store Connect with smart ordering and multi-locale support. Not groundbreaking if you're already scripting with Fastlane, but the one-click Figma → App Store UX is genuinely useful for small teams and marketers who hate manual exports; I’d want clarity on API limits and how it handles complex localization pipelines before buying.
