1. Install the ChatGPT app on your Android Phone.

2. Open it and start a session in "Work" mode.

3. Prompt something like "Create an Android app that does XYZ, provide it as APK".

4. Download and install the APK.

5. Keep on iterating on the app by prompting stuff like "Now add feature XYZ" or "XYZ doesn't work, fix it.". It then always creates a new APK which you can download and update your installed app with.

Yes, I used it to track WIFI signals and download/upload speeds over a period of two days. It stored the results in a log file and I then let ChatGPT inspect the log file. Based on that, I then ordered a WIFI extender. Now I have the perfect WIFI at our (permanent) camping spot. :) Didn't use the app afterward anymore.

Idk, can I do that with Codex on my phone? "Build app to control my specific Soundbar model" and then it just builds it while I'm chilling on the sofa with my phone in the hand?

Just simple throwaway apps for myself. For example, an app to control my soundbar. Or an app that helped me figure out which WIFI hotspot to use for better internet during camping. It's not that deep :)

Yes, you can iterate on the app and ChatGPT Work will then create new versions of the app.

If something in the UI of the app looks weird, you simply take a screenshot and ask ChatGPT to fix it. Or what I also like to do is add a logging functionality to the app. If something goes wrong, I then just upload the log to ChatGPT so that it can fix it.

I recently figured out that I could use ChatGPT Work on my Pixel Phone to build native Android apps. It builds the app and you can then directly download/install the APK. So now I just build small utility apps on-the-go whenever I need them :)

The AQ2 community perceived CS as way too slow though. No wonder when you are used to strafe jumping through team jungle and urban :-)

congratulations on launching! we created a website builder for nft artists called butiq.art where we will test the simplehash api in the next weeks.

on a side note, if you ever need nft data for the tezos blockchain, feel free to shoot me a message. i developed an nft indexer that covers that chain very well.

I think people with enough experience in software development know quite well if the code they are currently writing is going to be testable or not.

In Germany they are tracking down clusters. As a random person you won't get tested, unless you visited a risky region, had contact with an infected person or your doctor orders a test for you. As a German, this strategy makes sense to me.
