Welcome back to App Stories.

Today's episode is brought to you by Memberful.

I'm John Voorhees and with me is Federico Vitechi.

Hey, Federico. Hello, John. How are you? I'm having a good day. I'm having a good day. It's amazing to me that we are in October and it is hot outside here in North Carolina. This is my, my, this is the, John is still amazed that he no longer lives in the cold Midwest. I know. Yeah. This time of year, you know, the trees change colors, even though it doesn't get cold. That's, that was a revelation for me. That's my... They can do that. Trees can do that. Turns out. They can't. But usually, I always thought it was because it was freezing cold in the north. But here, it happens in the south, too, even though it's not yet very cold.

But enough of the weather, Federico.

We have a really good topic today, I think.

But before we get to that topic, I want to put a call out to our listeners for an app recommendation.

Oh, fun, because I also have a hardware recommendation. So we're both putting

out requests. I like it. Okay. Well, let me, let me start this off by asking for, I want an app that does

great gradients. And the reason I want this, now, you and I have talked about ShareShot, and it does a

fantastic job with its gradients

that it puts in the background of screenshots that it frames in hardware. And I like those so much

that I would like something that's a lot like that app, but that doesn't do the screenshot part of it.

I just want to make really nice gradients so I can put other stuff in front of it,

whether it's a, you know, maybe it's a, maybe it's a video that I, that I put together for our

YouTube channel or, or, you know, or for reels or something. I just want to be able to create

really nice gradients easily without having to become a gradient creation expert in Photoshop.

I want something that has some like very simple dials and controls that let me pick

colors and pick, you know, the way the gradient looks and that kind of stuff without having

to really understand the underlying math or whatever it is that's happening.

And the problem I'm having is that I go looking for these apps.

And there are a lot of gradient apps on the App Store.
