Since Apple will stand on a virtual stage tomorrow and tell us how much they love, value, and appreciate third-party developers, here is an alphabetical list of iOS apps that I depend on - from solo developers, small companies, and giant world-eating ones, too.

1Password, DEVONthink, Day One, Drafts, Dropbox, Due, Fantastical, Fastmail, Firefox, Google Maps, Home+, Instapaper, Noom, OmniFocus, Overcast, PCalc, Pins, Plexamp, Pushover, Reeder, Sonos, Spotify, SwiftScan, The Athletic, Trello, Tweetbot, WolframAlpha, YouTube Music

I want to be crystal clear about the value these apps (and many others) provide. Without them, I would not own an iPhone. Or an iPad. Or an Apple Watch. I would not have purchased an iPad Magic Keyboard. Or any number of first-party Apple Watch bands.

I would not own three Apple TVs. (Well, only one is still in use. The other two are in a closet after being swapped out for Android TV last Summer. But that's another blog post.)
