## 2026-07-06 — review: analogtv-full-simulation
Graduated from find captured 2026-07-06, source: r/macapps.
Hero: reused the find's hero.jpg (App Store og card, 1200×630) — App Store screenshots weren't extractable via curl, and the promo card reads cleanly at grid size.
Category: video (new — no existing category fit a media/video creative app; should recur for video/media tools, and category pages auto-generate).
Fact-check: verified against the App Store listing (Alastair Bor / Ambor). The find held up and was undersold — it's not a filter but a physics-based simulation of the whole analogue chain (camera tube → composite encoding → RF → CRT phosphor) across 14 standards (the find named 6; added NTSC-4.43, PAL-60, SECAM-L, D-MAC/D2-MAC, 405-line/819-line, and confirmed the Apollo lunar SSTV + field-sequential color), plus 8 phosphor types, 4 camera-tube models, a service menu, virtual magnet/degauss, 14 live test patterns, teletext, NDI I/O, Metal 60fps, and arcade-game sources. Corrected commercial facts into the review: $4.99, Mac-only macOS 14.6+, $9.99 NDI in-app purchase, Photo & Video, v2.6 updated this week.
Amazon: n-a (software).
## 2026-07-06 — review: powerhouz-starship-home-dashboard
Graduated from find captured 2026-07-06, source: Brett Terpstra.
Hero: reused the find's hero.jpg (App Store og card).
Category: home (new — a HomeKit/smart-home dashboard doesn't belong in the Mac-desktop-UI "interface" bucket; should recur for smart-home apps).
Fact-check: verified against the App Store listing (Zysco). The find held up and undersold the reach — it runs on SIX platforms (iPhone iOS 17+, iPad, Apple Watch watchOS 10+, Apple TV tvOS 17+, Mac macOS 14+ Apple silicon, Vision Pro visionOS 1+), not four. Confirmed the 26 "systems": HomeKit accessories + cameras, surveillance mode with sci-fi video filters, Calendar/Reminders, weather, Night Stand sleep via Apple Health, activity rings + biometric telemetry, comms (call/text/FaceTime incl. emergency services), energy automation, widgets. Free with a $1.99 Premium tier; Lifestyle category; v7.04 (Jun 8); developer states no data collected. The find's "red-alert mode" phrasing wasn't confirmed by the primary listing, so the review describes the surveillance/alert theming without asserting that specific named feature.
Amazon: n-a (software).
