Hi everyone!

My name is Alex, I’m an iOS developper, from Genoa (Italy) and I started to work for GoodBarber in September after 2 months of internship.

My passion for the development began when I was in high school. My parents gave me my first iPhone, and since I could not change the background image, I began to do research how to customize my phone. In this way I discovered the jailbreak ... and the rest is history.

Some people know me as MPow in the jailbreak scene, I love to make jailbreak tweaks and apps for iOS.

Right now I'm studying IT at the University of Genova, and I live and work in Ajaccio, for GoodBarber of course.

What am I doing at GoodBarber ?

During my internship I developed the My GoodBarber app, for iOS. Now I joined the team to work on the iOS Beautiful Apps engine.

What’s your job? What’s your hobby? What do you do when you’re not programming?

To answer I need to quote this tweet:

“What’s your job?” Programming. “What’s your hobby?” Programming. “What do you do when you’re not programming?” Think about programming.

Siri Actions: ask your GoodBarber iOS app for its latest article or video

Siri Actions now answers two new questions: the latest article and the latest video in a section of a GoodBarber iOS app. Siri names the item and offers to open it by voice. They reach every app with its next store update. Siri Actions is the set of questions a GoodBarber iOS app answers out loud, for newspapers, radio stations, schools, organizations and any app that publishes content. Its first question, "What's new", gives an overview of your home screen. When we launched it in September 2026, we said the next one would be the latest article in a section. Here it is, and the latest video comes with it. Each goes straight to one item and offers to open it. Your audience goes from a question to the article in a single conversation, without searching for it.
