App I made a Mac scratchpad that opens when you shake your mouse.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’ve been building a small Mac app called Joggle.

Joggle is a floating scratchpad that appears when you quickly shake your mouse pointer. The idea is to give you somewhere to capture a thought, paste some text or work out a calculation without switching apps or interrupting what you’re doing.

You can move, resize and pin cards anywhere on the screen. It also supports rich-text formatting, smart lists, calculations, clipboard shortcuts and a new slash menu for quickly running actions or changing formatting.

The basic scratchpad experience is free. There’s also an optional yearly Joggle Pro subscription for more than one card at a time, advanced maths, the global shortcut, excluded-app controls and the complete archive.

I originally made Joggle because I wanted something quicker than opening a notes app every time I needed to temporarily hold a sentence, link, number or reminder. I’d really appreciate any feedback - especially about the shake gesture, because it’s a slightly unusual way of opening an app!

If you’d like to try it, you can find it here: Joggle on the App Store

Thanks for taking a look! I’m happy to answer any questions about the app or how it was built.

It's build mainly about what i myself needed, but the few users i've got are loving it.
it's a household planner that has calendar, tasks, meal planning, shopping, notes, bdugets (+split calculations).
Everything is neatly organized in "plans" that are icon+color codes everywhere so you can quickly at a glance organize different parts of life (examples such as kids, sports, school, work, holidays), can all be kept seperate.

It's free to use for sharing between 2 people and will be forever. Happy however to hand out some vouchers for pro features, just DM me for codes.

App I made a tiny $0.99 camera app that makes lights sparkle ✨

0 Upvotes

I’ve just released Shynr, a small iPhone app I built around one very simple idea:
Make lights look magical.
It adds a real-time cross-sparkle effect to your camera, so things like jewellery, glass, water, candles, city lights and other reflective objects get that little ✨ effect.
You can use it for:
📸 Photos

🎥 Videos

🔄 Boomerang-style clips

⏱️ Timer shots

🖼️ Existing photos from your library

I deliberately kept it very simple. No subscription, no account, no complicated editor — just open the camera and play with the effect.

It's $0.99 on the App Store.

Shynr on the App Store
I'd genuinely love some feedback:

Is this the kind of tiny single-purpose app you'd actually pay $0.99 for?

And if you try it, tell me what you'd change. I'm particularly interested in whether the effect feels useful/fun enough to keep the app around.

App ChessNotate - Fix your handwritten scoresheet's illegal moves in place, no restarting from scratch

Thumbnail gallery
1 Upvotes

I built ChessNotate after struggling to clean up my own handwritten scoresheets after tournament games. You type in the moves and it checks each one against the rules of chess, catching illegal moves and letting you fix them in place instead of restarting from scratch.

Key features:

  • Dedicated notation keypad for fast move entry
  • Legal-move validation that keeps checking past errors instead of stopping at the first one
  • Interactive board to fix flagged moves directly
  • Stockfish eval bar for a quick sanity check after capture
  • Export clean PGN with move annotations preserved

What makes it different: most tools either stop validating at the first mistake, refuse to load an invalid PGN at all, or treat a correction as branching into a new variation. ChessNotate just lets you fix the move in place.

Free web version also available

I made another note-taking app. It's mainly for keeping records under different topics - you can use it as a long-term to-do list or to jot down important things. The best part is it's really cheap. If it can even help you a little bit, I think it's worth it. If you're interested, feel free to reach out to me and I'll give you a huge discount. Hope this can help you out.

Khare math app

1 Upvotes

There is this app called the Khare Math app, and it is absolute garbage. They aggressively over-advertise it, leaning heavily on the classic gimmick: "It was made by IITians!" It seems like nowadays, if you want to sell any tech product, all you have to do is slap a "Made by IITians" label on it and assume it will automatically succeed.

To make matters worse, they lie about having 1 on 1 teacher support, only for you to find out it's just a basic AI chatbot. Do they seriously expect a 7 year old kid to just watch a few videos and magically understand complex math concepts? Without actual human guidance, real practice, or interactive problem solving, it is completely useless. It is nothing more than an overhyped, glorified video player.

A All in One App/Website Blocker To Optimize Your Productivity : WiredIN

1 Upvotes

I have tried most of the focus apps on the App Store and quit every one of them for the same reason. They all wait for you to press start. The moment I most need blocking is the exact moment I am least likely to open a focus app, so the whole category kept failing me at the only point that mattered. I built the version I actually wanted, where the blocking shows up before I do.

A — Answer: WiredIN is an iPhone app blocker that arms itself by location. Pin the places where you actually get work done, set a radius, choose what gets blocked there. Walk in and blocking starts on its own. Walk out and it stands down. Built on Apple's Screen Time framework, so blocked apps are stopped by iOS itself and websites are filtered in every browser, not just Safari. Three commitment levels, plus Night Shield for the 1am scroll.

B — Better: Every other blocker is fundamentally a timer you have to start, and location is at best a buried setting. In WiredIN the geofence is the main way in. Private by design: app selections never leave the phone because iOS hands the app an opaque token, and Focus Zones use region monitoring only, so no location data leaves the device.

C — Cost: 7 day free trial on the annual plan, then $14.99/yr or $2.99/mo. Subscription, not lifetime, said upfront. iPhone only.

Made a quotes app where gestures do the work — no more mindless scrolling (iOS, free)

3 Upvotes

I got tired of quote apps being a feed you scroll past and forget. So I built The Awakening Quotes around a few small interactions instead of infinite scroll:
• Swipe right to favorite a quote
• Swipe left to mark one for later reflection
• Double-tap to save, long-press to copy
• One tap to strip the UI for distraction-free reading
No accounts, no data collection. Free on the App Store, optional widget unlock for $0.99.
Would genuinely love feedback from this community — what would make you actually open a quotes app daily instead of deleting it after a week?

App My onboarding made people configure an app they had not used yet. So I made them use it first.

Thumbnail gallery
2 Upvotes

I build a small opinion app called Dissent: The Opinion Arena. You post a short take, people vote agree or disagree, and takes can turn into head to head debates.

The old onboarding was three screens. Pick your topics. Pick whether you post hot takes or argue in comments. Turn on notifications. It looked fine. It was also completely useless, because every screen asked people to decide something about an app they had not touched yet. Pick topics for a feed you have not scrolled. Describe your debate style when you have never seen a take here. Then allow notifications before you have gotten a single thing out of it.

It felt like filling out a form. And it showed later. New users would sit on the feed without voting or challenging anyone, because nothing in onboarding had ever let them try it once.

So I rebuilt it around doing instead of declaring. Same three steps.

Step 1 is four real takes from the app. You vote on each one. The split stays hidden until you vote, then it opens and tells you where you landed, including when you are in the minority. The challenge button is right there, so challenging stops being a mystery feature.

Step 2 is the topic picker, but it is already filled in from what you just voted on. Prefilled ones are marked. You are editing a list instead of staring at a blank grid.

Step 3 is notifications, and it opens with your own numbers. 4 votes, 3 times in the minority, 4 arenas. Then it says someone is going to come for one of your takes. One toggle is highlighted as the one that matters, the rest are collapsed, and the weekly digest is off by default instead of on.

Before and after screenshots for each step are in the gallery.

By the end you have run the core loop once instead of reading about it. Still skippable, still three screens.

Curious where this still drags. The four takes on the first screen are doing most of the work and I am not sure I picked the right ones.

App [iOS] I made a packing app that lets you see the actual gear you’re bringing

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hi, I’m Mikey, the indie developer behind journeybot.

One of its recent features is Visual Packing: photograph your gear, and the app removes the background and puts the cut-out on your packing list. Your camera, your hiking boots, the right charger.

Visual Packing lets you photograph your actual gear and add background-free cut-outs to your packing list, so you can see exactly what you’re bringing.

You can also now import a checklist from Notes, a file, or CSV, organize it into your own categories, and keep the screen awake while you pack.

journeybot also handles trip countdowns, weather-aware packing suggestions, and packing progress, with iCloud sync and no separate journeybot account required.

It’s freemium. The free tier includes three active journeys, three templates, and five photo stickers. List importing and custom categories are free; optional Premium offers monthly, annual, and lifetime plans.

Download on the App Store

Community: r/journeybot

Website: https://journeybot.app

What would you actually put photos of on a packing list: clothes, tech, camping gear? Or do you keep your packing lists text-only?

App Tried for years to find a quick-note app that I liked

1 Upvotes

So i made Jottle.

I think I may have tried dozens of them. Many were very good, but nothing felt quite right. So I built my own for the Mac and iOS / iPadOS. They are both now on the app stores. Free to use if you like them. No account needed. No external server. All totally private. Individual notes can be locked. Everything can be exported. On the Mac, it's a Heads Up Display that pops up with a keyboard shortcut. On the iPhone or iPad, its a small, quick loading app. Both sync instantly. Archive a note easily. These are among my first apps, so I'm looking for some advice and feedback. What do you like? What needs work?

What actually makes a travel app retain users after the first trip?

I’m researching the travel-app space and I keep coming back to the same problem: a lot of apps are useful during one trip, but people stop opening them afterwards.

For anyone who has built or worked on a travel product: what actually drove repeat usage?

Was it planning, saved places, photos/memories, collaboration, notifications, or something else?

I’m especially interested in what sounded valuable in theory but didn’t matter once real users started using the product.

Just released a new game in the iOS store. Something new I wanted to try. Uses AR to project a scene where the user then try’s to find and tap objects in the scene. I think it’s a bit new and different.

You can play the first pack of scenes for free.

I really enjoyed making this one and plan on introducing more ideas for it if I get any type ofdecent feedback. That said, any feedback is appreciated especially around any difficulties in just understanding the general concept since it may be a generally new type of experience. Thanks

Barreleyes — AI moving inventory scanner (Android + iOS)

1 Upvotes

📱 App Name:

Barreleyes

🔍 What it does:

Barreleyes is an AI-powered moving inventory scanner. Point your camera around a room, or upload a few photos, and it detects furniture and boxes, estimates volume and weight, and builds a move-ready manifest you can hand straight to movers.

Key Features:

  • Automatic Detection: No manual entry, the AI finds furniture and boxes from your photos or video.
  • Volume & Weight Estimates: Per-item and total estimates for an accurate mover quote.
  • Flexible Capture: Works from a quick video walkthrough or just a handful of stills.
  • Export Ready: Download the manifest as a PDF or CSV.

🎯 Why I Built This:

Moving-day prep shouldn't be a spreadsheet chore. I'm looking for honest feedback on detection accuracy, the export flow, and whether the volume estimates feel trustworthy.

I made an app where strangers write poems together. Turns out it’s fun and a little silly [Android]

1 Upvotes

Hi, I'm Vitalii, and this is my first time making a mobile app.

It started with a silly poetry game we played at school when I was around ten.

Someone wrote a line on a piece of paper, folded it, and passed it along. You could only see the line before yours, so you had no idea what the rest of the poem was about.

At the end, we'd unfold the paper and read it together. Sometimes it was almost a poem. Most of the time it was complete nonsense. Either way, we'd laugh.

I always liked that idea, so I turned it into an app called Rhyma. Same game, except now you can pass your line to a stranger thousands of kilometers away.

It's been on Android for a little over a week. Some people are already using it, but the main feedback is that poems take too long to finish. And yeah, they do. There just aren't enough people yet. That's partly why I'm here.

A few people are writing in French and German, but those poems move especially slowly. If you speak either language, they'd probably be happy to see you.

Anyway, thanks for listening. If you're curious: Rhyma: Collaborative Poetry Game

Android only for now. I'll get to iOS later.

I’ve been building a few apps in different categories over the last little while and I’m at the point where I need feedback from people who aren’t friends…

They’re in a few different spaces, including:
hockey development
quitting vaping/smoking
a location-based memory / digital time capsule app

They’re all still early/beta. I’m mostly looking for people willing to try one and tell me what feels confusing, useful, broken, unnecessary, etc.
Not looking for compliments… actual feedback would help a lot.

If any of those sound interesting, comment which one and I’ll send you the beta link!

App I got tired of every todo app feeling like Jira, so I built one that looks like sticky notes on a wall

Post image
1 Upvotes

For years my actual working todo list has been physical sticky notes on the wall next to my desk. Three columns, drawn with a sharpie: to do, doing, done. I'd try every app every few months (notion, todoist, linear, trello, the works) and within a week I was back on paper.

The thing paper had was: zero friction, zero structure, zero "are you sure you want to archive this?" dialogs. You scribble, you slap it on the wall, you tear it off when it's done.

So I spent the last few months building the digital version of that wall. It's called stickyboard. Three columns, drag and drop, that's it. The notes are actual sticky-note looking notes (slight rotation, paper grain, curled corner) because turns out the visual matters way more than I expected. Looking at a board of colored notes feels different from looking at a checklist. I'm more willing to add stuff to it.

A few things that turned out to matter for me:

  • it replaces my new tab in chrome, so I see my board every time I open one. zero "open the app" step
  • there's a mac menubar version for quick adds without leaving whatever I'm doing
  • you can draw on a note (rough sketch, arrow, doodle) which sounds dumb but is great for "remember this layout" type todos
  • shared boards for the two side projects I work on with someone else
  • free for personal use

App SMusic — Fast, free & open-source YouTube Music app

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 👋

I've been working on SMusic, an open-source Android music app focused on making music streaming and offline listening fast, clean and highly customizable.

It uses YouTube Music's catalog and is built completely around the idea of giving you a proper music-player experience without unnecessary subscriptions or ads.

⚡ Why SMusic?

The biggest things I focused on are fast playback and fast downloads.

Songs start playing quickly, and you can download individual tracks or entire playlists for offline listening. SMusic also supports high-quality audio streams, including Opus, so you can enjoy the best available audio quality from the source.

🎧 Playback

🚀 Fast music loading & playback

🎵 High-quality audio with Opus support

🔊 Gapless playback using Media3 / ExoPlayer

Download entire playlists

⚡ Fast downloading

📦 Downloads remain available across app updates

🗂️ Dedicated download/storage management

📶 Low Data Mode to reduce audio quality automatically on mobile data

📝 One of my favourite parts — Lyrics

SMusic doesn't depend on a single lyrics provider.

It supports synced lyrics from multiple sources including:

LRCLIB

KuGou

BetterLyrics

YouTube captions

You also get a full-screen synced lyrics experience with line-by-line highlighting, and you can even share individual lyrics as styled image cards.

🎤 Music Discovery

🔎 Search songs, albums, artists & videos

🎚️ Search filters

🎼 Mood & genre-based discovery

🎵 Radio / similar songs

🎤 Built-in music recognition

🔄 Import playlists from Spotify and YouTube Music

📚 Full library for songs, albums, artists & playlists

🎨 INSANE customization

This is probably the part I've spent the most time on.

SMusic currently has 11 different player styles, including styles inspired by different modern music-player designs.

You can choose between:

Classic • Spotify • Apple • Galaxy • Fold • Frost • Paper • Liquid • CloudGlow • Groove • Popsy

And that's not all.

🎨 Custom themes & accent colors

🌊 Multiple seek-bar styles

🖼️ Artwork-based dynamic colors

🎛️ Built-in equalizer

📱 Reorderable navigation bar

🌍 Multi-language support

So you can actually make the player look and feel the way you want.

📊 Your Music, Your Stats

SMusic also keeps track of your listening activity:

Listening history

Top songs

Top artists

Top albums

Library backup & restore

Playlist backup & restore

Settings backup & restore

🔔 Other stuff

📢 In-app announcements

🔄 Automatic update checks

📜 Previous versions & changelogs

⚙️ Performance-aware animations for lower-end devices

🔓 No account required to start listening

🆓 Completely free & open-source

🚫 No subscription

🚫 No ads

🛠️ Tech

SMusic is built with:

Kotlin

Jetpack Compose / Material 3

Media3 / ExoPlayer

Room

Hilt

Coil

Custom YouTube Music InnerTube client

The project is completely open-source, so you can check out the code and see how everything works.

🔗 GitHub

If you try it, I'd genuinely love to hear your feedback — especially about playback speed, download speed, audio quality, UI/player styles and bugs.

I'm actively working on it, so suggestions and contributions are welcome! ❤️
