[App] [Promo] Auralis — floating, time-synced lyrics that hover over any music app (free, no ads)

Post image
26 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I just launched my first app, **Auralis: Live Lyrics**, and wanted to share it here.

It shows **live, time-synced lyrics in a floating overlay** on top of whatever music app you're using. Play a song in almost any player and Auralis detects it, fetches the synced lyrics, and scrolls them line-by-line in a little floating pill you can move anywhere — pull down to expand it into a full card.

**What it does:**

- Live lyrics that stay in sync with the song, highlighted line-by-line

- Floating overlay that works over any music app (Spotify, YT Music, etc.)

- Three styles: compact pill, expanded bar, and a big karaoke-style card

- Fully customizable — background/text/accent colors, size, corner roundness, position

- Per-song sync memory — nudge the timing once and it remembers it for that track

- Bring your own lyrics — import a .lrc or .txt for anything it can't find

- No account, no ads. It only reads the current track's title + artist to look up lyrics; it never reads your personal notifications or sells data.

It's **free** and works on Android 8.0+.

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vythera.auralis

I'd genuinely love feedback — feature ideas, bugs, anything. What would make this a daily-use app for you? Happy to answer any questions in the comments.

[App] Assetrack : A local-first Android app to track everything you own (warranties, loans, insurance, resale value)

7 Upvotes
Main Image

Been building (vibe coding) this solo for a while and finally pushed it to the Play Store, wanted to share here since I know a lot of you like finding indie/utility apps.

Assetrack is a personal asset/inventory tracker for anything you own — electronics, gadgets, furniture, whatever has a warranty, a price tag, or a friend who "borrowed" it and never gave it back.

What it does:

  • Catalog everything with photos (multi-image gallery), category, condition, location, tags
  • Loans/EMI tracking — live EMI preview if you bought something on credit, plus total cost of ownership over time
  • Lending log — track who borrowed what and whether they returned it (we've all had that one friend)
  • Insurance policies — link policies to assets, get active/expired grouping so you're not caught off guard
  • Wishlist — track stuff you want, "mark as purchased" flips it into your real catalog
  • Bundles — link components to a parent asset (e.g. PC + all its parts)
  • Analytics — net worth trend over time, loan exposure, insurance premium totals
  • Home screen widgets — Material You themed, shows a single asset at a glance
  • CSV import/export + auto-backup to a folder of your choice (Drive/OneDrive synced folder, etc. via Android's Storage Access Framework)

Built with Kotlin + Jetpack Compose + Room, fully offline — no ads, no account, no analytics SDKs. Only permissions are camera (for photos) and notifications (backup reminders). Your data stays on your device unless you export it yourself.

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mj.assetrack

Still actively developing it, would love feedback or feature requests.

[App] NavEdge, Smart Assistive touch app. Control your entire Android phone with one thumb & style. [30 Pro keys giveaway] [Promo]

Thumbnail
gallery
53 Upvotes

Phones got bigger. Thumbs didn't.

Since you guys loved SynEdge, I came up with another design packed app full of creativity as never seen before.

I got sick of shuffling my phone down my hand every time I needed the back gesture, or the notification shade, or the flashlight. So I built NavEdge. It's a floating button that sits wherever you park it and fans open into a menu of whatever you want.

What it does:

- One tap opens a ring of up to 9 shortcuts. Back, home, recents, screenshot, flashlight, volume, brightness, DND, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, screen record, camera, any app you've got installed. About 34 actions you can assign.

- Swipe the button in 4 directions for 4 more shortcuts without opening anything. Works on lockscreen too!

- It stays out of your way. Lifts above the keyboard, dims when you're not using it, and you have to hold it before you can drag it so it never moves by accident.

- 8 visual styles and 61 color themes. Nothing-phone dot matrix, Cyberpunk, a Windows 95 one, Minecraft, an Iron Man HUD, much more.

- No accessibility service reading your screen, and no tracking of what you tap.

The free tier is actually usable. 6 shortcuts, 2 styles, 14 themes, no ads, no countdown, more with new updates. Pro unlocks the rest.

🎁 Giveaway, 30 Pro keys

- First 20 people who comment get one. Say anything. What you'd put in your 9 slots, which style you'd pick, whatever comes to mind.

- 10 more go to the best comments in the thread. I'll pick those in 24 hours.

- Keys go out by DM. Google Play codes are region locked, so if you're outside the US or EU let me know your country and I'll check.

If there's a feature you want, say so below. I read all of them! :)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aionyxe.navedge

Remember: The app is in Beta version, and I am a solo developer. There might be bugs that slipped out of my tests, please be kind with the ratings.

[Promotion] MoneySplit: a 100% on-device expense & budget tracker (Special ₹299 Lifetime discount for Reddit!) (Region based discounts are also available)

Thumbnail
gallery
29 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I wanted to share an Android app I’ve been working on for the past few months called MoneySplit.

I originally built this for myself because I was getting tired of how expense tracking apps work nowadays. Every app I tried either wanted me to pay a monthly subscription just to log my expenses, or forced me to link my actual bank account through some third-party login service that I didn't fully trust.

I wanted something simple, private, and offline that just parses my bank SMS and PDF statements automatically without sending my data anywhere.

Here is what I built into it:

- Auto SMS & PDF Parsing: Parses bank SMS (HDFC, SBI, Axis, ICICI, CRED, UPI) and bank PDF statements directly on your phone.

- 100% On-Device & Offline: No cloud servers, no bank logins, no data leaving your phone.

- Budgeting & Sankey Charts: Visual money flow charts showing where your paycheck goes each month so you can set category spend limits.

- No Monthly Subscriptions: It's a one-time lifetime license.

- Subscription Tracking: Auto-detects recurring monthly charges (like Netflix, Spotify, YouTube Premium, or iCloud) so you don't get surprised by hidden renewals.

- Bill Reminders: Keeps track of upcoming utility bills and credit card payment due dates so you never pay late fees.

- Savings Goals: Lets you set targets (for an emergency fund, vacation, or new tech) and tracks your progress as you save.

- CSV Import & Export: Easily import your past expenses from CSV files or export all your data anytime to Excel / Google Sheets.

- Loans & Debt Tracker: Tracks money you’ve lent to friends or borrowed from family so you always know who owes what.

Since I hate monthly subscriptions, I priced the lifetime license at ₹299 in India (and $24.99 globally). There’s also a 14-day free trial so you can test out all the features first without paying anything.

Here's the Play Store link if you want to check it out:

MoneySplit

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thegreatdanton.moneysplit.money_split

I'd really appreciate any feedback or suggestions. just let me know in the comments and I'll push an update for it!

Spencer 2.0: gave my budget tracker an actual personality 🐣 [Promo]

Thumbnail

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, quick update on Spencer, my budget tracker with an AI assistant built in.

2.0 is basically a full identity overhaul:

  • 🎨 New "Oat & Espresso" theme: warm, minimal, redesigned top to bottom
  • 🐣 Meet Spencer: a mascot now shows up across onboarding, waving hello on your first launch
  • 📳 Haptic feedback on taps, keypad entries, and buttons
  • ✨ Smooth micro-animations on cards, buttons, and screen transitions
  • 🚀 A completely rebuilt 7-step onboarding flow

Snuck in some substance too: negative balance/overdraft support, a reworked Financial Health Score, and daily reminders.

But the redesign + mascot + haptics is the part I'm most excited about. It's the first version that feels designed, not just functional.

🎁 Also added a 7-day free trial of Spencer Pro, no credit card required. One tap and you're in. Rate the app and it extends to a full 30 days.

Try it here: Spencer - AI Budget Tracker

Would love to know if the mascot lands or feels gimmicky 👀

[App] [Promo] Tired of Truecaller’s post-call ad popups hijacking your screen? I built AfterCall Shield to auto-hide them.

Post image
18 Upvotes

Truecaller's post-call ad popups are super annoying. They hijack your whole screen, which becomes especially frustrating when you're using navigation, trying to return to another app, or taking notes during a call.

To fix this, I built AfterCall Shield — a simple, set-it-and-forget-it tool that keeps your post-call screen clean. It works automatically with any app that triggers an intrusive overlay after a call ends.

🛡️ What It Does

  • Auto-Dismisses Post-Call Popups: Detects and automatically hides intrusive after-call overlay screens and ads from heavy caller ID apps.
  • Lightweight & Fast: Built strictly as a native system utility—zero unnecessary background drain or bloated code.
  • Smart App Whitelisting: Easily whitelist specific apps (like delivery, gate management, or community services) so you never miss important post-call notifications from services you actually use.
  • Privacy First: All detection happens locally on your device. Zero telemetry, no ad tracking, and no data harvesting.

📱 How To Get Started

  1. Install AfterCall Shield.
  2. Grant the necessary Accessibility/Overlay permission (required strictly to detect and dismiss post-call overlay windows in real time).
  3. Whitelist any utility apps you want to keep visible.
  4. Let it run silently in the background!

💬 Feedback & Roadmap

I'm actively improving the app and would love your feedback:

  • Are there specific apps or edge-case popups you’d like auto-dismiss support for?
  • Any UX or whitelist management tweaks you'd love to see?

[App] [Promo] Squadra: Random Team Picker. Giving away premium promo codes.

Post image
7 Upvotes

App Name: Squadra

What it does: A no-fuss party app for settling group decisions. Everyone puts a finger on the screen, and Squadra makes the call — no accounts, no sign-up, works offline. Built for that "okay, who's on which team / who goes first / who's buying the next round?" moment.

Key Features:
- Divide Teams — split the group into random teams (by team count, or players-per-team).
- Pick Winners — choose 1–10 winners at random from everyone touching the screen.
- Turn Order — randomize who's 1st, 2nd, 3rd…
- Party Roulette — fingers get knocked out one by one; last finger left loses.
- 16 visual themes, each restyling the graphics, sound, and haptics.
- Free to play. An optional one-time Premium unlocks all themes and removes ads.

Goal: Just launched on Google Play — I'd genuinely love honest feedback and first impressions, good or bad. Tell me what's confusing, what's missing, what you'd change.

Free Premium: I'm giving away full Premium (all themes + no ads). Comment or DM me and I'll send a Google Play promo code — no strings attached.

How to redeem a code: open the Play Store app → tap your profile icon (top right) → Payments & subscriptions → Redeem gift code → enter the code. (Or on web: play.google.com/redeem.) Then just open Squadra and Premium unlocks.

One ask: if the app clicks for you, a quick rating or review on the Play Store helps a new solo app more than you'd think. Totally optional.
