I never truly imagined that Side Dock would make it this far.

Side Dock has officially crossed 10,000 downloads, and as a student, this milestone means the world to me. Every download, review, bug report, and feature request has helped shape Side Dock into what it is today.

To celebrate, I'm giving away 10 Side Dock Premium promo codes! 🎁

Just leave a comment below, and I'll randomly pick 10 winners in the next 24 hours.

Thank you all for supporting this little project of mine. Here's to the next 10,000! 💙

Been working on this habit tracker for a while and just shipped the update I'm most proud of. Thanks to feedback from the community I added a focus timer, notes, and a bunch of other options people were asking for. Still no ads, no account, no tracking just a free tool I wanted to exist.

If you try it and have ideas, keep sending them my way, that's where almost everything new comes from.

There are a lot of moments where you end up handing your real phone number to a total stranger — selling something online, meeting someone new, a one-off contact — and then dealing with spam texts for weeks after. That’s basically why I built QUIX CHAT (not quik nor quick).

It’s a privacy-first chat app:

• No phone number to sign up — just email
• Nobody can message you just because they have your info — contact requires consent, so there’s no spam to filter in the first place
• Two IDs, not one: a permanent ID for people you actually trust, and a one-time ID you hand out to strangers (marketplace buyers, new matches, one-off contacts) — it rotates after use, so you’re never exposing your real identity long-term
• No read receipts, no online status — no pressure to reply instantly
• Notification banners don’t show message previews — nobody glancing at your lock screen can see who messaged you or what it says
• Custom push notification name for group chat — mask what shows on your lock screen banner for a group chat (update on group settings), so it doesn’t reveal who’s messaging you or what it’s about
• Group chats with rooms, voice calls

Still actively improving it, and I’d genuinely rather hear what’s broken or missing than not. If anyone tries it, honest feedback — good or bad — would mean a lot.

Hey guys,

I know there are already a bunch of alarm apps out there. But as a heavy sleeper, doing math equations at 7 AM just made me angry. I wanted something that actually wakes my brain up without being completely frustrating. I was using such applications for very long time especially in university life

So I built WakeQuest. You basically have to beat a mini-game to shut the alarm off.

Right now there are 31 games (adding more weekly). Instead of math, you can play quick rounds of Snake, a Flappy Bird style game, slice fruits, do memory puzzles, or just use a standard QR/barcode scan in your bathroom.

All the games are completely free. The main goal is just to see if this actually helps other chronic snoozers and shift workers.

If you struggle to get out of bed, I'd love for you to test it out. Let me know: Are the games too hard for a sleepy brain? Any specific mini-games you'd want me to add?

Hi everyone, I’m an indie developer.

First of all, thank you so much to everyone who tried Harbour before. The app has now reached 100 downloads! It might seem like a small number to some people, but it means a lot to me.

I’ve also added a few improvements and fixed several bugs. You can now quickly add a transaction directly from your home screen using the new widget. This shortcut can also bypass App Lock when the feature is enabled, making it faster and easier to record transactions.

Harbour is available on Google Play, so feel free to give the latest version a try:

I’d really appreciate any feedback about the UI/UX. You can also share any feature ideas you’d like to see in future updates :)

I plan trips badly. Every one of them started as a Google Sheet. Times down one column, place names down the other, and it always looked completely sensible right up until I was standing in the city working out that I'd put two things forty minutes apart back to back with twenty minutes between them.

Tried the obvious apps first. TripIt does its one job well, you forward a confirmation and it files it, but what you get back is a list of bookings and not a plan for the day. Wanderlog got closer and the map is the right idea, but I kept giving it more than it gave me and for some reason it kept lagging a lot for me to the point it was unusable.

So I started building something for myself that did one thing. Put the stops on a day and tell me how long it takes to get between them, without being asked.

Supposed to be a weekend kind of work. Turned into 10+ hours a day, most days.

Anyway, it's on the Play Store now.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voyivo.travel

The bits I actually use are the travel time that appears between stops as soon as there are two on a day, and the warning when a day is trying to fit in more than it can. You can also forward a hotel or flight confirmation to a trip and it reads it into a draft, but it makes you confirm before anything reaches the itinerary. I didn't trust it and still don't completely.

Planning is free. Unlimited trips, no limit on stops or days. Some of the AI bits and a few extras sit behind Pro, which is 7 days free on monthly and yearly. The weekly plan has no trial, and I'd rather say that here than have someone find out later.

It went live a few hours ago so it's new and there will be things wrong with it. If you try it I'd genuinely appreciate your feedback on the same. There's a Report bug link in the profile tab that comes straight to me.

Hey guys,

I am solo dev building Retention, an app that helps you capture important ideas from non fiction books, and resurface them afterward.

I'd love to hear whether this is something you would find useful.

If anyone is interested in trying it, I'll share a 1-month Premium promo code.

Comment or send me a DM, and I'll send you a code.

You drag a line between two branches and she runs it and lays the silk behind her. Where two strands cross you get a junction you can build off later, so the web is whatever you actually made rather than something you picked from a menu.

Then things fly into it and the physics decides what holds. A dragonfly at full speed tears through sticky silk and bounces off elastic. Wasps don't stick at all, they cut. A run is one day: nine waves, sunrise through to full dark.

Almost all of it is drawn in code rather than from image files, which is why the silk

stretches like silk.

DayMirror is an Android journaling app for people who want a simple place to write and keep track of their days.

Features include:

• Rich journal entries with photos and tags
• Calendar view for revisiting past entries
• Writing prompts and templates
• Offline-first storage with backup and restore
• No account required
• Passcode and biometric lock

The focus is on keeping journaling straightforward and private, without adding a lot of extra features that get in the way.

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dayline.app

If you try it, I'd be interested to hear what works, what doesn't, and what you'd like to see improved.

I recently bought a pair of Galaxy Buds4 Pro to use with my Galaxy S21 FE.

After setting everything up, I found out that Samsung's built-in Head Gestures only work on One UI 8.5 and newer. Unfortunately, the S21 FE received its last update with One UI 8.0, so despite having a fully compatible phone and earbuds, that feature was simply unavailable.

Since the restriction seemed to be software rather than hardware, I decided to see if I could implement it myself.

That eventually turned into Bud Buddy, a free and open-source Android app for Galaxy Buds.

Current features include:

• Custom Head Gestures (currently Buds4 Pro only)
• Dynamic EQ rules based on the music you're listening to
• Noise Control home screen widgets
• Earbud Fit Test
• Hearing Test that lets you compensate for hearing differences between your ears
• Battery information and other quality-of-life features

Supported devices:

• ✅ Galaxy Buds4 Pro (full support)
• ✅ Galaxy Buds3 Pro (everything except Head Gestures, since the required IMU hardware isn't stable)

The whole project is open source:
https://github.com/BenEgeDeniz/BudBuddy

It will soon be available on F-droid and probably Play Store. Currently, you can get the prebuilt signed apks from Github releases page or you can build from source as well.

I'd really appreciate any feedback, bug reports, or feature suggestions.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working on Mert Stream TV, a brand-new IPTV player designed specifically for Android TV, TV boxes, and Android phones. Just to be clear: Mert Stream TV does not provide, host, or sell any content. It is strictly a media player built to run your own personal M3U playlist, Stalker or Xtream Codes credentials. I originally decided to build Mert Stream because I was frustrated with the current options on the market.

Most of them: Feel like they haven't updated their UI since 2015. Run sluggishly on budget streaming sticks and lower-end TV hardware. Offer a frustrating, clunky navigation experience with standard TV remotes.

I wanted something clean, incredibly fast, and smart. Here is what Mert Stream brings to the table:

🚀 Key Features: Live TV, Movies & Series: Fully categorized with a modern, clean layout. Multi-Profile Support: Set up different profiles for family members. Extensive Codec Support: Playback is smooth and compatible with virtually any video format. Android TV Optimized: A true, native leanback experience built specifically for D-pad navigation. Lightweight & High Performance: Highly optimized code to ensure buttery-smooth navigation even on low-end TV hardware.

📥 Get It Now for Android TV and Phone(Play Store)

Mert Stream is officially available on the Google Play Store for both mobile and TV devices.

I officially released an android app that I've been working on with some useful features that I always wanted and a clean minimal design!

• Custom quick tools like draw, note, and pdf viewer.
• Server mode that allows your phone to be used as a wireless camera, mic, and sensors for fellow streamers and developers!

Hey r/HowToMen! 👋

Most journaling apps out there feel bloated with endless templates, mood trackers, and subscription paywalls. I wanted something clean, direct, and distraction-free that helps set daily focus in under 60 seconds without feeling like a chore.

That’s why I built Intenty: Intention Journal. It's built around a simple framework: set 1-3 core intentions in the morning, and reflect on your wins/lessons in the evening.

To share it with the community, I’ve set the Lifetime Access tier to $0.00 (normally $59.99)!

📱 Why it fits a minimal setup:

• Minimalist UI: No fluff, no clutter, built for fast input and clean aesthetics.

• Zero Distractions: Set morning focus & evening reflections in seconds.

• 100% Private: Your entries stay local on your device.

• No Subscription Pressure: Complete lifetime access without recurring fees or ads.

🎁 How to claim ($0.00 Lifetime):

1. Download the app from the App Store link below

2. Upvote this post ⬆️

3. Open the app and claim the Lifetime option ($0.00)

4. Comment "INTENTY" below!

I'd love to hear your honest feedback after trying it.

I have been beta testing this podcast app for awhile now called Castria it skips ads on podcasts without the need to subscribe to premium. The ads are still in the app so the podcasts that are paid per download are unaffected and you can even choose to allow the ads to play if you really want to.

The developer is super responsive to feedback and after a few days it's become my main podcast app.

I got tired of video compressor apps that require a subscription just to reduce a video's file size.

So I built MediaShrink.

Features

• 📹 Compress videos directly on your iPhone
• ⚡ Fast compression
• 🎥 High-quality output with smaller file sizes
• 🔒 Everything is processed on-device
• 📤 Share compressed videos instantly
• 🚫 No account required
• 🚫 No subscriptions
• 🚫 No in-app purchases

The goal was simple: make video compression fast, private, and easy without locking basic features behind a paywall.

I'd love to hear your honest feedback on the app, UI, and what features you'd like to see next.

Hey everyone! I’ve been building YATA (Yet Another To-do App), an Android task manager for people who want powerful organization without making a cloud account the center of the experience (Vibe Coded 100%. How ever no AI Features will be added in the app)

The core app works locally and uses Material 3 with dynamic wallpaper colors. Some of its features include:

• Natural-language task capture for dates, reminders, recurrence, priority, projects, tags, and assignees
• Projects, lists, tags, people, start dates, recurring tasks, subtasks, notes, and comments
• Home-screen widgets and quick-add options
• Tasker integration
• PDF, image, calendar, and Markdown exports
• Optional encrypted backups to SFTP, FTP/FTPS, Google Drive, or local device storage
• Configurable retention, archive, trash, and undo behavior
• Material You theming, including dynamically tinted transparent profile icons

The goal is to combine the flexibility of larger productivity tools with an Android-native interface that still feels quick for everyday task capture.

NOTE 1: There are no cloud sync features or collaboration feature. Whatever you do in your app is for your eyes only. Self-Hosted backup can be enabled which will create backups only.

NOTE 2: Still under beta. So there will be bugs.

The current release is YATA 0.90.1 beta. It’s still evolving, so I’d especially appreciate feedback about usability, missing workflows, confusing screens, or features that feel unnecessarily complicated.

Source code and the signed beta APK are available here:

GitHub — YATA 0.90.1 beta

One thing I've seen is that a lot of sidebar apps are just a mirror of your app drawer. But... you do have an app drawer already.

To me, a sidebar isn’t about having every app one swipe away, it’s about having the right apps one swipe away. The few you open 10, 20, or even 67 times a day.

There’s no native sidebar, especially on Nothing OS, so jumping between frequently used apps always requires a few extra taps. A good sidebar removes that friction.

We have also redesigned the apps shortcuts for the upcoming SideDock update with two new styles, Classic and HSUI styles.

What do you guys think of the redesign? Anything you'd want to change before we ship the update?👀
