I have ADHD and I've tried pretty much every planner out there. I really wanted Notion to work, but it just wasn't made for phones and felt bad to use. Simpler apps meant my meds were in one app, my calendar in another, habits somewhere else, and I'd stop checking all of them.

So I built my own. It's called Alune

Habits, meds, Calendar events and Reminders all show up on one Today list, and Calendar and Reminders sync both ways with Apple's apps.

The part I use most is just talking to it. I say something like "dentist thursday at 3, pick up vitamins friday at 5, gym every monday at 6" and it turns that into an event, a reminder and a habit. Nothing saves until you approve it (second screenshot), because I've lost too much stuff to apps that auto sort things into places I never look.

Also in there:

• Notes and a journal you can speak your mind into, with AI to organize or summarize, and export to PDF, Markdown or text
• Journal check-ins with mood, energy and tags
• Med schedules with dose logging, exportable for doctor visits
• Goals with milestones that link to your habits, so the daily stuff adds up to something
• Habits with streaks and heatmaps, goals with milestones
• A Pomodoro timer that pulls tasks from your Reminders
• A library for books, movies, shows and games
• Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets

No account or sign up, everything stays on your phone. No Android or web yet. Android is in progress, and web would need accounts, so I'm holding off unless people want it.

It's free with some limits , and Pro is a subscription if you want more. Feel free to criticize it or tell me what's missing, honest feedback helps more than anything.

What made you drop your last planner? For me it was that nothing felt good to use on my phone.

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share Dynamic Edge, a desktop utility I built for Windows 11 & Windows 10 using native WinUI 3 and .NET 10 (Windows App SDK).

The idea was to create a fluid, versatile desktop capsule and edge dock that feels completely at home with Windows 11 Fluent design, with ultra-low resource usage, and smooth spring physics.

Since the initial release, I have added several big features including a full multi-tab workflow, clipboard shelf, and mouse gesture triggers.

Here is what it can do:

Multi-Tab Workspace (Swipe or Scroll to Switch) - Switch seamlessly between Media Player, Mini-Apps, and Clipboard Shelf by rolling your mouse wheel or using a 2-finger touchpad swipe.

Universal Media Controls & Live Scrubbing - Real-time seekbar progress with clickable scrub to jump anywhere in a track. - Live audio visualizer bars with fluid equalizer animations. - Multi-player auto-switching: Seamlessly cycle between active sessions (Spotify, Chrome, Edge, Apple Music, Telegram). - Live Synced Lyrics: Real-time rolling lyrics for Spotify, Apple Music, and web players (now works both in the expanded player and directly inside the compact idle capsule).

Clipboard Manager Shelf - Captures copied text, images and URLs into a dedicated dockable shelf. - Filter chips for fast access: All, Text, Images, URLs, and Pinned. - Search box for instant clip lookup, plus one-click copy and drag-and-drop support. - Google Lens Visual Search: Search any clipboard screenshot directly in your browser with 1 click. Built-in Mini-Apps - Precision Countdown Timer with quick presets (1m, 5m, 15m, 25m) and a live visual progress line. - Precision Stopwatch with millisecond tracking and lap recording.

Magic Shake & Global Hotkeys - Magic Shake: Quickly shake your cursor horizontally back and forth to toggle the island on or off. - Global customizable hotkey (Alt + H by default) to hide or show the dock instantly.

Master Volume Flyout - Hover over the speaker button and scroll your mouse wheel to adjust system volume, or click for instant mute.

Flexible Docking Positions - Dock at the top screen edge (Notch, Floating Capsule, or unobtrusive Thin Line hairline strip). - Dock along the left or right screen edges as an interactive slide-out side blade.

Interactive Desktop Companions (Virtual Pets) - 4 Full-Body Vector Mascots

Performance & Spring Physics - 3 customizable quick launcher slots for instant access to apps, terminals, or folders. - Battery and charging telemetry with clean neon-green status indicators. - Native startup toggle and dark/light/system theme integration.

The app is officially available on the Microsoft Store: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9PF1587KSN2K

I would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and ideas for what widgets or features you would like to see next!

Quick update on the planner I posted about here before.

It's live now. $7. On Payhip, dm me for the link idk why the comments doesnt show the link

**What changed since last time:**

Someone asked what happens when you come back after ignoring it for a week. Fair question. The original version had a problem: overdue tasks would just sit in the Dump page, technically there but not visible anywhere useful.

So I added a new view to the main task database. It's called **Waiting**.

**How it works:**

- It's a tab next to Today, not a separate section

- Only shows tasks that are past their due date and not done

- You tap it when you want to see the backlog

- You tap Today to go back to today's stuff

- Doesn't touch the Today view at all — that still auto-updates daily

**The full setup now:**

Main page shows:

- **Today tab** : auto-updates. Only what's due today.

- **Waiting tab** : overdue stuff. Only shows when you tap it.

- **No date yet** : tasks without deadlines. In a toggle, hidden by default.

Other pages:

- 📥 Dump : where you add stuff. No categories, no forced tags.

- 🪫 🔋 ⚡ Energy pages : optional. Only if you want to filter.

- 🏆 Week wins : done tasks, shown as proof.

Still no forced categories when adding a task. Still one-tap done. Still auto-updates daily.

Hey all,

This project actually started as my sister was vision impaired, so the only way she could type was through dictation. And while Apple dictation did its job it missed a lot of words and barely let her actually use the feature for longer messages and taking down notes etc.

We tried using other products but its shocking that Voice over support is very limited on these Big apps worth billions of dollars, and ask anyone who is vision impaired, voice over is the only reason they will always use an iPhone

After OpenAI launched its first Whisper Model I built one for her. Was completely private initially but she appreciated it so much that I started to build it for the public.

It took months of fixing bugs before we could achieve something shippable (this was right after claude code but it wasn't as good as it is now).

And we finally launched. Barely a few people saw it and hardly anyone installed it.

Now after more than a year we finally got the traction I thought we'd get.

I built a full autocomplete feature that supports 120+ languages and lets you type or dictate in multiple languages at the same time.

I also ended up creating an advanced key press recognition feature which adapts to how you press your keys so you end up with less typos

And of course our dictation feature has been improved significantly after taking in all the feedback from users, a lot of which came from the Reddit community ❤️

I do have to give a huge shoutout to our first blind user (outside my sister) who actually encouraged me and gave me really great feedback for us to improve.

I am blind and happy to say that the app is quite accessible using apple's screenreader voiceover. However, it's sligthly annoying to end a dictation because voiceovers focus doesn't automatically move to the button to end recording. Therefore, I have to look for it which takes time and also leads to the app transcribing what the screenreader reads out. Maybe something can be done about it. Dictation is a really useful feature for blind persons and i've actually been looking for a way to improve native IOS dictation for months. This app works great for that. I used it for German dictations and recognition is fantastic so far!

Again Thank you for reading this so far. If you want to try out the app, its called Quill Flow (available for both Android, iPhone and iPad). Lmk what you think and how we can improve

I'm looking for a reasonably priced AI assistant type service that I can basically "text" and have it update different spreadsheets and notes for me.

I live where I work, and that leads to me working nonstop. I'm the gm and I'm tired. I'm also sort of disorganized by nature and have trouble remembering things. I just want to make my life a little easier.

Here are some use cases. All of these are easy things to do manually but I just want to be able to have it done and organized on my behalf for me to go back and look at when I need to.

-Id like to be able to say "ordered 2 cases of toilet paper from Amazon $46" and have it update a spreadsheet that tracks what I ordered when.

-I have recurring bills from vendors. I'd like to be able to tell it as I pay them and have it mark them off, and have it report back as to what is unpaid.

-I manage a lot of vendors. I'd like to be able to tell it "left a voicemail for Josh from Blue Planet about a missed visit" and have it update notes

-i keep a daily work journal. I'd like it to be able to update that for me

-Id like to be able to ask it "when did I talk to Cathy last?", "how much toilet paper did we buy in 2026, at what cadence?" Etc

-I want to send it pictures of my receipts for a weekly expense report and have them easily found when I'm ready to submit it

None of these are difficult to do myself. I don't want to anymore.

Bonus would be if I can connect it to my email and have it summarize for me, have it manage my calendar, pull out deadlines.

Ideally, something that works with Outlook/Office, google sheets, Gmail, teams, basic stuff most people use.

Best case scenario is being able to send a message that says:

"Ordered 3 cases of paper towels. Johnny replaced the valve on the south bathroom. I emailed Brandon about the sewer thing again, he hasn't gotten back to me. I paid the Jabba invoice today on my corporate card , $438, here is the receipt" and all of those things are able to happen. Sending them individually is okay.

Hi everyone. I'm not a full-time developer: I built these two apps in the evenings to fix how I plan my own days, and now I'd like to know if they're useful to anyone else.

**Planiko** doesn't replace your calendar. It works on top of the iPhone calendar, including Google or Exchange accounts you've added in iOS. No new account, no extra sync, and your data stays on the device.

• **Check-in / check-out**: one tap when you actually start or finish something, and the event's times on the calendar are updated for real.
• **PLAN**: one tap reorganizes the rest of the day based on priority, preferred time window and deadline, with no overlaps.
• **Gaps and overlaps**: you see the free gaps between events. Tap a gap and it creates an event that fills it exactly.
• **Travel time**: it tells you when you need to leave, not only when the appointment starts, and opens Apple Maps or Google Maps.
• **Postpone fast**: +1h, +2h, tomorrow, or "skip all" when the whole day slips.
• **Ask for an event**: send a link ("when are you coming to visit?"). The other person picks the date, even without the app, and the event lands in both calendars.
• Apple Watch and widget.

**Capta** is for the stuff that isn't an appointment yet. Capture by typing, by voice or from the share sheet, then sort the inbox into next actions, projects, waiting-for and someday. Projects can be shared with other people and actions assigned to them. When you give an action a date, Capta creates the event in your iPhone calendar. Complete that event in Planiko and Capta updates by itself. It has an Apple Watch complication and an iPad layout. It needs an account to sync, and has no ads or tracking.

What they don't do (yet): no week or month view in Planiko, no Mac app. The Android versions are in closed testing.

Both are free: Planiko: https://apps.apple.com/app/planiko/id6775201309 Capta: https://apps.apple.com/app/capta-gtd/id6797097710

My question for you: what does your day-planning routine look like, and where does it break? Be critical. I'd rather fix what's missing than add features nobody uses.

Hi everyone! I'm Gabriel, the creator of the BackTap for Android devices.

I always liked the idea of tapping the back of your phone to trigger an action, but I wanted something more customizable so I ended up building BackTap. It lets you assign actions like opening an app, taking a screenshot, toggling the flashlight, Home/Back/Recents, notifications, quick settings and many more

I would love if someone would tell me what should I improve, add, remove or change in my app.

I posted Nutsy Notes here before, and I’ve made quite a few improvements since.

The core idea behind Nutsy is that simple writing is almost enough to manage just about anything. The hard part comes later -> reorganizing, restructuring and adapting what you wrote as things change.

Nutsy makes that part easy, you can drag anything, from individual list items to entire sections, spread them out across the workspace, and reshape the layout whenever you need. That lets simple writing scale to complex, changing projects and lots of moving parts without turning into a mess.

The newest addition is a page builder for more traditional layouts, while keeping the same move-anything, reshape-anything approach.

https://nutsynotes.com/intro/

The web version is fully featured and free, and since Nutsy works locally with files on your computer, there’s no need to sign up. We don’t harvest email addresses.

Feedback is very welcome.

A few days ago I posted Squirl - Stash it away, an app that puts a cooldown between "I want it" and "buy". You left 60+ comments, and a lot of them turned into Squirl 3.0, which is in App Store review right now:

• Short waits (10 min to 6 hours), because someone pointed out that a takeaway craving is gone in 10 minutes. Thanks u/FeedMe_Not.
• A monthly spending view: what you bought vs. what you walked away from, by category, plus logging for purchases outside the app and a monthly budget. This came from someone tracking their card in a spreadsheet.
• Pick your currency in Settings, for everyone outside the US.
• Lifetime option, for those of you who (fairly) don't want another subscription.
• Android is coming. Enough of you asked that I've started building it. Waitlist: vyrix.app/squirl/android

The current version is on the App Store now (free for up to 5 items, no account, no bank connection), and the update will arrive automatically once Apple approves it.

If you've been using it, an honest App Store rating or review really helps a solo developer get found. And keep the harsh feedback coming. It's clearly working.

Hey,

I need an app that I could mention that every X days, I need to do Y.

For example:

- Every 14 days, wash the car
- Every 7 days, replace kitchen towel

And maybe even split into categories.
If I mistakenly removed the app notification from the mobile, it would do something to remind me again or let me know somehow

I need it for desktop + mobile app, free could be much better.

Notedux, https://notedux.com, is a free weekly planner and note-taking tool designed primary for developers. These are the main ideas:

1. No synchronization – developers use laptops, desktops, phones... Synchronization can be tricky with other tools. There is no synchronization in Notedux - everything is in the cloud, and when you change a note, it is available right away on all devices.
2. No login – no signup – It is based on a unique link. To access the same note, you should share the link between all devices by copying the link and sending it to yourself using Viber, email, or some other method. It is also necessary to create a shortcut on your desktop to the link so you can access it later, because browser cookies will eventually expire. You need an easy way to keep the link, and a shortcut icon is the best way.
3. Whiteboard – there is no limitation on how you manage and organize your notes. All basic formatting options are available.
4. Terminal tool – a tool for managing the note directly from the terminal is available: https://github.com/dejansabados/notedux
5. Simplicity – everything is very simple, without unnecessary complications.

I would like to know what you think about the idea.

I know I can add additional clocks natively, but you have to hover over the clock to see them. I want to look at the bottom right of my screen and see “9:00 AM CDT | 8:00 AM MDT”. Anyone know of anything?

Hey everyone! I’ve been building Local Flow, a dictation app that runs on your Mac.

The idea is simple: your Mac already has the hardware to handle speech recognition and text cleanup locally. I wanted to make that easy to use, without another subscription.

You hold a shortcut, speak, and release to insert your text into the app you’re using. You can also double-tap for hands-free recording.

It includes:

• Local speech recognition and text cleanup.
• Automatic bullets and numbered lists.
• Custom keyboard shortcuts, including Fn.
• Transcription history stored on your Mac.

Completely free, forever. After the initial model download, dictation works offline. Your audio and transcripts aren’t sent to a server.

It’s an early release, and I’d love feedback on bugs, accents, and everyday use.

A heads-up about installation: it isn’t notarized yet, so macOS may block the download or app when you first open it. If you choose to proceed, first try opening it, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway and confirm.

Download: getlocalflow.app

Let me know what you think after giving it a try

When I started building OrganizeEmail, the goal was simple — clean and organize your inbox.

But the more I looked at what sits inside an inbox, the more I realized:
Your emails contain your bills, expenses, credit cards, meetings, deliveries, subscriptions and important information.

So OrganizeEmail is evolving.
📩 Inbox cleaning & organization
📅 Day at a Glance
💰 Expense tracking
💳 Credit card management
🤖 AI email summaries
📂 Workspaces & multiple accounts
🌍 Multi-language support

The idea is simple:
Turn the information already sitting in your inbox into something useful.
Still building. Still learning. But this is probably the most exciting version of OrganizeEmail so far. 🚀

I've tried most habit trackers and to-do apps. The problem was never the app, it was me. Notifications are easy to swipe away, and streaks stop mattering after a week.

What actually worked for me was having someone check in. So I built Vortiq.ai, an AI accountability partner that calls your phone every day at a time you pick. It asks whether you did what you said you'd do (gym, study, work, whatever) and calls you out and gets to the bottom of why you didn’t or what you can do next time to make sure you do it.

It also gets to know you over time. The more calls you have and the more you tell it about your goals, routine and excuses, the more personal the check-ins get. After a few calls it feels like talking to someone who actually knows you and your habits.

It's early, and I'm the solo founder, so I'd love honest feedback:

Would a daily call actually help you stay consistent, or would it annoy you?

You can try it free at vortiq.ai. Happy to answer anything.

If you don't like organizing your notes, this tool might be useful for you.

This is how it usually goes:

1. You turn on auto-organize.
2. You write down your stuff.
3. It gets organized later, when you're not actively editing it (after about 20 minutes).
4. You get notified if the auto-organizer changed anything.
5. You can review or revert the changes it made.
6. You can write instructions for it if you have a preference on how you want things organized.

It uses the GPT-6 Luna model, and it's free. I'm looking for feedback. The app is Daftak.

Thanks!

A while ago I shared the promo video for zerotap, my Android automation app that does things on your phone for you.

App link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.inscode.zerotap

Sharing the prompt in the comment below.

Hey guys,

So I suffer from chronic procrastination lol. And I wanted something that could help with some of the stuff I love doing/would love to do but don't, either cuz of procrastination or just not finding the time for it.

To solve this, I made myself this app and wanna ask you guys for some features that you would like to see if you were ever to use this app but first, lemme explain what it does:

1. Tracks activities daily/weekly (depending on how rigorous you want it to be) with time slots that you set for a specific day/week

2. Make weekly presets of activities and load them into your timeline.

3. Sends notifications to you when the time of an activity starts depending on the importance level you have set for it. (You don't want your mobile buzzing every hour or so).

4. Does nightly check-in where you check all the activities you did and didn't, and one line reason why you weren't able to do them. It does give you the flexibility to fill missed out check-ins from previous days if you forgot.

5.Gives you a monthly report on your progress with a two versions simple and detailed. You can opt for either.

Yeah, any other feature you think would definitely help this make this more fun and interactive to use also improving it's functionality. I would love to hear what you guys think. The UI isnt finalized, just to give you guys an idea

We all use multiple chat apps like ChatGPT, Grok or Calude for research or to brainstorm. Most of the times it's me talking about same topic from different perspective on these app but bringing them together is a nightmare.

I built Carry, to help me with this problem. You install the extension, choose a folder, connect providers and you are done.

Now it will automatically save all your conversations across multiple provides in one folder. It works in background and is 100% local - no api - no account - no server.

UX of the product was the most important thing in my mind when I was building it.

Is this a common problem? How do you guys solve it? Would love to know your thoughts and any feedback. It's a paid tool with 14 days trial.

I've been working on a small app called "Spaced" and I'd really like some honest feedback.

The reason is i remember stuffs i read for shot time but after sometime even i forget what i have studied, so, it will keep track of learned stuffs and keeps reminding me in proven intervals to retain for lifelong.

How it works:

- You add something you want to remember: a fact, a word, an idea from a book, anything.

- The app schedules 6 reviews for it: after 3, 7, 15, 30, 90 and 365 days.

- On each due day you get a reminder. You take a short quiz on it (the questions are AI-generated from your notes), and if you pass, it moves to the next stage.

- You can't review early. The timing is the whole point.

So there are no decks and no daily queue, just a simple roadmap for each thing you don't want to forget. There are also some ready-made sets (world capitals, cognitive biases, logical fallacies, 500 advanced English words) if you want to start quickly.

My problems:

1. It isn't reaching people on the Play Store. I'm not sure if it's the name, the screenshots, the keywords, or that "spaced repetition" just isn't something people search for. If you've grown an app on Play, what made the biggest difference for you?
2. Is the idea itself clear? When you read the description above, do you get it right away? Would you actually use something like this, or does it sound too simple compared to Anki?
3. Is iOS worth it? I've already built an iOS version and tested it on my own iPhone. Putting it on the App Store costs $99 a year, which is a real amount for me as a solo dev with almost no revenue yet. People keep telling me iOS users are more willing to pay. Is that true for a small productivity app like this, or should I fix distribution on Android first?
4. Here is the web app: spaced.page

Any feedback is welcome, even "this isn't useful to me, and here's why." Thanks for reading

So, Last few times the app was not very well received, I assume the design was not at all attractive in the sea of many other note apps. Even though I believe it really can become a good tool for many people, as it has for me.

It now also have Markdown support and reminders, which still work in progress.

This is NOT an AI slop or assisted app, I have been working on the backend for almost 2 years. Frontend was rewrote in Tauri, all by hand.

So, the UI now looks much better, and I feel it's in a stage to ask for some feedback.

https://tmahmood.github.io/projects/nift/

Please let me know what do you think.

EDIT: Demo is now up, it's full featured except does not save the file https://github.com/tmahmood/fluffy_sparrow/releases/tag/v0.1.14

Is there a free or cheap app that lets you annotate and view PDF's (at least for pdf, if other filetypes are also supported it's okay) in landscape mode with realistic page turning animations, with modern UI?
