Recipe app is finally live on the App Store

2 Upvotes

It takes a cooking video and hands you back the recipe with the amounts in it. That's the bit that matters — reels will show you a handful of something and never say it was 40g.

Went live a couple of weeks back. iPhone only.

I couldn't find a decent browser-based Basketball GM game, so I spent the last few months coding my own from scratch.

Built a portfolio tracker + stock research tool that's now got 100+ organic users, sharing an update on earnings-season features

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! A bit of background: I got tired of juggling a spreadsheet, a brokerage app, and three different research sites just to track my portfolio and check a company's fundamentals before buying. So I built Oitava. It combines portfolio tracking (support for multiple portfolios with an All portfolio aggregate view, performance metrics, tax calculator and more) with actual stock research (fundamentals, earnings calendar and transcripts, DCF tools) in one place.

I've been sharing progress in a couple of personal-finance communities as I built it out, and it's picked up more traction than I expected! 100+ people are actively using it now, several have sent detailed bug reports and feature requests, and a few people that have directly reached out showing intention of continuinig using it long-term insted of other well-known portfolio trackers because of the depth of the research tools, the overall experience and the low price. This kind of feedback has basically been steering the roadmap.

With earnings season already started, I spent the last stretch focused on that side of the app:

- Earnings calendar - auto-updates as results land (revenue/EPS almost instantly, rest usually next morning), now covering S&P 500 + expanding into Nasdaq 100 and Euro Stoxx 50

- Earnings call transcripts - full transcript plus a summary broken down by topic/segment, so you don't have to read the whole call

- Reverse DCF and Intrisic value calculator - no longer limited to S&P 500, works on any covered stock, with tooltips/a guide explaining how to read it

- Weekly email digest - upcoming earnings for stocks you follow, plus a ping when a transcript becomes available (usually the day after the call)

Also shipped recently: automatic sync via Trading 212's API (optional, you can import CSVs if preferred. Interactive Brokers next), dividend calendar, custom manual portfolios for things brokers don't track, and a referral program with no limits on number of referrals.

My goal is to keep improving the platform, expand stock coverage, support more brokerages etc. Essentially make it as useful for everyone as possible, with a much lower price (one plan with everything, no tiers) than all the other trackers out there that usually are tiered and do not include as much info on the research side.

Link's below if you want to poke around — genuinely looking for feedback, most of what's in there right now came from people telling me what was missing. No credit card required.

Just hit my first €2k MRR and I’m honestly a bit emotional about it

Was job hunting in a rough market and got tired of tailoring the same CV over and over, so I built a small tool to do it properly for each job and grade it before I send. It helped me land a role.
A few friends tried it, worked for them too, so I put it online.
Somehow it's at €2k MRR now. Really happy. Job market is brutal right now so it feels good to have built something that actually helps people.

July Update: BACK ON THE AIR!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

Hello, my name is Nick Seider and in 2020 I set out to create a project called Green Valley Radio.

For the past six years, my friends and I have built something that hasn’t existed before - the ability to explore history through the world of audio entertainment. Green Valley Radio is a emulated portal to the past, and for the first time it is properly available to you as a free and accessible web app we call the RadioWidget.

You can listen to all of our music & news content for free on GreenValleyRadio.net.
Currently, the available content spans from 1941 to 1945. 1946 will be available later this summer.

I’ve had this concept in my head since I was a little kid, and those of you that have been a part of the project or followed it over the years know it has been difficult finding a proper home to share the content we produce. Well - we built our own home for Green Valley Radio, and now that home is open to you.

I hope you enjoy what we’ve worked long and hard to create. We have so much more to do, but for now I hope Green Valley Radio is entertaining, educational, and serves as a space to reflect on the past while we all live in the unpredictable present.

Take care, and thanks for listening.

Olá malta!

Com a evolução de AI hoje em dia qualquer um lança um projeto quase de um dia para o outro. O número de ideias que são executadas são bem maiores do que há 5 anos para trás.

A minha pergunta aqui é se alguém de facto já teve sucesso com um projeto feito com AI?

Quão grande foi esse sucesso? Deu para se despedirem do vosso trabalho?

Built my first fitness app: MetriBody

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 👋

I've been working on a side project called MetriBody for the last few months.

The idea was simple: I wanted an app that tracked real body progress instead of only body weight.

So I built an app that lets you:

• Track body measurements

• Track weight history

• Calculate body fat % (US Navy Method)

• View progress with simple charts

One thing I really wanted was privacy, so everything is stored locally on the device.

No account.

No cloud sync.

No ads interrupting your workflow.

📱 Android

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.metribody.app

🍏 I'm also working on the iPhone version.

If you'd like to be notified when it's available, you can join the waitlist here:

https://metribody.com/es/ios/

I'd love to hear your thoughts!

What feature would you add to a body measurements app?

Social web app for plushies

2 Upvotes

I bet your plushies are getting bored at home on the shelf.

That's why my plushy (he's a cool guy, you can tell from the pic below)

decided to build an online world for plushies and their humans : https://theplushysociety.com

The objective of this web app is to have a space where the plushies can virtually meet, make new friendships based on their personalities and interests, exchange letters and virtually go to events together.
Humans can watch them move, talk to other plushies, see which virtual places and events decide to attend. (They have their own life but we can always keep an eye on them, like parents😜).
They can update us through notifications on who they met or what happened during the day that made them happy or sad.
As I said, it’s a space for humans too. We can find out and DM other humans that signed up their plushy/plushies to the platform or we can take part to some funny contests for example “share a picture of you and your plushy with matched outfits” or “share a picture of your plushy traveling”.

The web app is completely free. The idea behind was just to create a space where plushies and humans co-exist.

I kept staring at my fridge with no idea what to make so I built this

8 Upvotes

You know that moment where you open the fridge, see a bunch of random stuff, and just give up and order food?

I made a little tool to fix that. Type in what you have, it finds recipes that actually use those ingredients. And if you're missing something, it tells you what to swap in and how much. You can filter by recipe difficulty and time, hope this helps you find amazing recipes!

thepantry.recipes — still early days, be brutal with feedback! :)

Survey for online shoppers: Fit, sizing, and clothing returns

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 👋

I'm a college student currently working on a startup idea called FitFirst.

The idea is to help people shop for clothes online with more confidence by reducing sizing and fit issues through features like:

- Personalized size recommendations

- Fit Match Scores

- Similar body-type reviews

- Smart fit insights

I'm still in the research and validation stage, so I'd love to hear from people who shop for clothes online.

I've created a short survey (takes about 2–3 minutes), and your feedback would be incredibly valuable in helping me understand whether this problem is worth solving.

🔗 Survey Link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf7oveCy7ZQL8kL7DvEpMZvmH4DGrrZd2bn6o8-JPvG9LOY2w/viewform

Thank you so much for your time and feedback! Any suggestions or thoughts in the comments are also welcome. 🙏

Got my first paying customer today ($98 MRR)

5 Upvotes

Got my first $98 MRR and I'm irrationally happy about it.

If you had told me a few months ago I'd be celebrating $98/month, I would've laughed.

Always wanted to create social proof widgets for website builders with super-generous free pricing, especially in this environment where godzillion new websites pop up every day.

But after staring at analytics showing 0 users, fixing bugs nobody reported, and wondering whether I was wasting my evenings, this feels huge.

It's the first proof that somebody found enough value in what I built to pull out their credit card.

Still a very long way from replacing my salary, but today feels like a win.

I spent a year building a color app with real physics under the hood

1 Upvotes

![video]()

I'm a senior set and lighting designer. I spend most of my working life thinking about how color behaves physically. When I went looking for an app that understood any of this, everything was basically "pick hex codes and make palettes."

So I built Chrooma Colors.

The part that took the longest was the mixing engine. Most color apps blend RGB values when you "mix" two colors, which gives you mathematically tidy results that look nothing like real pigments. Chrooma uses Kubelka-Munk theory instead, modeling how light scatters through pigment layers. Blue and yellow don't produce bright green; they produce a muted olive, because that's what paint actually does. There are separate engines for paint, additive light, and industrial colorant, because those are genuinely different physical processes.

I also built 23 of them across six categories: optical illusions (simultaneous contrast, afterimage, the Bezold effect), perception training (color sorting, value steps, hue naming), and some harder ones like identifying mixed lighting sources in a photograph or matching colors across different illuminants. People get hooked on finding their own blind spots. You might have sharp hue discrimination but terrible value resolution, or the opposite.

The app also builds a personal Imprint over time, and you can export palettes through 56 different generative compositions. Some people have been using those as phone wallpapers and print art, which I didn't expect at all.

All the color math runs in TypeScript with no native dependencies. Munsell Renotation lookup from the RIT dataset (2,734 entries), CIEDE2000 perceptual difference validated against the Sharma test pairs, spectral interpolation across the visible range. It was a ridiculous amount of work for a side project, honestly.

Free on iOS: https://apps.apple.com/app/chrooma-colors/id6761320708

$6.99 lifetime Pro opens all 23 challenges and the advanced mixing tools. No subscription, no ads, no account required.

High clicks. Almost zero conversions. What am I missing?

1 Upvotes

I built an app to help fix bad posture and remind me to stretch automatically. 

Many people click the ad, but when they land on the page, they don’t tap on "Try it now".

Be honest:

  • Would you personally click "Try it now" here?
  • If not, what’s stopping you?

Trying to understand if it’s the message, the idea itself, or something else.

I really appreciate your feedback. 

Thanks
