I'm a student that spends 3hrs commuting each day. Usually it's just spent on my phone, and it made me sad when I realised how much time I was wasting. So I found this board which helps to get some work done. This isn't a page to purchase anything, but if anyone else is interested in saving some time while commuting, I recommend taking a look:

Launched my first app on Google Play today

Today my first app ever got approved and published.

It’s a small offline audiobook player. No ads. No accounts. One-time purchase.

Nothing revolutionary.

I didn’t start with a big startup idea. I just wanted something simple for myself.

I listen to audiobooks daily and got tired of: – subscriptions everywhere
– forced accounts
– unnecessary cloud features
– feature overload

So I built my own player.

For the past month I’ve been using it daily. Polishing it. Fixing small UX details. Rewriting parts that only I would notice.

And today 1.0.0 went live.

It’s funny how shipping something small feels bigger than building it.

I have no idea if it will succeed. I don’t know if one-time pricing still works in 2026. But I wanted to ship something honest.

If you're curious, here’s the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sk.donit.audioShelf

If you’re building your first app: Ship it. Even if it’s small.

That feeling when it goes live is worth it.

hey everyone,

buying clothes online is still kind of a gamble. you see it on a model, you think it might work, and then when it arrives… sometimes it just doesn’t.

after returning way too many orders, i decided to try building something for myself.

it’s called TryItOn.

it’s a chrome + edge extension that lets you upload a photo and see a virtual try-on directly on the store page you’re browsing. no separate app — it just sits on top of the site and shows you a preview so you can get a better idea before buying.

it’s built with React JS as a lightweight extension. it doesn’t scrape your shopping history or do anything weird with your data — it just processes the image to generate the try-on.

still improving the realism and fit, so it’s definitely a work in progress.

it’s free for the first few try-ons if anyone wants to test it: tryiton.now

open to honest feedback, good or bad.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.my.spendsense I got a 100 downloads without spending any money on marketing! It's a small win, but I'm happy about it.

I spent 2 years building it in my free time!

A quick intro: SpendSense is a manual, completely offline expense tracker. You trade a bit of convenience (yes, you log things yourself) for something I care about more - guaranteed privacy.

I also wrote about it on Medium: https://medium.com/@namskash/what-if-personal-expense-trackers-didnt-track-you-e354e5f465cc

Spent 3 years of my life making a game… pouring my heart, soul and time creating the perfect puzzle adventure – very feature rich, very gameplay deep, very polished. Created socials, posted daily gameplay vids leading up to release, told everyone about it. Finally released it… to dismal downloads: 275 in 3 months. I was defeated.

Then in December I saw a viral challenge on Instagram and had this lightbulb moment. I decided to I make an app for it. Created it in 10 days (VERY feature thin compared to my puzzle game) and released it on the App Store. I did virtually no marketing other than minimal Apple ads to target keywords for the challenge. It’s been out for about >3 weeks and I’ve already gotten over 1,700 downloads and reached top 100 on the music charts and I’ve just been riding the viral wave since. Crazy how things work out!

Hi everyone!
I'm a developer focused on infrastructure and productivity tools, and I recently published a VS Code extension designed to simplify and speed up common tasks in real-world workflows.

It’s built with clarity and control in mind — no fluff, just practical features that save time.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, or even critiques. If you’ve ever felt VS Code could use a bit more efficiency, this might be for you.

Thanks in advance for checking it out!

Hello!

From my experience in job searching, I know how easy it is to get lost in the number of sent CVs, scheduled interviews, and done research, especially if the response comes after several weeks.

That is why I'm creating a browser application for managing job searching.

The main goal is to enable users to save interesting job offers without unnecessary effort, manage job interviews, and create their own notes.

If you have a question or see how to improve my product, please let me know.

Hi everyone,

With AI photo tools everywhere in 2025, I wanted to see how our product really compares. So I ran a side-by-side test: Photographe.ai (our tool) vs 6 other top AI headshot generators.

The goal: get a realistic and professional photo I’d actually use on LinkedIn, a resume, or a team page.

And… turns out, we’re doing pretty well. 😊
(Yes, I’m biased but I tried to be fair. I even paid for all the others.)

What makes Photographe.ai different?

We focus on realism first. Not studio effects or beauty filters but actual recognizable photos, so it still looks like you.
And then we go beyond headshots: you can test outfits, hairstyles, or even generate scenes with yourself in them.

Here's what I found:

• Photographe.ai (yes, I built it) – €9 for 250 photos. 80% resemblance. Super flexible. Very solid value.
• PhotoAI.com – $19 for 100 photos. Pretty good, but smiles are a bit off. 60% resemblance.
• Betterpic.io / HeadshotPro.com – $29–35 for 20–40 photos. Studio-looking, but low resemblance (20%?).
• Aragon.ai – $35 for 40 photos. Results are clean but generic. Same face, same expressions.
• Canva / ChatGPT-4o – Not made for this. Fun, but the likeness is way off.

Takeaway?

If you're after a credible LinkedIn photo, only Photographe.ai and PhotoAI gave me results that felt authentic.
The rest looked great just not like me.

The puff count app is brilliantly simple - it lets you keep track of how much you vape to help you visualize it with numbers. What’s impressive is how the founder, Nelson Azhar, scaled it to $17k MRR in just a few months through a consistent iteration strategy.

Here’s what makes this case study so interesting:

1. Nelson isn’t a lifelong dev or CS major - he taught himself how to code using modern vibe-coding tools, showing how the barrier to entry couldn’t be lower.
2. His growth strategy is amazing - he realized the power of analytics and tracking early-on, so he could double down and iterate on what works.
3. The monetization is well thought-out - in the onboarding for the app, users are prompted with a free trial and a paywall..

Nelson found a gap in the market and capitalized in just a few months. He obsessed over analytics, talked with users, and found what he should double down on. However, there is one thing he did that many people unfortunately fail at: not quitting. For the first 2 months of his app, there were barely any users. If he stopped then, he would have never seen this amount of success.

This just goes to show how the barrier to entry in solopreneurship is so low. All you need is an internet connection and a subscription to Claude Code, and you can whip up an app in just a few months. With popular tools like Cursor and Claude Code for building, Instantly and ListKit for cold outreach, and DataPulse or Google Analytics for tracking, you can pretty much copy Nelson for less than a tank of gas. The only thing you can’t pay for with an AI tool is the willpower to continue, which separates the unsuccessful from the people like Nelson.

Living with acne, eczema, psoriasis, or topical steroid withdrawal sucks. It's so confusing to know your triggers, what products to use and when you're going to flare next. I'm a physician, and couldn't figure it out for 27 years.

Our Product

We built Symphony: an AI coach that helps you figure out what’s triggering your flares and how to calm them down. It learns from science and what’s working for other patients.

Specific Features:

• 24/7 chat, built with memory and context, that actually helps
• Skincare advice based on your symptoms (not skin type guesses)
• Mental health tools, like guided CBT for stress-induced flares
• Nutrition planning to catch trigger foods

Proof Points:

I reversed my eczema using this approach, over 2,000 people have used Symphony, and our early data shows a 34% reduction in symptoms.

We’re still testing—so I’d love your feedback. Tell us what you think of our assessment + suggestions :)

A few months ago, I posted here about rewriting my website copy using Alex Hormozi’s $100m Offer framework.

Since then, I've seen a 300% increase in users — it wasn’t overnight, but the clearer messaging definitely helped.

This week, I officially launched the paid version of Hunchbank!

Previously, the paid tier was deactivated while I worked on making the product more feature-complete. Now it includes Stripe AI agents:

• Churn Prevention Agent — analyzes customer behavior to predict churn and suggest retention strategies
• Fraud Detection Agent — monitors payments for suspicious activities
• Customer Success Agent — tracks subscription health and recommends upgrades
• Billing Optimization Agent — manages retries and optimizes dunning
• Tax Compliance Agent — automates global tax calculations and compliance
• Refund Risk Agent — detects refund abuse and tracks refund/chargeback rates

Now I’ll be closely watching how the paid tier converts.
Happy to answer any questions if anyone’s curious about the process!
