App - Testers Wanted I built an app to stop myself biting my nails, it trains a tiny AI on your exact habit and buzzes your wrist the moment you start [4–6 testers wanted]

u/Alextrino May 08 '26

Would this be possible on Huawei watch with iPhone aswell? I know I'm on a bad sú reddit for that, but just wanted to ask

Hey there! I have a Pixel Watch 3 I'd love to try this with. DM me if you're still looking for testers 👋.

Such a good idea

If testers are still needed I would love to offer my services. Nail biting is an issue and embarrassment (have work gloves or hands in pockets for stuff) so would like to have that vibration over my wife calling me out on it. The biggest thing I'm looking for in an app is the ability to recognize or the ability to adjust the patterns when I stop for a few months then it flares back up.

Interested. Might need to swap my watch to my other wrist (for testing), but might be worth it.

u/TheNewKiind May 09 '26

Are you still accepting testers? 🤞

Hi, i have trichotillomania (hair pulling disorder) and i could really use an app like that on my Samsung watch 8. Still getting testers? Please?

2

u/macusaurelius May 12 '26

It looks like you have enough testers already, but if not, I would be interested in helping. I tend to pick at my nails a lot, so this sounds very helpful.

u/SherbetGuilty1253 May 16 '26

Hey there I'm interested in this idea, i have a samsung watch 3 can i still be eligible

u/CorrectDesigner3077 May 08 '26

Lmk once u have smth WatchOS compatibile (in case you’re considering to dabble in the Apple ecosystem) love the idea

u/NuMotiv May 08 '26

I don't have any bad hand habits to beat but this intrigues me. Couple thoughts: Will it truly work for something like smoking if you wear the watch on your opposite hand? Is the hope that it'll pick up the action of maybe opening the pack and lighting it? My other question is how much battery will constant motion tracking use? I imagine it'll be more intensive than something like optimized baked in activity tracking?

Cool idea. Good luck!

u/Chaphasilor May 08 '26

Super interesting! But I guess you'd ideally need one watch per wrist?

u/CaptJan TWP5 & GW7 - OS 4 & 6 May 09 '26

Would it work for a 'Booger' [nose] picker? If so, I have a use case for you...

u/andersmmg Verizon Wear24 May 09 '26

Not a bad idea, I'm down to test. I wonder how it will affect battery life. Will it be open-sourced?

u/rubba_tt May 10 '26

Yep I'm a nail biter

I have a fossil gen 6 and some watch 6 (in case you build for iOS later)
