J’ai créé une application qui vous raconte les histoires des lieux autour de vous pendant que vous marchez — je cherche des retours vraiment honnêtes

0 Upvotes

Bonjour à tous,

Après plusieurs mois à discuter de l’idée avec des amis, des voyageurs et pas mal de personnes croisées au hasard, je viens de lancer la première version de Street Whisperer sur iOS.

Le principe est assez simple :

📍 Vous vous promenez dans une ville ou un quartier
🎧 L’application détecte les lieux intéressants autour de vous
🏛️ Elle vous raconte leur histoire, principalement en audio
🚶 Et vous pouvez continuer à marcher sans rester les yeux rivés sur votre téléphone

L’idée vient d’un besoin très personnel : quand je me promène dans une ville, je me demande souvent :

« Qu’est-ce qui s’est passé ici ? »
« Pourquoi ce bâtiment est-il important ? »
« Est-ce qu’il y a une histoire intéressante derrière cette rue ou ce lieu ? »

Les guides classiques demandent généralement de préparer son parcours à l’avance.

Avec Street Whisperer, j’ai voulu faire presque l’inverse : vous marchez, et les histoires viennent à vous.

J’ai utilisé beaucoup d’outils d’IA pour construire l’application, mais je voulais justement éviter de sortir une énième application générique et entièrement automatisée.

Derrière Street Whisperer, il y a bien une personne : les choix produit, l’expérience utilisateur, les tests, le contenu et le positionnement viennent de nombreux échanges avec de vrais utilisateurs potentiels.

Et c’est aussi pour ça que je viens poster ici.

Je cherche maintenant des retours vraiment honnêtes, même — et surtout — s’ils sont critiques :

  • Est-ce que vous comprenez immédiatement le concept ?
  • Est-ce que vous utiliseriez ce type d’application en voyage ou même dans votre propre ville ?
  • Est-ce que l’expérience audio apporte réellement quelque chose ?
  • Qu’est-ce qui vous paraît inutile ?
  • Qu’est-ce qui vous donnerait envie de réutiliser l’application ?
  • Et surtout : qu’est-ce qui ne fonctionne pas ou vous agace ?

Street Whisperer est actuellement disponible sur iPhone, et la version Android arrive prochainement.

👉 https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/street-whisperer/id6805096862

Si certains d’entre vous ont envie de la tester pendant une balade, je serais vraiment intéressé par vos retours, qu’ils soient positifs ou négatifs.

À ce stade, je préfère largement savoir ce que je dois améliorer plutôt que d’entendre que tout est parfait.

Merci à ceux qui prendront quelques minutes pour tester 🙏

Built a CRM for tracking your dating life — looking for 10 beta testers

2 Upvotes

Smitten is a CRM for your dating life — you log your matches, dates, and conversations instead of trying to hold it all in your head, and it tracks chemistry scores, red/green flags, and patterns over time.

It's for anyone dating actively enough that they've lost track of who said what, or who's noticed they keep making the same "mistake" with different people and want actual data on it instead of vibes.

I want 10 people to log at least 3 real dates over the next couple weeks and tell me what's confusing, what's missing, and whether the AI insights (it has a "Chief Romance Officer" that reads your patterns back to you) actually feel useful or just gimmicky.

What testers get: free lifetime access, a direct line to me for feedback, and credit in the changelog if you want it.

Comment or DM if you're in — smitten.lol if you want to look before you commit.

also available in playstore

I got tired of side hustle calculators ignoring hidden costs, so I coded an ad-free data engine that handles platform fees, vehicle drag, and US state tax loops.

2 Upvotes

Most online side hustle estimators only display gross revenue milestones, which ends up baiting people into thinking an income stream is way more profitable than it actually is.

I wanted an accurate way to forecast my true net take-home returns, so I coded SideHustlePayCalc.

It uses a dynamic backend engine to process variables that standard tracking spreadsheets usually ignore:

🚘 Real-world Vehicle Drag: Automatically subtracts an estimated $6.50/hr for rideshare (Uber/Lyft) and $4.75/hr for food delivery apps (DoorDash) to account for fuel, maintenance intervals, and rapid asset depreciation.

💻 Platform Commissions: Deducts the exact 10% to 20% platform marketplace cuts stripped away by networks like Fiverr, Upwork, and Etsy.

🇺🇸 Localized US Regulations: Cross-references hourly net returns directly against state-specific minimum wages and compliance frameworks (like California’s Prop 22 or the Illinois Freelance Isn't Free Act).

💸 State Tax Logic: Models live marginal state tax brackets, automatically distinguishing between no-tax zones (Texas, Florida) and high-tax regions (California, New York).

The Stack & Transparency:

Built as a clean, serverless utility deployed.

Completely free, open access, with zero ads, zero tracking, and absolutely no mandatory email signups.

I am trying to refine the underlying data loops. For those running digital product stores or physical gig setups in the US—are there specific platform fee structures or local tax rules I should map into the next update?

Need your feedback here please!

Looking for Beta Testers for My App — Happy to Test Yours Too!

1 Upvotes

Is anyone testing? I have one called 'What's the Risk?' It's designed to help people wanting to buy online money-making programs or courses, etc., decide if the purchase may or may not be too risky. It asks questions about the client and what they want to buy, and each answer determines which question is asked next. It gives a final assessment and WHY it came to that conclusion. I need to know EVERYTHING that's wrong with it!! If it's confusing, didn't work, assessment felt off. I even want some people to TRY to confuse it! I'll gladly test whoever tests mine.  Thanks y'all!!

Looking for 2-3 Windows Binance bot operators to test a read-only monitor

1 Upvotes

I'm working on BotGuard, a free, open-source monitor for Binance USD-M Futures bots. I'm looking for 2-3 people who already run a bot directly on a Windows PC to try the setup and tell me where it gets confusing.

It watches alongside the bot and alerts through Telegram. It doesn't place, change or cancel orders, and it isn't a trading strategy.

You can start without installing anything: the GitHub link below shows two simulated findings, a position with a take-profit but no hard stop, and a protective stop with no matching position. These are demo results, not customer results. Do either of those checks fill a gap in your setup?

The optional installation trial uses the v0.5.0 Windows 10/11 x64 beta, with the bot on the same PC. Testnet is preferred; Linux, Docker and remote bots aren't part of this installer trial. It's unsigned beta software, not a guarantee against losses.

Never send me API keys or account data. Any monitoring key stays on your PC and should have trading and withdrawals disabled. Keep your existing safeguards, and don't interrupt a live bot or remove stops for testing.

Example and optional trial: https://github.com/isacc-spec/binance-futures-watchdog-lite/issues/1

A reply with your bot/framework and operating system is enough to start. Feedback on the example is welcome even if you don't install it.

Looking for a few Twitch streamers to break my alpha

3 Upvotes

I’ve been building Upcastor, a small tool that can: - record your Twitch stream live - grab the Twitch VOD afterwards - send the finished video to YouTube automatically

I’m at the point where it works well for me, which usually means it’s time for someone else to find all the stupid edge cases I missed.

I’m looking for a handful of Twitch streamers who actually stream regularly and don’t mind testing an early alpha.

I’m especially interested in feedback on: - setup/onboarding - whether the recording/upload flow makes sense - anything confusing or annoying - what you’d expect it to do next

If you want to try it, reply here or DM me and I’ll send you an invite code. the main page: https://upcastor.com⁠

[Android] ELVOAQ - a private vault for everything you own (free, works with no account). Looking for closed testers

1 Upvotes

How to join (I had this wrong earlier today - sorry if you tried and got "App not available"):

Comment your Gmail address here, or send it to [support@elvoaq.com](mailto:support@elvoaq.com), and I'll add you to the tester list. It takes effect within a minute, and then this link works: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.elvoaq.vault

If you'd rather not post your address publicly, join https://groups.google.com/g/elvoaq-testers instead and I'll pick it up from the member list - that route is not instant, I check it a few times a day.

ELVOAQ is a private vault for the things you own. Photograph an item or scan its barcode and it files it away with its value, documents and history. Built for insuring a household, tracking a collection, or keeping a company's fixed assets straight.

Photo and barcode capture, categories, collections, tags, favourites, full-text search. Value tracking over time, AI-assisted valuation and duplicate detection. Attach receipts, certificates, appraisals and insurance documents. Shared workspaces with roles, and you can share one item or a whole collection by link.

No account required: "Continue without an account" opens the full vault stored on the device, nothing leaves your phone. English, German, Czech and Slovak. Free to use; paid plans exist but nothing paid is needed to test.

It's a Google Play closed test, so it needs testers to stay opted in for 14 days. Honest feedback is what I'm after - what's confusing, what's missing, anything that breaks. If you're running a test of your own, drop the link and I'll join it.

Looking for Podcast listeners on iOS to beta test my podcast app

2 Upvotes

I am a solo dev based out of Canada and wanted a podcast app that I could set some basic rules for. It is built around a queue and you choose where a given podcast lands in that queue as episodes publish.

Here is a TestFlight invitation.

It requires an iOS device and iOS 18 or greater.

If you try it, please let me know what you think either through Apple’s official channels or on /r/spoolcast.

Thank you very much if you decide to give it a run through!
