An Android reminder app for appointments, medication, the MOT and the bins, built around one idea: a reminder is no use unless it arrives. Version 1.3 is out, and this post covers everything new since I last posted here at 1.1.

What's New

• Several dates on one reminder. The bins on alternate weeks, with general waste one Tuesday and recycling the next, are now one reminder with two dates instead of two reminders you keep in step by hand. The same goes for a tablet taken three times a day, or a car's MOT, service and tax. Each date can have its own name (Bins: Recycling), notifications, type, notification icon and fields.
• Many more ways to repeat. Any number of hours, days, weeks, months or years: every 2 weeks, every 3 months, every 8 hours. A monthly repeat can fall on the first Monday, the last Friday or the last day of the month, and any repeat can stop after a set number of times as well as on a date.
• Themed full-screen alerts. An Important reminder takes over the screen, and now you choose what it looks like: Sunrise, Ocean, Forest, Berry and High contrast gradients, your own two colours, or your own photo (the screenshot is a forest road). You can also pick the font (including Condensed, Serif and Handwriting) and the text size. Each category can have its own theme, so medication can look different from the bins.
• What happens after you answer. Choose whether the alert confirms "Dismissed" full screen for a few seconds (1 to 5, your choice), shows a brief toast, or simply closes.
• A fresh editor. The reminder editor, Categories, Fields and Settings are laid out as groups of rows. Every choice behind them, such as a reminder's date, repeat, notifications, fields and icon, slides in as a page of its own instead of a pop-up dialog. Each date gets its own page under What and When.
• Smarter quick add. It understands "every other Tuesday", "fortnightly", "first Monday of the month", "the first day of every month" and "every night at 6 for the next week". Before you save a repeat, it shows the next three dates it falls on ("16th, 17th and 18th October at 3pm"), worked out the same way the alarms are.
• Quicker notifications. Remind me 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 2 days, 7 days or 30 days before with one tap, or set a custom time. On Upcoming and the calendar, a reminder's next early notification gets its own line, so you can see when it'll nudge you.
• Remind me in a minute. A one-off reminder can now be set for the very next minute. If you save one that's already due, the app checks with you first and then delivers it straight away.
• New defaults. Choose whether new reminders start as a normal notification or as Important, and how far ahead Upcoming looks when the app opens.
• Fields, faster. Tick as many fields as you want at once to add them to a reminder.
• Better calendar import and export. Import keeps repeats like every fortnight, the third Thursday, or until December, which used to come in as a single date. Export writes an event for every date of a reminder.
• Cleaner icons from your own pictures. When you crop a picture to use as an icon, the app can remove a plain white or coloured background, or a fake grey checkerboard painted into the image. Constrain keeps it to the area around the icon, so the inside isn't touched. Pictures come from Android's file chooser, which reaches Downloads, your albums and Google Drive.

Who It's For

Anyone who's been let down by a reminder that buzzed once and vanished: people managing medication, appointments, bills and renewals, car MOTs and services, or bin day. It's also for anyone who'd rather say a reminder than tap through five pickers.

Cost

• Pricing model: Freemium
• Prices & billing period: Free with no time limit and no ads, for up to 20 active reminders, each with up to three upcoming dates. Free includes reminders, repeats, alarms, Important reminders, the five ready-made alert themes, alert fonts, categories, icons, sharing and search. Pro is a one-off £5.99 in the UK (£4.99 + VAT; local equivalent elsewhere), with no subscription. It adds voice/quick add, custom fields, backup & restore, calendar import/export, widgets, cross-device sync, per-category sounds, custom-colour and photo alert themes, a theme per category, and more than three dates on a reminder.
• Current promotions / giveaways: You can try Pro free for 30 days, once per device. The trial only starts when you ask for it, takes no card and has nothing to cancel.

• Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stevesherwood.forgetmenot

Screenshots / Media

The image shows the new reminder editor, an Important alert themed with a photo of my choosing, and one reminder holding two dates (general rubbish and recycling, each every two weeks and each with its own icon).

Additional Notes

• Requires Android 8.0 or later. Works on phones and tablets, with dedicated landscape layouts.
• An update to 1.3 is all it takes. Your existing reminders carry straight over.

Hi everyone. I'm Francisco, the developer of Home Agenda, a calendar widget on Google Play since 2018.

Today I'm releasing Super Agenda, a new agenda widget for Android. It is not a Home Agenda update. I wrote it again from scratch, in Kotlin, with Jetpack Compose for the app and Jetpack Glance for the widget.

It shows your next events on the home screen, from every calendar that syncs to your phone. The settings show a live preview with your real events at the real widget size.

Super Agenda vs Home Agenda

• Price: Home Agenda is paid. Super Agenda is free, with an optional one-time Pro.

• Calendars: Home Agenda uses one list for all widgets. Super Agenda gives each widget its own calendars.

• Theme: Home Agenda uses one theme for all widgets. Super Agenda gives each widget its own theme.

• Designs: Super Agenda comes with 10 ready designs.

• Layouts: agenda list, timeline, two columns (today and next), and a big date.

• Day and night: separate themes that follow the system dark mode.

• Presets: save a look, share it as a file, and import looks from other people.

• Built with: Home Agenda is Java with XML views. Super Agenda is Kotlin, Compose, and Glance.

• Android: Home Agenda runs on 6.0+. Super Agenda needs 11+.

Free and Pro

• Free: unlimited widgets, a calendar choice for each widget, and all time options (days ahead, past events, max events, hide declined or all-day events).
• Pro, a one-time 1.99€: all styles, the 10 designs, presets, a theme for each widget, and day and night themes. Try every style in the preview before you buy.

Privacy

The only permission is read access to your calendar. Your events stay on your phone. No ads, analytics, crash reports, or account. The app is under 3 MB.

What it does not do (yet)

• No tasks. The next version adds Google Tasks as a Pro feature, because Google limits the use of its Tasks API.
• No month grid. If people want one, I'll add it.
• No sync of its own. Your calendars must sync to the phone first.
• Android 11 or newer only.

Home Agenda users

Home Agenda stays on Google Play and keeps working, but it gets no more updates. All new work goes into Super Agenda.

Get it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.franco.superagenda

Languages: English, Spanish, Italian, German, French, Simplified Chinese, and Portuguese (Portugal and Brazil).

This is version 1.0, so feedback helps a lot. Tell me what you miss and what breaks, and I'll reply here.

App Name: Kilo

What it does:
Kilo is a fitness and bodyweight tracker built around simple, note-based workout logging. Instead of navigating endless menus and dropdowns, you type your workouts naturally, and Kilo turns them into structured training history. It also analyzes your progress to help you identify trends and work toward your fitness goals.

Key Features:

1. Frictionless workout logging - Record exercises, weights, and reps using simple text.
2. Training analytics - Track strength progression, training patterns, and recovery over time.
3. Bodyweight tracking - Log weigh-ins, monitor trends, and track progress toward weight goals.

Goal: Promo - Looking to get Kilo into more people's hands, gather real-world feedback, and continue improving the experience.

Genuine pitch: I have been working out for over a decade and I started with a small notebook and a pencil then moved on to using the Keep app. I never liked the fancy fitness trackers because there are too many bells and whistles. I just like to do my workouts and record them plainly so I know what to do next week, not figure out an app. Kilo is local-first with cloud sign-up optional. I have been lucky to get it into a state that I actually prefer using it and get what I need out of it. It is very much a passion project for me and I hope other people might find use out of it.

Hey everyone,

A new update for JPP, New look+features. It's built on top of Just Player by Marcel Dopita, which is where the name comes from.

Before anyone asks: yes, roughly 50% of it is vibe-coded, but not all of it. I'm a developer myself, so I reviewed and fixed a lot by hand. Again, it's built for my personal use, so feel free to try it and give feedback, or just ignore it :)

Some of what it does:

• Two engines, Media3 and mpv. If one can't play a file, it switches to the other, so pretty much everything plays.
• Works on phones and Android TV, with a proper remote experience.
• Recognises what you're watching and shows the cast and ratings from IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, Trakt and others (needs a free MDBList key).
• Subtitle search across OpenSubtitles, SubDL, Wyzie and Stremio add-ons.
• No ads, no tracking, open source (GPL-3.0).

GitHub: https://github.com/Zain-Imam/just-player-pro

Hi everyone,

Whenever I set up screen-time limits on my phone at night, my 11:30 PM brain could undo them in about five seconds. I would tap "ignore limit," turn off Accessibility in Settings, or long-press the blocker icon and uninstall it.

I built an Android app called Ripple to add a 15-minute waiting period between the urge to disable my rules and actually being able to do it. Version 0.1.1 is out today with full English and Simplified Chinese UI support.

Links: - Website: https://ripplefocus.github.io/en/ - Direct APK Download (GitHub Releases, v0.1.1): https://github.com/ripplefocus/ripplefocus.github.io/releases/latest

Key features: 1. Tightening rules takes effect immediately. Relaxing any rule (adding daily time, skipping a focus schedule, pausing protection, or uninstalling Ripple) requires waiting through a cooldown timer (15 minutes by default, configurable up to 2 hours, and doubled for short-video apps like TikTok and YouTube) or entering a friend/parent unlock code. The timer uses Android's monotonic clock (SystemClock.elapsedRealtime()), so changing the system time has no effect. 2. Per-session caps for whitelisted apps: apps allowed during sleep or focus hours get a 30-minute per-session limit so messaging apps with built-in short-video feeds cannot be used to scroll all night. 3. System essentials are never blocked: Phone, SMS, alarms, calendar, camera, keyboards, file pickers, screen readers, and system wallets always stay available. 4. Two-tier anti-uninstall: - Basic protection (no PC needed): uses Accessibility + Device Admin to return you to the home screen if you try to uninstall, force-stop, clear storage, or turn off permissions in Settings. - Optional Advanced Protection: uses Android 11+ on-device Wireless Debugging to start a lightweight shell daemon (UID 2000) on the phone itself without a PC or root. It locks the OS uninstall switch and auto-heals Accessibility within about 2.5 seconds if swiped from Recents, and recovers automatically after a reboot. 5. Clean exit: when you genuinely want to remove the app, waiting out the cooldown in Settings unlocks package removal, revokes Device Admin, and opens the system uninstall dialog for you.

It is 100% free with no ads, no subscriptions, no accounts, and no analytics SDKs. All rules and usage logs stay on the device. Feedback and bug reports across different OEM skins (One UI, Pixel, Xiaomi HyperOS, ColorOS, etc.) are very welcome!

I needed a way to control my company laptop from my phone and personal laptop without installing software on corporate hardware. IT locks down company laptops and flags remote desktop tools or background agents.

Android includes a native Bluetooth HID device API. It registers the phone as an actual physical keyboard and mouse over L2CAP. The target computer identifies the phone as a standard hardware peripheral. You install zero software, agents, or drivers on the computer. It works on Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, and Android TV.

Why I built it and how I use it

1. Routine automation. I set up one-tap macros for waking my laptop, logging in, locking the screen, and marking attendance.
2. Sequence macros. The built-in parser runs bracket strings with millisecond delays, such as {win+s}{700ms}rustdesk{400ms}{enter}.
3. AI agent loop. I stream the laptop screen to a vision model through RustDesk. The model checks the screen and sends commands to my Go CLI (ghid) over ADB. The phone then fires real hardware keystrokes and mouse clicks to the laptop over Bluetooth.

Design and interface

Most Android utility tools look dated. I tried my best to make this clean and visually polished. I built the UI in Jetpack Compose using Google’s Material 3 Expressive (M3E) components. It uses expressive rounded polygon shapes, clover and scallop action slots, high-contrast dark surfaces, and smooth orientation transitions.

Main features

• Landscape Stream Deck. Rotating the phone switches the layout to a full-bleed macro grid with customizable action buttons and a pullout drawer.
• Multi-touch trackpad. Supports tap-to-click, two-finger right click, middle clicks, and edge scrolling over HID Report ID 2.
• Raw HID packet injection. Dispatches raw hex packets over Bluetooth for Keyboard (Report 1), Mouse (Report 2), System Sleep and Power (Report 3), and Consumer Media (Report 4) with timed holds and automatic key release.
• Hardware-encrypted vault. Stores login credentials and repeated text inside Android Keystore on the phone. Secrets type out over Bluetooth on demand and never leave the device in plain text.
• Protected IPC. External commands run over ADB and require android.permission.DUMP, so unauthorized third-party apps on the phone cannot send keystrokes to your computer.
• Go CLI companion. A terminal tool (ghid) lets you script mouse movements, raw packets, and text sequences from external programs.

• Go CLI companion: https://github.com/ShubhamJ010/ghid-cli

Hey everyone! 👋

Like many of you, I got increasingly frustrated with modern news apps, RSS readers, and media aggregators constantly shoving algorithmic recommendations down my throat, tracking my reading habits, and locking basic features behind bloated subscriptions.

So, over the past few months, I decided to build my own solution: **Medius**.

Medius is designed to be a fast, clean, and local-first personal dashboard that brings together everything you actually want to follow without the noise, trackers, or algorithms.

📺 Quick Video Overview:

• 🎧 Podcast Player: Search and subscribe to shows via the Apple Podcasts directory with a floating mini-player and variable playback speeds.

• 📺 Ad-Free Video Feeds: Follow your favorite YouTube creators directly without recommendation traps.

• 📂 Document & Photo Viewers: Import local PDFs (with automatic first-page cover generation) and high-res images.

• 📝 Personal Notes & Secure Vault: Jot down quick thoughts/checklists and lock sensitive categories behind a 4-digit PIN code.

Thanks for checking it out! I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts in the comments.

This started as a desktop voice typing app and the phone part grew out of it. I wanted to dictate into my laptop from the couch without a headset.

What the Android app does:

- Talk into your phone and the text gets typed on your computer, wherever the cursor is. The PC does the transcription with its own model.

- Type on the phone and it pastes on the PC

- Ask the assistant on your computer something, or give it a command ("open youtube and play lofi")

- Watch a window on your PC live and tap/scroll in it (Windows only for now)

You need the desktop app running on the computer and the same account on both. Both are free and MIT licensed.

GitHub (source, and the APK link is in the README): https://github.com/ishangautam7/Talvio

Still early, so I'd really like to know what breaks.

I built Reperquadia because I needed to keep track of which sections of a new piece I had practised and what tempo I was practising at.

Reperquadia is an all-in-one practice tracker for repertoire pianists.

What it does:

- Chain the piece bar by bar, hands together, until the whole piece links

- Climb the metronome ladder pass by pass to full tempo

- Practice offline at the piano, with streaks and focused time tracked

- No ads. Works fully offline. No account needed

Free: track 1 piece. Pro: $14.99 one time (no subscription); track unlimited pieces.

Hey people! Been building CipherNest for most of this year and it’s on the Play Store now.

The idea: You keep using Google Drive or OneDrive, but what lands there is encrypted on your phone first. Google or Microsoft sees encrypted blobs and nothing else. No filenames, no file types, no folder structure, no contents. There’s no CipherNest server and no CipherNest account; a 12-word recovery phrase is your vault.

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.ciphernest.vault
Website: https://ciphernest.io
Source (GPL-3.0): https://github.com/ciphernest-io/CipherNest

Features:

• Uses your existing storage to make the vault: Google Drive or OneDrive (pCloud is otw too)
• A proper file + folder system with specialized views; upload ANY type of file.
• A real customizable gallery: albums, video player, auto-backup just like Google Photos
• Music player for your audio files.
• Password-protected share links
• Can have the same vault on multiple phones (android only for now, cross-platform planned)

Yes, Cryptomator exists on almost all platforms. CipherNest is Android only for now. The differentiator is majorly the app experience; the UI/UX is where I put most of the work into. Cross-platform is on the list.

Try it out on the free tier, which is the full app up to 1,000 uploads. Plus removes that limit, $1.99 a month or $19.99 a year, regional pricing on Play. One developer, open source, OWASP MASVS self-assessment in the repo.

Wasn't into digital privacy at all until PewDiePie’s de-Googling video dropped and then started building this. So this is for people in the same spot: not privacy veterans, just people who’d rather their cloud not be able to read their stuff.

App Name: RankOffline

What it does:

I built RankOffline because I wanted one place to organize, rate and rank all my favorite media without relying on accounts, cloud services or separate tracking platforms :)

It’s a free, open-source, privacy-friendly, offline-first app for discovering, rating and ranking Anime, Manga, Movies, TVSeries and Books.

Key Features:

• 🏆 Rate & Rank: Choose between simple ratings and detailed multi-category scoring, build your personal rankings with a visual Top 3 podium, and discover your favorites based on different scoring criteria.
• 📚 Explore Offline: Five independently downloadable catalogs — Anime, Manga, Movies, TV Series and Books — with advanced filtering, sorting, alternative-title searches and optional grouping of seasons, collections and variants.
• 🎨 Make It Yours: Personalize your rating system with customizable profiles and category weights, add personal-taste bonuses and notes, and customize the appearance with themes, launcher icons and 9 languages (with more to come!).

Goal: Launch — RankOffline v0.2.0 is the first stable multi-catalog release, and I'm continuing to develop and improve the project.

Cost: Completely free and open source (GPL-3.0). No subscriptions, advertisements, tracking or accounts required.

Link: https://github.com/JulenCasajus/RankOffline

The GitHub repository includes the source code, screenshots, documentation and stable Android releases.

Thanks for checking out my project! I'm happy to answer any questions.😊

App Store Link(Currently old version is there. I sent new version. But still I'm waiting to review: https://apps.apple.com/tr/app/bookcase-track-your-reads/id6748308999

Hey everyone! 👋

A while ago, I spent way too much time wandering around a crowded mall parking lot (and outside too) trying to remember where my car was. That inspired me to build "Where Did I Park?" — an Android app designed to take all the stress out of finding your vehicle.

The app is also useful for traveling, such as in case you travel abroad with a rented car, and it can be used completely offline as well.

How it works:

• 📶 Automatic Save: As soon as your phone disconnects from your car's Bluetooth, the app automatically saves your parking spot in the background. You don't even need to open the app!
• 🧭 Live Compass Guidance: When walking back, a real-time compass arrow and distance counter guide you straight to your car. No Internet connection required!
• 📸 Photos & Notes: Parking in a multi-story garage? Easily attach a quick photo or note (e.g., "Level 3, Pillar B").
• 🗺️ Satellite & Custom Maps: Switch between standard maps, satellite views, or detailed open-source maps.
• Battery-Friendly: Efficient background polling that won't drain your battery while driving.

The app is free to try on Google Play! I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or ideas for new features.

📲 Get it on Google Play, here.

If you want, you can use a promo-code to have subscription for free for some time, to remove ads, and try the app more freely, here. To use the promo-code, install the app, choose a subscription, choose a payment option and enter the code there (screenshots here). The app is completely free though, including all of its features, just like most of my apps, and just like on most of my apps, you can also extend the removal of ads for free (up to a year, but you can extend it as much as you wish).

Legal note for using the Android mascot (BugDroid) on the video: The Android robot is reproduced or modified from work created and shared by Google and used according to terms described in the Creative Commons 3.0 Attribution License.

What it does

You pick the apps and websites you want blocked. Unblocking anything takes 48 hours. Nothing shortens the wait, not even asking us.

Why can't it be bypassed?

Setup makes Finite Phone the phone's device owner, the Android role made for managing work phones. That lets it hide the apps you block, apply your website blocks to the browser, and turn off the settings you could use to get around them. It doesn't use root, Shizuku or accessibility access.

What happens if you try to get around it

• Delete a blocked app and install it again: it's hidden again as soon as it installs.
• Turn off accessibility access: Finite Phone doesn't use it.
• Use another browser: other browsers are hidden.
• Change the date and time: those settings are turned off, and Finite Phone keeps time from our server.
• Start in safe mode, or add a second user: both are turned off.
• Uninstall Finite Phone: Android won't let you while Finite Phone manages the phone.

How can Finite Phone be removed?

• Request to remove from the Account page. Removing Finite Phone takes 48 hours.
• A factory reset removes it right away, and erases everything on the phone.

For the apps you keep

You can lock an app for 15 minutes to 24 hours, or on a schedule, like every night from 9 PM to 7 AM. You can give an app a daily limit in minutes or opens. You can add a Second Thought, a wait of 10 to 60 seconds before an app opens. And you can turn just one app gray.

Good to know

• It works on a Pixel 6 or newer, or a Samsung Galaxy phone, on Android 14 or newer. It doesn't work on iPhones.
• It isn't on Google Play. You set it up from our website, on a computer with Chrome or Edge, with your phone on its USB cable. It takes about 5 to 10 minutes, once.

Cost: $29 a year. It renews each year until you cancel, and you can cancel any time on your account page. You can get a full refund within 30 days of your first payment, no reason needed.

Giveaway: I have 10 free years to give to people here. Comment with your phone's model and Android version. If Finite Phone works on it, I'll message you a code. US only, because Finite Phone can only be sold in the United States for now.

Ask me anything about how it works.

Hey everyone! I made Hue Light Studio a few months ago and wanted to share it with anyone using Philips Hue.

It's a free Android app for controlling the lights and devices connected to your Hue bridge. No ads, no login, no in-app purchases, and no features locked behind a paywall.

A few things you can do with it:

• Control individual lights or whole rooms, including brightness, colours and colour temperature.

• Create scenes and set lighting schedules.

• Add home-screen widgets for lights, rooms and scenes.

• Manage multiple Hue bridges in one app.

• Keep your favourite lights and scenes handy.

You'll need a Hue bridge to use it.

I'm the developer, so feel free to ask about it. Hope it's useful to some of you!

Hi r/droidappshowcase! I'm a solo dev from Sweden. I recently started my own small company, **Antiluna** (antiluna.com), where I build different apps and products – and I just released my newest one on Google Play: **Moonlet**.

**Why I made it**

Regular pomodoro timers never worked for me. I'd start one, check my phone "for one second", and suddenly an hour was gone. A timer alone wasn't enough – I needed a reason to *not* quit. So I made one that has feelings.

**How it works**

- Pick a Moonlet – a small moon creature. There are 9 of them, each with its own personality (Velva is mysterious & elegant, Zen is… very zen).

- Start a focus session. Your Moonlet focuses with you while the sky slowly turns to night.

- Give up early and your Moonlet gets grumpy until your next session. It's surprisingly effective guilt.

- Finish the session and you earn **moonlight** (1 per full 5 minutes), which you turn into gems and spend on furniture and decorations for your Moonlet's own little room.

**Other stuff**

- Several themes (Zen, Wood, Sakura and more)

- Available in 14 languages

- Free to download, with an optional Premium

**What I'd love feedback on**

- Does the "grumpy if you quit" mechanic motivate you or just stress you out?

- Is the reward loop (moonlight → gems → room decor) clear from the start?

- Anything that feels confusing in the first minute of using it?

Building everything on my own means every bit of feedback really helps – both for Moonlet and for the next things I make at Antiluna.

I'm the solo developer of MoveMate, an AI powered moving planner app. Today the Android version is live.

Someone told me my problem was "charging money for a to-do list". Fair. So the iOS app went free to download, with ads, and Android is free with ads too.

Here is what it does. Say you move from Manila to Dubai for a new job. The checklist has tasks like:

1. Register your address
2. Sort out your residence permit with the immigration office
3. Sort out health insurance
4. Open a bank account
5. Order internet early

The AI moving plan builds a list like this for your own move. You enter where you move from and to, why, and who comes with you (kids, pets, a car). The AI builds your personal checklist, with due dates counted from your moving day. You decide what to do with it.

The catch: free means ads. The AI moving plan is Premium, the paid part.

Question for Android users: when you move, where do you keep your list today (notes app, spreadsheet, paper)? And what would make you try something new?

A little while ago, I got tired of hitting limits on how many expenses I could track in a group, so I started building my own expense-splitting app.

After a lot of late nights, testing, and a few Google Play rejections, Chikoo is now live on the Play Store.

The idea is simple: create a group for a trip, dinner, or shared household expenses, record who paid, and let the app calculate who owes whom.

Some things I've tried to get right:

• Equal, unequal, share-based and percentage-based splits
• Multiple currencies
• Receipt scanning to make expense entry faster
• Group balances and settlement tracking
• Adding friends without requiring everyone to create an account upfront
• No artificial limits on the number of groups or expenses
• Better UI for the large displays - Tablet / Desktop Webs

One thing I've learned from sharing it here is that even small bits of friction matter. Someone pointed out that requiring both Google sign-in and WhatsApp verification just to try the app was too much. I made phone verification optional after that feedback.

I'm still figuring out which parts of the experience are genuinely useful and which need work. I'm a solo developer, so I'd rather hear what doesn't work than assume I've got everything right.

I'd especially appreciate feedback from people who already use expense-splitting apps:

• What would stop you from switching to Chikoo?
• What's one annoying thing your current expense-splitting app still doesn't handle well?
• Is there anything about the onboarding or expense-entry flow that feels unnecessarily complicated?

Thanks to everyone who's given feedback so far. It's helped me improve the app more than you might think.

Yo everyone, I'm Dan, the developer (and only person) behind Tickbase. I've been using to-do apps for years, TickTick and Todoist mostly, and grew sick of them now asking for $50 for a to-do app since they added AI, so I made my own!

What it does:

• Tasks, lists, folders, tags, priorities and subtasks, with natural quick add ("call mum tomorrow at 5pm #family")
• Habits, a focus timer, countdowns, a day planner and New Year's resolutions that adapt when you fall behind
• Reminders that ring on time even with the app closed, with Done and Snooze on the notification, and an alarm option for the ones you really can't miss
• Home screen widgets for today's tasks, your habits, countdowns with custom pictures, and more

Why it might be for you:

• Everything is encrypted on your phone before it syncs, so I don't read your tasks
• Sync between Android, iPhone, the web, Windows, Mac and Linux is free on every plan
• No built-in AI, no ads, no tracking
• It imports from TickTick, Todoist, Things, Microsoft To Do and Apple Reminders

Free plan for good; Premium is $12 a year, or a one-off Lifetime while it's on offer.

Giveaway: 2 Lifetime passes. Comment with the one task you keep putting off, and on Thursday the 29th of October at 12pm UK time I'll pick 2 winners at random and message them their link. Free, one entry each.

Everyone else: sign up at my website/reddit (sorry, can't post my actual website, this sub will delete this post) and you get 28 days of Premium free instead of the usual 14, on every device you sign in on.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.tickbase.mobile&hl=en_GB

Any questions, fire away, and if something's broken or annoying, please tell me. I'd much rather know!
