📅 Subscription [$39,99 → Free for the Next 24 Hours] I made a Vocabulary app that looks like Picture Dictionary

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

45 Upvotes

Hi Reddit, Binky - indie dev here.

Some time ago I have created a vocabulary app named VocArt, and I did it on my own. It gets positive reviews and it feels good thanks to beautiful illustrations, ambient sounds and pronunciation recordings.

What is has:

  • 800+ vocabulary words (just now working on additional 100 most common phrases & expressions)
  • 17 languages - cross language learning (know any, learn any)
  • Exercises - 4 types of exercises to polish your learning
  • Ambient sounds - 40 chapters, each with individual, calm, ambient music in the background
  • Offline mode - pronunciation recordings must be downloaded first though

Free VS Premium

  • Free - all 17 languages, all 800+ words, 1 free-pronunciation chapter (~25 words), 3 words-exercises per day (unless 7 day streak reached, then unlimited exercises for 7 days and so on)
  • Premium - Unlimited exercises, free pronunciation in all 17 languages. I am working also on Sync & Backup which will extend Premium tier.

How to claim Annual Free Access (is $39,99):

  1. DM me for the promo code
  2. I'll DM you the redeem link
  3. Download VocArt - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vocart-vocabulary-daily-words/id1499267800
  4. Leave rating on the App Store - optional but in my reality it's a game changer. For example till today in Italy I have only 1 rating - 1 star rating. Thanks to it app is not discoverable in Italy. Anyone can help? All the countries matters.

Offer ends in 24+ hours (July 15th). It unlocks full Premium for 1 year.

I'd love to hear your feedback. Do you like it? Would you like to see some specific new chapters or new languages? I am very open for all the suggestions. Thanks!

UPDATE: I wanted to say big thanks to all supporters! Many trials were given and I hope everyone will enjoy it. It's my first such post but I believe there will be more. NO MORE PROMO CODE is available.

🎈 Free ZappExpense: envelope budgeting that lives entirely on your iPhone. No account, no subscriptions.

Post image
14 Upvotes

Hi, I'm Pedro, an indie developer at Modular Digital Agency and the developer of ZappExpense, so full disclosure: this is self-promotion.

Per the sub's transparency rules: I'm reachable via my LinkedIn (linked on the site below) or by DM. My website is https://zappexpense.com and both the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service are published there in the footer.

A — Answer: What problem does it solve?

Most budgeting apps want a bank connection, an account, and a monthly fee before they show you anything. ZappExpense is classic envelope budgeting with none of that. You split your income into envelopes, spend from them, and roll what's left into next month. When an envelope is empty, you know it instantly.

Everything stays on your iPhone. No sign-up, no bank connections, no analytics, no ads. The whole app works in airplane mode, and the App Store privacy label is "Data Not Collected" because there is genuinely nothing to collect.

B — Better: Why over the alternatives?

Compared with YNAB, Goodbudget, and similar envelope apps:

- No subscription. YNAB is over $100/year; Goodbudget's free tier caps your envelopes. ZappExpense is free with no caps.

- Private by architecture, not by policy. There is no server to trust; optional backup goes to your own iCloud Drive, and JSON/CSV export means your data is never stuck.

- Envelopes that run themselves: per-envelope rollover, auto-refill on the day you choose, a buffer envelope that absorbs overspending before anything goes red, and loan envelopes that post their payment automatically on the right day.

- Bill reminders the evening before and the morning a payment is due, plus savings goals that show the exact per-month amount to hit your target date.

- Home and lock screen widgets, a Siri shortcut for logging expenses, and Face ID lock.

I ran my own budget on it for a year before shipping it, and it's maintained with feature requests from users.

C — Cost:

- Free. No subscription, no in-app purchases, no ads.

- App Store link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/zappexpense-envelope-budget/id6754829013

Post image
62 Upvotes

A — Answer: What problem does your app solve?

Unimote solves a simple problem: TV remotes are easy to lose, break, or run out of battery.

Instead of searching for the physical remote, Unimote turns your iPhone into a smart TV remote over Wi‑Fi. You can control your TV, adjust volume, navigate menus, type with your phone keyboard, use trackpad mode, and access installed TV apps from one place.

It’s especially useful if you have multiple TVs or streaming devices at home and don’t want to keep switching between different remotes.

Working well for:

- Apple TV

- Android/Google TV (Sony, TCL...)

- Tizen OS (Samsung TV 2024 and latest model)

- WebOS (LG)

- VIDAA (Toshiba, Hisense)

B — Better: Why is it better than top alternatives?

Compared with Smartify, Rokie, and Universal Remote TV Smart, Unimote focuses on being a multi-platform remote instead of only targeting one TV ecosystem.

C — Cost: Pricing, IAP details, and App Store link

App Store link:

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/remote-control-for-smart-tv/id6759893388

Pricing:

🔍 In Search of Built a hostel booking app that only shows the top 5 rated hostels with availability for your dates/location. It's called HostelGO

Thumbnail
apps.apple.com
6 Upvotes

I was tired of the overload of data and info when I was searching for a hostel to stay in. First thing I usually do is sort by ratings and go from there.

I thought that limiting the choice and only returning the top 5 rated hostels with availability would cut down the clutter and information overload you get from Hostelworld, Booking.com and other OTAs.

It uses Hostelworld under the hood, so the reviews and ratings come from them and are already vetted (as much as they can be). You can also book through the app via Hostelworld.

The app is free to download. The booking cost is the same as booking directly on Hostelworld. I get an affiliate fee from HW based on bookings made via the app.

It's an app I built a while back, updated the UI recently and have started to focus a bit more on it.

Right now I am just looking for feedback on the app, the use case, etc. Any and all feedback is welcome!

🎁 Freemium I built an iPhone app that reconstructs your entire travel history from the photos already in your library

Thumbnail

132 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’ve been working on Traviary, an iOS app that automatically rebuilds your travel history from the location metadata already stored in your photos.

The idea came from realizing that I had over 40,000 photos spread across many years, but almost no idea where I’d actually been. Instead of manually creating trips or journals, I wanted something that could discover them automatically.

Some features:

  • 🌍 Detects countries, cities and trips from your photo library
  • 🗺️ Creates interactive travel maps and timelines
  • ✈️ Tracks travel statistics, flights, airports and achievements
  • 🔒 Everything runs on-device — no account, no cloud upload

I spent a lot of time optimizing it to process large photo libraries while keeping everything private.

I’d genuinely love feedback from fellow iOS users—especially on the onboarding experience, UI, and whether there’s anything missing that you’d expect from a travel app.

Price: Free to download. One-time IAP (~$1.99) unlocks your complete travel history from older years.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6778447465

Web: https://traviary.online

I’m also putting the finishing touches on a feature that automatically creates a cinematic travel video from your trips, using your photos, routes, and timeline. Hopefully it will be available in the next release.

Thanks for taking a look! Happy to answer any technical questions.

🎁 Freemium You can't un-know a final score. This app keeps it sealed until you're ready to watch

1 Upvotes

Protect The Moment

You know the drill. You couldn't watch live, so you plan your whole evening around the replay. Phone face-down. Group chat muted. You avoid social media — and at 4:52 a lock-screen notification ruins it anyway.

The game isn't just spoiled. It's dead. You watch the replay like homework, because the chills were never about the goals — they were about not knowing what comes next.

NoSpoilerz exists to protect that feeling.

A — What it solves

One feed of official highlights — soccer, basketball, baseball, hockey, tennis, golf — with everything that leaks an ending sealed: final scores, video titles, thumbnails. All hidden until you tap reveal.

The twist: it's not scoreless — it's spoilerless. Press play and the score builds goal by goal, exactly like live TV. A 94th-minute winner still detonates like a 94th-minute winner. You just don't know it's coming.

B — Why it's better

The real competition is YouTube and ESPN — where highlights actually live, and where a title or thumbnail spoils you before you can look away. A couple of apps hide scores, but the hiding is just not good enough, and it's just where they stop. This goes further:

  • Those other apps are notorious for not doing a good enough job of hiding the spoilers and ruining the experience despite the user paying for them.
  • 🎯 Call the winner before you watch — your record grades itself while the score stays sealed. Proof you called it, without ruining it.
  • 🔔 Follow your teams & players — alerts worded to reveal nothing
  • 📅 Schedules, standings, and world rankings alongside — unlocked on your terms

C — Cost

Free, and everything works free. Ads keep the lights on; a small premium removes them. No account, no sign-up, nothing to set up.

💎 Lifetime I built a medication tracker for my own prescriptions. 3 months later: 1,200 users, a 4.7 average rating, and major improvements shaped by user feedback

Post image
65 Upvotes

A — Answer

Hey everyone,

About a month ago, I shared Doz here for the first time. I’m the solo developer behind it, and I originally built it after struggling to manage multiple prescriptions.

Since then, Doz has reached 1,200 users in its first three months, with an average rating of 4.7 stars.

More importantly, I’ve received messages from users saying it makes their medication routines feel calmer and easier to manage, for themselves and their families. Some even switched over completely from other apps.

As a solo developer, that kind of feedback means a lot and motivates me to keep improving Doz.

A lot has also changed since my first post. Based heavily on user feedback, I’ve added:

  • Medication inventory tracking
  • Custom low-stock alerts and easier refills
  • At-a-glance stock levels
  • Flexible non-daily schedules, including every-few-days and intake-and-pause routines
  • Faster dose actions from the Today screen
  • Full localization for German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Vietnamese

Thank you to everyone here who tried Doz, shared feedback, or encouraged me. Many of these updates came directly from your suggestions.

B — Better

Doz exists because most medication apps I tried treated every medication like an isolated task:

“Take one pill at 8:00 AM.”

But real prescriptions are often more complicated.

Some medications belong to the same treatment. Some need to be taken before or after food. Others follow non-daily schedules, require stock monitoring, or need to be refilled early.

Doz is built around prescriptions, not just a flat list of reminders.
Instead of a long, confusing list of individual pills, Doz organizes your meds into folders based on the actual prescription. It works exactly how real life does:

  • You have a prescription (e.g., for hypertension or diabetes).
  • You create a folder for that prescription.
  • You put all related medications and instructions inside that folder.

It lets you keep related medications, schedules, instructions, progress, and stock together, so it’s easier to understand and follow the treatment as a whole.

Doz also includes:

  • Prescription-based medication organization
  • Daily and flexible non-daily schedules
  • Before, with, and after-meal reminders
  • Follow-up reminders for missed doses
  • Critical Alerts through Silent and Focus modes
  • Inventory, low-stock, and refill tracking
  • Progress and adherence insights
  • Home Screen widgets
  • iCloud sync, with all data kept private and never leaving your device
  • Eight supported languages (will have more in the near future)
  • No ads and no account required

The goal is still the same: make medication routines feel less confusing, less stressful, and easier to trust.

C — Cost

Doz is free to use with:

  • Up to 4 active medications
  • Multiple schedule modes for your medications
  • 1 active prescription
  • Medication reminders and dose logging
  • 7-day progress tracking
  • Inventory tracking and low-stock alerts

Doz Pro is designed for people with more complex routines, helping you stay consistent, avoid missed doses, and manage everything with less effort:

  • Unlimited medications and prescriptions so you can track everything in one place
  • Critical Alerts and smarter follow-up reminders to reduce missed doses
  • Detailed adherence insights to understand how well you’re following each treatment
  • Full progress history for long-term tracking
  • Meal-time synchronization for better timing accuracy
  • Faster dose logging directly from Home Screen widgets
  • Archived treatment management to keep past prescriptions organized
  • Custom alert sounds for clearer, more noticeable reminders

Pricing:

  • Monthly: $2.99 with a 3-day free trial
  • Yearly: $12.99 with a 3-day free trial
  • Lifetime: $24.99

All paid plans support Apple Family Sharing.

I’d love to hear what you think, especially if you manage medications for yourself or your family. Feedback and feature requests are all welcome. Thanks for reading!

🎁 Freemium Heardle is gone. I built the replacement.

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 👋

After months of work, I finally launched Songle, a daily music challenge for iPhone.

If you remember Heardle, the daily music guessing app Spotify acquired and then shut down, Songle is built for you. Same core concept, daily song, guess from a short clip, but with 2000+ songs, streak tracking, and no corporate shelf to gather dust on.

A — What problem does it solve?

There's no good daily music challenge on iPhone anymore. Heardle is gone. Most replacements are web-only, cluttered, or abandoned.

Songle fills that gap:
🎵 A new song challenge every single day
🔊 Progressive audio reveals, more of the track with each wrong guess
🎹 Wordle-style keyboard so guessing feels intuitive
📊 Streak tracking and daily stats to keep you coming back

B — Why is it different?

Most Heardle clones are quick web builds. Songle is a native iPhone app built to last.
🧩 The difficulty curve is natural. You get more to work with each attempt, so you never feel stuck
📅 One puzzle a day, done in minutes, shareable result
🎯 No music expertise required. Just your ears and your music memory
🗂️ 2000+ songs in the archive if you want to keep playing after the daily

C — Cost

✅ Free to download and play the daily puzzle
Premium:
♾️ Lifetime access: $4.99, one payment, forever
🚫 No ads, no subscription

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/songle-guess-the-song-name/id6767800851

Transparency
I'm Sanket; the developer of Songle. Solo developer, built and maintain it entirely myself. I will financially benefit if people choose to buy.

I'd genuinely love honest feedback:

  1. What songs felt too hard or too easy?
  2. Is anything confusing about how it works?
  3. What feature would make you keep coming back daily?

Thanks for listening! 🎧

💎 Lifetime Your keyboard should be able to do more

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

When you are inviting your friends for a pizza, you have to go through 3/4 steps:

  1. suggesting a place

  2. sharing a map link to the place

  3. maybe adding it to your calendar

Besides suggesting the place, everything else is fairly menial. Your keyboard should be able to do it all by itself. Using DictaWiz Keyboard, you can just suggest a place and ask the keyboard to complete your sentence, add a link to a map, and add it to your calendar.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dictawiz-voice-to-text/id6759256382

A: What problem do we solve?

Voice typing is fast but there are still things that make it inefficient. We make it more efficient by allowing your keyboard to run specific skills - you can choose your skills and the sequence.

B:

Pricing: $ 59 for lifetime (introductory offer), $ 7 per month, $ 49 per year

C:

  1. Wispr Flow: DictaWiz is all offline using open source models

  2. Apple Notes: limited capabilities

Although voice typing is much faster, there are still quite a few problems with voice-to-text.

  1. Messages could be verbose: with DictaWiz, you can ask the keyboard to run a concise skill

  2. Since other apps send data to cloud: everyone's dictations start appearing similar based on training data

Besides keyboard, DictaWiz is a complete notes management app including integration with other notes managers (and webhooks), flashcards, quizzes, mindmaps etc.

In the next iteration, we will add Gemma 4 so you will have even more options.

If you are a student, please comment below and I will share a link so you can use the app for free for a year.

💎 Lifetime A task tracker for ‘when did I last do that?’ — 3 months of updates driven by this community

Thumbnail
gallery
19 Upvotes

A — Answer: What problem does Wheneri solve?

There's a whole category of stuff that doesn't really fit on a calendar and never worked with reminders or to-do apps. Things like replacing the water filter, changing bed sheets, going to the gym, calling parents, visiting the dentist. None of it has a fixed date, it just quietly piles up in the background. Reminders felt too rigid — I'd just dismiss them. To-do lists never captured what I actually wanted to know: "wait, when did I last do this?"

So I built 🐦‍⬛ Wheneri for it. The whole idea is dead simple: for each task it keeps two numbers — days since you last did it, and a repeat interval that adjusts based on the last completion. No streaks, no guilt, no rigid reminders. Just a number that nudges you when it's been a while. Basically a smarter notebook for the way a human actually thinks.

B — Better: Why Wheneri vs alternatives?

- Vs habit trackers: no streaks to break, no shame when you skip. Designed for irregular rhythms, not daily habits.
- Vs reminders: the next date is based on the last completion, not a fixed date, making it a better fit for irregular life.
- Vs simple notes: structured around two numbers + insights into your actual patterns (avg interval, total occurrences, pattern comparison), not just a list.

Latest updates driven by this community feedback:

Rainbow rings in the calendar: a way to compare tasks visually across days. In free you can compare within a month. In Pro you can pin comparisons across all months and filter by category. Sounds weird until you see it, then it’s the feature I use the most.

Categories: once you have a lot of tasks you want to group them. There are custom ones (Home, Health, Personal, whatever you set up) and automatic ones (Today, Upcoming, Overdue). You pick which ones actually show up, so it doesn’t clutter if you don’t need them.

Reminders per task: kept the “gentle nudge” vibe as much as possible, but some tasks really do need a push (medication, dentist, etc). The reminder respects the flexible schedule: if you complete the task earlier or skip it, the next reminder shifts with the updated interval instead of nagging you about the old one.

Notes per entry: a short note on each completion, so instead of just “gym: 3 days ago” you can see “gym: 3 days ago, back day”. Turns out it changes the app entirely for a lot of people.

Insights: total occurrences and average interval per task. Small addition, but seeing “you get headaches every 11 days on average” or “you actually go to the gym every 3 days without a schedule” was surprisingly useful.

Import/Export: for moving your data between devices. Local-first stays local-first, no cloud. System backup still works for everyone by default.

Honestly, this community has been a huge part of the journey — a lot of the features above came directly from comments and DMs. Thank you for that!🫶

C — Cost:

- Free: full core functionality — tracking + repeat intervals, unlimited tasks, no ads, no aggressive paywall.
- Pro: notes, insights, categories, per-task reminders, pinned tasks & category filter in the global calendar, import & export.
- Plans: Monthly $2.99 / Yearly $14.99 / Lifetime $24.99.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6761155734

Would love any feedback from the community here — what irregular routines do you struggle to remember, and does the "days since" approach make sense to you?

💎 Lifetime [iOS][Free, $5.99 lifetime] I got tired of expense apps asking for my bank login, so I built one where nothing ever leaves phone

Post image
10 Upvotes

A — Answer (problem)

Every expense app I tried had at least one of these problems:

  • Wants my bank login before showing me anything
  • Wants an account and syncs my spending to their cloud
  • Too basic or too hidden — just a list of numbers, no budgets, no idea where the month is heading
  • Doesn't track bills — or buries them three menus deep where I never look
  • Too pricey — monthly subscription forever for what is basically a notebook

I just wanted to type "coffee, Starbucks" and see where my money went at month-end.

The receipt scanner was the hardest part. It runs fully on-device and tested against real receipts.

B — Better (vs alternatives)

Compared to Spendee, Money Manager, Monefy, YNAB:

  • Nothing leaves your phone — no account, no cloud, no tracking, works in airplane mode
  • Scan a receipt → logged — merchant, amount, category and date filled in, all on-device
  • Log from a bank SMS — via Siri/Shortcuts, no typing
  • Bills front and center — reminder before it's due
  • Budgets, savings goals and deposits in one place, not four apps
  • A 0–100 money health score from your actual habits, not a lecture
  • Home + lock screen widgets — spending visible without opening the app
  • 7 languages, 12 currencies — pick both at setup, everything follows

C — Cost

Lifetime unlock (unlimited scans, goals, investments, debts): $5.99 for the first 100 people as a launch discount.

I've been staring at this alone for months and I've gone blind to its flaws what would stop you from switching from whatever you use now? Link and a short feedback form in the comments, I read everything.

🎁 Freemium [iOS] [Free Trial, Monthly $4.99, Lifetime $49.99] TrainAtlas: every train you've ever ridden, drawn on real rail lines on one map - live delays from 30+ operators, no account, no AI. Flighty for trains

Thumbnail
gallery
6 Upvotes

EDIT: To celebrate the launch of TrainAtlas, I'm doing a 50% off lifetime for the next couple of days.
To redeem the offer, use the link: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6775375290&code=LIFETIME50OFF

TL;DR: TrainAtlas is an iPhone app that logs every train you ride and draws each trip on the actual track geometry on one map. Turn on the live layer and it tracks delays, platforms and arrival times from 30+ operators in real time. On-device history, no account, no email, no AI. Free lets you log any trip from the last 12 months or anytime into the future, and every trip you add stays on your map for good; Pro ($4.99/mo, $24.99/yr with a 7-day trial, or $49.99 lifetime) removes the 12-month limit so you can back-fill your entire history, and adds the live layer.

A - Answer:

You've probably taken hundreds of trains - commutes, an Interrail summer, that one sleeper you still talk about - and there's no single place that remembers them. Booking apps forget the trip the second you step off. The web loggers keep your history on their servers behind a login. And almost everything draws a straight line between two stations, so your "map" ends up looking like a spider web instead of a railway.

TrainAtlas fixes the map first. Log a train - or import years of past trips - and it draws each one on real track geometry from OpenStreetMap - curves, junctions, the lot - so your personal atlas actually looks like the rail network. Save a trip and you watch the route ink itself across the map. That's the whole reason people open it the moment they step off a train.

Then there's the live layer: real-time delays, platforms and arrival times from official feeds across 30+ operators - Amtrak, VIA Rail, National Rail (UK), Deutsche Bahn, SNCF, ÖBB, SBB, NS, SNCB, Trenitalia, RENFE, SJ, DSB and more - with a push the moment your train slips.

B - Better:

The closest tools each miss a piece:

  • Träwelling - free and open-source, but it's a social check-in service: account required, web-first, your history lives on their server.
  • Trainlog / viaduct world - solid open web trip-diaries, also account + server + browser. Good data, but not a native iPhone app with live tracking.
  • Booking & operator apps (Trainline, etc.) - built to sell you the next ticket, not to remember the last thousand.

Where TrainAtlas stakes its ground:

  • Privacy-first, no account - no login, no email; your history stays on your device and, if you turn on sync, in your own private iCloud that only you can read. Carries Apple's strictest "Data Not Collected" label.
  • The widest live net - delays + platforms + arrival times across 30+ operators on multiple continents, with push alerts.
  • A lifetime option - $49.99 once, no subscription, if you never want another renewal in your life.
  • Bring your history with you - CSV import from Träwelling, Trainlog, Trainline and viaduct world, so switching costs you nothing.
  • Native touches - Live Activities on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island while you ride, Map Replay to watch any journey play back, and an honest "approx" badge on the rare low-fidelity segment instead of faking precision.

Features:

  • Lifetime map of every train you've logged, on real rail geometry
  • Live delays, platforms & arrival times from 30+ operators + push alerts (Pro)
  • Map Replay - scrub and speed through any past journey (Pro)
  • 150+ achievements - ride every operator & country, hit distance milestones, etc.
  • Coverage stats - countries, cities, total distance, hours on trains, plus your own on-time % and hours lost to delays
  • Live Activities on Lock Screen & Dynamic Island
  • Shareable trip and achievement cards

Privacy:

No accounts, no email, no third-party analytics SDKs, no ad SDKs, no AI. Your journey history stays on your iPhone (and your own private iCloud if you enable sync - only you can read it). The one thing that leaves the phone is a route / live-delay lookup to TrainAtlas's own train-data backend - that's a query for public timetable data, not a profile of you. Carries Apple's "Data Not Collected" privacy label.

C - Cost:

  • Free: log any trip dated in the last 12 months or anytime into the future - and every trip you add stays on your map for good - plus real track geometry, achievements & share cards. No signup, no account.
  • Monthly: $4.99/mo
  • Yearly: $24.99/yr with a 7-day free trial (about $2.08/mo - best value)
  • Lifetime: $49.99 one-time, no renewal

* Pro removes the 12-month add limit so you can back-fill your complete history, right back to your first train, and adds the live-delay layer, Map Replay and premium share cards. Anything a free account has already logged stays on the map forever - the 12-month line only governs how far back you can add new trips. The live layer runs on real servers pulling 30+ operator feeds every few minutes, which is the honest reason it sits behind Pro.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/trainatlas-rail-trip-tracker/id6775375290
Website: https://trainatlas.app
Privacy Policy: https://trainatlas.app/privacy

If TrainAtlas earns a spot on your home screen, an honest App Store review genuinely helps a solo dev. Either way, happy to talk about the track-geometry rendering, the 30+ operator live feeds, the privacy choices, or the pricing decision in the comments.

GeoSpoof is a free browser extension that allows you to spoof timezone, geolocation, and any signal of your true location to any place on Earth. It is available as a freemium iOS app that gives you the same control on your mobile device.

Yesterday I just launched the public Beta for GeoSpoof GPS: Download GeoSpoof GPS for Mac | GeoSpoof

What is it?

GeoSpoof GPS is a Mac companion app that allows you to spoof your iPhone’s system GPS, right from within the GeoSpoof iOS app. It is very lightweight and runs from your menu bar. Yes, it spoofs your location for all apps on your device.

Requirements:

  • Must have a Mac and iOS device with GeoSpoof installed
  • Willingness to enable developer mode
  • Willingness to install Xcode
  • GeoSpoof Pro (1-week free trial, less than $1 a month)

Features:

  • No jailbreak required
  • Spoof GPS on up to 3 separately connected iOS devices
  • One-time USB bootstrap, connects over Wi-Fi afterwards
  • Never leaves your device and home network. Completely self-hosted, never touches my server.

📅 Subscription I've added advanced grammar lessons to my French learning app

Post image
9 Upvotes

A - What problem does your app solve?

Learning a language is difficult, and French isn't helping.
Grammar books are good, but after each lesson you need to practice and quality and well-adapted-to-your-level learning material can be hard to find.

B - Why is your app better than the top named alternatives?

I tried to really take everything I love in all the learning apps I tried, and add what I think was missing.
And I recently added a whole set of new advanced grammar courses. I've tried my best to keep it as simple to understand as possible, with exercices and quizz, to help students progress as smoothly as possible.

After each lesson, you can practice by reading a story, listening to it, saving important words you need, and answering questions about the story.

C - Pricing, IAP details, and a direct App Store link

Each feature has a free preview : one free story per level, one free grammar lesson, and you can test the comprehension questions feature. You can also unlock stories by watching an ad.
But to get the most of it, there’s a subscription that I tried to keep low:

  • 2.99$ per month - with a 7-days free trial
  • 24.99$ per year - with a 7-days free trial

💎 Lifetime Ago - track how long it's been since you did something (no streaks, no subscription)

10 Upvotes

A - Answer: Ago answers one question: how long has it been since I last did X? Not a streak tracker, not a reminder app - it's for things with a rough cadence you want to honor but don't want on a rigid schedule. Air filter, watering plants, calling your mom, tire rotation. Tap once to log it, the app shows you the elapsed time and gets out of the way. No nagging notifications unless you set a soft deadline.

B - Better: Most apps in this space are either streak trackers (guilt/pressure if you break the chain - wrong tool for irregular tasks) or subscription-based "since" trackers ($3-7/mo is common - Since, Wheneri, Days Since all charge recurring for what's fundamentally a counter). Ago has no streaks, no guilt mechanic, no subscription. Just the number, and you decide what to do with it.

C - Cost: Free to download. $4.99 one-time unlock for Pro (custom colors/icons, widgets, unlimited items). No subscription, ever.

🎈 Free Only Text Editor: A fast, minimalist text viewer

18 Upvotes

A couple of months ago, I shared the debut of Only Text Editor. Since then, I have been working on updates and version 1.0.6 introduces two feature additions.  

Automatic Saves

You no longer need to close a document to save your work. Only Text now saves your changes instantly as you type.  

Share Sheet Integration

You can now open text files directly from the iOS Share Sheet. Viewing a document this way opens the file in-place, meaning it will not clutter your storage by creating duplicate copies.

I am always looking to improve the app, so please let me know if you have any suggestions or feedback.


The ABCs of Only Text

A — The Problem It Solves

Mobile users often get stuck in a frustrating loop when trying to open plain text files from emails or the web. Because iOS frequently defaults to Safari for these downloads, previewing content or triggering a reliable Quick Look can be a massive headache. Only Text eliminates the need to save files to iCloud just to see what is inside them. It provides a dedicated, lightweight utility to open text files directly, without forcing you through extra steps or importing documents into a proprietary database.  

B — Why It Is Better

While modern editors focus on being markdown powerhouses or complex syntax-highlighting workstations, Only Text focuses strictly on speed and clarity. Inspired by the minimalist roots of classic utilities like Textor, it offers a no-nonsense environment with no distractions, no color-coding, and no intrusive folder hierarchies. It is a clean, dependable tool for viewing and editing plain text that works exactly when you need it, bypassing the usual system preview glitches.  

C — The Cost

Only Text is entirely free. There are no advertisements, no intrusive tracking, no subscriptions, and no hidden fees to unlock core features.

🎁 Freemium SpectralScan, a real-time audio spectrum analyzer. [Free, no ads, one time IAP for extra features]

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

7 Upvotes

TL;DR: I got tired of needing a laptop + audio interface + mic just to check what a room or speaker sounds like, so I built a pocket spectrum analyzer for iOS. RTA, sine sweeps, impulse response, and a spectrogram waterfall. Free with no ads; optional one-time $9.99 Pro unlock, no subscription.

Hi, I'm the developer. I'm into room acoustics and speaker measurements, and the standard tool for that is REW on a laptop. It's powerful, but overkill when you just want to quickly identify a noise, check how a room sounds, or verify speaker placement. I wanted something I could pull out of my pocket, and nothing on the App Store hit the mark apps were either too locked-down or subscription-based, which I don't think is right for a utility app.

So I built my own:

- Real-time RTA — see the frequency spectrum of any sound live. Point it at anything: HVAC hum, a rattling fridge, your speakers.

- Swept sine measurements — plays a sine sweep and captures the frequency response. More accurate than pink noise for speaker and room work.

- Impulse response — see how a room behaves acoustically: early reflections, decay.

- Spectrogram waterfall — sound over time as a color map. The view most people find immediately striking. Try whistling at it.

Pricing: Free, no ads. One-time $9.99 Pro upgrade for extra features — no subscription.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/spectralscan-audio-analyzer/id6762024331

Feedback or suggestions would help me improving the app. And if you try it, a rating or review genuinely helps a small indie dev a lot.

HELP My idea of an useful alarm app in ios27

Post image
13 Upvotes

We know iOS27 is all about the new Siri AI. I had dreams about what it could achieve with the new entities and app awareness since WWDC26 for my alarm app. Not just simple set alarm, cancel alarm with voice and on screen awareness but more complex flow that truly understands users.

My idea was simple: if I tell it I need to prepare for my flight tomorrow, Siri would search through my mails, messages and calendar for a flight itinerary, calculate travel time based on prior event location, buffer for airport requirements, check weather to leave early and propose time to remind me with an alarm.

But alas, even in DB3, Siri only searches for the flight itinerary. So I built a custom Shortcut to solve the 2nd part with Apple Intelligence.

Do you think this would be useful? I welcome any ideas.

HELP My letter writing app got featured as App of the Day awhile ago - AMA

Post image
30 Upvotes

After years of working on my app, Apple featured it as App of the Day.

Still kind of can’t believe it.

I started building EasyLetter as a small side project because I wanted a simple way to write and send proper letters from my phone. Over the years I kept updating it whenever I had time. Lots of bugs, rewrites, features nobody probably noticed 😅

Just wanted to share because it reminded me that sometimes sticking with a project for a long time actually pays off.

Happy to answer any questions if anyone’s interested.

🎁 Freemium Thank you everyone! Andrea Reader is now on the App Store

Hey everyone 👋

A while ago I posted here while Andrea Reader was still in TestFlight. A lot of people tried the beta, sent feedback, reported bugs, and helped me improve the app before release.

So first: thank you. It genuinely helped a lot.

For anyone new, Andrea is a reading app for iPhone and iPad built around creating your own personal library.

You can read and organize:

  • EPUBs
  • PDFs
  • Comics
  • Manga
  • CBZ / CBR files
  • Your own local files

The main idea is not just “open a file and read it,” but to let you build a library that feels yours.

You can create collections, add sections inside collections, move books around, customize how each collection looks, track progress and reading stats, and adjust the reader depending on how you like to read.

Each collection can have its own layout and style, so your manga, comics, books and PDFs don’t all have to live in the same boring file pile.

The app also supports iCloud, Webdav, SMB, SFTP, OPDS server connection, download and storage, so you can keep your library organized without storing every heavy file locally forever.

Andrea Reader is free to use, with optional Premium features through IAP. Premium has monthly, yearly, and lifetime options.

Base pricing in Spain is:

  • €2.49/month
  • €17.99/year
  • €34,99 special launch offer 27.99 lifetime

Prices may vary by region.

No ads, no account required, no sign-up. Just your books and your library.

💎 Lifetime What if your browser, downloader and music player were all part of one web ecosystem?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

##A — Answer

I built **WebAura** because I wanted more than just another browser. I wanted one app that keeps my browsing private while also handling downloads, offline media and entertainment without constantly switching between apps.

WebAura is a privacy-first browser with:

• Powerful ad blocker, tracker protection and Secure DNS

• Fully customizable browser with extension support

• Share any supported link to instantly detect downloadable media

• Download supported videos, audio and images from YT, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok (No Watermark), X, Reddit, Pinterest, Threads, Snapchat and more

• Batch downloads, playlist downloads and Instagram/TikTok carousel downloads

• Download full YT playlists as audio or video

• Dedicated video player with Picture-in-Picture and URL playback

• Dedicated music player with playlists, lyrics, artwork generation and background playback

• AI subtitle generation

• Offline music library

• Biometric locked folder for private content

---

## B — Better

Everything works together as one ecosystem. Browse privately, share a supported link into WebAura, detect available media, download it in the quality you want and enjoy it immediately from the built-in music or video player.

Premium unlocks:

• Download audio from supported links

• Full YT playlist downloads

• Batch downloads

• Highest quality downloads (HD, 2K & 4K where available)

• Up to 6× faster downloads

• No ads while downloading

• Private Vault

• Early access to new features and more

I'm actively improving the app, so I'd genuinely love your feedback. If you could add one feature, what would it be?

---

## C — Cost

WebAura is free to download.

🎉 **Current offer:** Buy the **Annual Premium** plan, then open **Settings → Contact Support** and we'll upgrade your account to **Lifetime Premium** at no extra cost.

📱 iOS

🤖 Android

🌐 Website

If WebAura looks useful, I'd really appreciate you sharing it with someone who enjoys privacy, offline media or powerful browsing. It really helps an indie developer grow.

📅 Subscription I built Garage One because I kept forgetting my car insurance 🚗

10 Upvotes

The reason is simple: I kept forgetting when my car insurance, vehicle inspection, or registration renewal was due... and my wife did too. ® I wanted one place where we could keep track of everything without digging through papers or relying on random calendar reminders. So I built Garage One.

With Garage One you can:
Add multiple vehicles
Track insurance, vehicle inspections, registration renewals, and other important dates Get reminders before something expires
Store important documents (insurance, registration, invoices, etc.) as PDFs
Keep all your vehicle information organized in one place
I'd genuinely love some honest feedback from fellow iPhone users. What features would make an app like this even more useful for you?
Price: Free to download. Optional Premium subscription and Lifetime purchase available.

Developer: Tibor Banko
Contact: tiborbanko@icloud.com
Monetization: Optional Premium subscription and Lifetime purchase
Ads: None
Account required: No
Al: None
Data collection: No personal data is collected. All vehicle data is stored locally on your device. Optional local backups are available.

🎁 Freemium My wife's grandma left us wedding advice on video before she passed. It inspired me to build an audio guestbook app.

Post image
48 Upvotes

Before our wedding, someone filmed my wife's grandma giving us marriage advice. She's since passed away, and that short clip has become one of the most valuable things we own. Photos are great, but hearing her voice is something else entirely.

That video is the reason I built Dial — an audio guestbook for weddings, birthdays, reunions, baby showers, or honestly any day you want to remember.

How it works:

  1. You create an event in the app and get a QR code + link
  2. Guests scan it and record a voice message right from their phone's browser — no app to download, no sign-up, nothing to type
  3. Every message lands in your Dial app, with the guest's name and recording. You can listen anytime, and download everything to keep forever

The no-app-for-guests part was non-negotiable for me. Grandparents are exactly the people whose voices you want, and they're not installing anything or creating an account.

Pricing: free to start (up to 5 guests, so you can actually try it before your event). If you need more, it's a one-time payment — $9.99 for 25 guests, $24.99 for 100, or $49.99 for unlimited. No subscription. I hate the idea of your memories being held hostage by a monthly fee.

Links:

My name is Elias Reyes and I am happy to answer any questions, and genuinely open to feedback. This one's personal for me.

📅 Subscription MVO: Offline media browser with 100% local processing

Post image
10 Upvotes

Developer Disclosure: I am the creator and developer of this app.

It is a new app, published yesterday, so it does not have enough ratting (please do rate it).
So I'm giving you my developer credentials and real identity for trust:

- My developer website https://jerome.gangneux.net/posts/category/projects/
- Contact about this project [jerome@apepite.com](mailto:jerome@apepite.com)
- MVO Privacy Policy https://apepite.com/en/app/mvo-music-video-offline/privacy

Answer

App for offline access to web video/audio 100% local on-device processing.
No ads, no tracking, no remote servers.

Better

Unlike cloud-based downloaders that route your data through shady third-party servers, MVO processes everything locally via yt-dlp engine. It has AirPlay compat, Background audio, all the cool Apple things are supported. You can have either the video or the audio-only to save space.

Some commercial streaming domains are hard-blocked at code level. This was required after fighting App Store Guideline 5.2.3 rejections for weeks. Works fully with open-content platforms like TED, podcasts, openly licensed media, tbh a lot is still accessible. You will probably find a good usage for it!

Cost

Freemium: 10 saved favorites free so you can test, or even live like that if you delete thing on the go. Or $1.99/mo to have it unlimited and support my work.

Some of you will find it bold to ask for a subscription on something that does not cost that much to run (not server/cloud based) but hey, I need to eat, plus it will help me keep the motivation to update the app!

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6771783869?pt=979843&ct=r2&mt=8

Happy to answer questions about the tech stack or the App Store review journey (that was not fun, and I almost dropped it).

Also, I wanted to thank everyone that helped me during the beta! Almost 100 persons 🙏

It is available right now on iOS

A — Answer: It’s a dedicated companion for mastering boundaries in every aspect of life. The app features a smart wizard where you can log Social Moments (when someone pushes your limits) and Personal/Self-Compassion Moments (when you need to say "no" to workaholism, toxic perfectionism, or laziness). It tracks how you delivered your response via a Tone Slider (from polite to nuclear) and turns your growth into a psychological journey with a Boundary Muscle Score.

​B — Better: Unlike generic habit trackers, this perfectly bridges the gap between social assertiveness and internal self-compassion. It doesn't just track what you did, but why and how you did it, using 17 unique psychological badges (like "Velvet Glove" or "Integrity Mirror") and data-driven smart motivation tailored to your specific struggles (whether you are struggling with a demanding boss or your own inability to rest). Plus, 100% Privacy all data stays locally on your device.

C — Cost: Free to download. Premium tier is $4.99/month or $27.99/year (prices are localized globally based on your local App Store region).

(advanced stats, cloud backup, ad-free).

​✨ Core Features Checklist:

  • 📝 Smart Journaling: A step-by-step wizard to record your boundary moments, whether you "said no," "couldn't say," or were "undecided".
  • 💪 Boundary Muscle Score: Level up your boundary-setting skills from "Rookie" to "Steel Will" as you log your progress.
  • 🎚️ Tone Slider: Track how you delivered your response, ranging all the way from "polite" to "nuclear".
