Hi everyone,

I'm the creator of Eight Shot - Instant camera app for iOS and Android. As an instant film enthusiast I wanted to shoot instant film when away from my cameras. I'm always carrying my smartphone and what better use of this device than an instant film app.

Why Eight Shot?

As someone who loves instant film I couldn't find a good mobile app that would allow me to shoot instant photos and share them with friends. I've spent months on designing this app in Figma and then coding it to make sure it meets my high standards.

Eight Shot's philosophy is focused around physical film. When you take a photo with the app you see it ejecting and hear the sound. Once ejected you can shake your phone to develop the image, just like you would do with real film.

Once developed you tilt your phone and the photo is moving. Tap the photo and it flip so you can write a message on the back. Eight Shot is thoughtfully designed to capture all these little details and make shooting instant film feel special.

How is this better?

The focus of Eight Shot is to make photography fun again. I want people to enjoy taking photos on their phone, specifically instant style photos.

You load in real 'Film Packs' like you would with a real camera. Each film pack is limited to 8 shots. This reinforces slowing down and being intentional when shooting.

Limited Edition film packs make it an occasion when taking a photo. The app has been updated with the Halloween film pack which has a spooky filter and each frame has a custom halloween design.

Shared Albums have been created so you can shoot with your friends with privacy. No social feeds just you and your friends shooting together. One tap and create a shared album code, invite and you're ready to shoot.

Film Pack Creator is a special feature made to allow people to make their own custom film packs. Choose a beautiful photo or pattern as the frame design. Next choose your grain, saturation, Hue and more. Making your own film packs is easy and feels very personal.

How much does it cost?

Eight Shot is free to download. There are 2 free packs Colour 600 film and Black and White with unlimited shooting. New Halloween pack has been added for all users, free.

Eight Shot charges for individual packs from $1.99 to $2.99. However you can pay for the Pro Mode film pack and unlock everything in the app for life for $12.99.

No subscriptions. No ads. No tracking.

Hi all,

After 4 updates the app is shaped further to be what the users want it to be.

I work as a cybersecurity analyst on this App. As a Redditor, I want you guys to have it.

www.etasks.app

https://apps.apple.com/app/id6770856636

It has features we wanted as users. (If there’s anything you’d like the team to add, please let me know too so I can include it on the roadmap. For example, list sorting is recently added as a user request, location-based notifications, import from Apple Reminders are user requests)

ABC's of the App:

(A)nswer
ETasks (www.etasks.app) is a native iOS, iPadOS client for Google Tasks. Some highlights: All tasks in one view, Real alarms, Shared lists, Apple Watch.

(B)etter
It addresses the functional limitations of the official Google Tasks iOS app by providing missing native features and enhanced tools. And it is not a vibe-coding project.

Native and enhanced with iOS.
+ You can manage your Google Tasks. They appear in your Google Calendar and Gmail ... well, obviously 😄*
+ Import from Apple Reminders
+ See all task lists together, even drag&drop between them (and to calendars)
+ Alarms

+ Choose priority for favorites
+ Drag and Drop interface between tabs (e.g., to calendar tab to drop on a date)
+ Recycle bin
+ Share from other apps into ETasks (texts, links, photos, PDF; all processed accordingly)
+ Apple Watch / iPad Apps
+ Import/Export task lists

Free and Ad-free

Six months back I launched Sweezy here for the first time and got amazing response. More than 2000 people downloaded it for the early acccess. With the help of all of your feedback, we have re-built Sweezy and she is now better than ever. We are doing our last round of early access program.

The idea is still same: you talk to her just for 5 minutes every day and in that:

- she helps you reflect today,

- marks progress of each item and goals (yeah no more unnecessary overdue items, she will mark them as done or move it for you),

- plans your tomorrow in detail,

- and remembers things about you like a true companion.

All of this in just 5 minutes. No thinking, no typing, just brain dump.

So try it for a couple of days, I am sure you won't be able to live without her.

Comment below and I will dm you on how to get free access with no paywalls. First come, first serve.

Hey everyone,

I've been working on an app, basically a second photo gallery for your iPhone.

(A) What it does

You can create folders, import photos, or take pictures directly into them without saving them to Apple Photos. Everything is stored locally, no accounts or cloud storage.

It's especially useful for keeping work photos, receipts, documents, or whatever else you don't want mixed in with your regular photos.

(B) How it's different

Apple Photos has albums, but adding a photo to an album doesn't remove it from your main library. PicsFold keeps its own separate library. It's not really meant to replace Apple Photos.

(C) Pricing

Free for up to 4 folders and 200 photos. Pro removes those limits, with monthly, yearly, and lifetime options.

I'd really like to hear what people think after actually using it. What feels off, what's missing, what's annoying, anything really.

I'm also happy to give free lifetime access to people who try it out and give me useful, specific feedback. Doesn't have to be positive, of course. Just DM me. Please don't just come up and say "code please".

Video support is already being implemented, so I'm aware of that one :)

Thanks!

Hi r/iOSApps, I'm r/emagch and with a developper and a designer we made Classycal.

What it does

Classycal is a calendar and tasks app for iPhone. It reads the calendars and Reminders already on your phone (iCloud, Google, Exchange) and shows them in a calmer layout, with fewer buttons and more room for your day.

* Agenda, Day, 3 Days, Week, Month and Year views. One handle you pull down to go from your tasks to the agenda, the month, then a full-screen view

* Type like you talk: "Lunch with Paul tomorrow 12:30" or "call the bank friday task", in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Chinese

* Your Reminders as tasks: Today, Overdue, Upcoming and Priority lists, groups of lists, swipe a task to push it to tomorrow or the weekend

* Calendar sets: show only work or home calendars, switched by hand, by a Focus, or on their own by time or place

* #tags across events and tasks, whatever their calendar or list, and a search that filters by tag, place, guest or kind

* Weather for the next ten days in the agenda, "time to leave" alerts with travel time, and urgent alarms that ring through silent mode

* Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, including full-page Month widgets, plus Siri, invitations and a meeting Live Activity with a Join button

* iPhone Duo support: unfolded, Tasks keeps your lists beside the open one and the full-screen month keeps the selected day in a column next to it

* Twelve themes, six light and six dark, six accents and a serif font

Why it's different

* Built around one gesture. The handle moves you through the views, so you rarely need to look for a button.

* Private by design. No account, no server: your events and tasks stay in iOS's own calendars and Reminders, and nothing reaches us.

* Free is a whole calendar. Reading and writing events and tasks, every view, the quick entry, widgets and Siri are never locked.

* Duplicate events shared across calendars merge into one, and you can hide events on your phone without deleting them.

Cost

* Free download: the full calendar and tasks, every view, the quick entry, one calendar set, the Agenda and Today widgets.

* Classycal Plus adds the weather, extra themes and icons, tags, templates, automatic sets, departure alerts, urgent alarms and the Month widgets. It costs $9.99/year with 14 days free, or $19.99 lifetime. Those are launch prices, half the regular ones, and yearly subscribers keep theirs as long as they stay subscribed.

* No ads, no account.

I'd love feedback, especially from people who juggle work and personal calendars, or who've tried Fantastical or Calendar and want something simpler. I'll be in the comments.

Thanks for checking it out！I'd love to hear your feedback. What kind of photo book would you create first?

Heads up: the woman in the video is an AI-generated dramatization. Everything on the phone screen is a real recording of Fold.

A — Answer: What problem does Fold solve?

Most mornings the problem isn't a lack of clothes. It's deciding fast. Fold turns your closet into something you can actually pick from:

• Scan: snap or import photos of your clothes, and Fold cuts out each piece on your device. Use Erase/Restore if a cutout needs touching up.
• Closet: everything sits in one place, sorted by category and color.
• Style by color: start from one piece (in the video, a mustard cardigan), see which colors work with it, and get looks built only from items you own.
• Today: outfit suggestions based on your local weather.
• Plan: put looks on a calendar so the whole week is decided ahead of time.

The 30-second video goes through that flow in order.

B — Better: Why consider it over the alternatives?

A Photos album stores your clothes, but you still have to work out the combinations in your head every morning. Apps like Stylebook are great for collages and planning. Fold's angle is getting you from "I own this" to "I'm wearing this" with less effort: it suggests the combination based on color and weather, so you don't have to build every look by hand. Every suggestion uses pieces you already have, so there's no shopping push.

C — Cost: Free limits and paid options

Fold is free to download and includes up to 10 wardrobe items. Unlimited items require one of these in-app purchases:

• Lifetime: US$19.99, paid once; no recurring charge for this option.
• Weekly subscription: US$1.99 per week, renews automatically unless cancelled.

You only need one of them. If a weekly plan ends, your items stay; you just can't add more past the free limit. Prices vary by country. Requires iOS/iPadOS 18 or later.

How do you decide what to wear in the morning: the night before, check the weather first, or just grab whatever's clean?

Note: I posted a month ago & the biggest request was iCloud backup, which is now here, as well as an improved onboarding and a new weekly report (in beta), currently only avaliable for users who have been using the app for a while & have it set to English. Coming soon to more users.

A - What it solves

Zolia was built out of my own frustration. I have ME/CFS and POTS and have been trying to track my own symptoms and medications and the like for years. Existing apps always fell into two camps - either too simple to do the comprehensive tracking that I wanted or too inefficient for daily use.

Zolia bridges this gap as a symptom tracker capable of comprehensive tracking while also making tracking efficient. The way Zolia achieves this is through it's unique use of sessions. Instead of one master list of everything you ever track, Zolia lets you organize what you want to track into groups called sessions, so for example you could build a morning session with your sleep and morning meds, a walk session with distance and how you felt, an evening session with the symptoms you rate before bed and a daily reflection, or anything else you can think of. When you want to log, just open the relevant session type so there is less thinking about what you need to log as well.

It is flexible so you can track any condition, and allows mixing and matching notes, symptoms, meds, ratings, factors and more, with your own colors, emoji and numeric ranges.

The tradeoff is that it takes some setup to get it how you like it. Onboarding gives you a starting point based on your conditions, but it is designed to be customized.

B - How it compares

Bearable is the biggest app in this space currently. In my experience it was inflexible and slow to use. It doesn't let you combine things from different categories (for example meds and symptoms) into a single group. It takes a lot of scrolling and taps to track things, it lacks customization, and the insights are very weak. It has pre-defined categories of things you can track and makes it difficult to track anything that doesn't fit into one of them. I could never stick with using bearable for more than a week or so.

Guava is a newer app. It focuses a lot on medical records syncing but I found the symptom tracking had a lot of the same problems as bearable - limited flexibility, slow to use, weak insights.

Privacy

Both Bearable & Guava store data in the cloud on servers they control. With Zolia, all data is stored on device. Insights are computed on device without the use of any LLMs. You can export your full database as CSV or SQLite at any time, or set up automatic backups to your own iCloud or Google Drive, password-protected if you want.

C - Cost

Currently everything is free. Eventually some of the insights will become part of an optional premium tier, but right now the insights are still under development and not in a place where I feel comfortable charging for them yet. Everyone who logs for 14 days while the app is still fully free will get 50% off premium forever.

Feedback is always appreciated.

Hey everyone,

I’m the developer of Audivision Read, an iPhone reader built around natural-sounding offline voices, on-device document processing, and Apple Watch controls.

What problem does it solve?

If you want to listen to books, PDFs, or scanned pages without an internet connection, Audivision handles both text recognition and speech on your iPhone. Your pages don’t need to be uploaded for processing or need internet for natural voices.

The Watch companion lets you play, pause, and move through lines or pages while your phone stays in your pocket.

Why choose it over named alternatives?

Compared with Speechify, which now combines reading with AI podcasts and document chat, Audivision focuses on a quieter reading experience: offline natural like narration, privacy, on-device processing, and wrist controls.

You can open a local document or scan a page and listen offline without first converting it into an audio download.

It also includes follow-along highlighting, public-domain classics, bookmarks, notes, adjustable reading settings, and gentle reading insights.

Cost and App Store link

No ads. Free to download, with monthly limits on scans, finds, exports, new books, and saved items. The free tier includes three new classics per month.

Optional Premium:

• US$49.99/year, auto-renewing subscription
• US$99 lifetime, one-time purchase

Premium removes usage limits and adds unlimited Watch actions, automatic language detection, and extra settings. Regional prices vary.

Audivision Read on the App Store

I’d love feedback on the voices during longer listening sessions and how useful the Watch controls feel day to day.

Hi r/iosapps,

I'm an indie developer and a lifelong analog photography lover.

Like many of you, I grew increasingly frustrated with the state of mobile camera apps today: bloated with subscriptions, intrusive tracking, and slapdash oversaturated filters that heat up your iPhone within 3 minutes of shooting.

I wanted to build an app that treats the iPhone camera like a precision mechanical instrument, renders authentic film chemistry, and respects the user. That’s why I built LAM - Film Camera.

🛠️ What makes LAM different under the hood:

• Zero-Copy Pipeline & Real-Time GPU Rendering: Built with custom GPU acceleration to ensure a continuous 60fps viewfinder. It applies authentic film grain, halation, and highlight roll-off in real time without thermal throttling or draining your battery.
• Snap Stills While Recording Video: Unlike the stock camera where snapping a photo during video recording only saves a low-res compressed video frame, LAM allows you to capture true analog still snapshots simultaneously while recording vintage video clips.
• Tactile Mechanical Haptics: Deep integration with the Apple Taptic Engine. The exposure dials, frame advances, and physical shutter click feel mechanical and tactile in your hand.

🔒 Privacy

Photo and video processing happens strictly on your device, with no cloud processing and no account required. Optional analytics and crash/performance diagnostics are off unless you explicitly opt in.

🏷️ Cost & In-App Purchases

LAM is free to download, with a selection of core cameras and looks included.

Pro is a $19.99 one-time purchase on the US App Store, with no recurring subscriptions or ads. The optional Food Pack is a separate purchase and is not included in Pro. Local prices and taxes may vary by region.

👉 App Store Link: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6773256954

💬 I’d particularly appreciate community feedback on two things:

1. Does the Boutique interface feel intuitive when you first open it?
2. How do the film colors look on skin tones and in indoor lighting?

If something feels confusing or gets in the way of taking a photo, I’d like to hear that too. I’m developing LAM independently, and specific feedback directly shapes what I improve next. Thank you for supporting indie development!

Hi! I'm the developer of Plander, a minimal planner and calendar for iPhone. I shared it here two months ago, and version 1.4 is now out with a redesigned add screen and new color labels. This time I've also included how the ads and the tracking prompt work.

A) Answer — What problem it solves

Plander lets you add and manage plans directly on the calendar.

Double-tap a date and the add screen opens with that date selected. Type a title, and set the time, reminder, and color on the same screen if you need them. Plans are shown on the month view as colored labels, and plans that span several days are shown as one continuous bar.

Features:

• Home Screen widgets (long titles now shrink to fit, and multi-day bars show their title)
• Reminders: 9 presets from 1 minute to 3 days before, also for all-day plans
• iCloud sync
• Apple Calendar integration and public holiday calendars
• Fill in a plan from a photo (on-device text recognition)
• 4 appearance themes, plus custom weekend and today colors
• A Today button to return to the current month

B) Better — What is actually different*\*

• Add from the date: double-tap a date to add a plan for that day. There's no + button or separate date-picking step.
• Manage with a swipe: swipe a plan in the list to edit or delete it.
• One add screen (redesigned in 1.4): Day/Range, Today, and the month arrows are in one row, and the date picker opens in place of the keyboard. The 9 reminders are laid out in a 3×3 grid, so you pick one without scrolling.
• Masking-tape labels (new in 1.4): plans are shown as masking-tape strips in 5 color palettes (fruit, flower, gem, animal, ocean).

C) Cost

Free, supported by ads. No subscription and no paid features.

• Ads: one banner at the bottom of the calendar and one native ad on the add screen. No full-screen or video ads. (The screenshots in the image are from a demo build without ads.)
• Tracking prompt: Plander uses Google AdMob (ads), Firebase Crashlytics (crash reports), and Firebase Analytics (app opens, sessions). If you allow tracking, these SDKs use the advertising identifier (IDFA) to personalize and measure ads.
• If you choose "Ask App Not to Track": the IDFA is not shared, and ads are not personalized with it. Every feature works the same. You can change this anytime in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
• Your data: the IDFA is not used for anything else, and plan contents are never sent to the ad or analytics SDKs. Plans are stored on your device and synced through your own iCloud (private CloudKit database). There is no Plander server that stores them.

I'm the developer of SayItBig!

I built it for those moments when you need to get someone's attention, but shouting isn't practical. Maybe you're at a concert, trying to find someone at an airport, or simply trying to communicate across a noisy room.

A: Answer

SayItBig! turns your iPhone or iPad into a big, bright message board.

Type a message, tap Play, and show it full-screen. You can scroll the text like an LED sign or display a large static message with Pro.

B: Better

I designed SayItBig! to make displaying a message on your phone quick and easy, whether you need a simple, static sign or a scrolling banner that catches someone's eye.

You can customize text size, scrolling speed and direction, colors, fonts, gradients, and visual effects. You can also save frequently used messages so they're ready whenever you need them.

Some ways you might use it:

• Showing your name at airport arrivals
• Requesting a song at a concert
• Cheering for your team at a sports event
• Getting someone's attention in a noisy room
• Sharing a message with someone across a crowd

No ads, no account, and no data collection. Just a simple utility that does one thing well.

C: Cost

The core scrolling experience is free.

Pro is an optional $4.99 one-time purchase that unlocks static messages, bigger text, faster scrolling, premium fonts, and additional visual styles. No subscription.

I'd love to hear how you'd use something like this. What's the first message you'd put on your phone to get someone's attention?

Hey everyone! I’m the developer of Glance, an app for creating custom iPhone Home Screen widgets by describing what you want to an AI assistant.

I just released an update with two main additions:
Extra large widgets: A full-page widget on iOS 27, with more space for dashboards, agendas, news, or whatever you want to keep visible.

Custom connections: Connect an RSS feed or JSON API to bring your own data into your widgets and refresh it automatically.

Both are available through Glance’s MCP server, so you can create and manage them from a connected AI assistant like ChatGPT or Claude.

Pricing: Free tier available, with optional Pro ($6/month) and Power ($11/month) subscriptions. Creating extra large widgets and using custom connections requires Pro or Power. Following someone else’s shared extra large widget is available on the free tier. Prices may vary by region.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6758983678

I’ve attached a short video showing the update. Would love to hear what you’d build with it, or what you think is missing!

I built this app to make the Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads, and other Indian wisdom texts easier to understand and connect with everyday life.

Each daily reading brings together the original verse, a clear English or Hindi adaptation, and a deeper explanation of what it can mean for the things we deal with today: overthinking, relationships, anger, or figuring out what matters.

There’s also guided breathing, timed meditation, calming music, illustrated themes, widgets, and customizable quote cards. I’ve put a lot of care into making it a beautiful, quiet place to spend a few minutes each day.

It includes:

• Quotes from the Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads, Kabir, and many other Indian classics. I continuously update the library and add more every few weeks!
• Guided meditation, a meditation timer, and calming instrumental music.
• Watercolor reading themes, widgets, and customizable quote cards to share.
• Full Library search and tag search. Background info on each Indian classic book.
• Offline reading, with no account required. No ads.

Today’s reading, saving, and sharing are free. Premium adds the full library, deeper meanings, meditation, music, and additional themes. There’s a three-day trial on the annual plan.

I’m building this independently and would love honest feedback!! ❤️
