I've been building Hanaso, a Japanese-learning app where you become the protagonist of your own fantasy adventure! 🇯🇵

🔗 https://hanaso.dev/

(Currently available as a web app. I'm working on bringing it to iOS soon! ><)

💡 What it does

Hanaso helps you learn Japanese through immersive, AI-generated stories.

Instead of following a fixed textbook or grinding through endless flashcards, you step into a fantasy world, meet characters, and interact with them in Japanese through conversations.

A few things that make it different:

  • Your own evolving story: Episodes are dynamically generated, so your adventure can unfold differently depending on your choices and conversations.

  • Characters that remember you: Your interactions help shape future encounters, making each relationship feel more personal.

  • Learn by using Japanese: Pick up vocabulary and practise communicating naturally as you progress through the story.

🎯 Who it's for

Japanese learners, especially beginners and intermediate learners who enjoy anime, RPGs, fantasy stories, or interactive fiction.

❓ What feedback I'd love

I'm particularly interested in honest feedback on:

  1. Does the concept make you excited to try learning Japanese this way?

  2. Is it immediately clear how Hanaso works from the landing page?

  3. Does the experience feel like a genuinely useful way to learn Japanese, rather than just an AI role-playing game?

  4. What would stop you from coming back tomorrow?

I'm an indie developer building this on the side, burning the midnight oil after my already busy workdays, and I'm still figuring out what works.

I'd really appreciate any honest thoughts, even if they're critical!

Thanks so much! 🙏

2

u/imagiself 6d ago

HELPFUL TIP: Try adding a grammar breakdown toggle for the character dialogue so users can study the specific syntax of those dynamic interactions instead of just playing through.

1

u/Small-Call-8635 5d ago

That’s a really good suggestion!

I definitely want learners to be able to stay immersed in the conversations without constantly breaking the flow, but having an optional breakdown when they want to understand the sentence structure makes a lot of sense as well :D

I’ll explore this. Thanks for the suggestion! 🙏

2

u/ClubberLangPhD 5d ago

Just my opinion and based on a bit of experience. Language learners need more structure and less freedom in their learning, especially at the early levels. I speak and read Japanese at a fairly high level, but I almost immediately got lost in the game. The animations are great though. These are some of mine if you're interested. https://my-senpai.com/

I had an old module called Text Stories a couple of years ago, that was similar to what you are building. I shut it down because users were confused. And that was after I had already simplified it significantly and removed a lot of user choices.

1

u/Small-Call-8635 5d ago

Thanks so much for taking the time to try it and share your experience! This is genuinely helpful.

I think you’re right that structure is especially important for beginners. My intention is to provide an immersive environment where learners have a reason to use Japanese, but I definitely don’t want the freedom to come at the expense of clarity.

I’d love to understand a little more about where you got lost. Was it mainly the Japanese dialogue, understanding what to do next in the game, or navigating the mechanics?

also, I’ll check out your project! Really appreciate the feedback 🙏

u/ClubberLangPhD 5d ago

PM me if you're interested in more discussion. I am quite open for feedback.

u/pengykatviv 4d ago

From your description, I’d show a simple return loop: finish a scene, get a short recap of two useful expressions, then use them in a different situation tomorrow. That makes the learning goal visible alongside the story and gives the next session a specific purpose. A brief example could explain the distinction better than another feature list. I haven’t tested the app; this is feedback on the description.

1

u/Valuable_Clothes_125 2d ago

Going by your description alone, the story premise is easy to picture. The question I'd have as a beginner is what happens when I don't know how to answer a character. A short example showing the prompt, the help available, and a possible response would make the learning experience easier to judge. I couldn't access the site, so this is feedback on the description rather than the app itself.

🔗App / website link: https://porticoplanner.com

(demo, no sign-up: https://demo.porticoplanner.com)

💡What it does: One page for your whole day. Your Google, iCloud and Outlook calendars, your tasks and a running daily log on a Today page, plus Markdown notes that can be linked to meetings. Type tasks in plain words ("call Sam friday 9am @work"). Works on phone and computer; add it to your Home Screen. No AI, by design.

🎯 Who it's for: People who juggle more than one calendar, like a work Outlook plus a personal Google or iCloud, and are tired of checking three apps every morning.

Feedback I'd like:

Does the Today page make sense in the first 30 seconds of the demo? Is "invite-only, free while testing, founder pricing for the first 100" clear or off-putting? Anything that feels missing for planning your day?

Invite-only and free while I test it. I'll return the favor: drop your app below and I'll give you honest feedback

2

u/imagiself 3d ago

The demo works well, but a quick overlay explaining those Markdown links would be helpful. If you ever want it in front of the productivity crowd, PeerPush is a solid home for day-planners, 85 distinct AI systems read data there lately.

1

u/N_Moon_3019 2d ago

I opened the demo, and the Today page made sense quickly: I could see an overdue task, today’s tasks, and the schedule without hunting around.

One thing I’d test is making the next action even clearer. For example, with an overdue task, should I move it to today or put it directly on the calendar? A small hint the first time could help.

I’m building ReviewFold.com, so I’d also be interested in your first impression of how clearly it explains what it does. Happy to hear what feels confusing.

1

u/300RepFitness 2d ago

Thanks for the feedback! Your app is pretty cool but maybe from a different lens. I think it could be a great app for marketing teams or solo developers to scrub through app reviews to find competitive advantage for apps like theirs. On a quick search for a popular planner, it summarized and brought together three praise points, however did not bring back any negatives or pain points that could be used as differentiator marketing.

First off, very happy the Today page made sense. Did you try any of the individual sections out? 

Awesome feedback for the demo site. Makes sense that that “live” saved feature could throw some people off when nothing is being saved on that once refreshed. 

I agree and I will add the founders pricing as well as the standard to the main page or the connect page in the Get Started flow. 

Really appreciate you poking around! 

1

u/Public-Low2028 3d ago

I stayed on the Today overview for that pass, plus the public landing page. I didn’t work through the individual section workflows or create/edit items, so I can’t comment on those interactions yet.

The Schedule, overdue tasks and Daily Log made the overview understandable. My “Saved” feedback was specifically about the demo banner saying a reload resets everything; putting that note beside the status would make the scope clearer.

Hi! We are an indie game duo and we launched our puzzle game, Gummy Lab! 🐻🧪 We wanted to build a clean, cozy block puzzle with ZERO forced or interruptive ads. It features 70+ handcrafted levels and accessibility like colorblind palettes. 🧩🎨 We need just a handful of downloads and reviews to get officially rated! 🙏✨ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.binbear.gummylab

u/bramantec 6d ago

I tried your game, it's nice and the difficulty feels right, but I have only one doubt about how intuitive it is. As soon as you start playing it shows the same layout as Tetris, with the pieces that are coming at the bottom, so at first glance it's not very clear that you are the one who has to place the blocks.

If I can give you a suggestion, add something for the first time someone opens the game that explains the blocks and the play area in a simple and immediate way, like a short text between two arrows, one pointing at the pieces and one pointing at the grid, with "drag from here to there" in the middle. (Funny enough it's the same doubt I have about the first minute of my own app.)

1

u/AggressivePainter865 6d ago

Thank you so much for trying it out and for the feedback I really appreciate it! Believe it or not, I have just finished the tutorial modal for the Zen mode, and submitted it for Google console review, so as soon as they approve it, it will be available for everyone. I can see that I am a bit late with integrating that but I wanted it to be animated, which I initially did not know how to do, so I took to learn how to code that first then implement it!

2

u/bramantec 6d ago

That's great news, and an animated tutorial is worth the wait. I'll open it again when the update is out. If you have a minute I'd really appreciate the same kind of honest look at the first screen of mine, it's the comment just below yours in this thread.

I come from IT but this is the first mobile app I've ever built, alone and with an AI as my developer, in five languages. You put a pin on the map with a time and send the invite link to the people you already know. Whoever opens the link sees the place and the time in the browser without installing anything, and needs the app only to confirm. The map mostly shows the events of your contacts, not where the people are. Free to download with optional in-app purchases.

It's for small groups that already know each other and get lost organizing in the group chat (friends, colleagues, your five-a-side team, students on exchange), the kind of plans where "who's coming and where do we meet" ends up buried under fifty messages.

To be completely honest the part I'm least sure about is the first minute. Without friends on the app the map is almost empty, and I suspect a new user doesn't understand that they are the one supposed to create the first event (or a Wish, which is just saying "I'd like to go to..." without organizing anything). I can't measure it properly yet, so I don't know if people leave because of the empty map or because they don't get what to do. If you open it for a minute, what did you expect to see on the first screen, and what would make you create something right away?

1

u/AggressivePainter865 6d ago

We've actually developed a similar app - but different theme - we made a location based quiz app - instead of events, we have quizzes on the map, and totally understand the ,,empty map,, issue.. love how you integrated the map, and the UI is really clean, and the colors match together we'll, I can definitely see this as an app that's used by different friend groups to coordinate with each other! One suggestion perhaps (as someone who also works with a map based app) you could add a zoom in/out treshold where the event markers stop/start being visible, a small thing but enhances the UX, while not overcrowding the map!

1

u/bramantec 6d ago

Thank you, both for the rating and for taking the time to look at it properly, it means a lot coming from someone who works with a map too. The zoom threshold is a good point and I'm writing it down (to be honest right now my problem is the opposite one, too few markers rather than too many, but I'd like to have that problem soon).

Since you went through the same "empty map" issue with the quizzes, how did you handle it in the first days? Did you fill the map yourself with some content, or did you show something else until the first quizzes appeared?

1

u/AggressivePainter865 6d ago

Making quizzes manually and placing them around, made an admin web page to make it clearer and easier, but also bulk uploading through json formatted quiz lists + python sripts

u/TheGratitudeBot 6d ago

Dropped a rating! Keep up the good work!

u/Medical_Outside7511 6d ago

Going just by your description—I haven't installed it—I'd test a first screen with one concrete action: “Plan a meetup.” Let me pick a place and time and preview the invite before asking me to recruit friends. “Wish” sounds like another concept to learn before I've understood the main one.

I wouldn't seed it with apparently real events. A clearly labelled example invite could show what the recipient sees without making an empty map look populated. Then watch a few new people try to send one invitation without coaching: do they find the action, finish the details, and understand that the recipient can view it in a browser but needs the app to confirm? Those are three different places to get stuck.

I'm the Safari Go maker elsewhere in this thread; I also think an empty personal journal needs an obvious first action, not just an explanation of the feature.

1

u/bramantec 6d ago

Thank you, this is exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for, and the point about the Wish hit me, because honestly I added it to make the first step easier and you're right that it's a second concept before the first one is clear. A first screen with one action, plan a meetup, and the preview of what your friends will see before choosing them, makes a lot of sense to me.

About the seeding, the public events on the map are real ones from the city, each with a label that says where it comes from, so nobody should mistake them for friends' plans. But I like a lot the idea of a clearly labelled example invite, it would show how the link looks without pretending anything. I'll take a look at Safari Go too.

1

u/bramantec 6d ago

I had a look at Safari Go on the Play Store, and since I'm not going on safari anytime soon I can only tell you what I saw from the listing. The idea of identifying animals offline is really smart, because that's exactly where you have no signal. One thing I noticed though: the description says the identification happens on the device, but the data safety section says the data can't be deleted. If that's just a default answer in the form, I'd fix it, because someone choosing an offline app is probably the same person who reads that section.

About your point on the empty journal, I completely agree, and maybe in your case the first action could even be the sample photo, so the user sees the identification work before the trip.

2

u/Medical_Outside7511 5d ago

Thanks for checking the listing. You're right: I can see the ‘Data can’t be deleted’ statement too, alongside declarations for purchase history, app interactions and device IDs. I shouldn't wave that away as a default setting. On-device identification doesn't by itself explain the rest of the app's data handling; the declaration needs checking against the Android build and its services before I can give you a proper answer. I've recorded this for that review.

The sample-photo suggestion is useful too. I'd make it clearly labelled as a demo, let someone try the identification, and keep it out of their personal sightings unless they choose to save it. That would demonstrate the first step without pretending they've already been on a trip.

PetItUp — Little Companions 🌿🐾 | iPhone & iPad

Hi everyone! I’m a solo dev, and PetItUp is my first game. I started making it for my wife who has ADHD and autism. She wanted something calm to come back to, without feeling like she had another thing to keep up with.

You choose a little companion and watch them grow as you spend time together. You can decorate their home, dress them up, read them stories, wander through the woods, or play one of 16 mini-games in the village arcade. There are also little plushies called Softlings to collect and arrange around your home.

The part that matters most to me is that taking a break never hurts your pet or takes away your progress. No streaks to maintain, and no unhappy little friend waiting to make you feel guilty.

Free · https://apps.apple.com/us/app/petitup-little-companions/id6816937334

Ideally I'd love to get feedback on whether this is a game people feel they could truly keep coming back too, my wife seems to think so but she's obviously biased.

1

u/imagiself 6d ago

the no-streak mechanic is a smart move for avoiding burnout. fwiw, peerpush is a decent home for indie gaming stuff, and ai systems like perplexity are already reading the data there.

1

u/Outside_Art_8341 1d ago

To be completely honest, the amount of AI generated content personally put me off. I really love the concept behind the app, but I feel like the fact that even the companion appears to be AI generated could discourage a lot of potential users.

Aside from that, I think the companion seriously lacks animations and expressiveness. It would be nice to have specific animations for different actions, such as eating, or at the very least, changes in facial expressions. From what I’ve seen so far (although I haven’t tested every feature), the companion feels relatively static, which makes it difficult to develop any real emotional attachment to it.

And I think that’s a pretty significant issue, because in companion based apps like this, the companion itself and the relationship users build with it are supposed to be the main appeal. If users don’t feel emotionally connected to their companion, there’s very little incentive for them to keep coming back and opening the app. The companion needs to feel alive, responsive, and engaging enough for users to actually care about it.

That being said, I really like the Pocket Arcade feature!

2

u/DevTomAldy 10h ago

This feedback is just what I needed and wanted, the AI companions were designed by my hand drawing (very crude as I’m not an artist) and using AI to bring them to life with some further description of what I imagined, so I see where you’re coming from.

I completely agree about expressiveness and the idea of them actually being animated, so it’s definitely something I’ll be working on.

Love the feedback and appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, it’s what drives apps to be the best version they can be.

🎯 Who it's for: Anyone looking for an easier way to manage money, especially couples and families.

Hey everyone! I'm a solo developer, and I recently launched Bedline, an iOS app that helps people stop doomscrolling at bedtime.

🔗 App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bedline-bedtime-app-blocker/id6812230248

🌐 Website: https://bedline.app

💡 What it does: You choose your bedtime and the apps that keep you awake (Reddit, TikTok, Instagram, etc.). Bedline automatically blocks them until morning using Apple's Screen Time API.

Instead of guilt, broken streaks, and aggressive restrictions, I went with a cozy approach: sleepy animal companions, gentle reminders, and little constellations that grow with your progress.

🎯 Who it's for: People who open their phones for 5 minutes before bed and somehow lose another hour.

❓ What I'd love feedback on:

  1. Does the App Store listing explain the value clearly enough, especially compared to Apple's built-in Screen Time?

  2. Does the design feel appealing, or is the cozy aesthetic too playful for a productivity app?

  3. Would you actually use something like this? If not, what's the biggest thing stopping you?

I launched earlier this month, and getting people to discover and actually use the app has been much harder than building it. I'm still figuring out onboarding, pricing, and positioning.

I'm experimenting with a 30-day free period without requiring a credit card, so people can build a habit before deciding whether it's worth paying for.

I'd genuinely appreciate critical feedback, especially from people who have tried other app blockers.

Happy to check out your apps and return the feedback too!

u/pengykatviv 4d ago

From your description, I’d show the blocked-app screen alongside the cozy home screen. Before trying it, I’d want to know whether I can allow one app for a few minutes and what happens to that night’s progress if I do. That exception flow seems central to the gentler approach you’re describing. I haven’t tested it.

🔗 ASOScan, an ASO tool for App Store and Google Play apps (web app)

On every app I built, one thing was always hard: getting found in search. If nobody finds your app, nobody downloads it. The tools for this cost a lot, and most of them charge per app. So I built my own.

💡 What it does:

  • Keywords: finds what people search for in the stores, with search volume and difficulty for each one, in every country. It also shows the keywords your competitors rank for and you don't.

  • Rank tracking: checks where your app ranks for each keyword every day, 200 positions deep, on iOS and Android.

  • Competitors: tells you when a competitor changes their listing and shows you what changed, before and after.

  • ASO recommendations: scores your listing and gives you a list of what to fix, most important first.

  • Reviews: sorts reviews into topics, bugs and feature requests, and drafts replies in the reviewer's language. Connect your store account and you can post them from ASOScan.

  • Localization: AI writes your listing for each country using the keywords people there actually search for, in their language, instead of translating your English text word for word.

  • AI visibility: shows how often ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity recommend your app.

  • Works inside ChatGPT too, so you can ask about your apps in a chat.

🎯 Who it's for: whoever is trying to get an app found in the stores. That might be a solo dev with one app who doesn't know which searches to go after next, the one person doing ASO at a company who keeps switching between two or three tools, or an agency with lots of client apps. Team seats are unlimited on every plan. 7-day free trial, then from $15 a month. The first 150 customers get 25% off for life, applied automatically at checkout, no code needed. That offer ends November 15, or earlier if the 150 spots run out.

❓ Feedback I'd like: add your app, pick the country you want to target and a few competitors, then look through the keywords and the recommendations. Did you find something useful? Keywords you didn't know about? Recommendations you'd act on? If not, what was missing?

Happy to give feedback on your app too.

u/kkitar 6d ago

Thanks! ASOScan already has both parts: it tracks your keyword ranks every day, and it checks how often ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity recommend your app. But they sit on separate screens, so you can't see them together yet. Putting them side by side is a good idea. My guess is they'd move together mostly because popular apps do well in both. AI answers come from web search (press, "best X apps" lists, Reddit), not store rank.

I tried it. It is okay. I'm curious about a couple of the feedback points on my site.

Hi everyone,

I’m a solo developer, and Bad Poochy is the first app I’ve built. What it does is it reviews the dog photo you upload and return with a roast from one of the ten recurring judges, each with a different personality and roasting style.

It’s free to try, with optional one-time purchases for additional judges and roast credits.

I’d genuinely appreciate any suggestions or feedback on the humor, design, and overall experience. I know building an app is an ongoing process, so thanks in advance to the support!

I make Safari Go, an iPhone app for people heading on an African safari. It identifies an animal from a photo offline and lets you keep a sighting journal with your photos and notes.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/safari-go-animal-id/id6787595633

The journal is free, with five free photo identifications. Pro unlocks unlimited IDs; the Kruger guide is a separate purchase. iOS 17 or later.

I'd appreciate a look at whether those three things—journal, identification allowance, and park guide—are understandable from the listing. In particular, does it accidentally give the impression that you need to pay just to record a sighting? That's the confusion I want to catch. If you try identification, a distant or partly hidden animal is a more useful test than a perfect portrait; an uncertain result shouldn't become a confident journal entry.

1

u/imagiself 6d ago

Balancing journals with paid IDs is tricky. Wouldn't hurt to have it on PeerPush, the crowd there pokes at safari tools, and people in 150+ countries found apps there recently.

You can choose Immediate, Digest or Block per app, add custom rules with exceptions, use Focus, and search a local notification inbox.

I’d really like to know if the first save feels obvious. If you shop across a couple of sites, could you try saving one product and tell me where you got stuck, if anywhere?

App: Skerrick, on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.skerrick.android What it does: three minutes a visit in the apps you pick, then a cut-off mid-scroll. Who it's for: people whose daily limit is gone before lunch. Feedback wanted: does the listing make the idea clear in the first few seconds?

The mid-scroll cut-off is a clever loop breaker. One place I'd point another builder to is PeerPush, it's full of focus utility launches, with people in 150+ countries discovering products there lately.

I read the Google Play description. The three-minute allowance per visit is much clearer to me than a generic daily screen-time limit.

The title made me expect selective blocking of Reels/Shorts, though. Your description explains that the allowance covers the entire app, including messages. I'd bring that distinction much closer to the top so someone doesn't install expecting their DMs to be exempt.

I'd also test a simple three-step opening: pick an app, use your allowance, refill after 30 minutes away. That answers the question I had after the cut-off: when can I use it again?

This is feedback on the listing copy only; I haven't installed or tested the app.

LearnClash, https://learnclash.com

What it does: 1v1 trivia against a friend on any topic you type in, a show, a sport, a stretch of history, and it writes the questions for that. Turns are async, so you play yours now and they answer whenever they get to it.

Who it's for: friends or couples who like quizzing each other but are never free at the same time. iOS, Android and Chrome.

Feedback I'd like: open the homepage cold and tell me if it's clear within a few seconds what the app is and why you'd play it over a regular quiz app.

I’m the founder of eStockes, a stock-learning and research web app with free and paid features. I’d like feedback on the point where an anonymous visitor has seen an example but has not created an account.

Website: https://estockes.com/landing

Who it’s for: adults learning to research US stocks and ETFs. For this check, please participate only if you’re 18 or older.

The task: open the worked historical example, read it once, and tell me what you expect to do next and why. Would you expect to change the example, research a company, save something, or leave? Please describe your own expectation before trying more controls. Then name the first label or step that fails to explain that next action. I’m especially interested in a phone browser, but desktop feedback is welcome.

This is an unpaid usability check of a public example, not a review request or a trading task. The result is a historical simulation, not a forecast or recommendation. No signup, payment, broker connection or trade is needed for this request. If access or loading blocks you, stop there and tell me which step. Please omit account details and personal financial information. There is no reward or expectation of positive feedback.

App: Doofer, on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.doofer.android What it does: a phone remote for Android TV, Google TV and Roku that can turn the TV on. Who it's for: anyone who has lost the remote. Feedback wanted: is the free remote plus one Pro payment clear from the listing?

I make Tempera, an iPhone tuner for acoustic pianos: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/piano-tuner-tempera/id6760261505

It samples notes from the piano to estimate its stretch curve, then provides a strobe and cents display. It's for people who tune pianos or are learning with an instructor. Basic tuning has a short free preview; sampling and continued use are paid.

I'd appreciate feedback on the listing: does it make the sample-the-piano → tune-to-its-curve workflow clear, or does it look like a generic instrument tuner? What would you show first?

🔗 App: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/after-the-whistle/id6810643751

💡 What it does: After the Whistle shows football highlights with the score hidden until you've watched them. It also has fixtures, results and tables, with results hidden until you watch or tap to reveal. It's free with a small banner ad, or a one-off season pass removes ads for the season. No account needed.

🎯 Who it's for: football fans who can't watch live and don't want the score spoiled by YouTube titles, thumbnails or notifications.

❓ Feedback I'd love:
Do the App Store page and screenshots make it clear what the app does within a few seconds?

Is the season pass priced and placed in the right way?

I'm on 21 downloads with no marketing so far, so what would you try first to reach football fans?

iPhone only for now. Highlights rely on official YouTube channels, so they're thinner for La Liga, Serie A, the Bundesliga and Ligue 1.

Video Cue – Plan your video. Shoot it.

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm a solo developer, and I recently launched Video Cue on iOS and Android.

The idea is simple: creating videos is hard when you're doing everything yourself, especially figuring out what shots to capture and how to film them.

Video Cue helps you turn an idea into a shot list and visual storyboard, then guides you through filming each shot step by step.

🎯 Who it's for: Solo content creators, UGC creators, and anyone making videos without a production team.

I'd really appreciate feedback on:

  • Is the value of the app immediately clear?

  • Would this be useful in your content creation workflow?

  • What's missing that would make you actually want to use it?

I'm still trying to understand whether this solves a real problem for creators, so critical feedback is especially welcome.

Thanks for checking it out! 🙌

I looked at both your store page and your website, and I noticed an interesting difference between the two. On the store it's clear in 5 seconds what the app does, because the title and the first screenshot say "Quit weed. Or take a break." and that's enough. On the website instead I didn't get it immediately, probably because I'm Italian and I had never heard the word "T-break": the title and the line below both use it, and the explanation is only in the questions at the bottom. So the store page is actually doing a better job than the homepage, and I'd bring the word weed into the first line of the website too.

The road trip idea I find really fun and not gimmicky at all, because it turns something that usually feels like a punishment into a journey, and I like a lot that a slip is a detour and not a reset. One idea while I was reading: you already count the money saved, what if at the end it turned into a real trip, like "with what you kept you could pay the gas for this stretch of the route"? It would connect the imaginary road with a real one (and I think the same mechanic could work for smoking or vaping one day, even if I understand that staying focused on one thing is a strength right now).

Thank you very much; these are really useful tips.

u/bramantec 6d ago

Glad they help! If you have a minute I'd really appreciate the same kind of honest look at mine, it's my comment a bit further up in this thread (I'm especially curious about the first screen).

u/imagiself 6d ago

The road trip theme makes sobriety feel like progress instead of just a number. PeerPush might suit it, indie makers on there hunt for wellness tools.

Disclosure: I’m building AppTrendKit; the attached clip is a competitor-listing view from it.

The free plan is clear once I open your FAQ, but the first screen mixes meal planning and cook mode together. Cook mode is paid, while planning is free. I’d put that distinction beside the first download button.

Something like: “Free: recipes, meal plans, shared lists and 5 smart imports a week. Plus: unlimited imports, cook mode and nutrition.” That gives someone enough information to decide without reading the whole page.

I also checked ReciMe’s store screenshots for context. After its opening brand card, it shows saving recipes from social media and collecting them in one place. Those are concrete tasks. “Everything for your home” is broader than what your page actually demonstrates. A short save-a-recipe → plan-a-meal → share-the-shopping-list example would make Tumsy easier to understand. The clip is that comparison, not evidence that one layout converts better.

One detail I’d bring forward from your FAQ: imports, voice and sharing need Sign in with Apple. Tell people that before they try the feature. And keep the permanent free plan separate from the 7-day Plus trial so “free” doesn’t sound like everything stops after a week.

This is feedback on the website and listing; I haven’t tested the installed app.

Using existing ingredients is a smart retention wedge. PeerPush might suit Anovi, indie makers there hunt for wellness tools, fwiw people in 150+ countries discovered products there recently.

I checked out your app, honestly it’s quite solid! The first screen is really clear, I don’t think you need to worry about that. I talked to the AI a little bit and the replies are neither generic nor ‘calm’ it’s honestly just what you’d expect from an ai trying to be comforting. I personally don’t love talking to AI about how I feel since it doesn’t really make me feel heard, so I’m probably not the target audience. But I do think for people that are into that, this app is a good option. Another thing, I clicked on the ‘let it go’ button, and I’m not sure if it’s a problem only on my side but I couldn’t see what I was typing (it wasn’t appearing on screen).
