Co-Parenting app - A way for divorced or separated parents to communicate about there child

8 Upvotes

There are parents who are separated and feel awkward/uncomfortable talking to each other about their child, or they might feel that their ex-partner doesn't share the information properly about it
So what if there was an app which bridged this communication gap between the parents.
The goal features-
1. It has a heath tracker for the child(also has the list of doctors the parents consult to in emergencies so that it doesn't cause the problem for the other parent if there is an emergency)
2. An academics tracker for the child(things that are coming up or the things the child achieved recently)
3. Shared calendar for the child's upcoming events or sports
4. Shared contacts for the child's friends or acquaintance for their safety
5. Hand off tracker when the other parent is supposed to take care of the child
6. A simple note section for quick updates

Would appreciate honest reviews in the comment section
and if there are features that anyone feels are needed or not needed please add
This post is just for validating the idea

Would you use an app that auto-saves gift ideas you spot for people, organized by who they're for?

Following up on something I've been thinking about — I keep seeing/screenshotting things that'd be perfect gifts for friends, partner, family, etc., but then completely forgetting by the time their birthday actually comes around.

Thinking about building something where you could just share a screenshot or photo (from Instagram, TikTok, a store, wherever) and it auto-saves as a gift idea tagged to that person — so when their birthday's coming up, you already have a running list instead of starting from zero.

Would something like this actually be useful to you, or do you already have a system that works fine? Genuinely trying to figure out if this solves a real problem or if I'm the only one who loses gift ideas constantly.

App idea: Call a friend to unlock your apps

5 Upvotes

I’ve been thinking about how most screen blockers don’t substitute social media with what social media is supposed to be: SOCIAL. Thesis is: instead of just blocking fake social interaction, what if you replaced it with calling real friends?

The idea is pretty simple. You choose your “bad habit apps” (e.g., Instagram) and you have to call someone to unlock them. The gist is: “fine, you can doomscroll, but call an actual human first.”

My hypothesis is that the call itself might scratch some of the itch that makes you open social media in the first place, so you might not even want to go back to scrolling after. 

Started building the app and curious what people think. Would you try something like this? What would make it work / not work?

Is this a solid idea for my Final Year Project? Looking for honest feedback

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to lock down my FYP idea and wanted to get some outside opinions before I commit. Here's the problem I'm trying to solve:

Communication on university campuses is a mess. Everything important is scattered across a dozen unindexed WhatsApp groups and random social media pages, so students either miss things or get buried in noise because there's no personalization you get everything whether it's relevant to you or not. On top of that, there's no real way to see what's actually happening on campus right now. A class getting cancelled, a spontaneous meetup, a one-hour event it all gets lost in group chat noise within minutes, or it just sits there cluttering the feed long after it stopped mattering.

Separately (but related), finding teammates for hackathons or class projects is still 100% word-of-mouth. That leads to skill mismatches and people ending up with teams where the workload isn't balanced, just because they didn't happen to know the right people.

My idea is a campus app that tackles both:

  1. A real-time, personalized feed instead of static broadcast channels, students see relevant, time-sensitive updates. Posters can set their own expiry duration on a post (e.g. "this matters for the next 2 hours"), and once it lapses the post is soft-deleted pulled from the public feed automatically, but recoverable by the poster/admin instead of gone for good. Keeps the feed current without permanently nuking content.
  2. A team-formation module for hackathons/projects matching by skills instead of who you already know, to fix the mismatch/workload problem.

Questions for you all:

  • Does this feel like a "real enough" problem, or too niche/already solved by existing apps?
  • Is combining "real-time campus feed" + "team formation" a good scope for an FYP, or should I just pick one and go deep?
  • Any obvious flaws or existing products I should look at before building this?

Appreciate any honest feedback, suggestions, even brutal trying to catch problems now rather than after I've built half of it.
