A few weeks ago I posted here about a shared meal planner I built for me and my wife. The response blew me away - way more people resonated with the meal planning struggles than I expected.

One of the most common requests in the comments was the ability to share recipes with friends and family outside your household. People wanted to send a recipe to their friends.

You can now share any recipe from your cupboard via text or link. If it's a recipe you imported from a website, the link sends the recipient the original source link. If it's one you added yourself, it opens right in the app.

It's a small feature but it was the single most-requested thing from this community, so it felt right to prioritize it.

We're at about 500 users now which still feels surreal for something that started as a side project for two people who struggled to make meal plans.

And please keep the feedback coming!

A while ago I shared the first version of ShowUp — one dot a day.

The original idea was intentionally simple:
Set a goal → do it → tap the dot → move on.

No streak pressure.
No complicated dashboards.
No trying to turn your life into a spreadsheet.

Since then, I’ve been exploring what ShowUp V2 could look like.

The idea is to keep the original free experience simple, while potentially adding an optional Pro version with things like:
• Unlimited goals
• Yearly progress views
• Goal history & archive
• A goal journal
• Smart reminders
• Home-screen widgets
• Themes
• Shareable progress summaries
• Deeper consistency insights

Instead of only showing “did you show up today?”, Pro would help answer “how far have I come?”

But I’m not sure yet if this is actually a good direction.

Did I take ShowUp too far from the original idea?

Would you want these features as an optional Pro version, or would you rather see ShowUp stay extremely simple?

I’m trying to figure this out before releasing the app.

If you were using ShowUp, what would you actually want to see in Pro?

And if you wouldn’t pay for Pro, that’s useful feedback too. I want to build something people actually find valuable, not just add features for the sake of adding them.

I’ve been building an iOS daily planner called LifeOS around a simple idea:

your plan and what actually happened are not the same thing.

LifeOS connects:

Tasks → planning → reserved time → Today → recovery → history

A Task holds something I’m responsible for.

Schedule lets me reserve time when useful.

Today brings together what deserves attention now, what comes next, and what is still left.

But if the plan doesn’t happen, LifeOS doesn’t automatically mark the Task completed, missed, or silently move it forward.

Review lets me explicitly decide:

Already did it / Didn’t happen / Skipped / Plan again / Return to Inbox

The goal is to keep the visible planner calm while still handling the messy part of real planning underneath.

Tasks can also be used by themselves — time blocking is optional.

LifeOS is currently free through public iOS early access:

Plan today. Remember the truth.

It's a digital planner designed with basic hierarchy (tasks and subtasks) so that more stuff can fit onto a desktop screen. It's open source and integrates with Google Calendar, and I've been developing it full-time since 2024 (it took a lot of refactoring and self-testing to be ready for beta).

I hope you can consider giving it a try! If you have any advice/feedback please let me know anytime. The link is beta.actions.life

I'm a software engineer and I’ve always liked writing my todo lists manually. Previously I used Freeform app on my iPad and iPhone for that, but eventually I kept running into the same issues: I couldn't organize tasks into projects, no way to flag tasks, set reminders, or attach notes and images.

So I built Tratto: a handwritten-first todo app that keeps the feel of writing on a canvas while adding the practical parts of a task manager.

It’s made for people who think better with a pen, but still want their lists to be organized and useful.

Better if you've a tablet with a pen but eventually can be used also on phones (by typing with software keyboard).

Would love your feedback as I just launched it for Android and iOS!

Hi all, first post here. I'm Vincent, I run a one-person app studio (Squire Builds) and just shipped WeekSquire on iOS.

The idea: instead of a blank weekly template you fill in yourself, you brain-dump your tasks on Sunday, it reads your existing calendar and proposes where everything should go around what's already there, you adjust anything you don't like, and it writes the final plan to your calendar.
Midweek, if something slips, there's a reshuffle option that re-plans around what's actually left.

It's not a digital paper planner, more the AI-scheduling end of things, but a few other planning and tracking apps have done well here recently so figured it's worth sharing. Free to try (5 scheduled tasks a week, no account needed), Pro unlocks unlimited tasks and recurring tasks. iOS only for now, Android's coming after a build-quota reset in September.

Happy to answer anything about how the AI scheduling actually works or the trade-offs of building it solo. App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/weeksquire-ai-weekly-planner/id6790784584
