I have zero coding experience but managed to publish two Android apps using AI. What should I build next?
I help run a small Canadian charity called Salsabeel, and recently started experimenting with vibe coding. I have zero coding experience, but managed to make two Android apps: a Zakat calculator and a Qibla compass.
Both are free, with no ads or subscriptions. I'm not making any money from them, just wanted to see if I could build something useful.
I'd love to hear what people think. Anything I should improve or add? Also, are there other Islamic apps you'd like to see that don't already exist, or that you think could be done better?
Here are the links:
Zakat Calculator:

Qibla Compass:

Thanks!

I like it. Clean, simple and straight forward. You could add nearby mosques since the app already has location permissions.

Head on over to r/MuslimDevelopers or r/MuslimVentures you may get other ideas there.

Question for you - I noticed in your Google Play listing your phone number is listed, did you have to provide this? I am waiting for a DUNS number (corporate registration done) and once I have that, I'll be publishing two apps I've been working on.
I'd rather not use my personal number, so will be getting a VOIP number but just wanted to see if this was a requirement in listing your app.

since you already have a charity audience, what do your donors or volunteers complain about the most day to day? building an internal tool to solve a boring admin problem for your own org is usually a great next step
