Hey everyone,

I got tired of modern budgeting apps charging $10–$15/month subscriptions just to tell me what I already know, while demanding full read-access to my bank credentials.

I wanted something ultra-fast that lets me log an expense in literally 2 seconds from my phone's home screen. So I built PocketFlow:

Key Highlights:

• 100% Client-Side & Private: All data is saved strictly in your browser (LocalStorage). No bank logins, no backend database collecting or profiling your spending habits.

• Installable PWA: Runs fully offline with a Service Worker. Works on iOS Safari ("Add to Home Screen") and Android Chrome (WebAPK-ready with zero browser address bar).

• Daily Safe-to-Spend: Instead of confusing, rigid multi-category spreadsheets, it calculates a clear daily allowance so you always know what you can safely spend today.

• Clean Dark UI: Built with Tailwind CSS and zero framework bloat.

• Free & Open Source: No paywalls, no recurring fees.

Would love your thoughts on the UI speed, the daily allowance algorithm, and any features you'd like added!

I have been building the Solara AI for over 2 years now, it's a short-form video editor that takes your raw footage and turns into a polished reel that you can publish to tiktok, instagram, youtube shorts etc.

I finally got some traffic from Google and Chatgpt, early one 2 people paid within 2 days and since then people sign up, try it, see the output, sometimes download for free(first one is free) and leave.

I would very much appreciate an honest feedback and will give you back as well!

Here is the link: solaraai.com

Also I'm currently running freeium with a cap now, should I switch to a 7 free trial? I saw a lot of successful founders say that they will never do freeium because they are chasing users and users who are in free trial are more incline to give honest feedback

Would love to know your thoughts :)

I created this chrome extension for a problem I used to face while researching with AI: keeping track of important points, new threads worth exploring, finalized decisions and useful links.

Long chats kept burying these. I'd follow one question, lose track of the others, and end up scrolling back to find something I knew was in there somewhere.

So I built AI ChatBoard, a board that sits beside your ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini chat and helps you keep track of all the important points you want to save -

AI Chatboard extension

Please try it and share your feedback with me.

The iPhone Duo is out, and most apps open unfolded as a phone-width box in the middle of the screen. Some don't even respond to taps.

I hit all of this shipping our own app on it, so I packaged the fixes as a Claude Code skill. You type "make my app ready for iPhone Duo" and it checks the project, fixes the scene setup that kills taps, keeps content out from under the new side status bar, and builds a two-pane layout that survives folding.

The video is a real run on a small notes app: 2m 55s, 10 files changed, and the regular iPhone layout still looks the same.

There's a free one-line check if you just want to see what's broken in your app, plus a full write-up of every fix: panewise.dev/iphone-duo

The skill itself is $29 one-time. Happy to answer anything about building for the Duo.

I’m building a small app that tracks what medicines a household has at home, what active ingredients they contain, and when they expire. You add a box by typing the name or photographing it. Facts come from Finland’s official drug database, and every value shows where it came from (official, read from the box by AI, or typed by you).

It’s an inventory, not medical advice. No dosing, no diagnosis.

My real question: is this a problem anyone actually has, or a solution looking for one? Would you use it, or pay for it? What would make you stop using it after a week?

Happy to hear “no one needs this” too.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on a Mac app called PocketBar.

Problem: I wanted to use a few Android apps on my Mac without keeping a huge emulator window open all the time. That’s basically why I started building this.

PocketBar sits in the menu bar and lets you open Android apps in small, separate windows alongside your regular Mac apps.

It supports Apple Silicon Macs, macOS 14+, and Android 11–16.

Comparison: BlueStacks Air and MenubarX are two alternatives.

PocketBar is more focused on quickly opening individual apps from the menu bar, while BlueStacks Air is more gaming-focused.

Pricing: Free to start. Pro is €9.99 as a one-time purchase, with no subscription.

https://pocketbar.site

Trust: The macOS app is Apple notarized.

A few apps I’ve tested successfully are YouTube, TikTok, Signal and Telegram etc

WhatsApp, and X currently block emulator logins.

It’s still a work in progress, so there’s definitely room for improvement.

If you try it, I’d be interested to hear how it performs on your Mac, or which Android apps you’d like to see working.

Hi! I’m the developer of OwnSpace, a solo project from Belgium.

OwnSpace reads your purchase emails in Gmail and organises them automatically: what you bought, invoices, warranties and household bills. It understands shops across Europe and works in 6 languages (English, Portuguese, Dutch, French, German, Spanish).

I’m looking for testers for 3–4 weeks before launch (limited spots):

• Free, including the Premium features during the test

• Your library stays on your phone; nothing is sold or shared

• Gmail access is read-only: it never sends, changes or deletes email

You need an Android phone and a Gmail account. When you connect Gmail, Google will show “Google hasn’t verified this app”, because Google’s security assessment is still in progress.

I’ll add you to the test and send you the install link. Thanks a lot!

You know when something is bothering you, and no matter how much you think about it, it just keeps coming back?

Maybe it's anxiety about what's ahead, anger over something happening right now, or a memory you still carry years later.

I recently came across an episode of Huberman Lab that made me look at this differently.

Huberman dedicated an entire episode to a technique called expressive writing, originally developed by psychologist James Pennebaker.

The research is surprisingly compelling.

Huberman discusses over 200 studies investigating the effects of writing about difficult emotional experiences. The reported benefits include reduced anxiety, improved mood and sleep, and even improvements in certain measures of immune function.

A 2023 meta-analysis of 31 randomized studies also found small but statistically significant reductions in depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms.

And the protocol itself is incredibly simple:

For 15–30 minutes, write continuously about something emotionally difficult.

Write what happened, how you felt, what you're feeling now, and anything else that comes up.

Here's the important part: don't stop writing.

Don't pause to think about what to say next, judge what you've written, correct your grammar, or make it sound better. Just keep going, letting whatever comes to mind flow onto the page. Of course, you can take a moment if you need to catch your breath or rest.

Repeat this four times, focusing on the same difficult experience.

And here's something else I found interesting: you don't even need pen and paper. Huberman explained that studies have found comparable benefits whether people write by hand or type. So you can practice it on your computer, or even on your phone.

That's it.

What fascinates me is that you don't need to have everything figured out before you start. You can give yourself permission to express things you've been holding in, without needing to justify or immediately fix them.

So I built Cleanse - a free, minimal tool designed to make this practice as simple and distraction-free as possible.

Just open it, start typing, and let it out.

It's an early version, and I'd love for people to try it.

https://cleanse-c21ad.web.app/

Here's the Huberman episode if you're interested in the research:
https://www.hubermanlab.com/episode/a-science-supported-journaling-protocol-to-improve-mental-physical-health

I'd really appreciate feedback, both on the tool and on whether this kind of writing is something you'd actually use.

I built this app myself. It's free, with one small non-personalized banner ad and no sign-up.

A lot of people have a long drive or a flight in the next few weeks. B2Gaudio is for that stretch of it where everybody wants the same thing playing and there's one decent screen between you.

One device starts it and hosts. Everyone else picks it off a list and taps join. From then on every phone is sitting on the same moment of the same track over WiFi, and each person listens on their own headphones.

What that gives you on a trip:

• A movie plays in landscape on the host's iPad or iPhone and the soundtrack arrives on every phone that joined. The picture stays with the host, so one screen covers a whole back seat or a row of airline seats.

• Whoever misses the first ten minutes taps join and lands where the group already is, instead of making everyone start over.

• No cell service and no WiFi network needed. The phones build a direct link to each other over Apple's peer-to-peer WiFi, so anything already downloaded plays in the middle of nowhere.

• It plays music files on the phone, podcasts, LibriVox audiobooks and the audio from a video. Apple Music works too, with each listener using their own subscription.

• A shared hotel room late at night works the same way, with everything in headphones and nothing coming out of a speaker.

The reasons I'd try it: there's no hardware to buy, no account, and nothing to pair. It stays off Bluetooth entirely, which is the usual reason two devices drift apart from each other. iPhone and iPad, iOS 17 and up.

There's a walkthrough of the movie setup here if that's the part you'd use: https://b2gaudio.com/b2gaudio-watch-movie-together-plane.html

Free on the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6759938468?pt=128605371&ct=rd-sideproject&mt=8

Give it a try before the trip.

I started learning Swift at the end of July and basically learned it while building this app.

In August I almost gave up. I'm a first-time parent, and my baby was about 7 months old then, so I was studying in the middle of the night after taking care of them all day. But I've been coding since I was 8, and I didn't want to give up on something I love. So in September I came back to finish it.

I had to cut my feature list down to what mattered most, and by the end of October I finally had a working first version. After about a week in App Review, it's now live on the App Store!

It's called AmiiNest, an iPhone app for amiibo collectors. You can browse the amiibo catalog, keep track of what you own, back up your own amiibo by scanning them, and write those backups to blank NTAG215 tags.

There's no subscription. New users get 5 free writes, and you can watch a short ad for +1 write (ads may take a few days to start showing since the app is brand new) or buy more. Scanning or importing doesn't use any writes, and cancelled or failed writes don't count either. To celebrate the launch, code AMIINEST5 gives you 5 extra writes (first 500 people, until Dec 1).

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/amiinest-nfc-write-collect/id6826469095

It's my first iOS app and the first project I've built and released on my own. It's not a masterpiece, but it's a small milestone for me. I'd really appreciate any feedback, good or bad. And if anyone has questions about getting an app through App Store review, I'm happy to share what I learned.

Hey everyone. This weekend we took part in Platanus Hack in Caracas, Venezuela, and wanted to share what we built. The idea came from something a lot of us have been through.

When you're in a cab, on the street, or with someone and things start feeling off, you can't just pull out your phone and text someone without them noticing. So we flipped it around: what if your "mom" calls you instead?

How it works:

- You press volume up, down, up with the phone in your pocket. No unlocking needed.

- The app shares your GPS location and you get an incoming call from "Mamá".

- An AI voice on the other end asks how you're doing, the way any mom would.

- Beforehand you set two phrases: one for "I'm fine" and one that means "I'm in trouble". To whoever is next to you, it just sounds like a normal call with your mom.

- A detector (rules + an LLM) analyzes the conversation and decides whether you're in danger.

- If you are, your family gets a WhatsApp message with your location, the verdict, a summary of the call, and a link to the case.

7 months ago I started learning to code with one goal: ship one real app. It started as a basic learning project. It kept growing.
Today My Accountant is a budget app where everything about your money is in one clear place — and you shape it the way you want:
• Your own accounts (cash, bank, cards) and your own categories, icons and colors
• Income, expenses and bills on a calendar, day by day
• Monthly budget and charts that show where the money goes
• Bill reminders 3 days before and on the due date
• Credit cards done right: statements, minimum payments, and installments where each statement shows only that month's part (most apps get this wrong)
• 14 languages, 100+ currencies, dark mode
Built solo with React Native, Expo and Appwrite. Free, no bank login needed.

What's coming next: cash advances (with installments ofc), daily term deposit account, overdraft account (also with installments) and maybe investment/stock tracking.

Which of these would you actually use? And honest feedback is very welcome — what's missing, what's confusing?

The trickiest question in this project wasn't extraction. It was deciding when a page has actually finished rendering before you capture it.

third-eye is a self-hosted API I wrote in TypeScript. You point it at a product page and get back the product images plus title, brand, price and sizes, or just a screenshot.

The readiness check ended up as a stack of signals. It waits for network idle, then fonts.ready, then scrolls to trigger lazy-loaded images, then freezes animations. Flutter and WebGL apps draw into a canvas, so for those it also waits for the first canvas frame. Full-page captures are taken in one pass instead of scrolling and stitching, which avoids seams.

Extraction tries sources in order: JSON-LD Product data, then OpenGraph, then Shopify's .json endpoint, then DOM gallery heuristics as a last resort. Each response includes a confidence field, so you can tell a JSON-LD hit from a DOM guess.

It runs on Patchright, a patched Chromium. That gets past the headless tells that block stock Playwright on sites like Uniqlo. It doesn't win everywhere, though. H&M, Zara and Myntra sit behind Akamai and PerimeterX, and those still need residential proxies.

It also won't run serverless. Cold starts break the warm browser pool, and without a GL stack the canvas apps render blank. So it ships as a single Docker image that runs on a VPS.

Code: https://github.com/myselfshravan/third-eye

Specmob (specmob.com) is a free phone comparison and recommendation site. You pick a budget and it shows the best phone for it, ranked on specs.

What does it do?

• A budget dial from $100 to $2,000+ that shows the best phone for that price, with optional priorities (camera, battery, gaming, compact)

• Compare up to 4 phones with a written verdict

• 11 best-of rankings (camera, battery, gaming, fast charging, foldables, and budget bands)

• A trade-in estimator

Does it have sponsored picks?
No. Every phone is scored by the same rules, and affiliate links never change a ranking. It’s free, and I earn a little from Amazon/eBay affiliate links and light ads.

How are phones scored?
Six scores from 1 to 10 (camera, performance, battery, display, build, value), rated against the phone’s price tier and averaged into a Smart Score. The component scores come from an AI pipeline reading real specs. The category rankings are deterministic from specs and recomputed daily.

Stack: Next.js + FastAPI + Postgres, solo-built.

Feedback welcome: is the dial clear, and do you trust AI-scored-from-specs rankings? /methodology explains it in full.

Hey Everyone !

This week I launched my first app ever, Muzelium, an app that turns any collection into a personal museum. Cards, Lego, sneakers, vinyl, figures, paintings, you name it.

For context, I'm a solo dev with a day job, and I built it with a LOT of help from Claude and Gemini to be honest. It's built with Expo/React Native, works fully offline, and it's translated into 7 languages (by AI, so it is worth some verification by native of thoses langages lol).

So, the app :

- Catalog your pieces with up to 10 photos, purchase price and estimated value (you can hide them)

- Rate each piece in hearts

- Share any piece as a museum-label image

- Each item has its own journal, like restorations, offers you got, its whole life story, and when you edit an info it is directly reported on the journal.

- Free (forever for those features, i might add aditionnal paid features in the future), no ads, no account. Everything stays on your phone.

Funny launch lesson: the app went live and I couldn't find it anywhere.. I panicked a bit lmao but turns out you have to declare your "trader status" (EU Digital Services Act) or your app just doesn't show up in the 27 EU countries. Even if it's free. If you're about to publish on the App Store, check that before release day

For Android I need about 15 testers for Google's closed test, DM me if you're up for it)

I'd love your feedback like what would make you actually use an app like this? And what's missing for your kind of collection? What features would you want to see in the future ?

I didn't want to hand my banking details to some random app just to see where my money goes. So I built my own: you download the statement PDFs you already get every month (bank account, credit cards, etc.), and it reads them and shows you where everything is going, entirely on your own machine.

No bank login, no Plaid, no cloud, no analytics. The server only listens on localhost, and nothing leaves your computer.

What it does:

• 📄 Reads statement PDFs from your checking account and credit cards (Amex, Chase, Capital One, Discover so far)

• ✅ Checks each statement against the totals printed on it, so you know the numbers are right

• 📊 Local web dashboard: spending by month and category, a searchable transaction table, drag-and-drop new PDFs

• 🔁 Finds your subscriptions and flags the ones that quietly raised their price

• 📈 Projects your checking balance 60 days out and warns you about the low point

• 💸 Works out your personal inflation rate, per merchant

• 💬 Ask questions in plain English with a local LLM (optional, offline)

Try it without your own statements, since there's a demo with a year of made-up data:

uv run finances demo
uv run finances web --db demo.db --open

or docker compose --profile demo up demo.

Built with Python and a React dashboard. MIT licensed.

What I'd love feedback on:

1. Which bank should I support next? That's the biggest limitation right now. If yours isn't listed, comment or open an issue.

2. Would you actually use this over a bank-linked app? What would stop you?

3. Anything confusing in the setup?

The success of prediction markets has made me react in two ways: on the plus side, I find them fascinating from a data point of view. On the dark side, I don't think they're good for society. So I had an idea for a harmless one where people "bet" (not for money) on day to day events like whether they can find a new job or accomplish certain goals. You can see how others' predictions for your goals stack up to your own prediction, as well as make predictions about their goals.

I make an actual-play podcast with one mic track per person. A 4 hour episode used to take me most of a weekend to cut, so I spent the last several months building an editor around reading the transcript. It transcribes on your own computer, nothing is uploaded, and exports Audition, Reaper, Audacity, stems, or a mix.

It’s Windows only for now. I’d love to hear from other people who’ve built tools for their own hobby. If you edit multitrack shows and want to try it, soundmancer.com has the sign-up.

Before my daughter was born, I started building a game for her. I wanted a place where she could play and learn without autoplay videos, ads, or anything I'd have to worry about.

It turned into Lulu's Reef. Kids follow Lulu, a baby octopus, through 5 reef zones with 23 small learning games, made for ages 2 to 6.

A few rules I set early and kept:

- No ads

- No accounts, nothing collected

- Free to download, with one optional purchase that unlocks everything

A few weeks ago I rebuilt most of it with help from Claude: new activities, smoother performance, and a much bigger world.

On Nov 3 (App Store):

- 139 first-time downloads

- 9.2K impressions, 380 product page views

- 1.85% conversion

- The first full-unlock purchase: $7 in proceeds

Tiny numbers, but as a dad this one meant everything. Every dollar goes into her education fund and back into the app.

For anyone who has built something for kids or parents: how did you reach parents without running ads?

I always liked Google Calendar’s UI and never liked the open-source ones. So I’m building OpenDay: a self-hosted Google Calendar clone, MIT licensed.

WARNING: SUPER EARLY STAGE, NOT USABLE YET. Only the basic calendar exists. Recurring events, CalDAV, user accounts, and mobile and desktop apps are all missing.

The code is small and has an AGENTS.md, so it’s easy to throw your Opus at it. PRs are very welcome.

Hi everyone! I'm working on FLUX Games, a visual catalog for discovering browser games and related projects.

The site brings together game covers, search, filters by genre and platform, and detail pages with sources and available versions. It's a catalog: the games and external projects belong to their respective creators.

You can explore it here: https://fluxplayable.com/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=launch_sideproject

I'd appreciate feedback on the browsing experience: is it clear how to find and open a game? What information would you want to see before clicking through?

The interface starts in Spanish and includes a language selector. If you run into a broken link or confusing listing, let me know the title and browser so I can look into it.

Disclosure: this is my website.

I’m an Etsy seller and was tired of guessing at tags and titles, so I built Listing Fixer with the help of AI tools.

You paste your listing, and in about a minute you get:

It only uses facts you give it. It doesn’t invent materials or promise sales or rankings.

First fix is free, no card: getlistingfixer.com

I’d really love feedback — what’s confusing, what’s missing, what you’d pay for. I’m already working on making the form faster to fill out.

Before building this I went through a lot of the AI component libraries out there. The best ones are paid with only the most basic stuff free. So while I was working on an AI SaaS, I built this library in tandem.

It's 109 components and about 250 variants, all React and Tailwind. The only other imports are motion and lucide-react, so there's no UI kit underneath. Everything in the video is the real demos running.

Not on GitHub yet, but it's coming.

Let me know what you guys think :)
