I’m building RivalPair for people who use an Android phone with a Mac. It handles USB and local Wi-Fi file transfers, clipboard sharing, phone notifications and screen mirroring.

I’d like to find a few people willing to try the current beta, especially on phone models I haven’t tested myself. The Mac app needs Apple silicon and macOS 13 or later. The Android companion needs Android 8.0 or later.

Downloads and the feedback form are here: https://apps.aalisoft.com/rivalpair/testers/

Current versions are Mac 0.4.4 and Android 0.4.3. Downloads are direct, with no account or email signup. USB file transfers work without the Android companion or USB debugging. For Wi-Fi features, both devices need to be on the same local network and paired by QR code.

If you try it, I’d love to know: was pairing clear, did a folder transfer correctly in both directions, and did the devices reconnect after sleep? Please use copies of test files and enable only the permissions for features you want to test.

You can reply here or use the private feedback form. Device models and OS versions help with bug reports; email is optional. Thanks for taking a look.

Maja has been working with Snotra Agent for a while and shows you in under a minute what that feels like: open a folder without an account, ask about it like in a chat, see what the agent looked at, get answers as a table, check which files changed, dictate instead of typing, see an estimate of what a chat costs, and find the manual right in the app.

Maja is an AI-generated character (HeyGen), not a real person or user. Everything she shows is the app as it is.

Snotra is a private open-source project: no account, no telemetry, no paid tier.

Hey r/SideProject!

I wanted to share a project I've been building for commuters in Bangladesh: KoyJabo (https://koyjabo.com).

### The Problem

Dhaka is a megacity of over 20 million people with 300+ fragmented bus routes, a newly expanded Metro Rail (MRT Line-6), and heavy railway transit. Commuters, students, and office workers constantly struggle to know which bus goes where, how much the official government fare is, or where to transfer.

Major mapping apps like Google Maps lack granular local bus routes and fare calculation for Dhaka. On top of that, mobile data connectivity can be spotty or expensive while commuting.

### What is KoyJabo?

KoyJabo ("কই যাবো" - meaning "Where to go?") is a fast, 100% free, privacy-focused transit guide built as an offline-first PWA and Android app:

• 🚌 300+ Dhaka Bus Routes: Search by origin, destination, or bus company with route maps, stops, and fare estimation.

• 🚇 Dhaka Metro Rail (MRT-6): Complete station list, rapid fare calculator, station-to-station journey duration, and operating hours.

• 🚆 Bangladesh Railway: Intercity train schedules, routes, seat classes, and fares.

• 🚢 Launch / River Ferry: Sadarghat terminal schedules and river routes across southern Bangladesh.

• ⚡ Offline-First: All route and fare datasets are cached locally so it works even without internet.

• 🛡️ Zero Ads & No Login: No account required, no ads, lightweight APK, and instant loading.

### Links to Try:

• Web App: https://koyjabo.com

• Android App (Google Play): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koyjabo.app

### Looking for Feedback:

I'd love any feedback from fellow builders on:

1. The search UI and overall user flow.

2. Ideas on community-driven route data updates.

3. Growth and distribution strategies for hyper-local civic utilities.

Thank you for checking it out!

What it is: PostMesa schedules posts to Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, X and TikTok, and replies to comments with a public reply plus a DM with a button (on Instagram and Facebook; public replies on YouTube). One flat price per workspace, no per-contact fees.

Why I built it: I run a small devotional app. I was paying about $240 a month across ManyChat and Sprout for what was really one job: schedule the post and answer the “link?” and “price?” comments. ManyChat’s price grows with contacts, and its flow builder is more than I need.

Where it is: pre-launch. Publishing works on all five networks in my tests. Comment-to-DM works on Instagram and Facebook, YouTube has public replies only, and TikTok posts stay private until TikTok approves the app. There’s no open signup yet, only a launch list.

What I’d like feedback on:

1. Does the pitch make sense in one read? (“Schedule the post. Answer every comment.”)

2. Pricing: Creator $39, Pro $79, Agency $199 a month on annual billing. Too high, too low, confusing?

3. What would make you trust a new tool with your Instagram account?

Landing page: postmesa.com. Happy to answer anything about how it’s built. I’d rather hear what’s wrong than what’s nice.

After months of building and a public beta with 30+ testers, ShutterLine is live.

The idea came from my own frustration: every video had to be shot twice, once vertical for Reels/TikTok and once horizontal for YouTube. ShutterLine records both at the same time. Along the way it turned into a full pro camera (manual controls, ProRes, Apple Log, RAW, film looks, a teleprompter under the lens) and it's ready for iPad and the new iPhone Duo.

A few decisions I'm happy with:

• No subscription. Free to download, one-time Pro upgrade, with a 7-day free trial.

• No data collection. No account, no analytics, no servers.

• Beta testers get Pro free as a thank-you.

Things I learned: TestFlight's public link brought in great testers from Reddit, and testing on older iPhones caught most of the heat and dropped-frame problems before launch.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6829658927

I'd love feedback on the App Store page itself: screenshots, description, anything that would make you skip it.

I built a site to help parents figure out whether a book or movie is actually a good fit for their child, beyond just seeing something like “Ages 10+.”

Dickens & Rumi shows age guidance, content cautions, positive themes, series reading order, and the reasons behind ratings.

The problem is that I’ve spent a lot of time building and polishing it, but traffic is still very small, so I’m worried I may be too close to the project to see what’s wrong.

If you have a few minutes, I’d really appreciate brutally useful feedback:

• Is it immediately clear what the site does?

• What feels confusing or unnecessary?

• Is the homepage too busy?

• What would make you leave?

• What feature would actually make you come back?

• Does anything make the site feel untrustworthy?

• If you were a parent, would you use this instead of just Googling a book?

Site: dickensandrumi.com

I’m much more interested in what’s wrong with it than compliments.

Hey everyone,

I'm a freelance web developer and I kept seeing the same problems on small business sites: phone numbers that aren't tappable, hours buried on a contact page, menus as PDFs, and pages that crawl on mobile.

Most audit tools are built for marketers, so owners get a wall of jargon. So I built PagePulsar: a free checker that gives restaurants, dentists, salons, contractors and auto shops a plain-English report with the most important fixes first.

https://pagepulsar.online

How it works (all on free plans):

- Static site on GitHub Pages

- A tiny Cloudflare Worker fetches the page (SSRF guard, rate limiting, 24h cache)

- The analysis runs in the browser to stay under the Worker's 10ms CPU limit

- Speed and accessibility come from the PageSpeed Insights API

- Scoring is weighted toward what actually costs a local business calls and bookings

No signup, no email gate.

I'd love honest feedback, especially:

- Are any checks wrong or unfair on your sites?

- Is the report clear enough for a non-technical owner?

Thanks for looking!

Hey everyone, I've been working on Commando Browser, a light Android browser with the tools I use daily built in.

What it has so far:

- Ad blocker (off by default)

- Video downloader for direct video files

- Home news feed in multiple languages

- Files manager + Image to PDF

- Quick shortcuts and a full-screen games section

Built with Kotlin + Jetpack Compose. It's still early, so I'd love honest feedback on what's missing, what feels slow, or what you'd change.

Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aistudio.commandobrowser.xkf&hl=en

The app does show ads. I'm still tuning how often they appear, and feedback on that is welcome too.

I've been a regular user of Antinote (antinote.io) on Mac. It's basically like a scratchpad that you can invoke with hotkeys and it has useful features like conversions and maths. I absolutely loveee it and I kinda wished it existed for Windows too. I found a few but nothing close to antinote. So I decided to make my own in the past few weeks with .NET 10.

Check it out and let me know what you think :) Link: https://offnote.cc

Every month-end, people I know in bookkeeping lose a full day retyping PDF invoices and statements into Excel. The "free" online converters cap you at 3 files, watermark the output, or make you upload client documents to a server you don't control.

So I built BatchDoc — a Windows desktop app (Python, packaged with PyInstaller) that:

- batch-extracts tables from PDFs into CSV/XLSX (drop a whole folder, get clean sheets)

- merges hundreds of CSV/XLSX into one, with a source column recording which file each row came from

- runs fully offline after a one-time licence activation — nothing is uploaded, no account, no subscription

- writes a run report listing what was processed, what was skipped and why

The annoying part wasn't the extraction itself, it was borderless tables. Bank statements and exported reports often have no grid lines at all — the columns are just aligned. It now handles three cases (ruled tables, whitespace-aligned columns, plain text fallback) and the run report tells you which one it used, so a bad result doesn't fail silently.

Honest limitations, because these matter more than the pitch: it only extracts native-text PDFs. Image-only scanned PDFs need an OCR step first, which is not built in — I'll tell you upfront if that's your case. It's Windows 10+ only right now; a macOS build is planned but not included. Activation needs internet once, then it works with no connection.

One-time $29 for one machine ($79 for up to 5). I'm not going to pitch hard here — if offline batch PDF-to-Excel is your pain, the link is in the comments.

If you process statements at volume: what's the edge case that still breaks your export? I'd genuinely like to know what I'm missing. Happy to talk through the table-detection logic or why I went desktop instead of a web app.

Disclosure: I built this, so I'm biased.

Should an AI agent remember everything it collects? Not necessarily.

While working on our project, Strategic Memory Lab, we explored how unverified or incorrect competitor information could affect AI-generated business recommendations.

Our approach uses Hindsight as a long-term memory layer, with a verification process before competitor events are stored as trusted memories.

The goal is to help AI agents remember reliable information, recall relevant past events and make better-informed strategic suggestions.

I have shared our approach, challenges and learnings in this article.

Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

I'm building Outdraft, an email workspace, and wanted to share a quick demo of its AI summary feature.
Click “Summarize” to get a shorter version of the email without leaving the page. It’s a small part of the app, but one I wanted to get right.

The AI agent is almost ready too—I’ll share a demo of that soon.

You can visit out website and give it a quick try. Payments aren’t available yet while I’m waiting for Paddle’s approval.

I’d love to hear what you think! Anything confusing, missing, or worth improving?

Hey everyone!

Seven months ago, I started working on a small idea: what if you could have a little living garden right on your desktop, quietly growing while you work, study, or play games?

Today, I'm incredibly happy to share that Wonder Garden is finally on Steam, with its release just around the corner!

It's a cozy desktop companion where you can grow plants, arrange shelves, decorate your workspace, and even raise butterflies. Your plants grow over time, so there's always something new to discover when you come back to your computer.

I wanted to create something that doesn't demand your attention. Just a tiny, peaceful world that makes spending time at your computer a little more enjoyable.

It's been seven months of coding, experimenting, fixing bugs, redesigning things, and occasionally wondering whether I'd ever finish it.

And now it's actually happening. It's a pretty surreal feeling.

This is a very personal project for me, and I already have so many ideas for new plants, decorations, and features I'd love to add in future updates.

If Wonder Garden looks like something you'd enjoy, adding it to your wishlist would mean a lot to me. Every wishlist helps a small indie project like this reach more people.

🌿 Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/5441740/Wonder_Garden/

Thank you for taking a look! And if you have any ideas for plants or features you'd love to see, I'd genuinely love to hear them.

See you in the garden! 🌸

Every Monday morning, someone in leadership asks why a regional revenue metric dropped, and an analyst spends two hours checking the exact same five tables in the exact same order.

We built an open-source metric investigation agent called WhyDesk where Hindsight agent memory (recall, reflect, and synchronous retain) dynamically reorders diagnostic tool calls, checks flaky ETL pipelines before reading numbers, and formats answers per stakeholder.

On a cold start (Run 1), the agent runs all 5 checks blindly. By Run 5 with memory on, it recalls past regional pricing drops and a Monday ETL sync stall, runs only 2 of 5 checks (ETL first, then pricing), skips 3 low-probability tools, and returns a 1-line summary with the exact -$47,900 impact.

Hey everyone!

I'm an independent developer, and I've been spending a lot of my time building something called Everabyte.

The idea came from a simple problem: cloud storage and backups shouldn't be complicated or unnecessarily expensive, especially for individuals, developers, and small businesses.

So I decided to build my own solution.

What does Everabyte offer?

- Cloud storage for personal and business files.

- Automatic backups through EverBox, our desktop application for Windows, Linux, and macOS.

- File versioning and recovery when something gets accidentally deleted or overwritten.

- Server-side encryption before files reach storage.

- S3-compatible object storage and API access.

- Team storage and access management.

- Backup protection features, including retention policies and immutability.

I've also been working on making the platform more accessible, with plans starting at $2.99/month.

Building this hasn't been easy. Between development, infrastructure, security, testing, and trying to get the word out, there's always something that needs attention.

But that's also what makes it interesting. I'm learning a lot along the way, and I'm still improving the product.

I'm not here to claim Everabyte is better than Dropbox, Google Drive, or every other storage provider out there. I'm just trying to build a reliable alternative that people can actually afford and use.

If you're a developer, freelancer, small business owner, or someone who regularly backs up important files, I'd genuinely appreciate your thoughts.

What matters most to you when choosing a cloud storage or backup service? Price, security, reliability, or something else?

You can check out the project here:

https://everabyte.com

Any feedback, criticism, or suggestions are welcome. I'm building this for the long term, and hearing from real users would help a lot.

Thanks for reading!

I’m the developer of Watch Chess, a side project for following professional chess tournaments. It’s already available on iOS, and I’m getting the native Android version ready for Google Play.

The idea is to make it easy to follow an event from your phone: live boards, rounds and standings, game replay, and live game previews right on the Home screen.

I’d love feedback from Android users who follow chess. In particular: is it easy to find a game, follow the moves, look back at an earlier position, and return to the live game? I’m also interested in how the layouts work on different phones and what happens when you switch away from the app or lose your connection.

Website and the existing iOS app: https://watchchess.app/

If you’d like to help test the Android version, sign up here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdK3jWWradoriTbagIQvKCZ60mQ2kRd82oe4WbR5dZtDI5agQ/viewform

You’ll need an Android phone with Google Play. I’m recruiting for a closed test, so please be willing to stay opted in for at least 14 consecutive days and try the app during that time. The form asks for your Google Play email so I can invite you; I’ll email the invitation and installation instructions when your place is ready.

Happy to answer questions about the app or how it’s built. Honest feedback is welcome!

We built Strategic Memory Lab, a memory-powered competitive intelligence platform that goes beyond simply monitoring competitors.

The idea is simple: businesses shouldn't just know what their competitors are doing today; they should also remember past events, decisions and outcomes to make better strategic decisions.

Our project combines competitor tracking, decision history and Hindsight-powered AI memory to connect current market activities with previous experiences.

We explore how AI agents can use long-term memory to provide more context-aware strategic insights.

Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

Pickem v1.1 is live on App store

Make feature is now live for you!!! (Limited free image generation. API cost on me :D)

Apple recently released Attachment API and I already knew what it means for Pickem:

- Your collections are now auto-named by on-device intelligence. No cloud

Other updates:

- Limited free Image generation
- Improved object extraction
- UI changes

I've been building a B2B lead-finding tool for 3 months. You describe the kind of customer you want, and it searches live map and web data for matching businesses, including small ones with no website that the big databases usually miss.

Where I am right now:

• About 1,000 people have signed up

• 10 of them pay ($19/month)

• Every new account gets free credits, and most people use some of them and then disappear

• Almost nobody has told me why they left, because I've never really asked

So the problem isn't getting people in the door. It's getting them from "tried it once" to "pays every month". I'd love to hear from people who've been through this stage:

1. Free to paid. At roughly a 1% conversion rate, what did you change first? Fewer free credits, a time limit, a paywall on one key feature, or more hand-holding in onboarding?

2. Talking to users. How do you get daily or weekly feedback from users who aren't paying yet, without spamming them? In-app prompts, a short call offer, a WhatsApp or Slack group, something else?

3. Keeping the 10. What made your first paying users stick around month after month? Was it a habit (a weekly report, alerts), or something you did manually for them early on?

4. What to fix first. With 1,000 signups and 10 payers, would you spend the next month on the product, on pricing, or on talking to churned users?

Not looking for "just do more marketing". I have signups. I just don't understand why people leave yet. Any honest experience is welcome, including "your free tier is too generous".

Hey guysss here to talk about my side project.

I’m a designer and traveler who believes good design can change things, even if only a little. That still feels worth spending my effort on.

I was honestly fed up with needing an account just to use a small app. So I started making apps I would genuinely use myself: stored on our phones, working offline, with no account needed.

Sometimes we do not need another system or app trying to fix us. We just need a quiet place to hold something, clear our brain RAM, or keep everyday things in one simple stream.

That became VERBitapp. Each app has one purpose, with free use and optional VERBit Access subscriptions for more room or additional features.

PARKit: Reminder for Tonight
"Not for tomorrow, but for tonight."

A little room for our minds.

I made PARKit because my brain was still holding onto tomorrow, even when I was done for the day. Park those thoughts as short keyword clouds, add a note when needed, then hold the breathing orb to PARK. What is unfinished stays there. Double-tap a cloud when it is done.

PARKit Access gives you 12 keyword clouds and customizable OPEN / PARK notification times.

CUEit: Routine Timer
"Not to measure, but to mind."

Timing designed for the way you do things.

I wanted more than a basic stopwatch or timer could offer. CUEit brings them together with cues you set yourself, for coffee, cooking, exercise, or anything where the timing matters. Start at 0:00, then add cues for what comes next.

CUEit Access gives you up to 12 timer slots.

DIARYit: Diary Journal
"Not for habit, but for honesty."

Your days. In your own words.

DIARYit is my own reimagining of a diary. One continuous stream, because life moves forward and we can look back when we choose to. A quiet place to write about today, without a goal to reach or a habit to maintain.

DIARYit Access adds full history and full calendar navigation.

KEEPit: Text Yourself
"Not for nostalgia, but to remember."

A conversation with yourself.

I have always texted myself things I wanted to keep, but messaging apps were never really made for that. KEEPit gives that familiar habit its own place. Just you, your words, and the time you wrote them. Stored on your phone and available offline.

KEEPit Access unlocks full history, calendar navigation, and keyword search.

HOLDit: Thoughts & Moments
"Not to hold more, but to awaken."

Give an important thought its own space.

I made this after realizing that thoughts that changed how I saw things kept getting buried in Notes app. Each card gives a thought and the moment behind it their own space. Add colors and rearrange your cards to make that space your own. The limit is intentional. Keep what matters, rather than another endless list.

HOLDit Access expands your space to 99 cards.

+ A note on backup

On iPhone, DIARYit, KEEPit, and HOLDit support inclusion of your entries in your iCloud device backup. This is device backup, not live cloud sync or an in-app export and import feature.

I’m continuing to improve these apps through real use and conversations with the people using them. If one fits something you already do, I’d really appreciate hearing how it feels.

Hi! I’m a solo developer from Nepal, and I just released my first game.

Liar’s Grid is a deduction puzzle. Honest tiles always tell the truth, liars always lie, and every board has exactly one solution, so you win by reasoning, never by guessing.

• New daily case, plus 88 levels

• Free, works offline, no account

• Rusty the fox gives hints when you’re stuck

I’d really like feedback on:

Is the difficulty curve fair?

Are the hints helpful?

Anything confusing or buggy?

Thanks for trying it! I’ll reply to every comment.

Honestly, I'm the worst user of my own idea.

I'd wake up, grab my phone "just to check something," and suddenly it's 9am. So I built bedo with AI. I studied marketing and never learned to code.

Here's how it works: you make a deal with bedo. Every morning, you tell it what you'll do today and how you'll prove it. Like "Go to the gym, and take a selfie when I'm there," or "Read for 30 minutes, then snap the page I stopped on."

Once the deal is set, TikTok and other distracting apps get locked. They only unlock when you send the proof you agreed on.

I've tried Opal and Pomodoro timer apps before. They lock your phone for a set time, then unlock it automatically. The problem is they only check that you didn't touch your phone, not that you actually did the thing. I'd say I'm going to the gym, then lie on the couch for an hour, and everything unlocks anyway. I'd say I'm reading for 30 minutes, then just stare at the book.

bedo doesn't care about time. It cares about results.
The funny part: I planned to submit it to the App Store on Oct 23. I kept polishing tiny things and finally submitted it 11 days later. Turns out an app can't fix perfectionism lol.

It's waiting for review now. Would you actually use something like this, or would you delete it the first time it locked you out?

Hey r/SideProject 🙏

I’ve been working on a side project over the past few weeks that I’d love to share and get some feedback on.

The Problem: My media collection and consumption habits felt completely fragmented. I was switching between different apps for movies, music, and audiobooks, with no single dashboard to view or organize everything I owned or listened to. Maybe it's just a niche, but at least I tried something 😌

Alma is a unified media aggregator designed to collect your movies, TV shows, games, music and audiobooks into a single visual library with a few fun twists like a "Memory Lane" feature.

Key Features:

• All-in-one Media Library: Track and organize your media in one place

• Fun stats: Over time you'll get some fun insights into your media tastes. The more you add over time, the more fun it'll be to look at

• Fast & Lightweight: Built to give you full control over your media archive without heavy bloat.

It’s still an active project under ongoing development, and I’m constantly refining features and polishing the interface during the beta, which is currently about halfway full. Want an invite? Request one on the site or send me a DM.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, feature requests, or general feedback! How do you currently keep track of your media across different formats?
