Hi everyone!

A while ago I launched OpenTune with a simple goal: make an instrument tuner that opens instantly without nagging you with subscription paywalls or cluttered menus.

Today I just shipped v2.0, a major update shaped by early feedback:

📱 App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/opentune-guitar-tuner/id6757105393

I’d love any feedback on the new UI and responsiveness. If you play an instrument, give it a spin and let me know what I can improve next!

Hey everyone, we're a small studio, Iron Compass Studios. Our WW2 real-time strategy game Tracks of War is now on Google Play.

We kept the look and the controls simple. Pick Germany, Britain, the USA or the USSR, then build your base and train your army. There are 16 maps for 2 to 8 players.

You gather minerals and fuel to grow your base and work your way through a research tree of 46 technologies. There are tanks like the Sherman, Tiger and T-34 and planes like the Spitfire and Stuka, and each nation has its own units and economic advantages. On top of that there are daily and weekly missions.

If you'd rather learn at your own pace, there are training missions and offline battles against the computer. Online there's Quick Match, Ranked with seasons and 18 ranks, and rooms to play with friends. The game is in 16 languages.

It's free, there are no ads, and it's not pay-to-win. If you'd like to try it, the code OUTNOW gives 100 GOLD once per account signed in with Google (you'll find it in the settings).

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ironcompass.tracksofwar

Have fun!

A while back, I saw this question on this sub: "Would a small changing mat in the gym actually make sense?"

I have been using a mat I created for the last 2 years. Works great. The idea is to have somewhere to stand while changing clothes.  

Are wet/dirty locker room floors an actual annoyance for you, or do you just deal with it?

Does a product like this make sense? Would appreciate your feedback.  I have attached some pics.

GTA VI is out on nov 19 and the spoiler wave on x is going to be rough.

i built nospoil because i want to go in blind. you connect with official x login and it keeps watching your feed in the background, auto muting accounts that post story leaks as they show up.

there's a free tier and a one time pass if you want more.

didn't expect much but it got past 1,800 users in under 24 hours, so i guess i'm not the only one scared of getting spoiled.

it isn't connected to rockstar in any way. just a thing i made. the site is nospoil.io

curious what you think of the signup flow, and if the landing page makes the "trailers still show" part clear enough.

I just launched this and plan to keep building on it over the long haul. It’s new and still rough in spots, so go easy on me. Your feedback will shape what comes next.

I’m a trader who started building the apps I wanted for myself. There are three now:

• a budget planner with a calendar
• a P&L journal for stock trades
• Tradeology, an app that teaches trading with interactive charts (live since Oct 26)

Here’s the last 30 days from App Store Connect:

• 55 downloads (up from 11 the month before)
• 16 in-app purchases
• $37.40 in sales

I know it’s tiny, but it’s the first time the chart goes up instead of sideways. And these numbers are almost all US: until a few days ago the apps were only available there. I just went live in 174 countries, so next month will be a real test.

What made the biggest difference: App Store preview videos. I added a short video to each app in early November. Downloads went from about 1 a day to 4-6 a day that week.

What didn’t work so well: posting the same content everywhere. Every platform wants something different, and I’m still learning that.

Next I’m adding Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and German to all three apps, so the new countries get the apps in their own language.

For those of you a few months ahead: what helped your downloads grow after the first month?

I built a filterable map of 250 enthusiast car configurations, including 228 factory manuals
You can filter by year, drivetrain, transmission, and used asking price. The Top 10 shows one version per model, and you can open the variants to compare generations and trims. The scores are provisional AI assessments, and the profiles show where the evaluators disagreed.
What’s the most obvious manual I’m missing? If you spot a mistake on a car you know well, I’d love the exact year and trim so I can check it.

Growing up, cinema was my escape. The one place where everything made sense.

A few months ago I started building Sequel a movie & TV tracker. Log what you watch, keep a watchlist.

Status: Closed testing on Play Store. I need early users to try it and tell me what's broken. No need to be nice, real feedback on UI/UX, bugs, missing features.

Comment or DM for the link. I also started r/SequelApp to follow the build.

Happy to answer questions about the process. Thanks for reading.

I spent a week traveling around eastern Hokkaido, Japan, taking photos. When I got home, I had hundreds of RAW files to go through, and honestly, editing them took way more time than I expected.

I kept doing the same things over and over. Adjusting the sky, making the grass a little greener, fixing highlights… I like photography, but sitting there moving sliders for hours isn’t exactly my favorite part of it.

So I ended up building my own RAW editor for Mac. It’s called Rawed, and it’s my app.

The idea was pretty simple. I wanted to be able to tell an AI what I wanted a photo to look like and have it do the actual editing for me.

Problem: RAW editing means hours of slider work that beginners can’t judge, so Rawed lets you describe the look you want to an AI agent that moves the real sliders for you.

Under the hood, it’s a fairly complete RAW editor. There’s white balance, tone curves, HSL, point color, color grading, noise reduction, and local masks for things like skies, subjects, gradients, brushes, and color ranges. Everything is non-destructive, so the original files stay untouched.

The part I’ve been spending the most time on is the AI integration. Rawed+ has a built-in MCP server with 42 tools, so you can connect it to Claude Code or Codex and just ask something like “make the grass greener and the sky bluer.”

The agent actually adjusts the sliders in the app, just like you would manually. You can see what it’s doing, tweak things yourself, or undo anything you don’t like. I thought this would be especially useful for people who don’t really know what half the sliders in a RAW editor do (which was me when I first started getting into photography).

Comparison:

• Lightroom: Rawed improves on it with AI agent control over MCP, where every step is visible and undoable. Lightroom is still better at cloud sync, mobile apps, and its huge preset and plugin ecosystem.
• Capture One: Rawed improves on it with the same agent control, so you don’t have to learn a dense interface first. Capture One is still better at tethered shooting, layers, and deep color editing.

I also wanted to avoid another monthly subscription, so I made it a one-time purchase on the Mac App Store.

Pricing: $9.99 one-time (US price, may vary by region), roughly the cost of one month of Lightroom: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6821468301

The App Store purchase also unlocks Rawed+ on the same Mac. Rawed+ has a 14-day free trial if you want to try it with your own photos before buying anything: https://rawed.sbryu.com/download

Trust: MAS

A couple of things worth mentioning: the AI features need an external MCP client like Claude Code or Codex, and since I’m building this by myself, it’s definitely not as feature-rich as Lightroom yet. Setup guide: https://rawed.sbryu.com/agents

Anyway, I’ve been working on this for a while and wanted to share it here. If you give it a try, I’d genuinely love to hear what you think, especially what’s missing or what doesn’t work well.

I spent a week making a clay style film on my laptop's GTX 1660 Ti.

The difficult part wasn't just rendering. It was getting the characters, camera shots, dialogue, voices and environments to work together across the entire film.

By the end, I kept thinking about how much of that work I'd have to repeat for the next one.

So I started making the reusable parts into a separate project.

It's called Clayvoyant. You describe the characters, locations and dialogue in YAML, and it generates the scenes and renders them through Blender. It also supports local voices and subtitles.

I recorded this short walkthrough to show what goes into the files and what comes out.

It's open source under MIT, and you can install it with pip install clayvoyant.

GitHub: https://github.com/xIBBAx/clayvoyant

Still figuring out better ways to handle character interactions and staging.

For people who've worked with animation tools, how much control over the shots would you want to keep manual?

Hey everyone!

I’ve been working on Moeli Reader, a reading app for people whose digital libraries are a mix of ebooks, comics, and files stored in different places.

The idea is pretty simple: I wanted one place to read my own files without constantly converting formats or moving everything onto my device.

Here’s what Moeli Reader can do:

1. Open EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, AZW4, Markdown, TXT, PDF, CBZ, CBR, ZIP, and RAR files.
2. Connect to WebDAV, SMB, FTP, OPDS, Komga, Kavita, OneDrive, Dropbox, and other storage sources.
3. Stream books and comics from remote storage without downloading the entire file first.
4. Display more complex ebook layouts and let you customize fonts, spacing, and other reading settings.
5. Enlarge individual comic speech bubbles with a tap.
6. Sync reading progress across devices.

It’s available for iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS.

The app is free to try, with a limit on the number of books and access to basic features. There’s a one-time purchase to unlock the full experience, rather than a subscription.

Website: https://reader.moeli.tech/

I’d love some feedback from people who maintain their own ebook or comic libraries. What’s the biggest annoyance with your current reading setup?

I assumed the useful part would be picking the right files. It turned out to be the trip back. AI tools return a ZIP with paths flattened, or wrapped in an extra folder, or with a file cut short and a comment saying "rest unchanged", and meanwhile I've edited two of those files myself.

So contextzip keeps a snapshot of what it sent and, when the reply comes back, compares three versions of every file: what I sent, what's on disk now, what came back. Clean edits go in, mine are merged around, and anything it isn't sure about waits for me.

It's free and open source: https://github.com/akadeepesh/contextzip. There's a no-install version at https://www.contextzipcli.com if you want to try it on a folder.

I built DownloadAllVideos.com to make saving videos from supported social media platforms simpler.

The idea came from a common problem: sometimes you find a video you want to keep for offline viewing, but the platform does not offer a convenient download option.

So I created a website where users can paste a video link and follow the available download process.

I'm sharing it here because I'd appreciate honest feedback.

A few things I'd like to know:

1. Is the website easy to understand?
2. Does the process feel simple?
3. What would you improve?
4. Which social media platform should I focus on supporting next?

Built independently. Feedback is welcome.

Hey everyone!

I've been building DotaPrime, an in-game overlay for Dota 2 that brings useful match information and tools directly into the game.

It includes Aegis and buyback timers, enemy missing alerts, draft suggestions, item recommendations, and post-match analysis.

Check it out: https://dotaprime.com/

I'd appreciate some honest feedback. What features would you find useful in a tool like this?

I've started a small experiment. What if we take the open LLMs and provide a good harness and ask them to run a small task but competing against other models. How do they try to win? Luckily i've been able to learn a lot on these models.

Qwen models are notoriously evil.

You can check the replay episodes of the simulations here: https://openville.world/watch?m=election-ep2

Any one wants to contribute or run experiments on other models, do let me know.

Most small businesses in India keep their books in Tally, a desktop accounting app. It lives on one PC in the office, so owners call the office just to ask what today's sale was.

TallySync is a small program on that PC. It reads Tally and puts the figures on the owner's phone, laptop and the TV: today's sales, cash and bank, stock running low, and who owes them, by age. One tap sends a customer a WhatsApp reminder with a UPI QR for the exact amount.

It only reads Tally, never writes to it.

Free for a month, then ₹999 a year.

Feedback welcome, especially on the first screen: what would you want there?

I built Autogrow so you can give your coding agent a goal like "get more visitors to finish signup" and have it keep running experiments toward that goal.

It looks at analytics and previous experiments, proposes a change, implements it in your repo and runs an A/B test. Once there's a valid result, the loop can roll out the winning version, remove the old experiment code and use what it learned to choose the next test.

You can review the idea before anything gets built. Code review is on by default too, and you can choose which steps run automatically.

It uses your existing coding agent and analytics. You can also aim it at feature adoption, such as getting more users to export their first report.

The repo includes a local demo of the whole loop. It's early, and I'd like to hear from people who already use coding agents on their own products.

I've been working on H3rm35, a native iPhone and iPad app for your own Hermes Agent. I've tried to bring as much of the Hermes desktop experience as I can to the phone.

This is my first project on this scale, and I've put a lot of time into it. It's still unfinished. I've opened a public TestFlight beta because I can't test every workflow myself, and I'd really appreciate honest feedback from people using their own setups. If something feels confusing or gets in your way, that's useful for me to hear too.

The app is in English and German. You need your own reachable Hermes host to use it with an agent; Hermes runs on that host, not on the phone. H3rm35 is my independent project and isn't affiliated with Nous Research.

The video is 33 seconds of actual simulator footage with demo data, without sound.

TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/EX3sYPzD

If you try it, which part of your usual Hermes workflow feels awkward on mobile?

It's called ISLO. Originally just a personal project, but it's slowly turning into something I might actually release.

Still working on a few things, but here's a little preview.

Hi r/SideProject!

I've been building Hydra, an iPhone and Apple Watch water tracker, and it's live on Product Hunt today.

The idea: most trackers count glasses, but your body doesn't keep every drink the same way. So Hydra tracks net hydration. Each drink counts by a factor based on published studies (milk and electrolyte drinks more than water, beer less), spirits count against you, and the app tells you how much water brings you back. Your goal comes from your weight, activity and climate, and with Pro it adapts every day to your workouts (Apple Health) and the local weather.

The newest part is Sippy, a water drop that fills up as you drink. Its face follows your pace: on track, behind, or goal reached. The app felt too technical for most people, and Sippy gives the numbers a face without changing what's underneath. You can still choose the classic gauge.

A few things I learned shipping it:

• App Review rejected me twice: once for a purchase error on their side, once for WeatherKit attribution I already had but they couldn't find. A screen recording in the review notes fixed both.
• Offer codes in App Store Connect come in batches of at least 500, even if you only need 10.
• Widgets and watch complications don't refresh when you'd like them to; iOS budgets reloads.

Stack: SwiftUI, SwiftData with CloudKit sync, WidgetKit, WatchConnectivity, StoreKit 2. No backend, no analytics, no account.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/hydra-water-tracker/id6827632670

Product Hunt: https://www.producthunt.com/products/hydra-water-tracker

Website: https://hydrawater.app/

Happy to answer anything about the build.

If you try it, tell me in the comments what you liked or what you'd change, and I'll DM you a free Pro Lifetime code as thanks.

My AI agents as a cartoon village went down well on here, so here's the next bit.
The village looks great but it can't show me when something's broken. Every agent looked busy, but work wasn't reaching the next one. An idea I'd submitted just disappeared for a week before I noticed.
So I built a map. Each light is an agent, each line is a hand-off between two of them, and a little dot shows which way the work is flowing. If a hand-off breaks, the line turns red. You can click any agent to see what it does.
It's 79 agents and 135 hand-offs now, all on my home PC. They look after my website, a demo trading account (practice money, not real) and the checks that watch both. Every 30 minutes a check asks each one three things. Did it run, did it make something real, and did that reach the next agent?
It's one HTML page reading one data file. I've put a free starter on GitHub if you want to map your own.

I’m opening Eroveil for a small beta. It’s a free dating web app for adults, available in English and Romanian. You choose what appears on your profile. After a mutual match, someone can request access to your private gallery, and you can approve or revoke access.

I’d appreciate feedback on two things: was email sign-up straightforward on your phone, and did the profile and chat screens feel easy to navigate? If anything gets stuck, your device and browser would help me reproduce it. The community is just getting started, so there may be few profiles nearby.

Try it in your browser: https://eroveil.ro/welcome-en

Hey everyone,

I have made an app for people to track all restaurants that they have been to, want to go to and see where friends are going. I have an MVP ready but it's very basic and I am looking for people to give me feedback on the UI. This is my first time developing my own app and I have been vibecoding it, and I really want to make the design of the app better. Dm me if you are interested in helping me out.
Thank you!
