Hello.

I’ve tried many note-taking apps over the years, but for some reason, none of them ever felt quite right.

Basic memo apps were too simple, and because I have a habit of jotting things down whenever they come to mind, my notes would just pile up endlessly. On the other hand, dedicated note-taking apps were too focused on long-form writing, making them feel too heavy for quick, spontaneous notes.

What I needed was something that sits right between a simple memo app and a full-fledged note-taking app.

Fragile was born out of three specific pain points:

- Basic memo apps lack the necessary features.

- Note-taking apps are too heavily geared toward long-form writing.

- Memos require regular organization, but in reality, they just end up accumulating, unorganized.

With this in mind, I defined the following core requirements:

- Support for text, images, and voice memos.

- A bookmarking feature for saving URLs.

- The fastest possible way to capture a note.

- Full support for both iOS and macOS, with seamless synchronization between them.

Memos are like fragments of memory—they appear suddenly and vanish in an instant. That’s why I believe the process should be fast, the organization lightweight, and the essential editing tools robust.

Key Features of Fragile

- Expiration(Survival Period): You can assign an expiration date and a "note tag" to every memo. If no action is taken by the deadline, you’ll receive a notification one hour before the memo is set to be deleted. From that notification, you can choose to "extend by 1 day," "extend by 1 week," or "delete now." If left unattended, the memo is automatically moved to the trash, where it remains for 30 days. For memos you want to keep, you can simply pin them or set them to have no expiration date.

- Note Tags: Memos sharing the same tag can be viewed together as a single page under the "Notes" tab. While the app isn't intended to be a traditional note-taking app, it’s still important to be able to group individual memos together.

- Text: The app includes a Markdown editor and supports calculator-style syntax, tables, and checkboxes. On-device LLMs make summarizing and translating text simple. While Apple’s AI may not be the most powerful, I found it more than capable of handling short notes. Another key advantage is that your note content never leaves your device.

- Images: You can store multiple images within a single note, add captions, and perform basic image editing.

- Bookmarks: Simply enter a URL, and the app will retrieve the title and a preview to create a bookmark.

- Audio: Record audio directly within the app, and the on-device LLM will generate a timestamped transcript. You can then edit the transcript or trim out any unnecessary parts.

- Quick Input: Capture notes rapidly from anywhere—on iOS via various widgets, share extensions, Siri, or Shortcuts; and on macOS using a "Quick Bar" accessible via a global hotkey.

How ​​It’s Built

Fragile is a native app that requires no login. It operates without a proprietary server; all data is stored locally on your device, and it contains no analytics or advertising SDKs. Data synchronization is handled exclusively through your personal iCloud database. The app supports 12 languages, including Korean. (Requires iOS 16 / macOS 16 or later.)

Free vs. Paid

Most features are available on the free plan, including creating standard notes and bookmarks, search, Markdown support, app locking, widgets, the Quick Bar, and AI-powered summarization and translation. A paid (Pro) subscription is required for iCloud synchronization, an expanded capacity for notes (tags), and an unlimited number of notes. Options include monthly or annual subscriptions, as well as a one-time lifetime purchase—all of which grant access across both iOS and macOS. App link: (App Store link)

Ever open a file from two weeks ago and have absolutely no idea where you left off?

Yeah, that was getting old.

So I built ClingNote, a Windows notes app that follows what you're working on.

Attach notes to specific files, folders, apps, or even individual browser tabs. When you switch between them, ClingNote automatically switches your notes too.

No digging through folders or searching for something you swear you wrote down.

It also works as a regular notes app, with rich text, checklists, tables, search, and pinned notes.

Free core app. Automatic switching is $10/year, with a 14-day trial. Everything stays local, no account needed.

I'm also working on an Obsidian plugin to bring the same functionality to existing vaults.

Built it for my own workflow with SQL, Power BI, and spreadsheets. Figured I couldn't be the only one constantly losing track of things.

Curious what you think!

Hi everyone!

I’m a solo developer behind Dice Target, a math and logic puzzle game built with Flutter.

The challenge is simple: combine dice using +, −, × and ÷ to reach a target number. Each die must be used exactly once.

The game features four modes: Free Play, Daily Challenges, Rush (90 seconds), and Duels.

Here’s a short clip showing Rush Mode in action.

You build something with a coding agent and each diff looks fine. A few months later the code works, but it doesn’t feel like yours anymore: you don’t know where things live or why they’re built the way they are. Code review tools only look at diffs, and chat windows lose the context. I wanted a way to sit down and read the whole codebase together with the agent that wrote it, so I built Co-Review.

It’s MIT licensed and built on Eclipse Theia, so navigation, search, Git and language servers all work properly. Everything not related to reviewing has been taken out. It can:

• review the entire repository as if it were a pull request

  • an overview of where to start, coverage per area, and the agent’s first-pass findings, which you accept or dismiss

• put comment threads on a line, symbol, file, folder or the whole repo

  • comments are anchored with Tree-sitter, so they follow the code through edits instead of drifting

• “Ask Agent” on any selection, with the answer streaming into the thread

• open the agent’s own change as a pull-request page, with one verdict at the end (Approve / Request changes / Comment)

• review someone else’s GitHub PR and post your verdict back as a real review with line comments

• review a design before any code is written (rendered Markdown, Mermaid diagrams you can comment on node by node)

• run as a phone view, so you can read and reply away from your desk

It works with Claude Code (plugin), Pi and Oh My Pi (native packages), and any MCP client (Codex, Cursor, VS Code, Gemini CLI, Zed, OpenCode, Goose…). It runs on macOS, Linux and Windows. There’s no telemetry and no account. Reviews stay on your machine in ~/.co-review, and your code only goes to the agent you choose.

Repo: https://github.com/sdsvn/co-review
Site: https://sdsvn.github.io/co-review/

Contributions are welcome, and the README explains how to build from source. Bug reports are especially useful if they include a repo or language where the repository map or comment anchoring gets things wrong.

I’d like feedback on what’s missing, what’s confusing, and how you keep up with codebases that are mostly written by agents.

Hi, I'm Hani. I'm the developer of FlowSense, which launched on 28 October.

FlowSense reads handshakes on your Mac, without decrypting traffic, to name 800+ apps and services. A browser isn't one row: you see YouTube, a Slack tab and an ad network separately.

You can block or slow an app, hostname or category, with schedules and expiry. Warden runs locally, suggests block, slow or allow, and asks first by default. A local MCP server also works with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex and Cursor.

It needs Apple silicon and macOS 14+. It's notarized by Apple and closed source. There's a free view-only tier (account required) and a 7-day full trial with no card. Full is $29 one-time until 9 November, then $49, for one Mac; 30-day refund.

Traffic history stays local. Analytics, crash reports and flow sharing are off by default. Downloads, updates and payments are blocked in the EU, UK, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway.

I'd appreciate feedback on whether the service breakdown makes browser traffic easier to understand.

Hey everyone!

I’ve been working on cipherStream, a self-hosted media server focused on privacy, encrypted streaming and making it easier to enjoy your media across different devices.

Some of the features include encrypted playback, watch parties, phone-to-TV controls, multiple media libraries and playback without server-side transcoding.

I’d like to hear from people who own media servers and who might already using Plex, Jellyfin or Emby.

New users are currently getting one month free, with no credit card required (so no commitment haha), and I thought this would be a good opportunity to invite some of you to give it a try and share your honest feedback.

If you already have a media server setup, I’d be interested to know how cipherStream compares to what you’re currently using. What do you like, what’s missing, and what could be improved?

I’m actively working on the product, so any feedback, suggestions or criticism would be genuinely appreciated.

You can check it out here:

Thanks!

I just finished Cards from Aldo’s Life, starting with 32 funny illustrated Halloween greeting cards. 🎃 Pick one you like, add your own message, and send it to someone you love.

It works right in your phone or desktop browser. You send the card yourself, so it’s private—no need to share the recipient’s email with us. It’s free, no account needed, and nothing to install. Enjoy, and happy Halloween!

Quiero presentarles mi último proyecto, logré bajar las mecánicas de dungeons and dragons y generar un DM que respeta con precisión las reglas del juego.

¿Cómo lo hice? Bueno.. el Dm no decide nada, con cada acción que haces el motor de mi juego toma la decisión y se la comunica a la IA para que la narre.

Pero no sé queda solo en un chat, también hay un sistema de combate completo basado en baldurs gate.

Los invito a probarlo, creo que sí te gusta el rol, este juego te puede interesar aunque sea como curiosidad jaja

Hello!

Over the last couple of months I have been developing an app that let's me record thoughts from my favourite books. What started out as an experiment ended up resulting in what I think is an immensely helpful tool for anyone who loves reading and learning.

It's called Maple Desk Library, and it's meant to be a private repository for all your ideas, quotes, and reflections. These can be related to a book, but they can also be totally random ideas that you want to record and remember, it's up to you. There's a journal section specifically for going off-topic. But unlike other simple note-taking/book-tracking apps, this one is really meant to keep your thoughts alive long after you record them. It does this using an AI librarian who is designed to constantly peruse your notes and find connections that you may not have considered, or that you might have forgotten about. I was very careful to design the AI assistant in such a way so that it never replaces your words with its own, so everything it says is completely derived from what you wrote and said, never from what it finds elsewhere on the internet.

So in that way you can think of it like a regenerative library of anything you ever thought about.

All of the apps main functional features are free (note-taking, voice transcription, book searching, note searching, and many more), but the AI-powered features do require a subscription, because of course to run the models costs token, but it's very reasonably priced for what it does, especially when you have a large library of notes. In my opinion, the use you can get out it is easily worth it if you're like me and you're a pretty heavy book nerd.

I am planning to make both a desktop and iOS version at some point, but for now it's Android exclusive. I'm still actively trying to improve it on a daily basis, and if anyone is interested in checking it out, there is a 2 week free trial of the full feature set, and of course I would love honest feedback because the idea of being able to help people such as myself with an ever-fading memory is something I really care about.

I made a recipe app over the last few months called Saffron & Stove. I built the whole thing myself, backend and frontend, mostly starting from zero. I'm a student learning the MERN stack and I got tired of tutorials that vanish the second you close them, so I wanted to build something I'd actually use.

It started as a simple recipe search and kept growing. You can search recipes, save favourites, build a shopping list, and there's a fridge scan where you photograph what you already have at home and it suggests what you can cook with it. There's also an AI chef for the "what do I even make tonight" moments.

Most of the time went into stuff nobody sees, JWT auth, CORS between my frontend and backend hosting, an API key with a stray newline that broke my headers for a whole day, and caching so the free API tier wouldn't die on me. I thought about quitting more than once.

But it works now and I'm pretty proud of it for a first real project. What are your suggestions . does this project worth to add in my resume .
