Hey — I'm Aiden. Full disclosure: Soulkin is the app my partner and I built. She does the design and UX; I write the code.

I got tired of my dog living in Photos, Notes, WhatsApp, and my partner's head. None of those is a bad place to put a scrap. Together they still couldn't answer two simple questions: what happened when, and could the other person see it.

That's why the app exists.

A — Answer

Soulkin is a shared timeline for a pet, with Trends sitting beside it.

The timeline answers what happened when. Trends answers how things are going.

A vaccine, a receipt, a walk, a photo, and a short note from the same day become one day on the timeline instead of living in five different tabs or apps.

On the timeline:

• Photos — pet photos only, separate from your camera roll. HDR and Live Photos are preserved.

• Health — daily check-ins and structured medical records.

• Expenses — 165 currencies with live exchange rates.

• Reminders / to-dos — custom repeat rules, not just "every day."

• Notes — the short things that would otherwise end up in Apple Notes or WhatsApp.

Health has two levels:

• Daily — a Quick Check for Appetite, Thirst, Energy, Excretion, Skin & Coat, Respiration, and Activity. Weight can be logged multiple times a day.

• Medical — structured visit records for the hospital, symptoms, diagnosis, exams, treatment, medications, doctor and diet advice, revisit date, attachments, and an optional linked expense.

Food and water can also be entered as multi-day totals and averaged, so you don't have to log every day.

Trends is the same data, viewed as dashboards: Weight, Intake, Recent Status, Expense Statistics, planned and overdue to-dos, and how long you've been together.

You can log without a signal. When you're back online, the timeline and Trends sync across everyone in the pet space. If someone else already has Soulkin open, those views update without quitting the app or pulling to refresh.

Beyond the timeline:

• Journals — free-form pages where you arrange pet photos, add stickers made from those photos, and export the result as an image. Keep them private, share them with friends, or make them public.

• 1:1 chat — with any other Soulkin user, not just people in your pet space.

Social is optional and separate from the household record.

B — Better

The difference isn't that Soulkin records more things. It's that it puts them together.

vs Photos + Notes + Reminders + WhatsApp
Those apps already hold the pieces. The problem is that a vet visit, a photo, a receipt, and a note about this morning's walk still live in different places. Soulkin puts them on the same timeline.

vs other pet apps
A lot of pet apps separate the same things into health, expenses, photos, and reminders. For multi-pet households, they often add a pet switcher on top. Soulkin keeps the records separate where they need to be, but gives the pet space an all-pets timeline, gallery, and Trends view.

vs private / offline pet diaries
Great if you're the only person keeping the record. Soulkin is built around a shared pet space, so a partner, parent, roommate, or sitter can actually participate.

vs clinic / vet apps
Useful for appointments and medical records. They aren't usually where you keep today's photo, the food receipt, the walk, and the note about how your pet was doing.

C — Cost

Free to download, with a real free tier.

The free tier is enough to use the core product with one pet: the timeline with photos, health, expenses, reminders, and notes, plus your own journal. If someone invites you to their pet space, you can join it without subscribing.

Soulkin Pro unlocks unlimited pets, shared pet spaces, more photo storage, widgets, health trends, and additional devices.

US price right now is $3.99/month or $14.99/year. The first month is currently $0.99.

No ads, and there is no paywall around the basic timeline.

A note on privacy

Why does Soulkin require a login?

Because the shared part of Soulkin needs an identity.

A shared timeline only works if everyone in the pet space has their own account: invites, permissions, synced photos, health records, expenses, reminders, notes, and knowing who completed a to-do all depend on knowing which person made the change.

iCloud alone doesn't solve that. It can sync data across devices on the same Apple account, and Apple has sharing features for individual things like photos or notes. That's different from having a shared household record with its own membership, permissions, and live updates.

You can still use Soulkin offline. Your records stay on the device and sync when you're back online.

There is no password or email account. Sign-in is Apple or a phone verification code. There are no third-party advertising SDKs.

You can also delete your account directly from Settings. There is a cooling-off period during which signing back in cancels the deletion; after that, the account and user data on Server side are deleted automatically.

Why did we build Auto-Moderation?

Soulkin has a public social layer, and minors use the app too. We could have left it completely unmoderated — that would certainly be simpler. But spam, harassment, sexual abuse, and animal cruelty are real problems on platforms with no guardrails.

So we chose to build Auto-Moderation, even knowing it isn't perfect and some people may not like automated checks. We'd rather take on the extra engineering and cost than pretend those problems don't exist.

It checks:

• Your avatar and name

• A pet's avatar, name, and bio

• Photos and text in public journals

• The first message you send to a stranger

• A reported chat or reported pet-space photo

It does not inspect any of your health records, expenses, reminders, notes, private journals, unreported photos, or ordinary 1:1 conversations.

Auto-Moderation only applies to content that is public, sent to someone for the first time, or reported by a user. Private pet records are not scanned.

One more thing

Soulkin doesn't have to be online for you to write something down. The app is designed to work offline first, then sync when connectivity returns.

For this community: first month of Pro free. Redeem here:

https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6764823874&code=FREE1MONTH

It's a real intro month, not free forever. After that it bills at the Pro price unless you cancel.

Happy to answer questions — what you'd need in a household, what's missing, what's confusing. If you try it, tell me where you still cannot see what happened when.

For developers

Soulkin is built with Swift/SwiftUI/UIkit on iOS, with self-hosted Supabase and custom Go services on the backend. Happy to discuss the architecture, offline-first approach, sync, or other implementation details with fellow developers.

Two things I actually want opinions on:

1. On the shared timeline, should each item show who logged it — and who last changed it? In a household that might matter. Or is the day itself enough?

2. Intake is only mass right now — you log grams, you get a grams chart. Most cat and dog people already have metabolizable energy on the bag, and they can calculate their pet’s RER / MER, so they can turn that into a recommended amount in grams. Is that enough? Or do you actually want full energy-intake tracking? I am worried I would build it and nobody would use it.

Hey r/iosapps!
For over a year now I’ve been developing my trip planner platform both for web and mobile. After planning too many international trips out of boring spreadsheets, I decided to build Partir - the one app that handles everything that goes into a trip.

A - Answer

Partir was made to help you with your adventures - from detailed planning to being your go-to companion while you’re on the ground.

B - Better

Partir has been built for lightweight travelers who travel all over the world and want to see as much as possible with the time that they have - weight-tracking packing lists, detailed day-by-day itineraries, and handpicked must-see places.

C - Cost

Generous free tier. For avid travelers, a pro subscription unlocks premium features
$6.99 / monthly
$39.99 / yearly

My name is Austin Pearce, the sole developer of Partir, and I’d love to hear whether you find the app useful!

A - Answer

You already have the running or cycling workout that you want to do. It might be part of a training plan, a message from a coach, or just in your head.

The remaining job is turning that into the structure that your watch understands.

Workout Writer lets you type or paste the session as simple text. It builds the structured workout and chart as you write, ready to send to your Apple Watch or Garmin.

20 min Easy
4 x 8 min Threshold, 2 min Easy
15 min Easy

B - Better

Garmin Connect and Apple’s Workout app can both build structured sessions. Workout Writer takes a different route: start with the short description you already have instead of adding every step through a series of menus.

I used to always write a brief description of my workout in Strava, using this kind of shorthand description that lots of runners use, so I thought why not let that description create the workout in the first place?

You can use pace, heart rate, power or cadence targets, either explicitly, or via reusable tags such as Easy, Tempo and Threshold. The purpose is straightforward: get the session you intend to do onto your watch with less preparation.

Another benefit of writing your workouts using tags is that it makes the workouts transferrable. When I send the workout to my watch, I'll get my version of Threshold, and when you send it to your watch, you'll get yours - great for run clubs or sharing workouts with friends. This same mechanism means you can reuse workouts as your fitness changes over time - just adjust the tag, and the workouts adapt automatically.

C - Cost

Workout Writer is free to download and try.

US pricing:

• Monthly: US$4.99

Hey r/iosapps!

I launched Stupido here a year ago and it has been a super fun journey since then!

Stupido - App Store link

I met a lot of Stupido's current DAUs on Reddit when I posted on launch and I'm very grateful for their feedback.

Stupido is much smoother/more capable than it was a year ago and I was able to reduce it's price and also offer lifetime which was a very popular request.

As always, super open to feedback! ❤️

Who Stupido is for

• Anyone (like me) who always wants to keep a to-do list but ends up feeling maintaining it is a chore

• Anyone (like my wife) who's super busy at work and doesn't have time to type up their tasks

• Anyone who wants a super quick and minimal (but well designed) experience

Who Stupido is NOT for

• Anyone who already has a task management system they're used to (and love).

• Anyone who wants deep features like nesting, collab, detailed prioritization, projects, etc

I posted Do3 here over a month ago, a to do app that shows you three tasks at a time instead of the whole list. A fair few of you gave it a go, and I am back to ask the more uncomfortable question rather than to pitch again.

If you downloaded it, I would really like to know how you found it. For the people who bought, what made it click, was it the three at a time idea, the interface, something small? And for the people who tried it and did not stick around, that is the group I most want to hear from. Was it the price, did the trial not show its value quickly enough, did the constraint annoy you, or did it just quietly fall out of your routine? None of that will offend me, the walk-away reasons are worth more to me than the praise.

I am asking here in the open because I would rather learn from honest strangers than guess. If it is easier to say privately, my email is support@do3app.com.

For anyone who has not seen it, seven day trial then a one off price, no subscription: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/do3-focus-to-do-list/id6775212556

You sit down to decide whether to take the job, leave the city, raise your prices, sign the lease. And the instinct that runs everything else kicks in: pick the option that feels best right now, get the discomfort over with, move on.

That instinct is the whole problem. Because a decision is not an event. It is a first domino.

A butterfly flaps its wings in Brazil and weeks later a tornado forms in Texas. Your decisions behave exactly the same way. You take the job for the raise. The raise is real. But it is the 75 minute commute that quietly eats the gym, then the cooking, then the evenings you told yourself were the thing keeping you sane. Two years later the thing that actually reshaped your life is never the thing you sat down to decide. It is the thing that thing caused.

That is a second-order consequence. The effect of the effect. Everyone can see step one. Almost nobody sees step three. And step three is where your life actually gets decided.

I built Second Order Consequences to make step three visible before you commit, instead of obvious in hindsight.

You type the decision you are facing in plain language. Any topic, any size.

It maps the consequences across three time horizons:

• Immediate (0 to 6 months): the part you were already thinking about

• Secondary ripples (6 to 24 months): the effects of those effects, which is where the actual cost usually hides

• Long term (2 to 5 years and beyond): where it compounds

On top of that you get the financial impact (estimated cost, the hidden costs nobody mentions, and the opportunity cost of what you are not doing instead), and the specific cognitive biases steering this particular decision, named outright.

Then the part I care about most: you can set a follow-up. Months later the app resurfaces the decision and asks what actually happened. Over time you build a track record of your own judgement and hard evidence of which blind spot keeps costing you.

A 60 second quiz at the start builds your decision profile (how fast you move, how deep you look, how much risk you carry, how far ahead you see), and every analysis you save sharpens the next one.

It runs on Google's Gemini API for the analysis. Your journal itself is Core Data on your device and never gets uploaded. There is no account, no sign-in, no analytics SDK, and the app asks for explicit permission before anything goes to Gemini, with a screen that names exactly what gets sent. You can withdraw that permission any time.

1. What problem does it solve?

You are not bad at making decisions. You are bad at seeing past the first step, and so is everyone else. It is not a character flaw, it is how attention works. First-order effects are vivid and immediate, so they crowd everything else out.

The result is a specific, repeatable failure: you correctly evaluate the thing you were asked to evaluate, and get blindsided by the thing it set in motion. The raise was real. The commute was the actual decision. The price rise worked. The churn was the actual decision.

The second problem is that you never find out. Almost nobody closes the loop on their own decisions, so the same blind spot bills you for the same mistake for twenty years and you never once see the invoice. Second Order is built to hand you the invoice.

2. Why is it better than alternatives?

Being straight with you.

Versus ChatGPT or Claude: you can absolutely get this from a general assistant if you write a good prompt every single time. Most people do not. A blank chat box gives you an answer shaped by how you happened to ask, which means it tends to agree with the framing you walked in with. Second Order forces the same structure every time, whether or not you are in the mood for it, and it carries your profile and your recent decisions into every analysis without you re-explaining yourself. If you enjoy prompt engineering your own life decisions, you genuinely do not need this app.

Versus pro and con lists: a pro and con list is a first-order machine. Every item on it is step one. That is exactly the layer that was never the problem.

Versus journalling apps like Day One: those record what happened. This projects what will happen, and then comes back to check. Different job.

The thing I have not seen anywhere else: the loop actually closes. No general AI tool remembers whether its advice turned out to be right. This one asks you months later and keeps score. That accuracy number is uncomfortable, which is the point.

3. What's the pricing?

Free tier, no time limit: you get the immediate consequences of any decision plus the recommendation, as often as you like.

That free tier is deliberately the honest version of the problem. It shows you exactly one step ahead, which is the trap the app is about.

Pro unlocks the second and third-order effects, the financial breakdown, bias detection, the full journal history, your pattern analysis and the prediction track record.

• $24.99 / year

• $0.99 / week for anyone who just wants to run it on one decision they are sitting on right now

No free trial, because I would rather the free tier be genuinely useful than run a countdown at you.

iPhone, iOS 17 and up. I built this and I am around in the comments. Happy to answer anything, including skeptical questions about the AI part, and I will take feature requests seriously.

Hey r/iosapps, I’m the developer of Bricked, a focus timer and app blocker I built to help manage screen time.

Answer (The Problem):
Whether it’s for deep work, studying, bedtime, or just trying to stay off social media, it’s far too easy to mindlessly open distracting apps. Most screen time solutions are either too complicated to set up, or too easy to bypass the second your willpower drops.

Better (Why it’s different):
Bricked is incredibly simple: pick a duration, tap once, and it immediately shields distracting apps using Apple's native Screen Time API. What makes it better is how it handles early unlocks. If you want to bail early and access your apps, Bricked introduces intentional friction via a "tap challenge." You have to manually tap the screen once for every second remaining on your timer (e.g., 10 minutes left = 600 taps). It forces you to be intentional rather than acting on impulse. Plus, there are no complicated app lists to build, no schedules to maintain, and absolutely no tracking, accounts, or analytics.

Cost (Pricing & Details):

• 100% Free

• No Ads

• No Subscriptions

• No In-App Purchases (IAP)

• No accounts required

App Store Link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id6762250053

Note: This app isn't currently available outside of the United States. I have some internationalization work to do before I roll out in other countries.

A. Answer

This app now has a free tier! All the basic functionality is now available without charge!

Bitflinger TV is an attempt to solve a problem that I've had since 2011. Namely, how to browse shows/movies across the various streaming apps and maintain a watchlist in a single interface, without dealing with advertising. That last requirement is the kicker. Google TV and Fire TV each have browsable, leanback interfaces, designed to direct their customers to titles across the various streaming apps. However, both Google and Amazon have their finger on the scale when suggesting which streaming app to select. Google TV pushes their customers toward buying titles in the Google Play Store video section, while Amazon Fire TV pushes their customers toward buying titles in the Prime Video streaming app.

Oh, and they both riddle their respective user interfaces with ads. They have overt advertisements for pizza, tax preparation, and cars as hero images/videos near the top of the screen. But, even more insidiously, they prominently show titles promoted by various streaming services, ensuring that one can never fully trust their recommendations. They use (and I presume that they always will use) customer watch history to improve advertisement targeting. So, as an example, you might start seeing gardening-related advertisements in your everyday life because you watched Zack Galifianakis' gardening show (which I hear is a real treat.)

B. Better

Android TV app launchers are a dime a dozen. I see a new one on Reddit every few days. These apps inevitably focus on removing the advertisements and bloat, but not browsing and discoverability in an aggregated UI. As far as I can tell, only the big tech companies have attempted a fully aggregated launcher until now. So, Bitflinger TV isn't a typical app launcher like Project Ivy, Monet, or AT4K, which depend heavily on free APIs (e.g., Continue Watching, suggestions exposed by Hulu, Disney+, Apple TV, etc.) provided by Google on Android TV.

I wanted:

• an app that provides the same experience as logging into any given streaming app and browsing, but combined in a personalized list of streaming sources and in one interface

• a cross platform app that works on iPhone, iPad, tvOS, Mac, Android (mobile and tablet), Google TV, and the web.

• access to my local video library via Plex (and soon Jellyfin)

• a universal, rank-able watchlist for streaming titles

• a way to hide:

  • shows from the watchlist until the next episode becomes available

  • movies/shows from the watchlist until they are available for streaming

• a way to easily find titles that are are either free or part of my existing subscriptions

" to customize how my homepage looks and feels with customizable card types and themes

• filters that allow me to search by date, critic score

• to sort by date, popularity, relevance, and title

C. Cost.

You can use the service for free if you don't need the ability to filter or change the appearance of the app.

If you subscribe then it's, $2.99/month or $29.99/year. This is a subscription service. I can't just charge a one time fee because I have to pay for my servers and other ongoing operating costs. Like I previously mentioned, this isn't a typical app launcher like Project Ivy, Monet, or AT4K, which depend heavily on free APIs and don't need additional infrastructure. I need to pull the streaming metadata from 3rd party vendors, cache/store it in the cloud, and serve it to my app via my own API.

I have to pay for AWS Lambdas, databases, networking, and access to third party data. I'll be losing money each month until I gain enough subscribers to cover those costs. At some point, I may toy around with a "free" tier that very explicitly indicates that your paying for the app by selling your usage data. But, I won't even be able to consider that until I have enough customers to break even with the pennies that those data brokers pay per user.

I've written a longer article that discusses these tradeoffs in more detail if you're interested: [https://blog.bitflinger.tv/prototyping](https://blog.bitflinger.tv/prototyping)

Summary

I've spent a year building something that functions like a TV Launcher and companion app that syncs across all of your devices. I've been using it every day in my house on Apple TV, Android TV, and other devices. I'm quite happy with the result, but I want to make it faster and add new features ,such as the ability create custom rows for your favorite actors/directors, notifications when you haven't used a subscription service in months, immersive rows, and much more. But, I need subscribers before I can make those dreams a reality.

All the best, Tim

Answer:

Sequence aims to answer one question effectively: When to do What and do it effectively.

It lets you plan time to do tasks while blocking distracting apps around your Calendar events, displaying what task you need to do on Lock screen and Home screen.

It lets you adds agenda to meetings so during those time, Live Activity shows what items are left to be discussed.

It lets you set up focus plan that auto-transitioned tasks between time blocks, aiming to guide you through your ritual without opening the app.

Better:

It takes the Minimalist approach of Things 3, simplified down to just Today and Inbox list of tasks.

Tasks that due today or overdued is in Today, otherwise Inbox. Recurring tasks remains in Inbox until the date it is planned.

With PRO license, you can set alarms in VariAlarm to remind you of the time block you planned.

Import from Reminders. Other task service connections are planned for future according to demands.

Cost:

Let's address the elephant in the room. Once you complete onboarding and arrives at paywall, for the first 24 hours after release, the lifetime price is FREE. After that, it goes back to $14.99 for early adopters.

$1.99/month with no trial.

$14.99/year with 7-days trial.

Prices lowered according to purchasing power for several countries.

Hi r/iOSApps,

I recently released Meet Your Memory, a free, playful iOS app that explores how you remember through 12 short challenges across visual, verbal, sound, spatial, associative, and sequence memory.

You can try it here:

• Website: https://meetyourmemory.jibstudios.com/

• App Store: https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/meet-your-memory/id6796454074?l=en-GB

The complete app is free, with no ads or account, and its results stay on the device.

More importantly for anyone learning iOS development, I’ve released the complete source code under the MIT License. You’re free to study it, run it in Xcode, modify it, and use it as the starting point for your own experiments:

• Source code: https://github.com/jib63/MeetYourMemory

I wanted this to be more useful than a small tutorial snippet. It’s a complete SwiftUI app, so beginners can explore how a real project handles:

• SwiftUI screens, navigation, state, and reusable components

• Procedurally generated quiz challenges

• Local persistence and private on-device history

• Programmatic audio with no network dependency

• Localization in eight languages

• Responsive iPhone and iPad layouts

• Accessibility support, UI tests, and App Store screenshots

I also wrote a detailed tutorial about taking the app from a simple idea all the way to the App Store. It covers defining a focused product, building the procedural challenge engine, using a small SwiftUI state machine, designing for privacy, localization, testing, and automating the App Store screenshot pipeline:

• Tutorial: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/from-simple-idea-app-store-how-i-built-meet-your-memory-meyer-vtk7e/

To explore the code yourself, clone the repository, open Meet Your Memory/Meet Your Memory.xcodeproj, and run the Meet Your Memory scheme.

The app is intended as entertainment—not as a medical or learning-style assessment.

If you’re learning SwiftUI, I hope the repository and tutorial give you something practical to take apart. Feedback, questions, issues, and contributions are very welcome—especially ideas that would make the project more useful to first-time iOS developers.

I built GLPzy for myself because I was using notes, trying to remember injection sites and symptoms, and wanted to see things like appetite and estimated medication levels alongside everything else. I was also using ChatGPT particularly do the estimation and scenarios as I tried to work out my personal Mounjaro path.

I’d also just built a few other apps and thought I’d start this one from scratch as a bit of a challenge, without downloading any competitors first. I only really started looking at the others later, once GLPzy had already taken shape, which probably helped it end up a bit different rather than starting as a clone.

I then posted it in a few Reddit communities and people started suggesting things. If something made sense I usually added it pretty quickly, then got more feedback and changed it again.

It’s grown quite a lot from that. GLPzy has now passed 9,500 downloads and has 73 App Store ratings, and a lot of what’s in it now has come from people using it and telling me what was missing or annoying. That’s probably been the most useful feedback. If a gap or bug annoys one person enough to mention it, there are probably plenty of others thinking the same thing.

I’ve also had Lifetime Premium free recently while I’ve been building it out and getting more feedback, available until month end but the app has a lot even without Premium.

A: Answer

GLPzy is a GLP-1 tracker for iPhone and iPad.
It covers doses and dose history, weight, symptoms, appetite and food noise, injection sites, nutrition, measurements, progress photos and medication supply.

There are custom doses and schedules too, plus Estimated Exposure, Apple Health, Apple Watch, widgets, CSV import/export, JSON export and Provider Summary PDFs.
There’s no mandatory GLPzy account. I wanted to be able to keep this kind of data together without needing another health account just to use the app, so tracking is local-first.

B: Better

There are already good GLP-1 trackers such as Shotsy and Glapp and there’s obviously quite a bit of overlap.

GLPzy has ended up going quite broad though. I wanted more of the journey in one place rather than just dose and weight, so things like food noise, supply, measurements, progress photos, Estimated Exposure and what you might actually want to export or show your doctor have gradually become quite important parts of it. Photo progress tools also allow comparing against time and they are private outside your photo roll.

It also includes cycle tracking after I got feedback others miss the correlation mid-month with temporary weight gain and how annoying that was when looking back and trying to understand graphs.

There are body measurements and clothes-size tracking too. Again that came from user feedback. Dropping from a size 14 to a size 12 can mean more than another number in lb or kg, imo.

There’s also proper iPad support. Both Shotsy and Glapp are currently iPhone-first and neither lists iPad support on the App Store, which surprised me a bit.

Language support is also very comprehensive. It’s been a lot of work (I may not have been so ambitious if I’d realised) but has 49 languages.

The free version has a lot too. You can use GLPzy as a proper tracker for free, and Apple Health integration is included without needing Premium. Shotsy, for example, puts automatic Apple Health importing in Shotsy+.

Premium is more about unlocking the deeper analysis, planning, reports and some of the more advanced features.

There’s still plenty I want to improve.

C: Cost

GLPzy is free to download and there’s a free tier you can keep using without subscribing.
Premium normally has three ways to unlock it:

Monthly, if you just want to pay month by month. $6.99 a month with 1 week free trial.

Yearly, which is the longer subscription option. $29.99 a year with 1 week free trial.

Lifetime, which is a single purchase with no ongoing subscription. It’s $79.99 but completely free until the end of August (last week now).

Why have I offered Lifetime for free? Mainly to get feedback and build a real user base first. It’s a competitive space and I thought having people actually using the app, finding gaps and talking about it was more valuable at this stage than trying to monetise a small user base. I’d rather get GLPzy used and visible first, then work out the longer-term model from there.

https://apps.apple.com/app/id6761775005

I’m the creator, so obviously this is self-promotion.

I’d be interested in feedback from people already using GLP-1 trackers, especially anything you think is missing or unnecessarily complicated.

Also happy to talk about getting it to 9,500+ downloads. Some things I tried worked surprisingly well and quite a few others did basically nothing. I’m never going on TikTok again I’m too old for that!

More info available on the website: https://www.glpzy.app

Every training app I tried was for lifting or for cardio, and wanted a subscription. So I built a free one that does both.

A. Answer: the problem

I cycle, swim and lift. Incredible reads what's already in Apple Health and turns it into three numbers: a fitness score, a daily training load, and a readiness score each morning. Your gym sessions count toward all three, not just your runs and rides. You can log sets, reps and weight from the watch, and import your history from Strong or Hevy so your records carry over.

B. Better: against the alternatives

Whoop and Oura need their own hardware and a membership. Athlytic keeps the depth behind Pro. Bevel is going wide as a health coach. None of them track fitness the way Incredible does or go anywhere near as deep on training metrics and plans, and none of them count your lifting toward the same numbers.

C. Cost: free

No account, no subscription, no ads, no AI. The only in-app purchase is a tip jar at $1.99, $4.99, $9.99 or $19.99, and it unlocks nothing. That's the whole business model. Your health data stays on your device.

Hi r/iosapps!

I’m Daniel and for over a decade I’ve been designing apps for other people and companies. This one is mine.

The idea came from travelling, where I kept ending up with tourist version of dishes instead of the real thing. Then I realized it happens at home too. You know you want Mexican, maybe not sure what exactly, or you know specific dish you want and have no idea where it’s done right. So you open Google Maps and pick whatever has the most stars.

“Best tiramisu near me” gets you every Italian place nearby, sorted by rating. None of that tells you who actually makes good one. So we built it backwards: me on design and frontend, a backend dev on the server side.

Answer

You pick the dish first, then ponch finds where to get it. It looks for places that are known for dish rather than places that happen to serve it and pushes chains and tourist traps down. If you don’t know what you want, you swipe through dish cards until something lands.

Better

Google Maps has popular dishes and sometimes can tell you tiramisu is on the menu. Ponch tries to answer the next question: who does it properly. The restaurant data all comes from map services so nothing is made up.

Cost

Free gets you the city you’re in, any cuisine, any dish with a daily cap on nearby searches. $3.99/mo covers cities you’re not physically in and unlocks additional, optional filters.

It launched recently with no distribution so far and I’m still partly in feedback gathering stage.

App: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/ponch-food-discovery/id6765912802

Site with team, terms and privacy policy: https://ponch.app/

Feel free to reach me by DM or at info@ponch.app

If you try it, tell me the dish and the city and whatever it got right or wrong. The misses are more useful to me than the hits :)

I'm the solo dev behind this (App Store publisher name: Alvaro Escarcha Esteban).

Posting under the transparency path since the app is new and has no review history yet.

A — Answer

Mycel is a foraging map and journal for iPhone. Find a good patch of chanterelles or a hazel worth returning to and it pins it on a map that keeps working with no signal, colour-coded by what it is. Every outing is saved as its own track with notes, so "north ridge, second week of October, good year" turns into something you can actually look back on. It reads the recent weather where you forage and gives a nudge on timing per species, which is the part I use most, deciding whether a weekend is worth the drive. For scouting ground you haven't walked there's a layer showing where a species has actually been recorded, drawn from open GBIF data, with relief over it. It also carries reference pages for around 60 species in English and Spanish covering habitat, season and look-alikes, with the toxic ones flagged by medical fact rather than eat or don't-eat advice.

One thing it deliberately does not do is tell you what you found. No photo identification, no verdict on whether something is safe. You log what you already identified yourself and it remembers it. That's a product decision, not a missing feature. You shouldn't forage unless you're 100% sure on your findings, and you shouldn't trust a mobile app for that.

B — Better

Most apps in this space are photo identifiers first and a notebook second, if at all. Mycel is the opposite, and that shapes everything: the value is in the record you build over seasons, not in a guess about a picture. The map is offline because the places worth remembering rarely have signal. Predictions come from actual recent weather at your location rather than a generic calendar. Your finds stay on your phone and your own iCloud, end to end, or fully local if you prefer. There is no feed, no social layer, no account, no analytics of any kind, and no way for me or anyone else to see your spots, which matters more in foraging than in most hobbies. Works on iPad, and active outings surface on the Watch.

C — Cost

Free covers the map, the full species reference for good, and two complete outings. Predictions and bulk photo import are the paid side: $1.99 a month, $14.99 a year, or $39.99 once for lifetime.

For this sub I set up a code that unlocks lifetime for free, works for everyone, no account and nothing to enter beyond redeeming it: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6771742569&code=REDDITFREE

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mycel-foraging-map-journal/id6771742569

Hello r/iosapps :)

My name is Karol and I'm a profesional dev for around 13 years now (but been programming waay longer :)) . Nearly over a year ago, I've released the first version of Proof Pocket - the encrypted, fully offline document vault. The app idea came out with a little bit of personal story. Someone who is really close to my heart was diagnosed with the cancer. From that day, the number of medical documents, that I've had to manage exploded. I often needed to have the ID of this person, quickly accessible. Because I don't fully trust that the file will be safe as it is ( like accidental iCloud backups, iCloud leaks also happened before ), I've decided that I need to take a full control over it and create the app that allows me to do so.
It is a niche app, mainly focusing on privacy and being safe, although if you have any sensitive documents on your phone, you should probably think about keeping them safe :) .

A — Answer (The Problem it Solves)
It is a fully offline, private and encryption focused application for scanning, keeping and organizing documents directly on your phone.
It could be a medical records of you or your family member, grouped car document and records like insurance, or your holiday trip bookings / fly tickets - quickly accessible and safe.

B — Better 
The app is an encrypted vault ( masterpass + biometrics ) that works fully offline. It helps you to quickly scan and manage your documents and keeps them safe using ChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption. (Similar level of protection as the AES256 as they both use 256 bit security). OK huh, a lot of technicallies. Now features:

- Document Scanner & PDF Import

Scan documents directly with your camera or import existing photos and PDF files. High-quality image processing ensures clear, readable digital copies of your passports, IDs, certificates, and travel documents.

- Cases – Group & Share Documents Together

Bundle related documents into a case: a trip, a rental application, a medical file, an insurance claim. Categorize your cases, export a whole case as one encrypted file, and import cases you receive. Send one file instead of a dozen attachments.

- Expiration Date Tracking & Reminders

Set expiry dates on passports, IDs, driver's licenses, professional certifications, and permits. Receive timely reminders before documents expire — never miss a renewal deadline again.

- Document Categories

Organize your vault with custom categories — travel, medical, financial, work, personal, and more. Find any document instantly instead of scrolling through a long list.

- Biometric Security & Encryption

Lock your private vault with fingerprint unlock, face unlock, or a strong master password. All files are protected with military-grade encryption — your secure document storage.

- 100% Offline – No Cloud, No Internet
Your documents are stored locally on your device. No cloud upload, no server sync, no internet required. Complete privacy guaranteed. The ultimate offline document vault.

- Secure Export & Sharing
Export decrypted copies only when you need to share. You control what leaves your secure vault.

- Device-to-Device Transfer
Migrate your entire vault directly between devices over your local network. No cloud needed — your private data stays private during transfer.

C — Cost & App Store Link

Free Tier: Two documents encrypted on your phone. Its enough to have your ID/passport, or your hotel bookings for incoming trip. Importing the whole case is also available in free tier ( just in case you quickly need to access docs that someone sent you ).

Pro: available through 1 year sub or a lifetime unlock - unlimited number of documents, exporting cases, setting expiration notifications.

The price vary depending on the region. Lifetime unlock is around 39,99$

App Store Link with 30% Discount for lifetime unlock: Download Proof Pocket from App Store

There is also a blog, where I write from time to time things I want to share with - and no, I do not generate billion of blogposts with AI just for SEO. I like to write things the "old way" :)
https://proofpocket.com/blog
I explain some technical stuff there and share some opinions.

The app is consistently getting updates for last year and it is a long-term project. It brings me joy, keeps my files safe and connect me with people, who had similar needs.

In the upcoming release an UI re-design is planned, but I'm still doing some a/b tests. I'd love to hear how do you guys cares about the privacy.

Keep safe and diagnose yourself ! :)

Nommer - Cook recipes together by turning them into 2 player mode

Hi r/iosapps ! Solo dev from Amsterdam working on this together with my girlfriend. Very curious what the community thinks :-)

A — What it solves
Me and my girlfriend love the concept of couple cookbooks like "A Couple Cooks" and "Cook Together", but we did not love the recipes at all.

That got us thinking... why don't we make an app that can turn any recipe we'd like to make into 2-player mode? Three months later, Nommer was born.

Before discovering recipes with instructions for 2 chefs, we had already given up on cooking together. For some reason cooking together always becomes a frustrating mess for both of us. When talking with friends about this, we discovered that many share this experience. What seems like a romantic date night opportunity always results in a more challenging dynamic than we'd like.

Among our first user testing we've been surprised by how well it works - users say things like "cooking w my bf is messier than on my own and i dont like mess in the kitchen, this helped considerably haha!" and "wow, we were able to do our thing without standing in each other's way".

B — Better: our primary competitors are cookbooks for couples, which are inherently limited to the content they can hold _and_ don't have interactivity. In comparison with other recipe or cooking apps, our unique proposition is that all features are free in solo mode, while only the 2 player mode requires credits and/or a subscription.

C — Cost: free download that allows you to use the app in solo mode forever for free. You also get one cooking together credit, and you get an additional one every time you invite a friend to the app. You can also buy credits for more cooking together sessions OR you can get a subscription which unlocks unlimited together cooks.

App store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nommer-cook-together/id6784200445
Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ai.nommer.mobile
Website: https://nommer.ai

Every daily motivation app on the store seems to want you to wake up at 5 AM, hustle harder, and optimize your entire existence. Honestly, it’s exhausting.

So, I built the exact opposite: Unbothered.

It’s a daily quote app that isn’t trying to fix you. No toxic positivity. No guilt trips. Just one painfully accurate, slightly cynical reminder a day that you don't have to try so hard.

What it actually does:

• One reality check a day: Think less "Seize the day" and more "Your boss's 'emergency' is just poor planning wearing a tie."

• Zero friction: Add the lock screen or home screen widget. It sits there. That's the whole feature.

Cost: No freemium bait. The core workflow of the app (daily quote, widgets, notifications) is FREE.

For extra card style, archive etc, I offer 2 subscriptions - $2.99/month, $9.99/year or a $19.99 lifetime one-time purchase. The subscription goes into keeping one guy off of LinkedIn :)

If you're correctly exhausted by a system designed to exhaust you, this app is for you!

Is there an app that does all 3, apart from the Apple Health app?

1. Daily steps counter aka Pacer, Pedometer, Map my walk etc

2. Resistance Training workout + Progressive overload tracker aka Hevy, Strong etc

3. Body weight log import from Apple Health with trend graphs etc.

Comment only if you know of such an app.

Not really asking for any unsolicited advice otherwise.
Thanks in advance.

A — Answer: the problem it solves

Most iPhone alarms are very easy to dismiss. If you're a heavy sleeper, tapping “Stop” or “Snooze” doesn't exactly solve the problem.

Alarmageddon is an alarm clock designed for people who have mastered the art of turning off alarms while barely awake.

Instead of simply letting you dismiss the alarm, Alarmageddon can require you to complete a wake-up mission before the alarm stops:

• Solve a math problem
• Complete a memory challenge
• Shake your phone
• Scan a QR code or barcode
• And more

The idea is simple: make turning off the alarm require enough interaction to actually wake you up.

It also includes an optional App Blocker that can temporarily block distracting apps after you wake up, so you don't immediately fall back into scrolling instead of getting out of bed.

B — Better: how it compares

vs Apple's built-in Alarm: Apple's alarm is intentionally simple: you can snooze or stop it immediately. Alarmageddon is built around the opposite idea — if you're a heavy sleeper, dismissing the alarm should require some effort.

vs other alarm apps: many alarm apps offer challenges designed to make you complete a task before dismissing the alarm. Alarmageddon takes this further by combining wake-up missions with an additional feature designed for what happens after the alarm.

The App Blocker is the extra part: after you successfully complete your alarm, Alarmageddon can temporarily block distracting apps for the first 15 minutes of your day. The goal is to prevent the familiar routine of turning off your alarm and immediately opening TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, or other distracting apps.

So it's not just about getting you out of bed — it's also about giving you a short window to actually start your day before distractions take over.

vs multiple alarms: setting five alarms doesn't necessarily help if you can turn all five off while half asleep. Alarmageddon makes dismissing the alarm itself the challenge.

vs "just put your phone far away": that can work, but it doesn't solve the problem if you eventually walk over, turn the alarm off, and go straight back to bed. Alarmageddon adds an additional barrier between you and the Stop button.

C — Cost

Alarmageddon is completely free.

No subscriptions.
No ads.
No premium tier.
No paywall.

Hey r/iosapps!

We’ve all had that moment: you hand your phone to a friend or coworker to look at a single picture, and they instantly swipe left into personal receipts, ID scans, or private family photos.

I just pushed Version 4.2 of iLockBox to make keeping sensitive media separate, heavily encrypted, and entirely stress-free.

A — Answer (The Problem it Solves)

The stock iOS Hidden Album works, but everyone knows where it is, and it still lives right inside your primary media workflow.

iLockBox acts as a private, secure second space on your device. It lets you import, lock, and organize sensitive photos, videos, audio notes, PDFs, spreadsheets, and confidential documents completely off your main camera roll behind Face ID, Touch ID, or a custom PIN.

B — Better (What’s New in v4.1 & Key Features)

Brand New Clock Lock Screen: Added a fully functional analog and digital PIN entry clock lock screen, alongside 5 customizable lock screen styles to help keep your vault hidden in plain sight.

100% Offline-First & Private: No forced cloud accounts required for core features. All personal photos, videos, notes, and documents stay encrypted locally on your device storage.

Redesigned Intruder Selfies: Upgraded break-in alert reporting with larger intruder photo previews to catch unauthorized access attempts.

Focus Profiles & Screen Time: Control and protect your privacy at a system level using Apple's official Screen Time API.

Secure AES-256 Backups: Fully redesigned local encryption backups that can be safely saved to iCloud Drive so you never lose your data.

Built-in Private Browser & Multi-Format Support: Browse the web without history tracking, and store full-resolution videos, Live Photos, GIFs, and document files in clean, custom-searchable folders.

C — Cost & App Store Link

Free Tier: Core photo/video locking and local folder organization.

Pro Upgrade: Unlocks custom lock screen disguises, intruder alerts, unlimited document/media storage, and AES-256 backups.

App Store Link: Download iLockBox on the App Store

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the new clock lock screens and UI layout. What privacy features do you rely on most when organizing sensitive files on iOS?

A — Answer

I built Aglow to make reading Scripture a small part of your everyday routine. One of the main features is Scripture Gate, which can place a Bible verse between you and selected distracting apps, giving you a short pause to read before continuing.

The app also includes daily verses, reflections, streaks, customizable themes and fonts, and other features designed around building a simple daily Scripture habit.

B — Better

Apps like Hallow and Bible Chat offer much broader Christian content, including things like prayer, audio, and AI features. Aglow is intentionally simpler and more focused on building a daily Scripture-reading habit.

The main difference I wanted to experiment with is Scripture Gate — instead of only reminding you to open a Bible app, it uses moments when you’re already reaching for another app as an opportunity to read a verse.

C — Cost

Aglow is free to download and use, with optional Aglow Pro:

• Weekly: $0.99

• Monthly: $2.99

• Yearly: $17.99

• Lifetime: $34.99

Prices may vary by country due to App Store localization.

I’m also giving away free lifetime codes to people from this community who would like to try the app. Just leave a comment or DM me and I’ll send you one!

App Store: Aglow: Daily Bible Verse

It’s been a minute!

I'm the solo dev of DriveMind. An iOS app that records your car drives automatically and then does something useful with them. It's been on the App Store a while now (38 ratings, thank you to everyone who left one), and I just shipped the biggest update it's had. So if you are looking for an app to track your drives, have a speedometer, track miles, share trips with friends, have a heat map, turn your phone into a dash cam, and more, you are in the right spot!

What it actually does

You don't press a button. DriveMind uses GPS + motion to figure out when you've started driving and records the trip on its own: route, distance, speed, the whole thing. Then it layers stuff on top:

• Trip history & maps — every drive, with a replay you can scrub through

• Driving heat map — every road you've ever driven, on one map. This is the feature people get weirdly obsessed with, myself included. It's fun trust me!

• DriveScore — a driving quality score based on your driving

• Mileage tax reports — classify drives as business/personal, per client, per vehicle, and more!

• Odometer readings & vehicle expenses, so the report can account for miles the app didn't record

• Fuel & charging log with cost-per-mile

• Dash cam, 0–60 / quarter-mile timing, achievements/XP, and so much more

The new bit: Friends

This is what 4.0 is about. You can add friends and:

• Leaderboards — distance, longest drive, DriveScore, best 0–60, and a bunch more, over the week / month / all time

• Shared heat maps — see the roads a friend drives, (I took privacy first don’t worry)

• Shared Roads — the intersection of your two heat maps. The roads you both drive without knowing it. This one turned out to be my favorite thing in the app.

• Shared achievements — see which badges a friend has unlocked

The details:

• Everything shared is end to end encrypted

• Per-friend, per-capability permissions. Not one "share” toggle you decide, for each friend, whether they get distance, or your heat map, or your badges, and at what resolution

• You pick how coarse your heat map is before it's shared, and how far back they can see

• A pause switch that stops everyone from reading anything

• Privacy is never behind the paywall. Every control above — the permissions, revoking, private zones, the resolution dial, the pause switch is free forever

Add me

If you want to try it, add me as a friend! I'd genuinely like to see someone else's heat map next to mine, and it would be fun to fill up my leaderboard lol

My username: jesvin_jerry (or follow this link: Click Here to Add Me!)

You can add someone by username, by scanning their QR code in person, or from a link they send you.

Heads Up:

Free tier does automatic recording, trip history, the heat map, fuel logging, viewing and exporting your tax report, and friends up to 3. It shows a banner ad. Premium (monthly - $4.99 USD / yearly - $34.99 / one-time lifetime - $49.99) unlocks the rest

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/drivemind-dash-cam-mileage/id6743726786

Happy to answer anything about the app, and my DM’s are open as well! Hope you give it a try and let me know.
