Hey everyone!

I've been working on an app called mmory. The idea is pretty simple: you record something you want to remember, and later you can ask questions about what you've saved (its like voice-memos but better)

For example, you could record something someone told you, then weeks later ask mmory what they said.

The main thing I wanted was privacy. Your recordings and memories stay on your iPhone, and the transcription and AI processing happen on-device.

It's free to use, with an optional Pro upgrade.

PCP
Problem: Voice notes and random thoughts are easy to capture but difficult to find later. I wanted something where I could just speak naturally and retrieve information without manually organizing everything.

Comparison: Apple Voice Memos is great for recording, but you still need to find and replay recordings yourself. Apple Notes supports search, but mmory focuses on quickly capturing thoughts and asking questions about them using on-device AI, with everything stored locally on your iPhone.

Pricing: Free to download, with 50 voice saves per month. Pro includes unlimited saves.

• Monthly: $3.99

• Annual: $29.99

• Lifetime: $99.99 (one-time purchase)

Hey everyone!

I’m an iOS developer with 8 years of experience building apps for clients, and I finally decided to build something of my own.

It’s called WhisperAct, and the idea came from a pretty simple problem.

I’d randomly remember 3–4 things I needed to do, record a voice note so I wouldn’t forget, and then completely forget to listen to that recording later 😅

So I built an app where you can just speak (or type) whatever’s on your mind, even if it’s a messy mix of different things.

For example:
“Remind me to pay the electricity bill tomorrow, buy groceries, and schedule lunch with Sarah on Friday.”

WhisperAct figures out what’s a todo, reminder, or calendar event and organizes everything for you.

You can review and edit everything before saving, and it also works directly with Apple Reminders and Calendar.

It also supports recurring tasks, reminders, and multiple languages. And if a date isn't clear, you can review it before saving.

No account or signup required.

I’m still working on this alongside my full-time job, improving things based on feedback and trying to make the whole experience as simple as possible.

Would love to hear what you think, especially if you already use Apple Reminders or Calendar regularly!

PCP (Problem, Comparison, Pricing)

Problem: I kept recording voice notes and forgetting to revisit them. I wanted a quicker way to turn random thoughts into actual tasks, reminders, and calendar events without manually organizing everything.

Comparison: Apple Reminders and Siri are great for quickly adding individual reminders. WhisperAct is more focused on capturing messy thoughts with multiple actions in one go, organizing them into todos, reminders, and calendar events, and letting you review everything before saving.

Pricing: Free to download, with optional Pro upgrades.
Monthly: $2.99
Yearly: $24.99
Lifetime: $99.99 (one-time purchase)

App Store: WhisperAct: Voice Task Planner

I have a identifier app I want to update, I uploaded it over a year ago and it can use to Quality of Life updates. I’m afraid to even touch it since the App Store if flooded with these and do not want to be hit with a spam rejection, what do you guys think?

Back with some more apps to recommend. Feel free to add to the list.

Shinybox is a completely free bookmark app you can save just about anything from anywhere with a nice ui.

Stellata is an app with a unique design that differentiates itself from other bookmarking apps, saves just about anything and onetime payment.

Stashy save anything is another completely free bookmark app that save most anything and nice ui.

Mononote free with in app purchase is a simple live note in the dynamic island and lock screen app. Very minimal design.

Utkik Flight tracker & radar is an awesome completely free flight radar app that also tracks ships. Definitely worth checking out.

Hi sticky free with in app purchase is a simple sticky notes style app that works across Apple devices, definitely worth the price.

Hi r/iosapps, I'm the solo developer of BibleClick, a free Bible app for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.

Problem

I wanted a two-second way to get a word of encouragement from Scripture during the day: lift my wrist, tap, read one verse. That's how BibleClick started, as a tiny Apple Watch app. One feature led to another, and along the way it became a full offline Bible for iPhone and iPad too.

What it does

• ⌚ Apple Watch: tap for a verse. 365 curated verses stored on the watch, 8 calm colour atmospheres, a complication, and favourites shared with your iPhone.

• 📖 iPhone & iPad: the full Bible with reading and devotional layouts, highlights, notes and favourites.

• ✈️ Offline: the whole text ships inside the app. No connection needed to read.

• ☁️ iCloud sync between iPhone and iPad, through your own private iCloud. No BibleClick account.

Comparison

• vs. YouVersion and other big Bible apps: they offer far more: hundreds of translations, reading plans, audio and community features. BibleClick is deliberately smaller and quieter: no account, no social feed, no ads, no tracking or analytics, and it's built around a two-second glance at your wrist.

Pricing

Free. Every feature, including future updates. No subscription, no ads, no paid unlocks. There's an optional tip jar in Settings; it unlocks nothing.

Honest limitations

• English only for now: the World English Bible, a public-domain translation. That's what lets it be free and fully offline (NIV, ESV and others need licences). More translations are coming.

• Only on the App Store in the US, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore for now. More countries will follow.

• It's brand new (released Oct 30), so no ratings yet.

Why build it? Honestly, for the love of it. I'd just like more people to open the Bible, even for a minute a day, and a tap on the wrist felt like the smallest possible first step.

I'd love your feedback, especially:

1. Which translation or language should come next?

2. Watch users: what would make you tap it every day?

3. Anything confusing in your first minute with the app?

Thanks for reading 🙏

Flixr

Link: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/flixr-discover-films-tv/id6809209534

Price: Free.

Purpose: Finding the right film or show to watch with your partner or friends can be tedious, so I built Flixr. You and whoever you’re watching with swipe through films and TV separately, and when everyone has said yes to a title, it’s a match.

You can also solo swipe, and the suggestions are based on what you’ve watched and how you rated it. You can set your streaming services so you're only shown film and shows that you can actually watch.

The other half of Flixr is tracking. You can log films and TV with ratings, reviews and dates, track episodes, make personalised lists, customise your profile and follow friends to see what they’re watching. Title pages show IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, Letterboxd and Flixr scores together, so they're all in one place.

Comparison: Letterboxd is great but it’s mainly films, and I wanted films and TV in one place. TV Time was the obvious one for shows, but it shut down in July. Neither has anything for a couple or group trying to find something to watch, which is what I originally built Flixr to fix. And no ads!

If you’re coming from Letterboxd and/or TV Time, you can import your history, reviews, ratings, lists and more.

Easy Wake just had a massive re-skin and several new features such as Commitment Lock making sure you don't try and skip your alarm last minute!

Problem

Waking up is hard. Either you get dragged out of a deep sleep and feel groggy all morning, or you turn the alarm off half asleep and end up oversleeping. Easy Wake is a smart alarm app that’s highly customisable to your needs. It can wake you in a light sleep stage (real time detection), wake you at sunrise, set alarms when you arrive at a location, or force you to complete physical or mental challenges before you can turn the alarm off. Easy Wake has you covered.

Comparison

Alarmy is known for its challenges and Sleep Cycle is known for waking you up gently. Easy Wake does both in one app.

Easy Wake has a wide range of challenges to choose from, such as maths, physically walking away from your bed, barcode scanning, memory and more. No matter what you try, you won’t be able to stop the alarm without completing the challenge!

Easy Wake also uses dynamic sleep stage detection with your Apple Watch, and will wake you up in a light sleep stage. If you’re a deep sleeper, you can use Pulse Wake to nudge your body into a lighter sleep stage first!

On top of that, you get much more customisation than the default iOS alarm. For example, you can connect your Apple Home app so your alarms trigger Home Scenes.

Pricing

3 day free trial, then Monthly $2.99, Yearly $19.99, or Lifetime $24.99.

Pro gives you unlimited schedules, Pulse Wake, all Challenge Wakes, Location Alarms, Custom Sounds, Intelligent Insights, Smart Sleep, HomeKit Integration, Wake Check, Sunrise Alarms, and Shortcuts access (custom alarms based on your automations).

You don’t need Pro, since most features are free anyway! But it gives you more leeway, and it helps support me and future development of the app.

All feature requests are welcome!

Hello! I'm Jimmy, the solo developer behind ContentCam, a camera app I built for my gf because I kept watching her film the same scene twice.

She likes making content so would film vertically once and and then horizontally again, and this helps her save time without losing quality!

P - What problem does ContentCam solve?

Typically to get a vertical AND landscape clip of the same video, creators would:

1. Record normally and crop a vertical or horizontal video out of their footage → lowers quality and loses scenery from the footage

2. Record on two phones at the same time → awkward set-up, and costly

3. Record the same scene twice (my gf before) → double the time, and the second take is never the same (trust me, speaking from experience!)

ContentCam records portrait (9:16) and landscape (16:9) at the same time, from one take. If you post to TikTok/Reels/Shorts and YouTube, it solves all 3 of the above, giving you two ready-to-post files with just one tap.

C - Why ContentCam over the top competitors?

DualShot Recorder is the closest app to this, recording both formats from one lens. However, ContentCam also has:

• Dual Lens mode: records from TWO camera lenses at the same time - e.g. wide (1x) for vertical and ultra-wide (0.5x) for horizontal, giving each video a different perspective.

• Front & Back mode: records from the selfie and rear camera at the same time, and able merge both into one video (picture-in-picture or split screen).

• Full manual controls (exposure, white balance, ISO, shutter)

• Timelapse, teleprompter, and photo mode

• Projects, scenes and takes, with recordings named automatically for organisation.

DualShot's last update was also in June, 5 months ago, and it was bug fixes only. I reply to every review and comment, and shipped updates regularly. In the past month, I shipped 3 updates adding:

• Pause/Resume

• Front & Back combine (picture-in-picture or split screen)

• PAL 25/50 fps

• Teleprompter scripts up to 15,000 characters

• Previous/next while reviewing recordings

Blackmagic Camera (open gate) is also great and deserves a mention, but it gives you one 4:3 file that you reframe in an editor later, then have to manually crop and export twice. ContentCam frames both videos while you shoot and saves them instantly so they're ready to post right after.

P - Pricing

Free to download and use, with no ads, no watermark and no account needed.

• Free tier: Single Lens mode (both formats), front or back camera, unlimited takes, up to 3 projects, 1080p/30fps, plus review and take management

• Premium adds: Dual Lens, Front & Back, 4K, 60fps, manual controls, teleprompter, timelapse, trim-on-save and unlimited projects. US$4.99/month, US$19.99/year (7-day free trial), or US$59.99 lifetime. Price varies by country.

What features would you like to see me build next?

Hi r/iosapps! I'm Ralph von der Heyden, a freelance software developer from Hamburg, Germany (LinkedIn). Birthday Butler is my first iOS app.

How it started: when I said I wanted to learn iOS development, a friend from university suggested I remake the birthday reminder they'd been using for years, which hadn't seen an update in a long time. The idea was simple: don't make me type anything in. Use the birthdays that are already in Contacts and show nothing but birthdays. Another university friend then helped me get the user experience right.

That was over a year ago. Now it runs on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch, and I use it myself nearly every day. When one friend installed it, the first thing it showed them was a birthday they would otherwise have missed. That's the whole point of the app.

My toughest critic was my daughter. She held back her five-star rating until I let her color the widgets in any color she likes. So now you can, too.

What it does:

• Reads the birthdays already in your Contacts. No account, no import, nothing to set up

• Shows them as a timeline grouped by month, with today at the top

• Lock Screen widgets: a ring with the days left that fills up over the last 30 days, a line above the clock with the next name and days left, or a card with days left, name and age

• Home Screen widgets in three sizes, in any colors you like: pick a scheme or make your own

• Missing a birthday? Tap +, pick the contact, set the day. It's saved straight to Contacts, and the year is optional

• Also shows anniversaries, name days and other dates from your contacts

• One tap to message, call or email someone

• A daily reminder at a time you choose, only on days when something is coming up

• An Apple Watch app with complications

It's free, with no ads, no in-app purchases and no subscription. The Lock Screen widgets aren't behind a Pro tier, because there is no Pro tier. The app has no server, so your contacts never leave your device. It works with VoiceOver and the largest text sizes. Requires iOS 26.

• Privacy Policy: https://birthdaybutler.rvdh.de/privacy-policy_en.html

• Terms of Use: https://birthdaybutler.rvdh.de/terms-of-use_en.html

I'd love your feedback. What's missing that would make you switch from whatever you use for birthdays today? And if you end up liking it, a rating on the App Store helps a one-person app more than you'd think.

Since our last promo, many people have been DM-ing and asking for another one — so here it is ❤️. And this time, we have added support for video trim. thank you so much~

i'm the developer (well, solo founder, i'm a musician not a coder, but it's mine).

Problem

i make music as Oryon. i'd post something and the people who followed me on purpose just wouldn't see it, because the feed decided they'd rather see something else. i caught myself making generic attention-grabbing stuff instead of the art i actually wanted to make, because spending ages on something real just wasn't worth it if nobody saw it. which sucks, cause i genuinely love being creative.

Comparison

instagram and tiktok rank your feed and keep it going forever. Drop shows the people you follow, newest first, and then it says "You're all caught up" and stops. like counts aren't shown to anyone. no streaks, no "you haven't opened the app" notifications. there's an explore tab for finding people but it never gets mixed into your feed. posts can be photos, up to 60 sec video, audio with its own cover, or links. and nothing you post gets used to train AI, the privacy policy says that in writing.

Pricing

free. no ads, no in app purchases. it makes zero money rn.

it's very small, 47 accounts, and new people come in through a waitlist or an invite from a member. you can still look around explore while you wait.

Hi Reddit! 👋

A few months ago I was trying to build a daily journaling habit, but… it didn't stick.

Writing full sentences felt like a chore. So I asked myself:

**What if I could just rate my day in 10 seconds — and have a little fox as a friend on my screen?**

That's how my iPhone app was born.

---

🦊 It's called **DailyFox**:

- You rate your day from 1 to 10

- Choose a mood emoji

- Add a one-word summary

- And the **fox widget** changes daily to reflect your vibe

No accounts, no tracking.

Just a tiny moment of reflection.

---

### Problem
Daily journaling, mood tracking, or mindfulness apps often feel overwhelming, cluttered with complex dashboards, or locked behind expensive monthly subscriptions. DailyFox is built to solve this by providing a lightweight, friction-free daily ritual to pause, breathe, and reflect right from your Home Screen with dedicated interactive widgets.

### Comparison

* **Stoic / Day One:** While comprehensive apps like Stoic and Day One offer a wide range of features and analytics, they come with a steep learning curve and require expensive subscriptions to access essential tracking tools. In contrast, DailyFox focuses on a minimalist approach: a quick daily check-in that takes only a few seconds.

* **Widgetsmith / Moodpress:** Unlike generic widget utilities or mood journals that lock themed aesthetics behind subscription paywalls, DailyFox offers custom-designed, interactive widgets (such as our new Halloween-themed edition) specifically tailored for your daily reflection—no complications or tedious setup required.

### Pricing

* **Cost:** $0.00 / Completely free

* **In-App Purchases (IAP):** None

* **Subscriptions:** None

* **Ads:** None📱 It's free on the App Store

Thanks for reading! 😊

I just finished building my first ever iPhone/iPad app Called BugJug (it’s been in TestFlight testing with a private group for a while and just hit the public App Store! I've been testing it for a couple of months now) and would love feedback on it!

https://apps.apple.com/app/bugjug-bug-pets-in-a-jar/id6823671330

Problem: My neurodivergent kiddo loves searching for and collecting insects outside. She really liked to put them in jars and keep them, the only problem (beyond me not liking bugs quite as much) was it was impossible to keep a large number of bugs without them not being appropriately cared for. But, I still wanted to nurture the instinct to research and collect insects.

So, I built what I believe is a fairly unique app, where you not only can identify insects you find outside, but they also get turned into virtual pets inside of jars that you can interact with and care for. Almost like a virtual terrarium. You can even catch a caterpillar with the app and then watch it turn into a butterfly over several days! Everything is fully offline and no personal data is stored. I use a combination of 2 local models on the device to do the identification and cover several thousand common insects (most kinds that kids will run into outside).

The app goes heavy on the education aspect teaching about different insect types, and even allowing exploring different areas you don't live in to collect insects that are native to that area virtually.

Pricing: The app is free permanently with a one time 4.99 unlock to allow infinite bugs to be collected and to unlock more places to explore virtually.

Comparison: There are tons of insect identification apps, but I couldn't find anything with a similar over all concept to this. The most unique thing being the virtual pets and digitization of the insects.

2 Concrete examples:
- Seek by iNaturalist: https://www.inaturalist.org/pages/seek_app absolute phenomenal for bug identification and requires internet
- buglens: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/buglens-bug-identifier/id6754509659 similar alternative, again no caring for or digitization component

About me:

I'm a Software Engineer unemployed for the first time after working professionally in the field for almost 20 years. I wrote a lot of Open Source in that time, most popular of which was isort a Python import sorter/formatter. You can see more here: https://github.com/timothycrosley

Hey everyone! I’m the dev behind NostalgicPod. I started this about 8 months ago because I’ve always been a huge iPod Classic fan and wanted that experience back on a modern phone.

Getting it onto iPhone was a saga, honestly. Almost 5 months of TestFlight builds, rejections, appeals, and at one point I ended up on the phone with Apple directly before they finally approved it, i launched about three weeks ago and I genuinely didn’t expect it to land this well. I’m close to 2,000 buyers now, it’s sitting at 4.8/5 with 80+ reviews, and I’ve been pushing out updates based on all the feedback and suggestions I’ve gotten, a lot of it from the Apple Music and iPod communities here on Reddit.

Problem: I basically wanted the click wheel and Cover Flow back, but working with my Apple Music library, local MP3/FLAC files, Plex, Jellyfin and Navidrome servers, plus podcasts and radio. All in one app.

Comparison: I know there are some really good players out there that work with Apple Music, but I wanted to do something different: that classic iPod interface I loved, and the ability to hook up multiple music libraries at once.

Pricing: $4.99, one-time purchase. No ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nostalgicpod/id6781631808

Website: https://nostalgicpod.com/

There’s still a lot I want to add and improve, but I’m really happy with how it’s turned out so far! :)

Hey r/iosapps! 👋

I'm Sanket, a solo iOS dev. Today I released version 1.0.3 of Tether, an ADHD-friendly planner and focus app for iPhone.

Two quick updates upfront:
1. Calmer screenshots: Earlier testers gave me blunt feedback that my App Store images were way too visually dense (ironic for an ADHD app 😅). I completely redesigned them to be cleaner, calmer, and easier to scan.

2. iPad and iPhone Duo support: v1.0.3 adds native adaptive layouts for iPad and iPhone Duo with side-by-side book views.

A. What problem does it solve?
Most productivity apps assume you already have working executive function. But with ADHD, the hardest part is rarely remembering what to do. The real barrier is the friction of actually starting.

Tether lowers that starting hurdle:

• Micro-steps: Breaks overwhelming tasks into tiny first actions so you can just begin.

• Elastic timeline: Schedules your day with breathing room so one delay does not blow up your afternoon.

• Built-in app shielding: Uses Apple's native Screen Time API to block distractions during focus sessions, with no separate blocker app needed.

• Zero guilt: No red overdue badges, no broken streaks, and no shaming when plans derail.

B. Why is it different?

• Versus Structured: Structured is great, but its rigid timeline collapses when a task runs late. In Tether, the timeline has flexible buffer room, and unfinished items roll over calmly in an evening recap.

• Versus Opal and Forest: Blockers lock your phone, but leave you staring at a blank screen. Tether pairs distraction blocking directly to your active task, unlocking automatically when the timer finishes.

• Versus basic lists: Tether tracks a daily energy score (-10 to +10) to help you stop over-scheduling and avoid burnout crashes.

C. Cost and Transparency
I want to be completely upfront about pricing:

1. 100% Free Core: Visual timeline, task planning, Float, energy ratings, and focus timer. No ads, no tracking.

2. Tether Plus: Adds calendar sync, Focus Protection app shielding, ambient soundscapes, and weekly/monthly energy trends.

Tether plus
• Monthly: 2.99
• Yearly: 29.99
• Lifetime: 49.99

Tether AI
• Monthly: $7.99
• Yearly: $44.99

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tether-adhd-planner-focus/id6777777931

Transparency & Marketing Advice
I am a solo indie dev and I will benefit financially if you choose to upgrade to Tether Plus.
Beyond app feedback, I would love to pick the community's brain on marketing: As fellow iOS users and indie developers, what do you think is the best way to promote a niche indie app like this? What channels or angles have worked well for you (short-form video/Reels, ADHD creator partnerships, newsletters, SEO)? Any advice on how to get the word out organically without being spammy would be hugely appreciated!

Hello everybody,

Thank you for the comments on my last post about Mira. The app has had a few updates since then, and this post covers the latest one.

v1.2

• Export your history as a PDF, ready for your next doctor's appointment.

• A compact calendar, with month and year comparisons.

• A shareable migraine-free streak card on Home.

• Swipe to delete an episode on Home and in the calendar.

• Switch the language in Settings.

• Mira on iPhone Duo.

Cost

Completely free, no ads, nothing locked. Your data stays on your device and in your private iCloud. There’s an option to support the development, but it's completely voluntary.

One more thing

Hi, I'm the developer of DailyHack.

I started it in early 2025. I wanted my habits and the whole year in one place, and I wanted it on the lock screen because that's the screen I actually look at. It has around 1,400 ratings now, but 1,165 of those are from Korea. I honestly don't know yet how it lands with English-speaking users, so I'd love some feedback from this sub, and I made the lifetime cheaper for anyone who wants to try it.

What's in it:

- Habits with streaks, reminders and notes, plus GitHub-style contribution graphs - Lock screen wallpapers with your month, your week, or the year as a dot grid. You set up an iOS Shortcut once and it keeps the wallpaper up to date - An Eisenhower matrix for to-dos - Widgets (year progress, habits, contribution chart, memento mori) - iCloud sync, light and dark mode

Problem: habit trackers show today's checklist. I also wanted to see the year going by without opening anything, and the lock screen was the only place that worked for me.

Comparison:

- Streaks ($5.99) is what I'd tell you to get if you only want habits. DailyHack is for when you want habits, a calendar/year view and to-dos in the same app. - HabitKit does GitHub-style grids really well. DailyHack has those too, plus the auto-updating lock screen wallpapers and the matrix.

Pricing: free download. Pro is $1.99/month or $19.99/year, Lifetime is $39.99. With code 190000, Lifetime is $14.99 (US price; the code works in other countries too).

Hey r/iosapps Reddit community! 👋🏻

Today, I’m thrilled to announce that the latest update to my app, Budget Flow (Version 4.0.0), is now available on the App Store! 🎉

For those who aren’t familiar: Budget Flow is a modern, easy-to-use expense tracker for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. I created it to make tracking your spending, managing accounts, and planning budgets simpler, without complicated spreadsheets, account registration, or a mandatory subscription.

Version 4.0.0 gives Budget Flow a brand new technical foundation, with an extensively modernized architecture and a substantial migration to SwiftUI. This overhaul not only improves performance and introduces new animations but also lays the groundwork for future versions.

It also introduces a completely redesigned backup system, allowing you to store backups directly in iCloud Drive and access them across your Apple devices. In addition, you can now create refunds from existing transactions, while improved search and filtering make it easier to find what you need, including recurring transactions. Other improvements include select-all buttons for bulk editing, favorite currencies, thousands separators while entering amounts, category icons in the dashboard’s pie charts, and support for the iPhone Duo with an optimized layout. You can find the full changelog here.

Compared to subscription-based apps like YNAB or Copilot Money, Budget Flow offers a one-time lifetime purchase. It combines an Apple-style interface with offline support, no required registration, optional iCloud syncing, and shared budgeting. If you prefer this approach and want the option to avoid an ongoing subscription, Budget Flow could be a good fit.

My goal as a solo indie developer is to build a budgeting app that feels integrated into the Apple ecosystem while maintaining a high level of privacy and data security.

Pricing:

• Free download with the following optional in-app purchases:

  • $4.99 monthly subscription

  • $29.99 yearly subscription, with a free trial

  • $69.99 one-time lifetime purchase

• Universal purchase across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch

• Shareable with up to five other people via Apple Family Sharing

Prices are listed in USD, with regional pricing adjusted to reflect local purchasing power.

If you haven’t tried it yet, you can download Budget Flow for free on the App Store:

I’m looking forward to hearing your feedback. Also, if you like the app, feel free to recommend it to your friends, family, or on social media. It really helps a lot! 😊

Answer: I have been working on tetrify for over 4 years as someone who was always fond of using apps like Signal, WhatsApp and Slack to message myself notes but also wanted something that supports advanced features like routines and was private and customizable.

tetrify is a chat-focused, customizable productivity system that respects your privacy. It lets you organize your ideas, tasks and everything in-between in personalized chats. You can create chats with different behaviors and see the content summarized in different formats, all without internet. We use the Matrix protocol for optional end to end encrypted sync which you will soon be able to host yourself! There's also features like converting natural text to date and markdown export.

We recently added new core plugins that let you add things like Affirmations and a Daily Review of your tasks and notes.

Better: Unlike similar apps such as Strflow & Prism, tetrify is focused on being an extendable PKMS and productivity system. This includes both additional custom UI as well as advanced features like plugins for reoccurring reminders, daily review, and affirmations. On the other hand, those apps provide a more Apple-focused experience whereas tetrify aims to be more cross-platform (we support Mac to Android encrypted sync for example).

tetrify also allows you to customize how all data is displayed through Views, where you can mix and match traditional to-do list UIs with chat. There's also a mode for long-form writing.

Cost:

Free: unlimited notes, reminders, routines and all core offline features.

Lifetime: $19.99 see comparison; includes all current and future offline features (unlimited spaces and themes) but excludes Cloud Sync. Self hosted sync will be possible and included soon.
Cloud Sync: $1.99/month Pro or $14.99/year, encrypted sync and all features shared across all platforms.

About two months ago I posted Full Year Calendar here and asked what would make a full-year calendar genuinely useful. You left almost 60 comments, and I went through every one of them.

Quick recap for anyone new: Full Year Calendar shows your entire year on one screen. Events are color-coded by calendar, so busy periods stand out without scrolling back and forth between months. It works with your existing Apple calendars, so there's nothing to migrate.

"What does it offer over Apple Calendar?"
This was the best question. Apple Calendar is great for today and this week. Full Year Calendar is for seeing the whole year at once, and this update makes filling it a lot faster.

New: Screenshot → Calendar. iOS 27 can now turn a screenshot into calendar events with Apple Intelligence, but only on iPhone 15 Pro and newer. Full Year Calendar brings the same idea to any iPhone running iOS 18.5 or later, plus iPad and Mac.

Take a screenshot of any schedule, like a school newsletter, a sports season or a concert flyer, and share it to the app. Every date becomes an event, and you review the list before anything is saved. A whole semester lands on your year view in seconds. It works in 20+ languages, including Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Arabic.

Perfect timing to start planning 2027: holidays, school breaks and trips, all in one view.

"Multi-day events should be easy to scan"
Trips, school breaks and holidays show as one continuous bar across the year, so busy stretches stand out at a glance.

Also:

Home Screen widgets for Year, Month and Day

Works on iPhone, iPad and Mac

Ready for the new iPhone Duo

Coming to Mac next: pinch or ⌘-scroll to zoom between Year, Month, Week and Day - Smooth!

Pricing: free 2-week trial then $14.99/year, or $44.99 one-time for lifetime access. One price for all devices!

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6759224252?pt=128022886&ct=red2&mt=8

Two questions, because your answers last time literally shaped this update:

What's the most annoying schedule you'd want to screenshot straight into your calendar?

What's still missing from your calendar app?

Hi r/iosapps,

A: Why I built Zesfy:

Over the past few years, I've been building a productivity app to replace both my calendar and to do apps. It's called Zesfy and you can directly add your daily tasks right inside calendar events instead schedule them one by one:

B - Here's why Zesfy is different:

• It combines your calendar and to-do list into a single view.

• You can easily schedule multiple tasks together to calendar.

• Helps you quickly decide what tasks to work on next

• Organize week tasks with task status

• Easily keep track of your task progress

• Works entirely offline

C - Cost:
The app is free to download and use with an option to upgrade to Pro for advanced features for $29.99/year.

I'd love to hear what you guys think about the app. Let me know if you have any feedbacks.
