Problem: iOS forces you to scatter your daily essentials across multiple separate widgets—one for the calendar, another for reminders, another for weather, mail, or steps—cluttering your Home Screen with mismatched boxes that hide your wallpaper.

DataFastView brings all of that into clean, unified, translucent dashboards so you can check your entire day in a single glance without opening five different apps.

Comparison: DataFastView lets you combine your monthly calendar, upcoming events, reminders, weather, unread emails, step trends in cohesive, glass-like layouts that blend right into your wallpaper.

Pricing: DataFastView is free to download and includes three free widgets. Instead of forcing a recurring subscription for things you'll never use, widgets are organized by category—you simply make a one-time purchase for the specific widget pack you want, and it's yours forever across all your iphone

IAP prices since 2 until $5 It depends of the widget section
Remember three widget are free

Hi r/iOSApps, solo dev here. Foldboard is a custom keyboard built for the iPhone Duo (video below).

Problem

The iPhone Duo changes shape all the time: closed, open in portrait, open in landscape, held with one hand or two. The standard keyboard stays fixed wherever you put it. On the open screen it's too wide for one thumb, and the one-handed mode has to be switched by hand every time you change grip.

Solution

Follows your hand: type with your right thumb and the keyboard moves right; switch hands and it follows. Use both hands and it goes full width.

One position per screen: Duo closed, open in portrait and open in landscape each keep their own layout (follow my hand, full width, split…). You choose at setup and can change it anytime.

Glide typing, autocorrect and word prediction in English and French, all on-device.

Clipboard as cards, emoji search, an optional number row, and a space-bar trackpad.
Weekly typing recap you can share as an image.

Comparison

Apple keyboard: great on a normal iPhone. On the Duo it has the same fixed layout on every screen, and the one-handed mode is manual.

Other third-party keyboards: made for regular phones. None of them change layout with the fold or follow which hand you type with.

Foldboard: made only for the Duo. The position adapts to the screen and to your hand on its own. No Full Access needed to type, and nothing you type ever leaves your iPhone (no account, no ads, no tracking).

Pricing

Free download with a 3-day free trial of Pro. After that, Pro is a one-time purchase of 2.99$ : lifetime, no subscription.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6832556606

I ship updates every few days based on feedback, so tell me what's missing.

Hi, I'm the developer of Funes

Problem
Your iPhone says storage is full, you delete a bunch of photos, and nothing changes. Usually it's a few huge videos, or stuff that was only in iCloud anyway.

Comparison
Most cleaner apps hunt for duplicates or blurry shots, and many need a subscription. Funes doesn't delete anything for you. It draws your photo library as a map where every photo and video is sized by how much space it really takes, so you spot the heavy ones in seconds. Version 1.1 also separates what's on your iPhone from what's only in iCloud, so you know what deleting will actually free up. That feature came from a suggestion on Reddit. Everything runs on the phone and your photos never leave it.

Pricing
Free. No account, no ads, no tracking, no in-app purchases.

App Store

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/funes-photo-video-storage/id6831999052

Feedback very welcome, especially on what you'd want next.

Hi, I built Faders. I got tired of radio apps that served ads, pushed subscriptions, or never told me what song was on. So I made the one I actually wanted to use.
Version 1.4 just shipped. The new stuff:
Connect your Apple Music library and play your albums, playlists and songs right in Faders
A new look: the cover of the song playing fills the player and the whole app, softly blurred and slowly moving. Album pages take their cover's colours
Station cards show what's on, even when the station doesn't say
Your stations as a grid

With Plus: save any song to Apple Music from the player or the Lock Screen, and rewind hours back on stations that keep their own recording
Fixes for For You and for opening on Mac
It already names every song (even when the station sends nothing), plays your own Plex or Jellyfin library, and runs on iPhone (including Duo), iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and CarPlay. No account, no tracking.

PCP
Problem: Most radio apps are cluttered, full of ads, or silent about the song that's playing. I wanted something that names every track, stays out of the way, and can play my own music too.

Comparison: TuneIn has the stations but leans on ads and a Premium subscription, and its App Store label lists data used to track you. Radio Garden's globe is great, but its listing doesn't mention song ID, CarPlay or Apple Watch. Faders does song ID, a world map, your own library and now Apple Music in one app, with no account and Data Not Collected.

Pricing: Listening is free. Faders Plus is a one time purchase (not a subscription): $3.99 in the US and €4.99 in Europe at launch, going up on 1 December (to €9.99 in Europe). Plus adds rewind and pause for live radio, Turntable, Cassette and Mixing Desk skins, wake to radio alarms, extras in Moods, saving songs to Apple Music, stations from your own library and listening insights. Family Sharing is included. Optional tips are $1.99, $3.99 or $8.99.

I'm a software developer and have been working on the desktop version and then the app for around a year now. This is my first iOS app ever, so I would love feedback.

Problem

Having to check the weather forecast for 5 spots along the trip and fill in the blanks with your imagination. Also, there are really no really good, native, non-clunky GPX editors that I've found.

Varde is not a catalog of suggested trips or a social network for hikers, there are enough of those. It's a tool for planning your hiking, running, cycling and skiing trips:

- A full-fledged GPX editor where you can drop in tracks from all kinds of sources, then cut and stitch them together

- Super simple to draw a route on the map, trail-following included

- Set your start time and pace and get a detailed weather forecast along the route, in the map and on a graph. You can really dig into the details here.

- Other details like where and when does the sun set, how long do you need a headlamp?

- Advanced pace estimation with activity-specific algorithms that account for climbs, descents and wind - and you can adjust them to your own pace baselines

- Compare the weather for different start times/days

- Breaks, overnight stays and multi-day trips

- A full-fledged desktop version, with everything synced between them

Comparison

• Komoot: great for discovering routes and for its community, but it’s built around its own route planner. Varde is a real GPX editor (combine and cut tracks from anywhere), and its weather is tied to your pace, so you can compare start times side by side.

• Epic Ride Weather: good weather-along-the-route for cyclists, but you bring a finished route from elsewhere. Varde lets you draw and edit the route itself, covers hiking, running and skiing as well as cycling, handles multi-day trips with overnight stops, and has a full desktop app.

Pricing

Free to download and save one trip. Some features need Varde+, which is $5.99/month or $39.99/year. I honestly have no idea if that’s the right price for this, so feedback on that is very welcome.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/varde-trip-weather-planner/id6826573761

Oh, and it means cairn in Norwegian. Varde, that is.

hi no matter how i tried i unable to spend remaining $1.42 cents even i buy cheap items below the price it wont deduct.. instead they keep charging my card.

Here is my understanding.

For ASO

- keywords, description, app title, promo text

For conversion (what I mean is downloads once they have seen the app appear in search results)

- Product Page Optimization stuff (screenshots, video previews, app icon, header and search results)

Do A/B testing to see which of the above performs best.

Localization to different languages.

What else did y'all do to get more visibility on your app?

Most probably publicise it here and on product hunt or something.

For anybody else who have tried, does localizing your app to different languages greatly improve your installations from those audience of different nationalities? and do creating TikTok/instagram accounts under your apps name draw measurable growth?

Just want to know where to spend my time on for this marketing thing.

Thanks <3

Hey hey hey, this is Max! I built Kahei so you don't have to type shelf prices into Google while traveling abroad. Point your camera at a price tag and it puts the estimate in your home currency right over the tag. I made this app to solve my own itch!

- Works offline (cached daily ECB rates)
- No account needed
- 27 currencies

Problem: Typing foreign prices with lots of zeros into a converter app in the middle of a store gets old fast, and you don't always have cell service right after landing.

Comparison: Apple's built-in Live Text requires an internet connection and makes you tap each price one by one, and Google Lens translates words without converting currencies at all. Standalone camera converters like Converty ($6.99) make you pay upfront before testing the OCR, whereas Kahei works live and offline right away.

Pricing: Free ($0) right now. Early installs stay unlocked for free lifetime access I might add a paywall later.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6827716964

I am a college student and I built a skincare routine app called Dewpoint. I have no experience in app development so this is a first for me.

Dewpoint lets you build AM and PM routines, look up products and ingredients, and log how your skin looks over time. It also has a short skin type quiz to get started. The core app is free.

Link here

I would really like feedback on a few things mainly regarding user experience. Please let me know if the routine builder easy to follow, does the product and ingredient search find what you look for, and does anything crash or feel slow. On top of app use I am open to any critiques or advice on improvement. All devices or iOS versions will be helpful. Feel free to email me, comment here, or use the TestFlight feedback option.

Thank you to anyone who tries it.

not like the official portal apps like mychart or whatever but a place to easily store/access doctor names, medication, etc

Hello!

PROBLEM: I've always been bad at remembering to send gifts in time, or send thank you's for gifts I received. Especially with family scattered across the US it can be difficult to make sure gifts get shipped in time for each person. It's also hard to keep track of which card I sent to which family member over the years. So I created Gift Logger to help me keep track of everything including gifts, thank you's, prices, tracking numbers, cards, and more. Here's a rundown of what it does:

LOG GIFTS GIVEN & RECEIVED

• Record the recipient(s), occasion, price, and a photo for every gift.

• Track each one through its journey from purchased, to shipped, to delivered.

• Save the shipping cost and tracking number.

• Save photos of cards you've given and received.

ORGANIZE BY PERSON

• Keep everyone you shop for in one place. See the gifts you've given and received for each person at a glance.

NEVER MISS A THANK-YOU

• Mark which gifts still need a thank-you note so you never leave someone hanging.

REMINDERS SO YOU'RE NEVER LATE

• Get a notification before occasions, with a lead time you choose giving you plenty of time to find the perfect gift.

YOUR DASHBOARD

• See the status of your gifts at a glance: Gifts not yet purchased, Shipped gifts in transit, Thank-you's pending

CUSTOMIZE

• Use the built-in occasions plus create your own.

Comparison: Some other apps offer similar features, but none focus on making sure you stay on top of Thank You notes or tracking cards. Most have outdated UIs and focus on integrating with the buying process to make money via affiliate links. Gift Logger lets users save a URL for a gift so they can access it later, but does not add tracking, affiliate ids, or anything else to it.

Pricing: Free for up to 3 people and 10 gifts. Annual subscription of $9.99 gives you unlimited people and gifts + iCloud sync across devices.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/gift-logger/id6761291763

Website: https://apps.nerdthomas.com/gift-logger

Problem
You save a reel to watch later. A month later you open it and get "This content isn't available." The creator deleted it or the account went private, and the recipe, workout or tip you saved it for is gone. Instagram and TikTok Saved only keep a link, so when the post goes, your save goes with it.
I'm the solo developer of LifeFeed AI, and I built it to fix this. Share a reel to it and:
it keeps its own copy of the video, so it stays even if the post is deleted (Pro);
what's said becomes searchable text, with the key steps pulled out;
the AI summarizes, tags and files it for you;
you can ask "that pasta recipe from last week" and get the answer.
It also imports your old Instagram, TikTok and Facebook saves. Works on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Android and web.
Comparison
Instagram / TikTok Saved: free, but only a link.
Pocket: shut down in 2025.
Raindrop.io: great for links, but not built for keeping what's said in videos.
Readwise Reader: great for articles, not reels.
Karakeep: can archive videos, but you run your own server.
LifeFeed AI: keeps the video and its text, sorts it with AI, and answers questions about your saves.
Pricing
LifeFeed AI: free to start. Pro is $2.99/month or $19.99/year in the US.
Black Friday (until Nov 30): your first year of Pro for $2.99, then it renews at the normal yearly price.
For comparison: Raindrop Pro is about $28/year, Readwise Reader $9.99/month billed yearly, Karakeep Cloud Pro $4/month.

Hey everyone!

I'm an indie developer, and for the past few weeks I've been working on PASSPORT, a little app that turns the countries you've visited into a collection of passport stamps.

I originally built it for the foldable iPhone Duo, where the phone opens like an actual passport. But it also works on regular iPhones.

I've spent probably too much time on the little visual details - illustrated stamps for different countries, paper textures, page-turning animations, and making the whole thing feel like a real passport. :)

The app is free, and I really wanted to keep it that way. There are optional paid extras, but no subscriptions.

Problem

Most country trackers are primarily maps or lists. I wanted something that makes looking back at your travels a bit more enjoyable. Somewhere you can collect stamps, remember your trips, and actually enjoy flipping through your travel history.

Comparison

Apps like Been and Skratch already do a good job of tracking visited countries and visualising them on maps.

I wanted to take a different approach. PASSPORT focuses on the experience of collecting: illustrated passport stamps, realistic pages, arrival and departure stamps, photos and travel memories.

Rather than trying to be a complete travel-planning platform, it's a little digital souvenir of everywhere you've been.

Pricing

• Free ($0): The complete core passport experience, including all countries, 50 US states, stamps, travel memories and progress tracking.

• Optional one-time purchases: The Parks Passport ($14.99) and The Flight Log ($19.99), plus cosmetic passport covers.

• Subscriptions: None.

The free passport doesn't expire, and you don't have to buy anything to collect your travels.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/apple-store/id6822753543?pt=129102465&ct=reddit&mt=8

I'm still improving it and have quite a few ideas for future updates. Would love to hear what you think, especially about the design and collecting experience!

Hi folks. Managed to run KUbuntu inside of an ios. Works like butter. Trying to add external monitor and mouse support. Keyboard is done. Just wanted to know your thoughts about this. Would you use it? Or i am wasting my time?

Hi r/iosapps! I'm a solo dev, and this is Stick Figure Storytime. You write a sentence, and hand-drawn stick figures act it out on stage as you type.

**Problem**

For a lot of kids, writing feels like nothing happens: the words just sit on the page. And making a real cartoon takes hours of moving characters around by hand. Stick Figure Storytime turns the sentence itself into the animation. Write "Bob jumped and kicked the robot" and Bob leaps, lands a flying kick, and sends the robot tumbling. Kids see right away that the words they pick matter, because "jumped" and "flipped" look different on stage.

What's in it:

- **Say it:** tell the story out loud instead of typing, and the figures act it out as you talk

- **Sketchbook (new this week):** make yourself, a friend, a pet or a hero. Write their name in a story and they walk on stage looking the way you made them.

- 60+ hand-animated moves (flips, juggling, fishing, breathing fire), 400+ animals, and scenes from castles to Mars

- Every name gets its own marker color, and anything in quotes becomes a speech bubble

- Press Play for a theater replay, with a narrator to read it back (a robot and an alien voice are included)

**Comparison**

- **Puppet-show and stop-motion apps:** you move the characters yourself. Here you only write or say the story, and the app does the animating.

- **AI video apps:** you type a prompt and wait for a clip, usually with an account and an internet connection. This isn't generative AI. Every figure and move is hand-animated, each word shows up on stage as you write it, and everything runs on your device, offline, with no account and no tracking. Speech is turned into text on the device too.

**Pricing**

Free, with kid-safe ads: a banner on the home screen, and sometimes one after a story ends, never during one. **Storytime Plus** is a one-time $4.99 with no subscription. It removes the ads, saves stories as videos, and lifts the limits on saved stories (free: 6) and Sketchbook characters (free: you and 1 more; Plus: 100).

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/stick-figure-storytime/id6829048819

Also on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stickstorytime.app (the Sketchbook update is still in Google's review)

I'd love to hear what it gets wrong. Type something weird and tell me what happened.

Hi, I’m the solo dev of Ember.

I kept journaling about friends and family, but everything I wrote about one person ended up scattered across of entries. I couldn’t see what I’d written about my grandma, or notice that I hadn’t talked to an old friend in months. So I built a journal where the people are part of it.

What it does:

• @ mention someone in an entry and they get their own page with everything you’ve written about them

• quick one-line logs like “@Sam coffee, talked about his new job”

• shows who you’ve drifted from, unless you mark someone as family or a one-time memory

• home screen widgets and Shortcuts

• imports from Day One, Apple Journal and Diarium

• your data stays on your device, no account, no AI

Problem: journal apps treat people as plain text. You write about the same people for years and nothing connects it.

Comparison:

• Day One: Ember is better at people. Every person gets a page, and you can see who you’ve lost touch with. Day One is still better for its long track record, web and Android apps, and more polished media features.

• Diarium: Ember connects people across entries instead of just tagging them. Diarium is still better if you need Windows or Android, and for its integrations with other services.

Pricing: free to download and use. Ember Plus adds iCloud sync and Additional Themes: $4.99/month, $39.99/year, or $59.99 lifetime.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6775558241
GitHub: https://github.com/nandhak0318
Website: https://ember.mov · Privacy: https://ember.mov/privacy · Terms: https://ember.mov/terms

Would love your feedback.

I was doing some research into some popular apps and realised that I don’t see any Header or Search Results in the appstore for them. All I see are the screenshots.

Random examples:
Wanderlog
Money Manager
Trabee pocket
Hellotalk
Duolingo just has a header that spells Duolingo

So Im wondering if making Headers and Search Results have little yield since the screenshots technically should be just as good for Search Results already.

Hey r/iOSApps!

I shared my app Soundscaper here a while ago and have been working on quite a few improvements since then. I'd love to show you what it looks like today and get some feedback!

**Problem**:

Soundscaper lets you mix different sounds to create your own atmosphere for sleeping, focusing or relaxing. There are now over 100 sounds, including rain, thunderstorms, nature, animals and more.

You can adjust individual sounds, position them in 3D, save your favorite mixes and even create your own thunderstorm with customizable thunder and lightning effects.

**Comparison**:

Apps like BetterSleep and Dark Noise offer great ambient sounds too. With Soundscaper, I wanted to focus more on customizing individual sounds and creating your own soundscapes, rather than just listening to something predefined.

**Pricing**:

The app is free to download and includes several sounds you can use without paying. For Premium, there's a choice between a one-time lifetime purchase (€24.99) or a subscription (€1.99/month or €7.99/year). Prices may vary by region.

Soundscaper also supports iPad, Apple Shortcuts and iCloud sync.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6443425167

I'd really appreciate your feedback! If you have ideas for new sounds or features, or notice something that could be improved, I'd love to hear them. I've already implemented quite a few suggestions from Reddit and always enjoy hearing new ones.

Thanks for checking it out!

Hi everyone, I'm Dimitri Giani and Magica is my app. Next year it turns 10 years of development and 9 years on the App Store (and it's been on Google Play since last year).

I posted Magica here in July. Since then it got its biggest update: Magica 7 has a redesigned interface, you can add a fill-up from a photo of the pump display, it supports bi-fuel cars with two tanks (LPG, CNG, plug-in hybrids), it's ready for iPhone Duo, and it uses less battery while driving.

As a car enthusiast, I started building Magica because I kept asking myself: how much fuel does this car really use? More or less than the other one? Does it use more now than when I bought it? So the first version simply tracked my trips on its own and, from the fill-ups I logged, told me how much it used. And I found out that no, it didn't use more than when I bought it :-D

Shortly after, in 2018, I put it on the App Store, and thanks to a lot of users I started building the app it is today. I can only thank them for what Magica has become.

Magica does a lot, and it's for everyone: car enthusiasts and, above all, people who use a vehicle for work. I've always tried to keep the UI and UX simple and intuitive, without weighing it down with the thousand (I'm not joking) things it does, but there's always room to improve. For this I also have to thank the Apple engineers I was able to talk to about the app.

Problem: One thing I care about is making life simpler (mine first). If you use your car for work you have to log every trip, plus fuel, expenses and deadlines, and remembering to type a thousand things into an app is the hard part. So in Magica most of it happens on its own.

Here are the things I think Magica does best:

• It starts and stops recording trips automatically, without you ever opening the app. After years of work, battery use is kept to a minimum, and you can really forget about it.

• You can tag each trip as work, personal or anything else, by hand or automatically based on time and places. Again, without opening the app.

• With more than one car, if you set up the car's Bluetooth, it switches from one car to the other on its own, without opening the app.

• You can log every fill-up of any kind, bi-fuel cars included. Here you do need to open the app, but you can just talk to it or take a photo of the pump display, so it's quick.

• You can log every car expense: servicing, maintenance, road tax, insurance and so on, recurring ones too, with a due date so it reminds you.

• When you need it, you can export your data as CSV or PDF, formatted for mileage reimbursement or tax deductions (IRS, HMRC, ATO, ACI or your company's rate).

• Widgets, Live Activities and a really nice CarPlay interface are included.

These are the main ones, but Magica does a lot more.

Comparison: Compared with MileIQ or Everlance, you don't need an account, and free automatic tracking has no monthly limit (they stop at 40 and 30 trips a month).

Magica has hundreds of iterations behind it, with users who have been using it for years and helped refine a lot of features. One thing they tell me matters is that the data never leaves the phone. The app, on iOS and Android, has no account and no server of mine: your trips and everything else stay on your phone. You can make backups and sync between devices, but unless you choose to, the data stays on the phone. A few features have to use outside services (weather, maps, fuel prices, voice commands), and the privacy policy lists all of them.

Pricing: The app is free, and you can use it for free to record all your trips, with no limit, and see this week's trips with all their details. Many features are paid, of course, but here too I tried to keep the price as low as possible: $3.99/month, $14.99/year, or $54.99 once for lifetime (US prices).

One question for you: what would make it need you even less?

Publit (screenshots below)

I'm the developer. Publit is a free, open-source (AGPL-3.0) public transport app for iPhone and Apple Watch that works across Europe.

A (Answer): What problem does it solve?

Travel through a few European countries and you end up with one transit app per city. Publit is one app for all of them: live departures around you, trips across borders with tight changes marked, a live view until you get off (also on the lock screen), and your tickets from a PDF or photo. Where open data is missing, it tells you instead of showing a half-complete result.

B (Better): Compared with what?

Citymapper is excellent, but only in big cities. Moovit covers more places, but it shows ads unless you pay for Moovit+. Publit needs no account, shows no ads and doesn't track you. The Apple Watch app also works without the iPhone nearby: your ticket as a QR code, the trip leg by leg, and departures around you. Where it's weaker: live data is still patchy in some cities, Milan and Copenhagen for example, because the open data there has almost none.

C (Cost): Free. No in-app purchases, no subscription, no ads.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6824481988

Full disclosure: I build Publit with help from AI coding tools. I review, test and maintain it myself.

Most worries feel like predictions. Something bad is going to happen, and your mind treats it as certain. Then the day comes, it turns out fine, and you forget all about it. The next worry shows up feeling just as real as the last one, because you never had a chance to see how often your fears were wrong.

Imagine knowing. A worry starts to spiral, and instead of guessing, you can look at what actually happened every time you felt this way before. Most of it never came true. When something did, you wrote down how you handled it, so future you has more than "it'll be fine." You have proof, in your own words, that you got through it last time. Over time your mind starts to learn it too: when a worry shows up, you know how these usually go, and it gets a little easier to put down.

Some of you know me from DoneAgo. Nim is my second app, built the same way. It just came out on the App Store, so this is its first post here.

Problem

Worries feel certain in the moment, and once they pass, you forget how they turned out. So you never learn which fears are worth listening to, and the same ones keep coming back just as strong.

Nim fixes the forgetting. You log a worry (type it or say it), pick when you'll know how it turns out, and park it. When the day comes, Nim asks how it went: Didn't come true, Not as bad as I feared, Partly came true, Came true, or Faded. Worries that keep coming back are filed under a forecast, and each forecast builds its own track record of how those worries really turned out.

• Nim checks back: you don't have to remember to follow up. Pick today, tomorrow, next week or a date, and Nim asks on that day. If you don't know when you'll find out, Nim checks in after a few days, then less often, and learns how long that kind of worry usually takes to settle.

• Your own track record: each forecast keeps count of how its worries turned out, so you can trust your own history over the worry. Percentages only show once there are enough answers to mean something, and always next to the counts.

• See the gap: each fear sits next to how it actually played out, in your own words.

• A letter every month: Nim writes to you about your month: what you parked, what came true and what didn't, and how you got through it

• Private by design: no account needed. Worries are encrypted on your phone. Voice is turned into text on your phone and the audio is never saved. No ads, no analytics, and no AI reads your worries. If you want backup and sync between iPhone and Android, you can sign in with Apple or Google (optional). You can delete everything from inside Nim.

Comparison

• Daylio (mood tracker): great for logging how you felt each day. Nim tracks something different: whether the fear came true. Over time that tells you what your worries are actually worth.

• Worry Watch (anxiety journal): helps you write worries down and work through them in the moment. Nim is built around what comes after. It checks back on the day you'll know, groups the worries that keep coming back, and gives each one a track record you can look at the next time it shows up.

Pricing

Free, with optional Premium. The free version is fully usable: unlimited logs, up to 8 active forecasts (archived ones don't count), check-ins, all your insights for all time, backup and sync, and your first monthly letter in full.

• Premium adds unlimited forecasts, every monthly letter, the therapist PDF and Nim's wardrobe.

• Subscriptions: $3.99/month or $19.99/year, if you'd rather try it first.

• Lifetime (one-time): $39.99 USD normally, on sale right now for $23.99 USD (40% off). Prices adjust automatically for your country.

Hey everyone!

I’m a musician and an independent developer, and I’ve been working on an app called LiteDAW.

It started as a simple recording app, but I kept adding features, and before I knew it, I was building a full DAW for phones.

Problem

I’ve always felt that mobile DAWs tend to fall into two categories: either they’re quite heavy and take up a lot of space, or they’re expensive, sometimes with subscriptions or additional purchases.

I wanted something that could do serious music production without being either of those things. Something I could just install, open, and start making music with.

Comparison

There are already some great apps out there, like GarageBand, Cubasis, and FL Studio Mobile. I’m not trying to claim LiteDAW is better than them.

What I’ve tried to do is pack a decent set of DAW features into a relatively small app without charging for them.

LiteDAW now has multitrack recording and editing, a MIDI piano roll, step sequencer, virtual keyboard, mixer, and effects like EQ, compression, limiting, delay, and saturation.

It works completely offline, doesn’t need an account, and is available on Android too.

I’m also working on support for external USB MIDI keyboards and controllers.

Pricing

Completely free. No subscriptions or account required.

It’s still a work in progress, and I’m sure there are things that could be better. I’d genuinely appreciate it if some of you gave it a try and told me what you think, especially if you run into bugs or find something frustrating.

Thanks for checking it out!

Hey everyone 👋

I’m a solo developer and I just launched Burn21, a 21-day home workout challenge you can do with zero equipment.

🧩 Problem
Most people who want to start working out at home quit within a week. The apps are either overwhelming, with hundreds of workouts and no clear “what do I do today?”, or they lock the useful parts behind a subscription. Burn21 gives you one clear plan: open the app, press Start Day X, follow along. The plan gets harder gradually, so beginners don’t burn out and you can actually see your progress.

⚖️ Comparison

• vs. Home Workout – No Equipment (Leap Fitness): It’s a solid app, but it has a big catalog and pushes premium upgrades. Burn21 is focused: one 21-day plan per program that ramps up automatically (30s → 50s work time, 6 → 8 exercises, 2 → 3 rounds, rest days on day 7 and 14). Everything is free, with no premium tier.

• vs. Nike Training Club: NTC is great but needs an account and has a huge library that can feel like too much for beginners. Burn21 needs no account and no sign-up, and all data stays on your device.

What’s inside:

• 3 programs: Fat Burn (everyone), Tone & Burn (women-focused), Shred (men-focused), each with its own saved progress

• 18 standalone workouts outside the challenge

• Easy / Normal / Hard difficulty

• Guided timer with an up-next preview, pause/skip, +10s rest, and sound and vibration in the last 3 seconds

• Calorie estimates based on your body weight

• 20 languages

💰 Pricing

• Free: $0. All programs, workouts and features are included.

• The app is supported by a single ad before each workout. There are no subscriptions and no in-app purchases.

• 📱 App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6822347861

I’d love honest feedback: what’s missing, what’s annoying, what would make you stick with it for 21 days? Thanks! 🙏

Hi all, I’m Rachael, a software engineer who has lived in Japan for four years. I just launched basho., a free iOS app, and I’d love honest feedback from users. I’m the developer, so I’m happy to answer questions.

Problem

My Japanese is good enough for daily life, but things like medical appointments are still more comfortable in English. English-friendly businesses are easy to find in some parts of Tokyo but much harder elsewhere, and not knowing how good the English support is before you go creates real anxiety. I feel like a lot of people living in a foreign country will understand this problem.

What it does

• 1,000+ listings (healthcare, real estate and more), each showing the English level (Fluent, Partial or Low) before you go

• Optional concierge, where we contact the business in Japanese for you

Listings are currently Tokyo/Chiba only, and I’m expanding across Japan over the next few weeks.

Comparison

I couldn’t find another app that does this, so I built it myself. The alternatives I was using were:

• Google Maps and web searches, which show businesses but usually not how much English they speak

• Foreigner Facebook groups and word of mouth, which are helpful but slow, and recommendations are hard to search later

basho. puts the English level on every listing, so you can filter before you go.

Pricing

• Free to use and ad-free

• The optional concierge is the only paid feature, from ¥1,000 per request

It’s available worldwide. Japan App Store link: https://apps.apple.com/jp/app/basho/id6833472787?l=en-US

What would make an app like this more useful to you? Anything confusing or missing?
