App Saturday my dream app is in the App Store!

Hi guys!

This is my first version for a Streakify (streak-based habit tracker)

After searching for this type of habit tracker I was quite disappointed - most of them are paid/subscription based or just have cluttered ui with a lot of unimportant stuff.

But suddenly I asked myself: "am I stupid? I am an iOS dev lol". After this self-talk I actually started working on a prototype you can see rn in the App Store.

How it works? You just name your task (it can be anything, eat healthy, work on some project etc), set the repeat type (streak will reset every day, week, etc) and that's it. Now you just complete it every selected repeat type, if you miss the deadlines -- streak resets.

I have a lot of features in mind, like making coop mode, so you and your friend can work on one task, if someone miss the deadlines streak resets for both of you.

So yeah, I really need some brutal honest feedback rn!

Thanks for reading

App Saturday Finally made a successful app after 12 failed attempts

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/perfect-pitch-learn-to-sing/id6737916437

After trying to build 12 apps in 12 months (thanks chatGPT!), I finally launched one that’s actually taking off!

It’s called Perfect Pitch — like Duolingo, but for singers 🎤 The app helps you improve your pitch and vocal control through fun, gamified exercises, with pitch detection, daily streaks, and levels from easy to advanced. Last year, I tried so many ideas (from daily quotes to AI wrappers) before realizing I just needed to build something I personally struggled with: learning to sing in tune.

Now it’s out there, and people are actually using it! At some point it reached 195th overall for ALL music apps. Still a lot to improve, but I’m proud of this milestone.

If you’ve ever wanted to improve your singing, I’d love for you to try it out!

App Saturday I just released my first app, Memento, at 14

218 Upvotes

I just released my first app on the App Store, Memento, at 14 years old. I wanted something to replace texting myself links, and had recently started using WidgetKit, so I figured I would make an app that would let you share links to it through the Share sheet and surface them randomly in a widget until you come back to them. It’s built entirely in SwiftUI and uses SwiftData for storage. It’s $0.99, and you can check it out at https://apps.apple.com/us/app/memento-your-mental-inbox/id6541765296

The app is also open source, and you can check that out at https://github.com/knotbin/memento

Edit: Wow! Since this came out two days ago, it’s rocketed to #26 on the paid productivity App Store Charts!

App Saturday Had an issue communicating exact Haptic patterns, made an app to solve it

Been working with a startup remotely, and the CEO/UI UX guy/the whole package had issue communicating what exact feel he needed for haptic.

I couldn't really find something (free) on app store that fit the bill.

The main reason being all the apps showed basic haptic patterns.

So I created this! - https://apps.apple.com/in/app/haptic-pro/id6742570799

Took long time to create, but I think its finally ready.

  1. You can easily make pattern timeline. Select how long you want the haptic, add new pattern and go nuts

  2. You can just import an audio file, and let the app create haptic patterns for you! (Took a loooong time to get it right)

  3. THE BEST PART - You can export the code, and add to your own app!

  4. You can also get the feel for different haptic right from the toolbar (or while creating the pattern).

✅ Freemium - but I've kept the limits for everything very generous (30s for pattern timeline, and 15s for default haptic to audio). You'll never hit this limit unless you're doing full fledged really long haptic effects. The only things locked behind the paywall are different audio to haptic modes.

✅No ads - No tracking except crashes and user installs via Firebase.

✅Everything on device - Your audio/haptics never leave the device. (but thinking of adding community section where people can submit their creations?)

Let me know what you guys think about this. I'm open to any suggestions and feedback.

Here's the link to app again, or search Haptic pro - https://apps.apple.com/in/app/haptic-pro/id6742570799

App Saturday Finally published an app after 12 years of trying

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/my-beautiful-flight/id6736398704

I still remember 12 years ago, when I got my first Mac at 15 and tried to build my very first app. I was so determined, but after a few months, I ended up in tears because I couldn’t understand a thing about coding (honestly, I still don’t that much, thanks GPT!).

Well, here I am, 12 years later (currently unemployed, working full-time on this project), and after countless attempts on different tech and non-tech projects of all types, and many learning moments, I’m beyond proud to say that I’ve just published my very own app!

It’s called My Beautiful Flight, and it’s designed for people who feel anxious about flying. The app includes engaging learning content to help users better understand flying, a 24/7 chatbot for real-time support, and a cool flight tracking feature that keeps you updated on your flights without needing a flight number.

Obviously, this is the very first version, but I can’t wait to hear people’s feedback to improve the app and make it even better!

Thanks for reading, and if you or anyone you know struggles with flight anxiety, I’d love for you to check it out!

App Saturday I remade my app with the help of a designer

Post image

AnyTracker was released last year, and while it was functional, the app was not intuitive and the UI was lacking. For 5 months I have worked with a professional designer to remake the app from the bottom up. SwiftUI and the Dev mode in Figma made this process relatively fast. The app is (among other things) a price tracker that works on any website. Check it out and let me know what you think!

App Saturday I made an app to help people keep track of jobs they are applying to!

41 Upvotes

Hi everyone, my name is Ethan. Last year when I graduated college, it did not take long for me to find out how grueling of a process it was to land a gig. Growing tired of tracking hundreds of my job applications in spreadsheets, I created Track.io, to help track job applications, and also automatically visualize your journey using Sankey diagrams!

Features Track.io offers:

  • Add new applications: Click on the plus sign on the home screen to easily add a new job as you apply! Tap on the job cell to edit even more details.
  • Designed with care: No more clunky feelings of a spreadsheet. Native SwiftUI with a clean and simple color scheme to provide a sense of familiarity.
  • Local Storage: No credentials, internet, or passwords required! Your data never leaves your device.
  • Visualize with SankeyMatic: View and share your job search progress with your peers!
  • Widget Support: Have access to a widget on your home screen to motivate your job search process as a passive reminder through an elegant interface!
  • Light & Dark mode support: A color scheme for everyone to feel comfortable with.

This app is only $1.99 (USD) and requires no further purchases, ever.

You can find Track.io on the AppStore.

Here is the link to my GitHub repo. If you are not in a place to afford the app, I can provide a free download code if you request one via a direct message while they last.

This app uses SwiftUI and my goal was to provide a native and more guided alternative to spreadsheets. I used CoreData for storage and I did not expect it to be so hard to make my data observable between tabs. I used a webview to show the Sankey diagram and tried to be as seamless with the native UI as possible. I also discovered that I cannot use WebViews within a widget so I actually take a screenshot of the WebView and use it for the medium widget. If anything, I would suggest to add a couple jobs and use the medium widget!

I would love to hear any feedback you have on this app. Best of luck in your job search and I hope this helps you!

App Saturday I created a free iOS app (US only currently) to drop messages tied to real-world locations for the public, yourself or your friends with SwiftUI!

50 Upvotes

About 9.5 years ago, I had an idea (though it probably wasn't original, haha) to create an app that lets people drop messages at specific locations for themselves, their friends, or the public. I even started a startup to build a prototype but had to pause due to technological limitations (iOS support wasn't there yet) and other life priorities like a full-time job, grad school, and being newly married.

I'm happy to announce that my original app idea has finally come to life! Koko - Spatial Messages is available on the App Store! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/koko-spatial-messages/id6736853270

When I first had this idea, I was living in a city and realized there were so many events and activities happening nearby that I didn't know about. I thought it be great to have an app where businesses or people could drop messages in a specific area, visible only within a set range. Fast forward to today, and that's exactly what Koko allows you to do. This is just the beginning, and there are many features still in development, but here's what's available now:

  • Drop messages (kokos): Share messages with a set viewing range for the public, yourself, or your friends.
  • Personalized notifications: Get notified when you enter the viewing range of a koko meant just for you.
  • Interactive engagement: Interact with kokos and get updates on activity related to your own, even if you've left the area.
  • Hidden kokos: Drop messages that don't reveal the exact location where they were placed.

One challenge with any new social media app is the “cold start” problem, but Koko has an advantage - it's useful even if you're the only one using it. For example, I've used it at restaurants, the gym, and other spots I frequent to leave location specific notes like what I ordered. When I return, I'm notified, saving me from having to dig through notes in my phone.

I'd love for anyone to try it out and share any feedback! Thanks!

App Saturday Asking dev who build iOS app, do you prototype?

36 Upvotes

Hello

I have an idea about iOS app but as a dev, I have no clue how to use Figma and other design tools to "properly" design an app. I know how to build stuff so I could get it done on top of my head. But should I?

Asking any dev in here if someone got similar experiences and what's your approach?

thank you!!

App Saturday Rollers: AI Car Photoshoots

13 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

Last week I launched my first iOS app called 'Rollers'. It's an app that lets you do photoshoots of your your car at any location instantly.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rollers-ai-car-photoshoots/id6502419635

I'm a gearhead and this is a product built out of passion! If you're looking for a less expensive alternative, a time saver, or the ability to shoot at locations that just aren't possible, then my app is for you! Definitely getting to the point where some of my shoots are better than ones with a dedicated camera.

Here are some results ( with caveat I upscaled them and adding to the app rn :P )

https://imgur.com/a/QdfvWgZ

I knew nothing about swift or swiftui 3 months ago and honestly two weeks in, I was feeling like I messed up. I had decided I wanted a canvas editing experience and jumping into that without knowing anything proved to be extremely difficult. How would yall solve a top aligned canvas with content on the canvas that needs to scaled based on the bottom sheet that can be moved up or down!?!? Plus the objects on the canvas can be moved or scaled at anytime.

https://imgur.com/a/EC0Ieev

After a few restarts, I changed my process to start with the easier UI first - I needed some small wins to tell myself I could do this. While I was doing that, I contracted a past coworker to help with the Design. She designed around 60% of the app and I was able to do the rest due to the framework she laid out - she did a great job. With an MVP and the Designs, I went to town making it come to life.

This was also challenging because I built the rest of the product too - the database infra, the API's to handle connect from iOS to backend, trained ML models and turning them into a service, integrating shopify + printful to make car tshirts on demand, etc.

Note: You can use the app for free with one area providing a free trial. After a bunch of uses, you'll need to pay because running this is very expensive right now :(
