Finally launched my first app on the App Store 🥳

I’ve been working on this for a while, so it feels surreal to actually see it published. I honestly didn’t expect it to get approved on the first go, so seeing it live now feels even more exciting.

Still early and there’s a lot I want to improve, but I’d really appreciate it if anyone here could check it out and share any feedback. Even small thoughts on the idea, screenshots, pricing, onboarding, or first impression would help a lot.

Thank you!! 🙏

I built a calmer productivity app because to-do lists kept overwhelming me

After struggling with traditional to-do apps, I realized the problem wasn’t only procrastination — it was the feeling of staring at an infinite list of expectations every day.

So I built Kindred.

Instead of managing endless tasks, the app focuses on making a few intentional promises to yourself each day.
The companion exists to make productivity feel more emotionally meaningful rather than mechanical.

Over time, the companion quietly mirrors your habits:
- intentional work strengthens your bond
- overcommitting drains energy
- rest matters
- consistency matters more than perfection

A few things I wanted to do differently:
- offline-first
- no account required
- no ads
- no subscriptions, just a one-time payment
- no social pressure
- no overwhelming setup
- simple UI for beginners, not productivity power users

The app just got approved on the App Store, and I’d genuinely love honest feedback — especially critical feedback.

I’d really appreciate any thoughts, critiques, or feature suggestions. There are also a lot more features and improvements I’m excited to work on moving forward.
