I developed Weather World because I wanted a simpler, more helpful way to stay ahead of the forecast. I truly believe that a weather app should be a tool that makes your life easier, not a source of distraction with ads and confusing menus.

How it helps you: The core of the app is all about visual clarity. I’ve focused on creating intuitive graphs that let you see temperature shifts and precipitation trends at a single glance. Instead of reading through long lists of numbers, you can visualize exactly how your day will unfold. It’s minimalist, lightweight, and built for speed—perfect for anyone who values a clean Android experience.

I’d love your support! Please give it a try and see if it helps your daily routine. If you find it useful, please recommend it to your friends! As a solo developer, your support and word-of-mouth are what help me improve and grow.

In compliance with the community rules, I’ve shared the link via IndieAppCircle. Check it out there and let me know what you think!

I'm one of the people building Swooni, a relationship app for couples.

We built it because most relationship apps feel either too clinical, too generic, or like homework. Swooni is meant to make relationship growth feel more practical and easier to stick with.

What makes it different:

- Based around the Gottman Magic Ratio and therapy-inspired principles.

- Small daily challenges that help couples stay connected without making it feel heavy.

- Progress, rewards, and a couples community layer that shows in-app actions without exposing private relationship details.

It's not therapy or a magic fix, but it's designed to help couples notice connection patterns and stay more intentional over time.

Would love honest feedback from anyone who tries it.

It's been a little over six months since I launched and it has been quite a journey. No exponential growth or huge user spikes but rather slow and steady growth. But in my opinion that is the best for building something actually valuable because you can react to user feedback along the way and constantly keep improving the app.

It's so crazy, just two weeks ago I was celebrating 2,000 users here and now I have hit another unreal milestone of 2,400! I can't thank everyone enough. I really mean it, so many people were offering their help along the way.

Of course I will not stop here and I am already working on the next big update for the platform which will benefit all the community. More is coming soon.

I've built IndieAppCircle, a platform where small app developers can upload their apps and other people can give them feedback in exchange for credits. I grew it by posting about it here on Reddit. It didn't explode or something but I managed to get some slow but steady growth.

For those of you who never heard about IndieAppCircle, it works like this:

• You can earn credits by testing indie apps (fun + you help other makers)
• You can use credits to get your own app tested by real people
• No fake accounts -> all testers are real users
• Test more apps -> earn more credits -> your app will rank higher -> you get more visibility and more testers/users

Since many people suggested it to me in the comments, I have also created a community for IndieAppCircle: r/IndieAppCircle (you can ask questions or just post relevant stuff there).

Currently, there are 2402 users, 1969 tests done and 587 apps uploaded!

You can check it out here (it's totally free): https://www.indieappcircle.com/

I'm glad for any feedback/suggestions/roasts in the comments.

1. My first app was way too niche so i made one that is way less nice. The first app was in slammed cars niche and my new app is just in the cars niche. So much bigger and easier to advertise.

2. Invite 3 friends for a free month of pro, this is something i saw other apps doing so i thought it would be good to implement this!

3. having a usefull app from the go, My first app was alot of community sourced. that way it needed alot of users before it would be really usefull. which is tuff. My new app is filled with stuff already so its already usefull even if you are the only user.

4. My new app is called AutoSwiper, Its basically tinder for buying cars. Swipe left for no, right for a like and swipe up to see the full details of the car (options, history, mileage and stuff) and swipe up for contact info or original website listing from the dealer. (Android ready and IOS coming soon!)

If any of you have any more tips to make this stuff work it would be greatly appreciated!

A friend of mine challenged me to build an app and while I know some programming, my skills mainly lie in data analysis and logic.

The debugging ended up being a lot quicker with Claude than it would’ve been on my own.

Fast forward, I built an app that I use all the time for overall wellness and had some fun playing around with the logic and integrating features I’ve always wanted to get from a few different apps. It’s called Eight Gates (@EightGatesApp) and I’d love it if people download it, have fun, challenge your friends and share the fun times and badges!

PS, I have some city based timed marketing in the app so if you’re in the right city around the world at the right time, you might get some app exclusive discounts to your favorite stores!

A couple of days ago, I shared that I was building a simple Pinterest marketing tool.

After reading all the feedback here (thank you!), I realized people wanted more than just pin generation. So I've expanded it into an end to end Pinterest planning and scheduling tool.

The goal is simple: help creators, founders, and Shopify merchants spend less time on repetitive Pinterest tasks and stay consistent with their marketing.

When it's ready, the first 30 days will be completely free for early adopters. You'll be able to generate pins, plan your content, and keep your Pinterest schedule full without doing everything manually.

I'm still building and would genuinely love more feedback. Is there a feature you'd want in a tool like this?

I've been experimenting with the another feature at reassign.ai. Made a feature that draws your predicted energy curve over your day.

Would love to get some feedback. Is this useful or gimmicky?

I realized I kept opening YouTube and Reddit without even deciding to.

So I built Lucid — a Chrome extension that interrupts autopilot scrolling with calming reset overlays, breathing goals, and awareness prompts before the doomscroll spiral starts.

Still early, but it’s already helping me become way more intentional online.

I've spent the last few months building something and I'm finally at the point where I want to share it properly rather than just quietly hoping people find it.

The idea came from a frustration I kept seeing (and feeling myself): SQL tutorials teach the syntax fine but there's never a reason to care about the answer. You filter a table called employees, get a result, and nothing happens. Your brain doesn't bother keeping it.

I wanted to try a different approach. QueryCase teaches SQL through detective investigations. You get a briefing from Chief Fox (our mascot), a real database to query, and a mystery to crack. The JOIN matters when a suspect has an alibi. The WHERE clause matters when you're trying to find who entered the building at 22:13. The SQL is the tool for solving something, not the point in itself.

Here's what's actually in it:

• A structured learning path across 54 cases, going from Recruit through Rookie, Detective, Senior Detective, and Chief Detective. Each rank has drills and a level exam to pass before you progress.
• Sandbox mode where you can explore real datasets (IMDB movies, Spotify, sports stats, Steam games) and run whatever you want with no pressure and no mystery attached. Just free exploration against actual data.
• Everything runs in the browser using DuckDB WASM so there's nothing to install.

I'm a solo developer and this is genuinely early days. I'm sharing here because this community is exactly the kind of people I built it for, and I'd rather get honest feedback now than find out later I've built the wrong thing.

What's missing? What would make you actually stick with something like this versus what you've used before?

querycase.com if you want to take a look.

Any feedback appreciated!

I built it as a pure skill-based arcade game — no complex controls, just timing, physics, and those “one more try” moments.

• Free to play.
• Optional IAP: Revive, which lets you continue your current run.

Hi, some while ago I created Everlume for the Swift Student Challenge, an app where you can store memories of loved ones. Now, I'm trying to get it to the App Store, but no public launch without carefully testing. You can help me with that, just leave your details on https://tally.so/r/Pdg2XQ (or send me a DM) and I'll add you to the TestFlight group. If you want, you can add a TestFlight link of your own app to the comments field which I will test in return. Thanks!
