I’ve tried building habits more times than I can count.

Gym, journaling, reading — I’d go strong for a few days, maybe a week… and then just stop.

For a long time I thought it was lack of discipline. But after paying attention, I realized something stupid:

I wasn’t failing the habit — I was failing the logging.

Every time I completed something, I had to:
unlock phone → find the app → open it → tap around → log it

Took ~20–30 seconds.

Doesn’t sound like much, but that tiny friction was enough for me to start skipping… and once I skipped tracking, the habit itself died soon after.

So I tried an experiment:

What if logging a habit took less than 2 seconds? ⚡

Like literally just saying:
“habit done” 🎤

That idea bothered me enough that I spent the last ~3 weeks building a small Android app for myself (just nights after work).

No grand plan — just wanted to remove friction completely.

What I changed:

  • Voice input instead of typing 🎤
  • Everything works offline (no accounts, no sync headaches) 📵
  • One simple screen for everything (tasks + habits together) 📊
  • Basic streaks just to see consistency 🔥

Nothing fancy.

But weirdly… it worked.

For the first time, I didn’t drop off after a week. Logging felt almost invisible, so I kept going without thinking about it.

A couple of friends tried it too and had similar results, which honestly surprised me.

So I put it on the Play Store yesterday just to see if anyone else finds it useful. No monetization or anything — I wouldn’t even know how to market it properly 😅

Right now I’m more curious about this:

Do you think friction (like opening apps, typing, etc.) is what kills habits more than motivation? 🤔

Or is this just a “me problem”?

If you’ve struggled with consistency, I’d love to know what actually breaks the chain for you.

Happy to share the app link if anyone wants to try it — but mostly just here to learn what works / doesn’t 🙏

What metrics do you actually look at for a quick morning market overview? (Building a zero-noise dashboard and need feedback)

https://imgur.com/a/jNj4DKZ

Hey everyone,

I got tired of opening multiple platforms, checking different websites, and staring at complex charts for an hour just to get a simple grip on what the market is doing today. Most tools out there are bloated with noise and ads.

As you can see in the link above, I'm currently developing a mobile dashboard called HappyWick (free, zero ads) aimed at providing a clean, single-screen morning summary.

Right now, we aggregate:

  • Market Pulse: Fear & Greed index, BTC dominance, Stablecoin dominance, and Top Gainers/Losers.
  • Key Levels & Ratios: Support & Resistance for BTC/ETH/SOL and MVRV Ratio.
  • AI Power: A smart AI market summary and a clean news feed.
  • On-Chain: Simple BTC wallet tracking with push alerts.

We are currently working on adding full EVM wallet support and personalized portfolio features, but I want to ask the community:

What is truly essential for your daily morning glance? What are we missing here?

I’d love to hear what your ideal "clean" dashboard looks like. Any feedback on features or UI is highly appreciated!

I built a minimalist image compressor for Android to hit exact size targets

Hi everyone. I spent the last few weeks working on ImagePress.

I built this because I was tired of using online tools that blast you with full screen ads or didn't allow for specific file size targets in KB/MB, which is usually required for certain uploads.

The app handles:

  • Bulk resizing and compression.
  • Exact resolution targets.
  • Target file size limits (auto-adjusts dimensions to hit a specific KB/MB).
  • Conversion between WebP, JPEG, and PNG.

I focused on keeping the UI clean and the processing local to the device for speed. If you handle a lot of image optimization, I’d appreciate any feedback on the app.

I built a free hub for Play Store developers who need testers

I built TestLaunch because I keep seeing Play Store developers posting that they need testers, feedback, or people to join their testing links.

TestLaunch is a free place to list your app, share your testing link, and let testers find projects that need help.

You can add your app name, platform, category, test duration, contact email, description, testing link, and what kind of feedback you are looking for.

The goal is simple: give Play Store developers one clean page to share instead of chasing scattered tester posts everywhere.

It is brand new, so feedback is welcome.

I spent 5 months building an offline music player focused on synced lyrics and minimal UI, was it worth it?

Hey everyone,

For the past few months, I’ve been working on an offline music player called Melodika.

Most music players either feel bloated, outdated, or overloaded with unnecessary features, so I wanted to build something cleaner and more focused.

Some things I focused on:

• Minimal black & white UI

• Smooth animations

• Offline-first experience

• Embedded lyrics support

• Line-by-line synced lyrics

• Word-by-word synced lyrics support

• Custom lyric editing tools

I’m still improving it actively, but I finally felt it was polished enough to share.

Would genuinely love feedback from music lovers and UI enthusiasts here.

I just launched my app called MemoryMap and I’d love to get some honest feedback.

✨ What you can do:

Save photos directly to places you’ve visited

Automatically organize memories by city & country

Keep everything private and secure

Use the in-app camera to capture moments instantly

I built this because i wanted a better way to remember where my best moments happened, not just scroll through random photos.

Need a brutal landing page review for ATLAS (AI context portability tool)

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for an unfiltered review of my landing page: useatlas.space

What the app does: Atlas is a browser extension designed for power users who switch between different LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini). It captures your active chat history, extracts the core semantic data (decisions, tasks, key concepts), and generates a compressed "seed" that you can paste into another AI to resume your work instantly without losing context.

I uploaded a split-screen demo video to show the exact workflow.

What I need from you: I want to know if the website successfully communicates this value proposition on its own.

  1. When you land on the page, do you understand what the tool does in less than 5 seconds?
  2. Is the messaging clear, or is it too confusing/jargon-heavy?
  3. What is the main reason that would make you leave the page without trying it?

Please be as harsh and direct as possible.

Thank you!

Built a Windows utility to create a better way to minimize apps

Hey! I built LiveShelf, a free and open-source Windows utility that turns minimized apps into live cards, so you can keep an eye on windows you’re waiting on without leaving them open.

I’d really appreciate any feedback, stars, or suggestions :)

I made Falken Writer, a retro text editor for iPadOS/macOS. Looking for feedback!

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a project I’ve been working on called Falken Writer. It’s a retro-styled text editor built specifically for iPadOS and macOS, designed for anyone who misses that classic, distraction-free green/amber screen vibe.

The app is fully functional and completely free to use for writing. I’ve only included a single, optional in-app purchase to unlock extra visual profiles (different color themes for the editor) if you want to customize it further or support my work.

I’m really looking to get some feedback from fellow developers on the performance, UI, or anything you think could be improved.

You can check it out and find the download link on my website here: https://takatokefactory.com/apps/Falken%20Writer/

Thanks for reading, and I hope some of you find it useful for your daily writing or coding notes! Let me know what you think.

Made an app out of boredom 🥲

So to begin, I used to watch TikTok and Instagram Reels, but there came a time when internet access became a problem — I didn't really have money to purchase data, and the little I got went toward coding on my laptop or watching YouTube. By the time I was exhausted and wanted to relax with TikTok or Instagram (that's where I release my stress 😁), I'd watch 2–3 videos and that was it. Out of internet.

This happened multiple times, so I decided to do something about it. I also had no interest in scrolling my gallery — most of it was videos I'd downloaded from TikTok or Instagram, but I never watched them there because I'd have to scroll past images and random stuff just to find one video.

So I built an offline reel app. Now I can watch all my downloaded videos just like I have internet — no digging through images, just pure scrolling. I loved it, shared it with people around me, got feedback, improved it — and now I think it's time you guys knew about it too. And in case you want to collaborate 😁.

A voice-first lazy productivity app.

Hi, I’m 25M software engineer and I built a yet another productivity app and I’ll tell you why.

This app solves 2 core problems of productivity apps :-

  1. Every single thing you want to track (habit, journal, mood, meals, workouts, expenses, voice notes etc needs another specific app to download, pay for and learn its own mechanics)

  2. Every app adds more and more features to it which frankly most people never use or need and every additional tap, config and organisation adds to the mental load of using it and eventually abondaning it.

Thats why I built “Log Anything”.

Here you can track everything I mentioned above and more.

It has one timeline screen where you add all your entries from just 1 input box where you can type or speak your entry in natural language and everything else will get auto-parsed for that entry type and will get presented in its own detail screen.

You say,

- 10$ on coffee starbucks
- met anil at coffee shop
- ate chicken burrito with 100g curd
- feeling good due to nice weather
- did bench press 10kg 10 reps, 12kg 8 reps
- weight 81.5kg

All of it gets auto parsed into an expense, interaction, meal, mood, workout and metric without ever touching any form or screen.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/in/app/log-anything/id6766284543

Happy Logging.

Salam everyone,

Over the past months, I’ve been working on a small app called Tilawa. I originally built it for myself because I struggled to stay consistent with reading and memorizing the Qur’an.

Most apps felt either too overwhelming or not really focused on building a daily habit.

So I tried to keep this one simple and calm: – a clean reading mode – a step-by-step Hifz mode (Ayah by Ayah) – audio with repetition – basic progress tracking

It’s still early and I’m actively improving it, especially the learning flow and recitation support.

The Play Store listing is still being updated to English, but the app itself is already usable.

If anyone would like to try it and share honest feedback, I’d really appreciate it. Even small feedback, especially what feels confusing, helps a lot.

I wanted one app to manage my entire life, so I built Biona

After months of building nights/weekends, I finally released the first version of Biona — an offline life manager for iPhone.

I originally built it because most productivity apps started feeling overwhelming to me—too many tabs, accounts, AI features, subscriptions, notifications, etc.

So I wanted something simpler:

  • Todos
  • Goals
  • Mood logging
  • Weekly insights
  • Fully offline
  • Clean dark UI

One thing I’m proud of is that the app works completely offline. No account creation, no data collection, no cloud dependency.

This is still only the beginning. My long-term vision for Biona is to turn it into a true “life super app” — one place to manage everything important in your life with a clean and calm experience instead of using 10 different apps.

Right now, this is v1, and I’m actively improving it.

Would genuinely love feedback from you, guys, so I can make it better!

Freemium

  • Free download
  • One-Time IAP for Pro Premium Version

I built an app that tracks UPI expenses from screenshots — took me 3 months

Was tired of not knowing where my money goes
every month. Manual entry apps never stuck.

So I built BillShot — you just share your
Google Pay/PhonePe screenshot to the app and
it extracts the amount and merchant automatically.

Would love honest feedback from people who
actually use UPI daily.

You have 3 seconds. What's your first impression? 👀

Necesito una primera impresión totalmente sincera 👀

Ya lancé mi app, pero aún estoy ajustando las capturas de pantalla de la App Store.

¿Qué es lo primero que se te viene a la mente al ver estas capturas?

No me refiero a lo que piensas después de leerlo todo. Me refiero a tu reacción inmediata en los primeros 2 o 3 segundos.

¿Entiendes al instante qué hace la app?

¿Alguna captura de pantalla te parece confusa, recargada o innecesaria?

Y una cosa más: ¿el personaje morado hace que la experiencia sea más memorable o distrae?

Tengo mucha curiosidad porque después de mirarlas durante días, ya no puedo juzgarlas objetivamente 😅

EDIT: More context 😊

I realized some people may have been trying to understand the screenshots without fully understanding the language, so here's a bit more context.

The app is called HeyPhone.

You create your own custom keyword and activate listening mode. If you can't find your phone later, you simply say your keyword out loud and your iPhone responds with a sound, even if it's on silent mode.

You can also set multiple keywords for different situations, use Apple Watch controls, trigger the flashlight in dark places, view weekly stats, and more.

Basically: less "Where is my phone?!" and more "Ah, there it is." 📱

I made ViewBuddy, an iPhone app for finding what to watch through friends

I built ViewBuddy because movie/show discovery still feels oddly disconnected from the people you actually watch things with.

The app is for:

- seeing what friends are watching, rating, and reviewing

- comparing taste before you trust a recommendation

- building watchlists and playlists

- browsing as a guest before deciding whether to create an account

I'm the developer, and I'm looking for practical feedback from people who try a lot of mobile apps:

  1. Is the purpose clear in the first minute?

  2. Does the feed feel useful before you have a lot of friends on it?

  3. What would make you invite one friend?

  4. Does anything feel confusing, slow, or unnecessary?

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/viewbuddy-rate-review/id6759533775

No pressure to be nice. Specific criticism is much more useful than generic encouragement.

I'm a solo dev who has been building and maintaining VeloxDB (veloxdb.dev) as an open-source project in my spare time. It's been a passion project, but like most open-source work, it's hard to sustain without some financial support.

I've set up GitHub Sponsors and I'm humbly asking if anyone would be willing to sponsor the project. Even $5/month goes a long way toward helping me dedicate real time to it instead of squeezing in development around paid work.

Your sponsorship would directly help me:

- Spend more focused hours on the project each week

- Fix bugs and respond to issues faster

- Ship features the community has been asking for

- Keep it free and open-source for everyone

👉 GitHub Sponsors: https://github.com/sponsors/abeni16

I'm not looking for anything in return — just support from people who believe in open-source. Thank you for even reading this far. 🙏
