Hey r/AppStoreOptimization 👋

Just launched Krato and I'd love a brutally honest review of my App Store listing before I start pushing paid installs.

What the app does: Krato is a workout guide and tracker for anyone who wants to train smarter. It breaks down exercises with GIFs and simple explanations (no gym-bro jargon), lets you build custom routines, tracks your progress, and gives basic nutrition recommendations to back up your training.

Target audience: Everyone — from first-timers who don't know a deadlift from a squat, to regulars who just want a cleaner way to track their sessions.

I often found my self cluttered when i take notes often there was a time i typed my important credentials and wasn’t able to find them when i need them because i wrote many other things in between it was frustrating so i thought why not segregate them so my eyes 👀 can find the info i want easily at the moment so did some research and finally chunks was born give a try guys hope it helps you as it helps me.

No im not chat gpt , I’m typing this myself. I made a pretty rad dog health app, maybe some others who might find it helpful if there looking for an easier way to track dogs diet, stool, symptoms and mood and sleep.

My dog is a German shepherd and then previous owner didn’t take care of it well and it had to have stomach surgery from eating metal scraps in garage.

If you have any interest in the app I made for my dog and other pet owners check it out or don’t doesn’t matter lol https://apps.apple.com/us/app/puplytics-dog-poop-tracker/id6767871361

Let me know what you think.

Hi all

I've just published my app in production for the first time. Need your help to have the first reviews.

Review mine and I will review yours.

Thank you!!!

I launched a project called Resume-Adapter and wanted to share it here for feedback.

According to Jobvite, 83% of recruiters say they're more likely to hire a candidate who has tailored their resume to the specific job they're applying for. (https://www.qureos.com/career-guide/resume-statistics-for-job-seekers)

However, that can take 20-40 minutes per application, which makes it very hard to do.

So I thought of creating an app that helps in this process. It works in 4 steps:

1. From a job site like Indeed or LinkedIn, you click on Resume-Adapter's Google Chrome Extension, which sends the job ad contents to the app
2. In the app, you select the resume you want to adapt (or upload one) and click "Tailor resume"
3. You compare the original resume with the proposed changed one. The changes are highlighted, can be reverted or edited.
4. When happy, you export the resume.

The changes are made so that:

• are limited in number, easily identified, and easy to review
• should already be good to go
• are all done in < 1 minute

I'd love feedback from other devs on a few things:

• Does this solve a real enough problem?
• Is the positioning clear?
• Unlike other tools out there, this one only does 1 job: adjust the CV. Is that OK? Or do people prefer suites of tools?
• What would you expect from something like this that would make it genuinely useful for you?

Here's the live demo: https://www.resume-adapter.com

first time publishing an app too!
nice to see how it all works out.

all kind of feedback is appreciated!

I’m building an iOS app called Dash Lists for couples, families, and roommates who just need shared lists to work without a bunch of setup.

The basic problem I kept seeing: grocery apps, notes apps, family organizer apps, and reminder apps all sort of work. Then someone has to create an account, accept an invite, learn the app, find the right list, and remember to use it. By then, the milk has been forgotten and everyone is quietly blaming the household CTO.

Dash is meant to be much lighter:

Create a list.
Send an invite link.
The other person taps once.
Everyone can add and check things off in realtime.

It’s mainly for groceries, errands, packing lists, house supplies, and the random stuff that otherwise lives in one person’s head until it becomes a marital side quest.

I’m looking for blunt early feedback:

What would make you actually use this with a spouse, roommate, or family member?
What would make you delete it immediately?
Are shared list apps already solved for you, or do they still feel annoying?

Clue 1: The concept was born after the writer read an Anne Rice novel and became obsessed with one question: what would immortality actually feel like if you couldn’t escape it?

Clue 2: Tom Hanks passed. Michael Keaton passed. The director ultimately turned to his most trusted comedic collaborator — an actor he'd worked with five times before and whose dry wit was perfectly suited for the role.

[UPDATE: ANSWER REVEAL]

🎬 UPDATE: The answer was Groundhog Day

Shoutout to u/dgrigg1980, u/Timely-Profile1865, and u/superdad0206 who got it right!

That's why I built Focushala!

Available on google playstore @ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.focus.focushala

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.

Alarmed is an iOS alarm app that won’t let you dismiss your alarm until you complete a wake-up challenge like math, memory, or shaking your phone.

It’s built for people who turn off alarms half-asleep and need a bit of friction to actually wake up. No account, no ads, free to try.

Would genuinely love feedback from people who struggle with snoozing.

‪Body Vitals:Health Widgets - Bloomberg Terminal For Your Body ‬

Cross-app health correlations that no single wearable can compute - Garmin + Oura + Strava + MyFitnessPal all feeding one readiness picture

Here is the problem every health app ignores: Strava knows your run but not your sleep. Oura knows your HRV but not your caffeine. Garmin knows your VO2 Max but not your nutrition. Every app is a silo. Your body is not.
Body Vitals reads from Apple Health - the one place all your apps converge - and surfaces what none of them can individually.

The correlation engine:

The Trends & Correlations screen runs 30-day Pearson-r scatter plots across your actual data:
Sleep hours vs HRV next morning
Mindfulness minutes vs resting HR
Caffeine intake (MyFitnessPal) vs overnight HRV
Training load vs recovery score
Daylight exposure vs sleep quality
One plain-English sentence per pair, computed on-device from YOUR numbers. Not a generic caption. Not a vibe. A real statistical relationship from your life.

And the AI Daily Coaching (Neural Coach) cross-references it all in plain language:

"HRV is 18% below baseline and you logged 240mg caffeine via MyFitnessPal. High caffeine suppresses HRV overnight."
"Your 7-day load is 3,400 kcal via Strava and HRV is trending below baseline. Ease off intensity today."
"VO2 Max of 46 and elevated HRV signal peak readiness. Today is ideal for threshold intervals."
No other app can say any of that because no other app reads from all those sources at the same time.

Everything else that makes it different:

Readiness Radar - five horizontal bars (HRV, Sleep, HR, SpO2, Training Load) showing exactly which dimension drags your score. Oura gives you one number. This shows WHERE the problem is.
Recovery Forecast - slide a sleep target AND planned training intensity to simulate tomorrow’s predicted readiness before you commit.
Five composite scores on the large home screen widget: Longevity, Cardiovascular, Metabolic, Circadian, Mobility - each backed by named peer-reviewed research, each combining multiple HealthKit inputs into a 0-100 number.
Biological Age - computed from VO2 Max, mobility, HRV, sleep consistency.
Zone 2 Tracker - auto-detected from raw HR using San Millan & Brooks (2018). Ignores whatever zones Garmin or Strava assigned.
Acute:Chronic Workload Ratio - Gabbett (2016, BJSM) injury risk bands. Flags when A:C crosses 1.5. Flags undertraining below 0.8.
Allostatic Load - McEwen (1998). A stress-burden index no other consumer app computes.
Menstrual Cycle Phase Intelligence - suppresses false HRV anomaly alerts during luteal phase. That dip is expected. The app knows.
Daily Capacity and Focus Readiness - on-device blends of readiness, sleep debt, HRV, and circadian factors.
Anomaly Timeline (free) - 7 anomaly types with coaching notes: HRV crashes, elevated HR, low SpO2, BP spikes, glucose spikes, low walking steadiness, low daylight.
Neural AI Health Coach (Pro) - conversational, runs via Apple Foundation Models on your iPhone. Ask it anything. Nothing touches a server.
Widget stack (free + Pro) - small vitals gauges, medium sleep/activity/alert widgets, large Health Command Center and Weekly Pattern grid, Apple Watch complications (37 metrics, 2x2 grid, live HR), lock screen, StandBy.
Adaptive readiness weights - after 90 days, the algorithm recalibrates to YOUR signal variance. If sleep is your most volatile metric, it gets weighted higher. Population averages are the starting point, not the endpoint.

Available in 21 languages.
