I tried a lot of TV remote apps and hit a paywall on every one — the volume buttons locked, ads before you can change the channel, or a forced login just to connect. So I made AnyRemote, a free universal TV remote app with everything unlocked. No paywall, no login, and no full-screen ads — just one small banner at the bottom that stays out of your way.

A – What problem it solves:
It replaces your lost, broken, or missing TV remote by turning your phone into a full universal remote — and unlike most alternatives, every button and feature is free.

B – Why it's better than alternatives:
Apps like this lock the essentials behind a paywall or bury you in full-screen ads. AnyRemote keeps every core feature free, with only a single non-intrusive banner.

Features:

Full button control — volume, channels, mute and every essential button from your original remote.

Turn TV on/off — power your Smart TV on and off straight from your phone.

D-Pad navigation — move through menus and apps with a responsive directional pad.

Smooth touchpad — highly responsive for fast, precise navigation on your TV.

Keyboard input — type search terms and logins from your phone instead of the painful on-screen keyboard.

Voice control — search and command your TV hands-free.

Playback controls — pause, rewind and fast-forward your content with ease.

App launch buttons — open your favorite TV apps with a single tap.

Auto-reconnect — reconnects to your TV automatically so you're not re-pairing every time.

Screen mirroring — mirror your phone's screen onto the TV for a bigger display.

📺 Supports most major TV brands & streaming devices:
Samsung, LG, Sony, TCL, Hisense, Philips, Vizio, Roku, Xiaomi TV, Android TV, Google TV, Fire TV, Chromecast, Fire TV Stick, Roku Streaming Stick, Google TV Streamer, NVIDIA Shield TV, Apple TV, and more.

C – Cost:
Completely free. No paywall on any feature, no forced login. Supported by a single small banner ad — no full-screen or interrupting ads.

A, Answer:
Rora is for the overthinking spiral. The text you've re-read 40 times, the conversation you're replaying at 2am, the decision you keep circling.

• It's a daily tarot practice built for reflection, not fortune-telling. You bring the real questions (the messy ones you're avoiding), and instead of predicting your future, Rora reframes what's actually going on and hands you one small move. It ends with something to do, not just a mood.
• It remembers. Your questions connect into themes (Threads), and patterns you were too close to see start to surface (Insights). Small moments compound into real self-understanding, one continuous story instead of a stack of readings you forget.

Disclosing up front, per the sub's rules: yes, it uses AI. The model is trained for the reading, but Rora is the system around it, the memory, the structure, the daily practice. AI is the engine, not the car.

B, Better:

• vs other tarot apps: almost all of them are generic. You get the same canned card meanings no matter who's asking, the kind of thing you could read off any website, usually wrapped in clunky UX. Rora reads your actual situation in your own words and hands back something built for you, ending in a move, not a one-size-fits-all paragraph.
• vs astrology apps (Co-Star, The Pattern): astrology knows who you are, tarot knows where you are. Astrology reads you from a fixed birth chart, the same for everyone born when you were. Rora starts from the question you're actually carrying today and hands it back so you reach your own answer. Reflection, not a forecast.
• vs ChatGPT / generic AI: those give you a one-off spread that forgets you the second you close the tab. Rora remembers your questions and readings and connects them over weeks, so the value compounds instead of resetting.

C, Cost:

Free to download, with 3 free readings every week.
Rora Plus (unlimited readings): $9.99/mo or $69.99/yr (about 42% cheaper than monthly).

Genuinely here for the honest feedback this thread is for! Thank you!!

I've been working on CoinCurrently for almost 6 years at this point. After 4 years I felt really stuck and kind of realized that I won't get much further alone so I made a post on Reddit that I was looking for a designer. I found a guy and once we started revamping the app, we realized that there's so much more we want to do and that requires a better backend. Doing both the iOS and Android app, I figured we need a dedicated guy for backend. The team grew to 3 people. After almost a year and a half, we finally finished revamping the entire app. It's now better looking, easier to use and is faster than ever. Free, no ads, no tracking. It's all on your device. I'm really proud to show the new CoinCurrently to the world.

A: In my opinion, the problem CoinCurrently solves is ease of use. The bigger crypto trackers are so crammed with things and the UI looks very cluttered. We've spent a ton of time to make it as easy to use as possible, everything stored on device, no tracking, no ads, no account

B: I know there's a ton of crypto trackers out there but in my opinion, crypto should be privacy focused. A lot of the bigger apps and websites requires you to sign in to use certain features and they obviously use it for targeted ads. Nothing like that in CoinCurrently.

C: CoinCurrently is freemium. All features are available for free, but you can do more of it with premium. Monthly for $3.99 or annually for $29.99

I would appreciate your feedback so we can continue to make it a better app

iOS: CoinCurrently iOS

I know this is an iOS forum but I'll just throw in the Android and Web link too if anyone prefers those platforms, I hope that's okay.

Android: CoinCurrently Android

Web: CoinCurrently Web

Keeping track of job applications can get overwhelming fast - spreadsheets, scattered notes, and missed follow-ups. JobSnail helps you stay organized by tracking applications and interviews in one place, without the clutter.

💡 Want Lifetime Premium?

Drop a comment, upvote, and DM me for a promo code. The first 100 people will get the code.

JobSnail is available as a MacOS and iOS versions on the App Store. And there's also a web version at jobsnail.app. It's also worth mentioning that all the apps are fully synced through iCloud, and an Apple account is required to use the app on Web.

About a month ago, I shared my personal movie recommendation app with this group. The feedback was incredibly positive and, more importantly, genuinely helpful in shaping the next iteration.

Based on many of your suggestions, I'm excited to launch Version 2.0!

I'd love to hear your thoughts again—what's working well, what could be improved, and any ideas for features you'd like to see. Your feedback has already made the app significantly better, and I'd love to keep that momentum going.

Thanks again for all the support, and please keep the feedback coming!

Qouch Potato — Stop scrolling. Start watching. 🎬

A — Answer: Qouch Potato is the mood-first movie & TV app that kills the 30-minute "what should we watch tonight" doom-scroll. Say a mood in plain English — "cozy Sunday night," "mind-bending sci-fi like Inception," "movies like Cast Away" — and get back handpicked results: poetic curated shelves like "🔥 Fire, Rope, and the Quiet Will" (surfacing All Is Lost + The Martian for Cast Away), rotating Timeless Classics / Award Winners / Drama Meets Comedy collections that refresh every visit, and personalized "Because You Loved Forrest Gump → try Rain Man" carousels — every pick explains itself with real reasons ("Matches your Comedy & Drama taste"). Culturally aware too: real depth in Hindi, Tamil, Korean and other non-English cinema, not just the Hollywood top-10.

B — Better: Unlike JustWatch, which is a where-to-watch search engine (you still have to know what you want), Qouch Potato actually decides for you — Say a mood → See a film. Loved it → Try this. Bring your Letterboxd / Trakt / IMDb history and the app folds ten years of ratings into a sharper taste profile in thirty seconds. Full loop in one app: Discover (personalized swipe deck) → Import → Save to Watchlist — across every streaming service you already pay for, not one platform's echo-chamber recommendations. And four themes bundled free (Sunset, Midnight, Cinema, Daylight) so the app looks the way your night feels.

C — Cost: Free to download with a generous first-month of expanded usage. Premium unlocks unlimited mood searches, swipes & watchlist — $3.99/month or $29.99/year (no ads, ever).

Cinema tastes crafted just for you.

hey folks! i'm francis, the creator of BodyBuddy.

We launched at the beginning of the year and since have over 200k texts helping nudge people towards better health.

the main experience of BodyBuddy is over text message - you get daily accountability coaching to make better health decisions every day. We have a complimenting app where you hookup healthkit, we track your health, there's a 90 day (human-designed) plan with a different focus each week, and gamification where you take care of your future self like a tamagotchi, and many other features.

for a while i've struggled with how to convey 'all the other stuff' happening. At the same time, one of the most common frustrations users would tell me is that they didn't always know whether BodyBuddy actually logged the meal and what their calories were for the day, without going back to the app to confirm.

in our latest launch your calories, protein, meals, movement, streaks (and a lot more) all show up in the Dynamic Island as you're texting. It gives a home to the side effects and ambient state that was otherwise invisible. it works surprisingly well and i believe is a first-of-its-kind interaction pattern with AI over iMessage (or certainly new to me at least).

The fun part is typically you can't use the Dynamic Island foreground directly but because we are chatting over iMessage and our app is backgrounded, so the island stays live the whole time you're texting.

would love your thoughts, is this something you'd actually use?

Hello :)

Answer
It started as a fun idea for our family dog Jeter that grew into something bigger. WeatherPets is a premium iOS weather app built to appreciate your pet to the fullest in the one tool you already check every single day.
Instead of boring weather apps you see your own pet in custom scenes that match the real weather outside right now. Their personality shows in how they deliver the forecast. We also generate an animated pixel version of them. It turns a quick weather check into a small daily moment that actually makes you smile through the seasons.

Better
This is a highly customized premium experience. No other app out there works this way. We put real care into making sure the imagery looks and feels like your pet. We keep retrying on the generations until it feels right.
Using AI can be controversial sometimes but with pets it can be fun and entertaining when implemented correctly. So far the response has been very positive.

Cost
$7.99 / per month
$59.99 / per year (we plan to raise the yearly price in the near future)

Why the subscription
High quality personalized pet imagery and pixel work takes real resources. We do not cut corners because your pet deserves to look and feel like them. The subscription lets us keep that quality high, add new styles packs regularly, and build toward a Freemium version focused on your own imagery. Right now it helps us deliver more of those small daily smiles and keep improving the experience for everyone using the full app.

This is a pretty new and unique app so honest feedback from pet owners and iOS users means a lot! Would seeing your own pet report the weather in a premium customized way become something you actually look forward to each day?

Thanks for reading. Give your pets a good pat from me.

Edit: Thanks everyone for the kind words and honest feedback!

We are looking at a couple changes based on what you have said.

More affordable limited subscription plans that still give full access to the core app for lighter users.

And a freemium version. The free tier would let you use your own pet photos and basic features like widgets, but with no AI features at all.

The goal is to make the core fun experience accessible to more people while keeping the high quality custom AI stuff sustainable. Appreciate you all taking the time. This kind of feedback has genuinely given me hope for the project!

A - It motivates you to move and keep active with workouts because every real calory you burn charges a virtual battery and powers your city. If you are lazy the lights go out and people will move out.

Actually it might be just a glorified activity ring app, but I hope it will motivate people to move more. In the beginning it is really simple (a walk around the block is enough to power your city for the day) but once you get more inhabitants you need to workout much more to keep the lights on and the people happy.

B - It is a unique approach to motivate you to stay active. With the whole city you have much more than a simple step or workout counter. You can even set taxes for your people to gain credits and build things like schools or a hospital. And if you have too much energy you can just burn it with fireworks and stuff. It is pretty simple and in it's core it is a activity tracker app.

C -

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lightson-move-to-build-a-city/id6780607028

The app is 100% free, no ads and no in-app purchases. I built on it for a long time and used it for myself to motivate me and now I thought I just freely share it with the world. If it helps anyone I am happy.

I would be very grateful for any feedback.

The App has 19 reviews in the store so here is the transparency section:

Hey everyone,
I am Artyom the developer of Squara

A couple of years ago, four friends and I were splitting a pizza in one of our trips together.
We pulled up a popular expense splitting app(no names called), and before I could tap "Settle Up," an ad played. Then a 10-second timer I couldn't skip. Then a prompt to upgrade to remove both.

I closed it and wrote down the expense in my phones notes.

Being a software developer for a few good years and shipping multiple apps on iOS & Android i decided to build Squara an expense splitting app with a focus on audit and fairness not because you don't trust your friends but because sometimes someone edits something by mistake and at the end of the trip someone gets paid less.

A. The problem

Expense-splitting apps have two separate problems that nobody's really fixing:

Friction for the sake of monetization. Ads mid-flow, timers before you can settle, daily caps on how many expenses you can log. These aren't product decisions they're engagement hacks dressed up as limits.

A trust problem nobody talks about. In most apps, any group member can edit any expense including ones they weren't part of. Nobody gets notified when someone changes what you're owed. One person can mark a debt as settled without the other person confirming. When real money is involved between real people, this is a real problem.

B. What Squara does differently

Squara is an expense-splitting app I've been building for the past few months. Groups, expenses, equal/exact/percentage/share splits, settlements the basics, done cleanly.

The part I spent the most time on is trust*:*

Strict edit permissions. Only the person who logged an expense or the group owner can modify or delete it. Nobody quietly changes what you're owed.

Full audit trail. Every edit is logged with a timestamp and before/after values in a per-group timeline. You can see exactly what changed and when.

Mutual settlement confirmation. When someone marks a debt as settled, you get notified and must confirm before it counts. No unilateral "done."

No payments processed. Squara tracks who owes what and keeps an honest record. That's it. How you actually pay each other is your business.

No ads. On any tier. Ever.

B1. Squara vs Splitwise

Ads:

Squara: Never.

Splitwise: Yes (free tier)

Settleup blockage friction:

Squara: No.

Splitwise: 10 seconds (free tier)

Edit permissions:

Squara: Payer/group owner only.

Splitwise: Anyone in the group

Audit trail:

Squara: Full, timestamped

Splitwise: None

Settlement confirmation:

Squara: Both sides required(Handshake)

Splitwise: One-sided

Multi-currency conversion:

Squara: Yes, free.

Splitwise: Yes, paywall.

CSV/PDF export

Squara:Yes (premium)

Splitwise:Yes (premium)

B2. Squara vs Tricount

Tricount is clean and honest but has no persistent groups and no real-time sync between devices. There's also no audit trail and no settlement confirmation.

B3. Squara vs Settle Up

Settle Up has a 3-group cap on the free tier. No audit trail. Settlement is one-sided.

C. Cost

Freemium. No ads on any tier.

Free:

1 group you own (unlimited membership in others' groups)

Unlimited expenses

Equal, exact, shares, and percentage splits

30 days of expense history on insights

Multi-currency insights

Full audit trail

Mutual settlement confirmation

Squara Premium (funds ongoing development):
$3.99/mo or $29.99/yr. Price varies by country of residence.

Multiple owned groups

Recurring expenses

Extended history with detailed breakdowns

Happy to answer questions about how I built it, why I made specific product decisions, or anything else. I read every reply.

Hello,
I’ve been working on a driving app called Speedometer: Driving Tracker for a while, and it recently got approved for CarPlay in the Driving Task category.

That approval process is surprisingly strict - very limited UI, no custom buttons, and a strong focus on safety; so getting through it meant a lot.

The app originally started as a simple speedometer, but over time, I expanded it into something more like a driving companion. It tracks trips, shows analytics, and tries to make driving data more visual instead of just numbers.

Some things it currently supports:

• Trip tracking with detailed stats
• Route playback (including 3D-style views)
• Visual trip sharing
• Fuel, maintenance, and expense tracking
• Driving pattern insights and comparisons
• Video recording with speed + map overlays
• iCloud sync across devices and backup
• Privacy-focused (no ads or tracking)

The idea is to offer something beyond what most built-in dashboards show, while still working within CarPlay’s limitations.

Would love to hear any thoughts or feedback.

Hi everyone! 👋🏻

*For the next 24 hours, I'm giving access lifetime access to AlarmCroc Pro for $0.00 (normally $29.99 / year) to celebrate the launch! 🎉

What is AlarmCroc: For some people, waking up is a struggle. With AlarmCroc, you have to complete a mission to turn off your alarm. And yeah, there are other apps like this one so why AlarmCroc over others?

1. With AlarmCroc turn on the "Alarm During Mission" toggle and the alarm will NEVER stop going off until the mission is completed. You can also block deletion of the app to prevent workarounds.

2. You have the ability to set one time alarms in advanced. If you have an appointment or anything else 3 weeks from now, you can set an alarm now, and have it go off later. (Something apple alarms doesn't allow)

3. We appreciate feedback. On settings AlarmCroc has two modes of feedback. Using the "Request a Feature", you can post features that other people can vote on so we can see what we should add. Use the "Message Us" option to directly send a message to the team about any issues, bugs, or questions!

With AlarmCroc you can:

* 🗣️ Use voice missions, camera missions, math, and more to shut down your alarm

* 🌍 Use the app in 30+ languages with end to end localization to prevent language barriers

Hey community!

About a year ago I posted here about Loomi, my photo/video editor I've been building solo for about two years. The feedback you gave me was really helpful and encouraging. Here's the link to the original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/iosapps/comments/1m5e69j/after_1_year_of_fulltime_solo_work_loomi_my/

I know there are lots of photo editors out there, and it's difficult to impress anyone in 2026, but I really invested my time in polishing every detail in the app - UI/UX, filters, effects, overlays, adjustments and so on. Most of my time since that initial post went into polish & adding new content. I added lots of new filters, effects, adjustments, and overlays. There are over 600 filters, and each one took many hours to create & test on a wide range of photos. Coming up next, I'm planning to add the ability to create personal presets, plus iPad support. Right now though, my focus is marketing. I'm still figuring out how to promote Loomi, and it's proving very difficult.

As a thank-you to this community specifically, I'm offering:

• 1 month free - try everything with no commitment
• 75% off lifetime access - $20 instead of $80

You can claim the free month first, and if you like the app, come back later for the lifetime discount.

App link: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/loomi-photo-video-editor/id6748413115

To claim offers, use these links:

1 month free: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6748413115&code=REDDITMONTH

75% off lifetime: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6748413115&code=REDDIT75

You can also redeem manually in the app: Settings → Redeem Code → enter REDDITMONTH or REDDIT75.

Any feedback is welcome, and if you like the app, an App Store review would mean a lot!

Thanks again for the support!

Hey everyone,

I’m a solo dev, and I built Mealify 2.0 because my biggest daily friction point was the mental exhaustion spent at 6:00 PM trying to figure out what to cook with a random assortment of ingredients.

I built this app with a designer-first mindset to make managing your kitchen look and feel entirely native to iOS. Here is the breakdown:

A - Answer:

Mealify eliminates evening decision fatigue and food waste by turning your physical inventory into an interactive, automated menu. Instead of manual database logging, it acts as a fluid pipeline from your fridge to your table. You can simply take a picture of your fridge and get a list of potential recipes. It saves tons of valuable time!

B - Better:

• Instant Visual Inventory: I tried to make it feel like a native iOS kitchen assistant rather than a spreadsheet for groceries. You just snap a photo of your messy fridge or shopping haul, no clunky manual typing required.
• Zero-Waste Alerts: Includes native tracking and smart notifications for items nearing expiration so you stop throwing money in the trash.
• Fluid Recipe Scraping: Cleanly imports your favorite web recipes using just a URL, reformatting them into beautiful, ad-free step cards.
• Group Pantry Shared Spaces: Lets you share the same pantry inventory and shopping list as your family. Everyone contributes to the same data

C - Cost:

• The Core App: You can use the core pantry, recipes, and shopping tools completely free. Premium unlocks larger limits and advanced features.
• The Big Update Sale: The standard Premium Lifetime unlock is normally $24.99, but I’m doing a discounted price of $4.99 just for the community. Just leave a comment or DM me if interested.
• No ads, no required account, and no recurring subscription.

App Store Link: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6746368726

A question for the community: As a solo developer trying to keep the layout as lightweight and minimalist as possible, which of these mechanics would impact your daily routine more? The fluid camera scanning or the clean URL recipe importer? Would love your brutal feedback on the UX transitions!

Hey everyone

Like a lot of people here, I’ve always struggled with receipt tracking. Personal expenses, freelance work, small business costs — it all ends up as a messy pile of paper receipts and half-filled spreadsheets. Manually entering everything is slow, boring, and easy to mess up.

What I really wanted was something simple:
scan a receipt → extract the data → send it straight to Google Sheets.
No heavy accounting software. No complicated setup.

I couldn’t find exactly that, so I decided to build it.

After wasting way too many hours manually logging receipts (and realizing how many expenses I was missing), I built ReceiptSync an AI-powered app that automates the whole process.

How it works:

• Snap a photo of any receipt
• AI-powered OCR extracts line items, merchant, date, tax, totals, and category
• Duplicate receipts are automatically detected
• Data syncs instantly to Google Sheets
• Total time: ~3 seconds

What makes it different:

• Smart search using natural language (e.g. “show my Uber expenses from last month”)
• Line-item extraction, not just totals
• Duplicate detection to avoid double logging
• Interactive insights for spending patterns and trends
• Built specifically for Google Sheets export

I’ve been testing it for the past month with a small group, and the feedback has been amazing people are saving 5–10 hours per month just on expense tracking.

If this sounds useful, here’s the app:

Full disclosure: I'm the developer — Dimitri Giani, a solo iOS dev from Italy. Magica has been on the App Store since 2018 (Apple "App of the Week"): 40k+ downloads, 3M+ trips logged, 175 ratings in the Italian store (17 in the US one, so don't let the US number fool you).

A — What it does

Magica automatically logs your car trips and fuel and turns them into tax-ready mileage reports (IRS / ACI compliant) — without sending anything to a cloud. It runs in the background and detects driving on its own (GPS + Bluetooth), so you don't have to open the app; you just classify business vs personal with a swipe and export PDF/CSV for your accountant or reimbursements. Beyond mileage it's a full vehicle manager: fuel & EV-charging logs, maintenance/insurance/inspection reminders, and an unlimited multi-vehicle garage (cars, motorcycles, scooters, EVs).

B — Why it's different (vs MileIQ, Everlance, Driversnote)

• 100% on-device / private — GDPR-compliant by architecture, not by promise. Every big tracker uploads your location history to their servers; Magica keeps it on your iPhone. No cloud, no data mining.
• One-time Lifetime option — most alternatives are subscription-only.
• CarPlay + CarPlay Ultra with Live Activities — trip data and stats on your dashboard.
• Way more than mileage — fuel/consumption stats, worldwide EV charging maps (Open Charge Map) + EV route planner, maintenance deadlines, toll costs, CO2 & driving-style analysis, weather, Apple Watch, widgets, voice commands, GPX/KML/CSV export.
• Auto Switch — recognizes which vehicle you're driving via Bluetooth/BLE/iBeacon and switches automatically.
• Actively maintained for 8+ years by one person, with fast support (I answer emails myself).

C — Cost

Free to download. Premium via in-app purchase:

• Monthly: $3.99
• Yearly: $14.99
• Lifetime: $69.99 (one-time)

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mileage-car-tracker-magica/id1341304115 Website + Privacy Policy + Terms: https://www.magica-app.com

Happy to answer anything — and I'd genuinely love feedback on what's missing compared to the tracker you use today.

Hi all,

Like many of you, I like to use my notes app to track my workouts. I've been working out for over 15 years now, but could never get myself to consistently use an app of excel spreadsheet.

Despite this I wanted to see my progress on a graph, I wanted the nice data insights these apps gave me.

Being as stubborn as I am, not wanting to change how I tracked my workouts, I made an app to solve my own problem.

What problem does Gym Note Plus solve - (ABC section)

There are many gym apps out there, but Gym Note Plus shines by letting users track workouts using their notes app. Other apps like Hevy and Strong force you into using drop down menus and forms. We're all different, we all write our workout notes differently, but we all want to see progress. This is the problem we solve.

Why is Gym Note Plus better?

No other gym app allows users to just copy and paste from their notes app to track their progress over time. We even let you take a photo of your hand written notes. Our aim is frictionless workout tracking that other gym apps can't do.
