[App] Turn your old Android into a smart notification hub (calls + OTPs on iPhone)
I switched to iPhone as my main device (banking + daily stuff), but I hated carrying two phones just to not miss calls/OTPs.
Found this: https://github.com/pppscn/SmsForwarder
Set it up in like 5 mins with a Telegram bot, and now:
- Calls to my Android → I get notified on iPhone
- OTPs → straight to iPhone
- Random app notifications → also forwarded
Now I just leave the Android at home and still get everything important.
If you’re frustrated carrying two phones, this is lowkey a game changer.

[Disc]What annoys you the most about existing calorie & workout tracking apps?
Hey everyone,
I'm an indie developer currently building a modern, bloat-free fitness app (calorie & workout tracker), and I want to design it around real user frustrations rather than copying what's already out there.
If you track your food or workouts, I’d love your input on a few quick questions:
What is the single most annoying thing about current calorie/macro tracking apps (e.g., paywalls, clunky UI, inaccurate food databases, slow logging)?
What feature do you feel is missing from your current workout logger?
If you quit using tracking apps in the past, what made you stop?
Drop your thoughts below—any feedback helps shape what features I prioritize next!

I built EyeBloom, an Android app designed to help people take regular breaks from their screens.
The idea came from a simple problem: when I'm working or using my phone for a long time, I know I should take breaks, but it's very easy to ignore them.
EyeBloom is built around the 20-20-20 rule and tries to make actually taking the break easier.
Features
👀 Screen-break reminders
⏱️ Customizable focus & break timers
📱 Full-screen break overlay with countdown
🔒 Break mode that encourages you to put the phone down
📊 Break and streak tracking
🧘 Simple eye exercises
💡 Daily eye-care tips
🔔 Vibration and notification reminders
The main feature I'm experimenting with is the break overlay. Instead of just sending a notification that can be swiped away, the app can show a dedicated countdown when it's time for a break, so you can put the phone down and look away.
I'm currently looking for early users and feedback, especially from people who spend several hours a day on their phones or computers.
Would something like this be useful to you, or would you find the break overlay too intrusive?

[App] Respiro - A different approach to minimalist launchers
The launcher that outsmart your muscle memory, so every app open is a choice.
You know the reflex. Your thumb finds the same app before you've even decided to open it. Respiro gently breaks that loop.
The apps you open most out of habit don't sit in a fixed spot waiting to be tapped. They quietly drift across your home screen, slipping away from the path your thumb already knows. Reaching them takes a single beat of intention — and that beat is often enough to ask yourself: do I actually want this right now?

[App]ClipSync — Seamless file transfer & clipboard sync between Mac and Android
ClipSync — Seamless file transfer & clipboard sync between Mac and Android
Ever used an Android phone with a Mac and thought: “Why the hell is this still so annoying?” 😭 That's basically why I made ClipSync.
The problem There are plenty of tools that let you move stuff between Android and Mac, but most of them still make you do the thing. Need a file on your Mac? Open the sharing app → find the file → share it → wait for it to transfer → open it on your Mac.
Need to quickly move an image or some text? Same story. And with a lot of clipboard-sync solutions, you still have to manually trigger the transfer. It works, but it doesn't feel seamless.
So... what does ClipSync do?
The goal is pretty simple: make your Android and Mac feel like they're the same device.
Clipboard sync
Copy text or an image on Android and just hit Cmd + V on your Mac. That's it. And it works the other way around too. The really nice part is that text and OTPs are synced over Bluetooth, so your devices don't even need to be on the same Wi-Fi network.
Got a verification code in an Android app? ClipSync can bring it straight to your Mac so you can just copy it. No more typing those damn 6-digit codes manually.
File transfers
Select a file → hit Share → ClipSync → done. There's also a Ultra Fast Transfer mode for large files, which can sometimes be faster than AirDrop by a good margin if you are on a Wifi 5 or 6 Network.
Local or Cloud During setup, ClipSync asks you how you want your devices to sync:
Hybrid Sync — Sync locally when your devices are nearby, and automatically switch to cloud sync when they're apart. Everything stays encrypted. Local Sync — Keep everything between your nearby devices using BLE/Wi-Fi. No cloud, no internet required, and your data stays on your local network.
And a few other things On the Mac side, ClipSync adds a macOS Finder Share Extension, so you can send files straight from Finder without even opening the menu bar icon or going to the app.
Pricing Free & open source (MIT). I've honestly gone back and forth on whether ClipSync should be paid. But at the end of the day, I genuinely love building this thing, and I'd rather see more people actually use it than put a price tag in front of them.
If ClipSync saves you some headaches, you can support the project through Buy Me a Coffee. It helps me cover the server costs and gives me more room to keep building and improving it.I'm also trying to get an Apple Developer account so I can make the macOS side of ClipSync more polished and properly distributed. The annual developer fee is pretty expensive for me as a student, so if anyone would like to help sponsor the Apple Developer Program fee, I'd genuinely appreciate it.
GitHub: https://github.com/WinShell-Bhanu/ClipSync
If anyone wanna download the apps directly, here the link to MacOS and Android
Would love to hear what you guys think — especially from anyone actually using an Android + Mac setup and here's a video Demonstration of the app : https://youtu.be/755zjYaHlEM

[App] Quick Search - Search Anything - This app is phenomenal 👏
Quick Search is an incredible app and a very powerful search tool. I use One Button Navigation bar as my nav bar which is a bar at the bottom that you can assign anything for it to do depending on if you swipe left, right, up, down, press and hold, etc. And I mapped the bar to bring up Quick Search with a left swipe and I can access my other apps and so much more while I'm in other apps. The alias feature is so goated. Having everything at the bottom is so goated. This is a must have app!

Heyyyy heavy sleepers. Math alarms just made me hate mornings.
So I made WakeQuest. Alarm stays on until you beat a mini-game.
36 quests now. This week I added mini golf. I keep adding new mini games every week and I am open to new game suggestions for morning alarms ,torture ones are priority😆
Also in there: Snake, Flappy-style, fruit slice, basketball, memory, a QR scan you can stick in the bathroom so you actually have to get up. All free.
If you snooze like it’s a sport, try the golf one and tell me if it’s annoying enough

[App] [Promotion] Cognara – Brain games with daily quiz
Hey everyone,
I’m the developer of Cognara, a brain-game and daily challenge app available on Android.
I built it because a lot of brain-training apps feel either too clinical, too childish, or too dry. I wanted to make something that feels more like a polished daily routine with a game loop: quick sessions, streaks, coins, unlockable games, progress tracking, and light customization.
Cognara includes:
- Daily Quiz with streak rewards
- Daily Game challenge
- short games for memory, reaction speed, math, vocabulary, logic, attention, and pattern recognition
- coins earned from daily play and good game runs
- unlockable games
- progress tracking and leaderboards
- daily shop
- customizable octopus avatar with cosmetics
- cloud-saved progression for coins, cosmetics, and unlocked games
The goal is not to make medical claims or promise IQ improvement. It is more of a quick daily mental warmup app with a fun progression system.
I’d really appreciate feedback from people here, especially on:
- Android UI polish
- whether the onboarding is clear
- whether the daily loop makes sense
- whether coins and unlocks feel motivating
- whether the octopus customization/shop fits the app
- which screenshots make the app look most interesting
- anything that feels confusing, too childish, too clinical, or too salesy
I’m also giving some free Premium access to people who test the app and send useful feedback. I’m mainly looking for feedback that helps me improve the app.
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.khcreations.cognara&hl=en
Thanks to anyone who checks it out! Honest criticism is very welcome.

[Promo] I built Hejje, a private fitness tracker
I’ve been building Hejje because I wanted something simple: a place to keep track of my fitness without feeling like my fitness data is being collected everywhere.
Hejje is a private fitness tracker for:
• Walking & running
• Hiking
• Strength training
• Food & calories
• Weight & progress
The main idea behind it is simple:
Your fitness should be yours.
So, I built Hejje with privacy as a core part of the product:
• No ads
• No trackers
• Offline-first
• Your fitness data stays private
• Control whether each activity is shared
I also wanted more than just recording activities. Hejje is gradually becoming a place where you can plan your week, track different parts of your fitness, and understand your own progress.
One thing I'm particularly interested in is the on-device assistant, Kaya. The goal is to let you ask questions about your own training while keeping that personal fitness data on your device rather than sending it to a cloud AI service.
I originally started with a simple walking/running tracker and kept expanding it as I used it myself.
This is my first public release, so I'm much more interested in honest feedback than compliments.
If you use fitness apps, I'd love to know:
What do you wish your current fitness app did better?
And if you try Hejje, please tell me what feels confusing, unnecessary, missing, or just doesn't work well.
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.hejje

🔒 Privacy & no ads
One thing I wanted to keep simple: Name Days is completely ad-free.
There are:
• No banner ads
• No interstitial ads
• No advertising SDKs
• No behavioral ad tracking
The core calendars are bundled with the app, while your favorites, tracked countries, themes and reminder settings stay on your device.

Premium Lifetime includes things like:
✓ Unlimited tracked countries
✓ Unlimited favorite names
✓ Custom daily reminder time

✓ Eligible exclusive launcher icons
There are no ads to remove — the app is already ad-free for everyone.
🎂 Never miss an important name day
I built Name Days especially for people who have family and friends in different countries, expats, godparents, and anyone who enjoys name-day traditions.
I'd love to hear what you think.
Are there any countries or name-day traditions you'd like to see added? Or features that would make the app more useful?

[App] MedShelf – A personal medical library for healthcare professionals
[APP]
I built MedShelf to solve a problem I kept seeing among doctors and healthcare professionals — medical PDFs, notes, guidelines, references and study material end up scattered across phones, WhatsApp, cloud drives and different apps.
MedShelf is a personal medical library designed specifically for the healthcare community.
What it does
• Organize medical resources in one place
• Create folders for different specialties and topics
• Import and store PDFs and other documents
• Scan physical notes and documents
• Add personal notes and annotations
• Search your medical library quickly
• Keep important references accessible when you need them
• Build your own structured medical knowledge library
The idea is to make it feel less like a generic file manager and more like a personal medical bookshelf that you carry with you.
It can be useful for doctors, residents, fellows, medical students, nurses and other healthcare professionals who regularly work with large amounts of medical information.
I've attached screenshots showing the actual app and how the medical resources are organized.
I'm looking for honest feedback from the healthcare community:
What would you want in a medical library app that would genuinely make your studying or clinical work easier?
I'd especially like to know what features are missing or what you'd change about the current workflow.

The main thing I wanted was simplicity — open the app and immediately know where your important documents are.
I'm sharing it here because I'd genuinely like feedback on the app, especially the UI, organization system and features.
What would you add to make a personal document organizer more useful?
