Products that do what iPhone App I've been building is in the store does
Hi! I've been building this app over the course of the last year or so, and we've finally gotten it polished and cleaned up to the point where we feel pretty good about it. The goal of this app is to replace the lists that people keep of all the places they want to go, movies they've had friends mention, and books they want to read. Our goal is to try and make those lists a lot more actionable so people will actually do these things instead of just writing them down. Would love any feedback! https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/onmylist/id561225528?ls=1&mt=8

Hi everyone - I've been working on this automatic journal for a long time. It takes your photos, makes them look nice, and also journals the places you go just by having your phone in your pocket. Would love your feedback!

I actually started it June 2011 to learn iOS, launched it in September, and have been steadily adding features and making improvements. It's something I use every day and I hope other people find it useful. Enjoy!

I've often wondered whether there are any patterns or cycles to my moods so I built a simple iPhone app that occasionally pings me to ask how I'm feeling on a scale of 1 - 10. I also note down what I'm thinking or doing at that moment and automatically grab my location. I use the data to show some basic statistics on how I've been feeling on average over the past three days, past week and since I started tracking. There's also a graph of my moods over time. I'd love to get feedback on whether people would find something like this useful. I'm curious about what other things people would want…

This was my first attempt of making something truly appealing and useful. I've learned a lot and I'm pretty happy with the result. What do you think?

Hi guys, This is my first time building something from scratch so go easy on me. I've always used to-do lists to keep me productive and stave off anxiety (not sure why they work so well for me but they do). I get kinda annoyed at the to-do list apps on the app stores because they move tasks to the bottom of the list when you tick them off. Some people may like that, but it annoys the shit out of me, because I like to feel a sense of progression as I go down through the list over the course of the day. So this was borne out of my frustration really. I also made it browser-based so it's easy…

I've spent around a year building a Facebook, Twitter, MySpace & LinkedIn iPhone app, which aside from the API hell, has been a pretty fun experience! I think it's turned out really nice. It's been a technical challenge to sync not only a single address book, but also your address books on all the social networks, but in hindsight, I'd do it all again. I'd love to know what HN think's of it, the app URL is: http://itunes.apple.com/app/friends-plus-facebook-twitter/id407846513?mt=8&ls=1 Here are some promo codes, not sure how long they will last: WPTA4M99L3YF MR39LWPTKNYT ME346Y3TPNY9…

AppQuu lets you bookmark iPhone apps you find on the web. It puts those apps in a 'Quu' (Queue) for you to browse on your phone. @ankit and I come across a bunch of apps on our computers during the day, but never remember to check them out on our phones. [FYI: full-time, we're working on an awesome (hopefully) app recommendation project.] Anyway, try out AppQuu - maybe you find it useful too.

Hello, here's my first app on the App Store, a week end project I've made with a friend. I had the idea - questionable - and did the UI. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/instatus/id622077531?mt=8&ign-mpt=uo%3D2 (there's also the free version) The concept it's pretty simple, share your thoughts on Instagram, only words on white background so it will seems that your words will float into your friends feed - I suggest to not use any filter! - got already some ideas for future upgrades. I'm giving away 3 code to get the full version, if you want one, just ask! Best, Filippo p.s. This message…

Hi y'all! I am full stack web developer, and recently I started to mess around with Swift. I've been having a lot of fun and I actually build little Countdown app ( I know, how original..), but I just wanted to share it with the world!

I'm a iOS and Mac developer and the thing that mostly bothered me when I first started learning Cocoa programming was the lack of full featured sample code. Now things have changed and more projects have been released, but I still want to do my part. I've already released Color Picker Pro for Mac: https://raw.github.com/oscardelben/Color-Picker-Pro This time I built a copy of the iPhone Calculator which (I hope) will be simple to follow for beginners: https://github.com/oscardelben/iPhoneCalculator I hope this will be useful to people who are learning Cocoa. Feedbacks are very appreciated.

Last week I decided to have a go at building a location based app, using native APIs for both android and iphone, but using a webview to display the content. It came together pretty well I think, still waiting for the ios app store to approve or reject the app. The app sends messages to anyone within 100 metres of you: http://herenow.nolanconsul.com/ I blogged a bit about it here: http://bennolan.com/2014/05/27/herenow-retrospective.html

Me and some friends just released a new app. It is matchmaking tool for thinkers and makers. It's a MVP(Native iOS - https://itunes.apple.com/app/id883667173) We would love some feedback on the app before launching and going into the growth state. You can also read more about our vision here: http://www.makemove.se/ Have a nice one!

Care to share a screenshot and the 'killer feature' of any of your personal, self-built productivity tools? eg. I made my own calendar and money-tracker last year - there are no other users, it makes no money, I have no plans to make it public, but it holds my life together :) http://i.imgur.com/h2keJDg.png GREAT BECAUSE... it tells me how much I'm going to get paid this month. Absolutely no ulterior motive here (ie. I'm not canvassing opinions for a productivity app startup or anything), just interested.

I'm one of the creators of App in Review. My buddy and other creator, Mubs (@mubashariqbal), approves this message. We recently submitted our first app into the Apple app store and began the indeterminate waiting process. There is no visibility into Apple's review process, which is fine because all we want to know is where in the line are we? Even a rough guess would be fine. It was during this waiting process that we had the idea for App In Review. A little site where iOS developers can share the apps they've submitted and how long they've been in the Apple review process. With enough…

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/quotestagram/id592666165?ls=1&mt=8 Quotestagram is an iphone app that let's you easily turn memorable quotes into beautiful images to share on popular social networks. From concept to launch this app took 5 months. It was fraught with difficulties. I didn't know iOS programming. But the app is finally out and I would really love the community's feedback.

i built a heart rate zone training app for runners. ios + apple watch. custom zones, real-time haptics, post-run graphs. all the “smart” stuff you’d expect. but i never talked to a single runner before building it. not even myself lol. started as a thesis → kept building → added features → added a paywall (€4/month!) → launched it → and yeah… no one cared. zero feedback. zero users. just code in the void. i recently made the whole thing free. not trying to “sell” anything now — just seeing if it’s actually useful, and listening this time. curious how others handle this. ever build…

I'd appreciate any comments and critiques on a new site that I just launched - iosframeworks.com While developing an iPhone app, I kept stumbling across amazing frameworks/libraries/classes that my the job much easier, however, I couldn't find a concise listing of what was available. The site currently provides a searchable list of tagged frameworks. My next steps will be: * Allowing users to submit new links * Also cataloging the apps that use the frameworks listed. This will allow visitors to see how the code can be implemented. * Comments and ratings of the frameworks * A blog with…

The app is a simple Form builder for collaborative private group tasks. It includes some sample Templates useful for a family. For e.g., Shopping List, Family Radar, Travel Journal, Football Scorecard, Weight Tracker, etc. The user can create such Forms or customize existing ones with the Builder. My idea was rejected by YC last year, but I went ahead a built it anyway. Let me know your thoughts. Check the website at http://ellarum.com AppStore link: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/family-matters-from-ellarum/id514754911?mt=8 I have made the app free (otherwise $1.99) for a day to let…
