Products that do what My first iPhone app - Family Matters (using Parse) does
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…

Hi, I built this iOS App that would let parents create profiles for my children, plan their meals, put their meal preferences, recipes, lunchboxes, export the plan to their calendar, and share links to the timetable with others, and of course an AI helping with the plan and recipe . For now it has a free plan and also paid plan. Initially i built this as a web app but then after feedbacks from close people i developed this iOS app. I would really appreciate your feedback.

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!

Hey there, First time posting on HN. We're looking for feedback from parents. We're 2 dads who started working on Dadditude in the midst of covid lockdowns last year. Being a dad can be a long, emotional, draining, and lonely journey. Through our research we learned that dads want to improve their parenting but are too shy to ask for help, and are tired of reading content online written for mums. We set out to fix that and create a platform that would help dads feel seen, validated, and supported. By helping dads, we hope to support moms and partners too, because all parents deserve more…

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!

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

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…

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!

A little background: I'd been throwing this idea around in my head for a while, and finally had some free time between two quarters of school, and decided to make the site. I spent several days over the break laying out the backend for the site, and starting coding, and then the next few weekends finishing it up (and I've been making small changes since then). Where I got the idea: I originally got the idea when trying to look up coupons for some pizza places, and having a lot of trouble finding any that worked at my store since they were all regional, or weekly codes, so I just manually…

Hey everyone, I would like to tell HN about our startup and our first product, an iPad app. HN has helped me a lot through the ups and downs of making a product and I would really like to get feedback from the HN community.

It provides an integrated system for parents to download learning apps, assign them to multiple children according to skill, monitor child performance and get some good insights into how well your child is learning Kiddom strikes the right balance between entertainment and education, and helps parents and teachers…

Hey, I'm an iOS engineer who took on the seemingly mad task of creating a new grocery app in this day and age. Yes, there are plenty out there, but I promise there's a method to my madness. It's born out of a personal need – my wife would rattle off a list of things to buy, and I'd struggle to remember them all. She's not a fan of typing into apps or shared notes, and honestly, neither am I when it's about speed. The epiphany was that all existing grocery apps have an input problem. They're not catering to the way real people communicate about errands. So, I built HoneyDo to solve my own…

As a parent, it's really hard to find good mobile content for your kids. Not only is there an issue with quantity, with over a million apps between iOS and Android, but there's also a quality issue, in that so many of these contain ads, in-app purchases, or content that's not completely kid-friendly (looking at you, fart apps). We're working on the solution to all of this at Famigo - http://www.famigo.com At Famigo, we've built a system to help find and recommend great apps for families. We approach this problem in a lot of different ways: our staff reviews every app on the site, our…

I've always been frustrated with the complexity of todo mobile apps. I use Todoist and Notion to manage my work, for instance, but every time I'm out and about and think of a task I need to capture, the mobile apps feel too complex. Or I might think of a feature to add to a product, but don't want to deal with Linear's mobile web view. So, I built Defer: a simple iOS "capture" app that syncs to your menu bar on your Mac. No signup needed, it all "just works" with your Apple ID. Intentionally simple and lightweight.

My parents got super confused when PhonePe (payment app in India) updated their app overnight. They immediately blamed me for "breaking their phone" lol. I had to spend an hour showing them how to use the new design. Same thing happened with WhatsApp video calls. I realized this is a common problem - we teach our parents tech stuff once, but they forget because they don't practice enough. So I made this tool that lets my parents practice using apps through step-by-step tutorials at their own pace. No one rushing them, no one judging. The goal? Help my parents feel more confident with…
