Hey HN, I built a personal CRM that stores everything in the native iPhone Contacts app instead of another database. The goal was to make the Contacts app I’ve used for years actually useful. I’d love to hear what you think. Especially whether you prefer extending native apps over adopting entirely new tools. Since this is one of the first releases, i would love to get any feedback you have! Alex

This is my try at a iOS Contacts app replacement. I was frustrated by the fact that the default application wasn't showing contact pictures in lists, so I tried to design an app that makes full use of the images. Another issue I had with the default app was the number of taps until finding a contact, so I tried to minimize that too using various approaches: - put most contacted people on the main screen (app also proposes new tiles based on number of interactions) - group contacts (work, family, friends, etc.) then put a group tile on the main screen - search the contact list using T9 (3-4…

Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spreadvk.e... iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-new-elim/id6463781107 We know life can be busy. And we often struggle to make time for the people that matter most to us. According to a Harvard study from 2021, "36% of all Americans [...] feel “serious loneliness.”" [1] We created an app to help people focus on their most personal relationships and guide them through forming more meaningful connections with them, in the hopes to combat the "Loneliness Epidemic". We just…

AppDesk▲90Every morning I'd open App Store Connect in Safari, enter my password for the millionth time, then wait 8 seconds for the dashboard to load and continue fumbling around for what I needed. Everything took too many clicks and way too long to load. I did this for years and got tired of it. Good thing Apple provided API access for all this data. So I finally built the app I wanted, just the way I liked. Fast, keyboard-friendly navigation, data syncs and gets stored only on the local device. Meet AppDesk — a native macOS client built with SwiftUI for App Store Connect. Everything runs locally —…

Monica CRM is a great open source contact manager, but currently there's no official mobile client. I made a simple 'Quick Add' app for Android that works well for me. It might work well for you, too. Get it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.twilam.mon... Why? Adding contacts via the web interface is a little slow for me, because: 1) I live in China, and connections to servers outside China aren't always fast or reliable. 2) I often want to add notes for a new contact, and 3) I sometimes want to add contacts when I have no internet connection,…
