    Squair▲162

    I built Squair because my phone was giving me anxiety - and it was also the only thing in my pocket when anxiety hit. The problem: 4 cups of coffee just to focus. Then the anxiety kicks in. Chest tight. Racing thoughts. Scrolling reels to "calm down" made it worse. I Googled "anxiety relief" at 2am and found box breathing — same technique Navy SEALs use in combat. First time I tried it, I felt the difference within 2 minutes. No crash. No pills. Just breathing. So I built an app around it. 6 months. Solo dev with a full-time job. 112 builds. 2 App Store rejections. Finally live. What it…

    Hi there, EndurePath has been my main project over the past few months, and I’d love to get feedback from the HN community. The main focus of this application is to improve your mood in a moment and help you to keep it as positive as it can be in your circumstances. For those reasons I’ve added simple mood tracking, tiny tasks, and to keep you engaged personal companion with AI insights. Disclaimer: it’s NOT your personal psychologist or complex application with tasks that cure your past traumas and I don’t have plans to add complex tasks, since there better alternatives that already exists.

    Hey HN, I've had this idea stuck in my head ever since I published Year in Pixels [1]. I've been adding a little thing here and there to this app, and now it feels nice enough to share. It's very interesting what daily tracking does to one's mind. While I already have apps to track everything else like sleep, heart rate, etc., I was still missing something to track my mood. The simple act of thinking about how you feel a couple of times a day already changes things. A moment of reflection. I opted to add Astrology, Checks (habits), and other goodies. Hope you like it as much as I do. Best,…

    I initially released this as just an IOS app. Since then it has been growing steadily but a lot of people have emailed asking for a web / android version. It took me nearly 2 months to build a version for the web. The nice thing about using Convex as my backend is that all the data is always synced between the app and web. I do not have to setup any syncing logic. The moment you change something in the app, it will reflect on the web version in realtime. I know there are loads of these kind of tools online but it's starting to feel like mine is actually starting to differentiate itself…

    I had really bad health anxiety the last 2 years that severely impacted my quality of life. I started using Claude for support and was surprised by how much it helped. I realised how much potential there is for LLMs to provide an objective perspective on stressful thoughts - so I built an app that helps you form a habit around this to reduce long term anxiety. You vent what's on your mind and an LLM will evaluate your thoughts objectively (heavily leaning on CBT techniques), to help you maintain a more balanced perspective. Technical stack: - Flutter (to release cross-platform) - OpenAI API…

    Hi HN! I’m back with my 2nd app, still built with @FlutterFlow, and powered by Gemini (switching it up from ChatGPT this time!). The inspiration was simple: I love the emotional depth of Inside Out and the addictive, clear progress of Duolingo’svertical roadmap. I wanted to merge them into something that makes self-reflection feel like a journey rather than a chore. Introducing: Letsfancy Joy Vertical Roadmap: Log and review your emotional history on a single, continuous path—not another calendar of faces. The Emotion Pill: Each emotion has a "Pill" with varying intensity. As we say: "The…
