SecretScan
Find passwords and private data hiding in your Photos
What it does
I kept finding screenshots I’d taken “for a minute”—passwords, backup codes, API keys, IDs—still sitting in Photos months later. SecretScan checks for that forgotten sensitive text on your iPhone or iPad. OCR and detection stay on device; nothing from Photos is uploaded. Review matches behind device authentication, then redact a safe copy or delete the original. The free version scans every screenshot; Pro adds other text-heavy photos.

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up. One…
