Squoku
Scan printed Sudoku and keep the solved result
What it does
Squoku turns a printed 9×9 Sudoku into a solved result on iPhone and iPad. Point the camera at the puzzle, review uncertain clues, confirm it has one unique solution, then see missing digits aligned with the original grid. Open a clean completed board, copy it, share it, or find it later in local History. Two solution reveals are included; after that, reveal one puzzle or unlock lifetime access. No subscription, account, or cloud upload.
Point your iPhone or iPad camera at a printed Sudoku. Squoku reads the clues on-device, lets you check the grid, and reveals the solution.
Squoku scans printed puzzles, lets you verify the clues, and solves them privately on your iPhone or iPad. Scanning and solving happen on your device. No account or puzzle upload. Review the clues, reveal the solution, and keep a clean result in on-device History. Your first two solutions are included. After that, reveal the current puzzle once or unlock every future solution. One purchase. No subscription. Solve as many new Sudokus as you like. Reveal the confirmed puzzle in front of you and keep its complete result in local History. Austrian base prices shown. The App Store displays your local price before purchase. Official Squoku accounts for product progress, Sudoku tips, and release…from squoku.app

Hello HN, I've created a new Sudoku app for iOS and Android that prioritizes simplicity and privacy. It's free to download and use, and I'd be grateful for any feedback or suggestions. Features: > 4 difficulty levels, accessible at any time > No personal data collection of any kind > Clean, minimalistic design that focuses on the game > Takes up significantly less space than other popular apps (by a factor of about 10x) > Minimal use of advertisements I was frustrated by how many of the popular Sudoku apps feel excessively over-engineered, consume a lot of storage space and some that even…

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…
