Just shipped my first iOS app after 4 months solo.

Wrapped a 4-month solo build and shipped Reflect on iOS last week.

It's a journal app — voice transcription in 10 languages, paper-journal OCR, and AI insights over your own entries (Yearly Narrative, "Ask AI" with citations from your writing).

Stack:

- React Native + Expo SDK 54, EAS Build

- Firebase (Firestore + Cloud Functions on Node 22)

- Gemini via Vertex AI server-side, ADC — no client-side key

- RevenueCat for subs

- Native Apple Watch companion

- ~52 screens, 10 languages (EN/FR/ES/PT/DE/IT/AR/KO/JA/HI)

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6762427801 (Disclosure: my app.)

Happy to answer anything about the architecture, Expo 54 stability, or the server-side Gemini setup.

A few things I'd love this sub's take on:

  1. Vertex AI vs. AI Studio key. I went Vertex + ADC to keep the key off the client. It added boilerplate. Worth it for you, or do you stick with a key behind a proxy?
  2. Apple Watch companion. Has yours actually driven discovery, or is it purely retention?
  3. Cold launch with 0 followers. Beyond ASO, what actually worked for your initial distribution?
  4. Localization. Did shipping in 5+ languages pay off commercially, or would English-only have been fine for early validation?

I built a nicotine pouch rating app because I wanted a real community around pouches and Im looking for beta users.

Hey r/NicotinePouches,

I've been a pouch user for a while and always felt like there was no real home for us online. Reviews seem to be scattered all over the place, word of mouth is everything for brands, and there's no good way to track what you've tried or find your next favorite.

So I built Pouchd! A nicotine pouch rating app. Rate pouches, see what the community thinks, discover new ones. That's the core of it.

We're in early beta right now and looking for real users to put it through its paces. Not looking for people to be nice about it, I just want to know what's broken, what's missing, and what actually works.

If that sounds like something you'd be into, drop a comment or DM me and I'll get you in.

— Nick @ Pouchd

[Test Request] First-time dev needs Android testers for my 18+ AI companion app — 14 days, 1 month free Elite as thanks

Hey everyone!

I'm a first-time app developer, putting my first real app into the world completely solo. I'd genuinely love some help getting it across the finish line.

It's called Haeven, an AI companion app where you create characters, chat, build a real connection, roleplay, send gifts. It's an 18+ / mature app, just so everyone knows up front.

To get Haeven onto the Play Store, Google requires a closed test with 12+ testers over 14 days. If you'd be up for being one of them, here's the deal:

Real talk, patience required. This is my first app. I've worked hard on it, but I'm sure there are still rough edges I haven't seen yet. If something breaks or looks off, please tell me and I'll fix it fast.

What you'd do:

  • Join the closed test on Android (takes a minute)
  • Keep it installed for the 14-day window
  • Use it here and there, and let me know if anything breaks or feels rough

What you get:

  • Free access the whole time you're testing
  • 1 month of Elite *the top tier* free, once the 14-day test wraps. My thank you for sticking it out.
  • I'll gladly test your app back, drop your link

To join: comment or DM me your Gmail address (the one your Play Store uses) and I'll add you to the test. The opt-in link comes right after.

Android only for now. Thank you so much 💜

Promote your ‘app solution’ in my web app (free)

You need to mention:

  • What problem you’re solving
  • Your product name
  • Link

My goal is to build a problem-solution network where it's easy for developers to see problems and what's already built for it. This will also give credits to people posting problems, as the ones who initiated a solution.

I would love your feedback on the my new home page, it's built to help you consume new ideas, problems, solutions, explore reports, and find what updates builders are publishing. If you have a problem you don't have an answer for, I'm giving away 3 free idea generation (4 monetizable ideas in each generation).

Meridian Passport - Help me improve my social travel tracker app.

I am currently building this app, based on what I was missing from travel apps, social features and compare modes for friends and fellow travelers. I would love some feedback on the overall user experience so I can make it as good as possible.

Meridian Passport is a social travel passport for tracking where you’ve been, where you’re going, and the memories you collect along the way.

Build your travel map, add passport stamps, share updates with friends, and discover other travelers in the community. Prefer to keep it personal? Switch to private mode and use Meridian as your own travel tracker.

Built a privacy-focused vault app — looking for honest feedback

Hey everyone 👋

I've built a privacy-focused vault app called NoxVault and would love honest feedback from other App builders.

The idea started after realizing most “secure storage” apps either:

feel bloated

have terrible UX

or don’t actually prioritize privacy

So I built NoxVault — a private vault app focused on simplicity + security.

Current features:

• Disguise mode - Hides the app name and icon along with the functionality of the app at first sight hiding behind

a full working Calculator, Notepad, Weather app or Files.

• Intruder detection - Captures failed login attempts using the front facing camera and saves them in your vault with date and time stamps

• Decoy vault protection - A second vault completely separate to your main vault that uses a different pin, if you're ever

force to give your pin you simply give the decoy pin which opens a vault with none sensitive files.

• Secure photo/video/file cloud storage

• Private notes

• Hidden contacts

• Clean lightweight UI

Still actively building and improving it, so I’d genuinely love feedback on:

the concept

UI/branding

features

onboarding

or anything that feels unnecessary/confusing

The app is only available on google play at the moment,

App link in comments if anyone wants to try it.

I can’t find any beta testers!

Where would you promote an early-stage beta for a crypto-related app without immediately destroying trust?

Only reason I ask is because crypto already has a massive skepticism/trust barrier, so I feel like overly aggressive promotion instantly hurts credibility.

Curious where indie founders/builders have actually found quality early testers without coming across spammy.

[Self-Promotion] Your brain is not a debt tracker, so I built a simple one

Your brain is not a debt tracker.

If you’re always covering food, tickets, rides, or random shared costs, it’s way too easy to forget who paid and who hasn’t.

Owemint keeps it simple:

who owes you who you owe how much is left what it was for what’s already settled

Just a personal place for the money stuff between you and other people.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/owemint-debt-tracker/id6766531100

If you have any feedback or bug reports, you may send them through the support button inside the app settings.

If you have any questions, feel free to comment.
