Hey everyone! I’m a solo developer, and I just released Surge, an interval workout timer for Android.

Why I built it: almost every good workout timer I tried was either full of ads or locked the useful features behind a monthly subscription. Paying every month for a timer felt wrong to me. So Surge is a one-time purchase: you pay once and own it forever. No ads, no account, no subscription, and nothing to unlock later.

What it does:

• Voice coach: announces each exercise, “halfway”, “last round” and a 3-2-1 countdown, so you never have to look at your phone mid-set.
• Custom workouts: set work and rest time for every exercise separately, add a warm-up, a cool-down and rest between rounds, and drag to reorder.
• Ready-made routines: Tabata, HIIT, EMOM, the 7-minute workout, plus Pyramid, Boxing rounds, AMRAP, Plank ladder, stretching and mobility.
• Progress: a weekly chart, a 12-week calendar, streaks (with “freezes” so one missed day doesn’t reset you), personal bests and achievements.
• After each workout: rate how hard it was. If a workout feels easy twice in a row, Surge suggests adding a round.
• Works with the screen locked, fully offline, in 11 languages.
• Private: your data never leaves your phone. You can export it to a file or a spreadsheet whenever you want.

It’s on Google Play here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rcom.example.surge_work_time

I’d really love feedback, especially on what’s missing from your workout routine, or anything that feels clunky. I read every comment and I’m actively updating it.

I’m the independent developer of Heart Rate Graph.

What it does: displays your heart rate on an Android phone during exercise, using an external Bluetooth heart-rate sensor.

Features

• Live BPM graph with coloured training zones.

• Time spent in each zone.

• Landscape display for keeping the graph visible during a workout.

• Save a snapshot of your workout graph.

Who it’s for: people who already own a compatible Bluetooth chest strap or armband and want a focused live display on their phone. The sensor must support the standard Bluetooth LE Heart Rate Service. It does not measure pulse with the phone camera.

Cost and privacy: free, no ads, no account. It works locally, without a server.

Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jorgeva.heartrategraph

The image below shows the live graph and the external-sensor requirement.

This app is intended for exercise and is not a medical device.

Es un proyecto personal, sin equipo ni financiación. La mayoría de apps de hábitos solo te enseñan una racha y te hacen sentir mal si la rompes. Momentum se adapta de verdad: detecta tus patrones y reajusta los recordatorios en vez de fingir que la perfección es la única opción. Los hitos están basados en estudios reales de formación de hábitos (día 7, 21, 66 — no números al azar). Sale en Google Play la semana que viene. Si quieres acceso anticipado, comenta y te paso el registro previo en cuanto esté activo.

I've been lifting for a few years, and I've tried a lot of popular workout tracking apps.

Most of them did the basics well, but I kept running into the same frustrations: too many taps to log a set, cluttered interfaces, progress charts that were harder to understand than they needed to be, and having to use separate tools to track how my body was actually changing.

I wanted something simpler. An app that follows my workout instead of making me constantly interact with my phone.

So, as a solo developer, I built Liftora.

Here's what I focused on:

• Guided workout flow — instead of constantly navigating menus and manually managing everything, you move through your sets in real time, and the app follows your pace. Less tapping, more lifting.
• Automatic body fat % estimation (US Navy method) — no expensive body composition scale needed. Enter your body measurements, and Liftora automatically estimates your body fat percentage using the US Navy formula, with different measurements for men and women. It's not a clinical measurement, but it gives you another way to monitor changes over time.
• Body measurement tracking — because the scale doesn't tell the whole story. You might be building muscle and losing fat while your body weight barely changes.
• Clean, modern UI — no overwhelming dashboards or complicated menus. Just the information you need, when you need it.
• Progress charts that make sense — see how your strength and training volume change over time without digging through endless statistics.
• Ready-made workout programs — don't want to spend time building a routine from scratch? Choose a program and start training.
• Exercise videos and muscle information — see how movements are performed and which muscles they target before adding them to your workout.
• Post-workout calorie estimates — get an approximate idea of your energy expenditure after each session.

My goal wasn't to build the app with the longest feature list. It was to make the things people actually use during training easier, while bringing strength tracking and body composition monitoring together.

Track your lifts. Understand your progress. See how your body changes. All in one place.

Try Liftora:

• App Store – Liftora
• Google Play – Liftora

I've been using Liftora for my own workouts, but I'd really like to hear from people who aren't me.

What's the one thing that frustrates you most about your current workout tracking app?

And if you try Liftora, I'd genuinely appreciate your feedback — especially on the guided workout flow and body fat calculator.

I'm building this independently, so feedback directly influences what I improve next.

App Name: GearGenius

One-Line Description: A car maintenance tracker that gives your car one health score out of 100, a service schedule, and reminders before small jobs turn expensive.

- A schedule built around your car and mileage, with reminders while there is still time to book.

- Fuel log with the real cost per month and per mile.

- Reads fault codes and live sensor values through a Bluetooth LE OBD-II adapter.

- Genie, a built-in AI assistant that already knows your car's age, mileage and what is overdue.

Additional Notes: I'm the solo developer. It launched to iOS on 23rd of September, to Android on 2nd of October and works in 8 languages. Happy to answer questions here.

Hi everyone,

I have just launched A List, an Android app designed for those moments when you meet a celebrity but have no paper or pen with you.

You can take or upload a photo, collect their autograph directly on your phone, and record the signing moment to help prove authenticity. It works fully offline when needed, and includes an editor for customising the photo, signature, layout, frame and text.

It is a brand new app, so I would be incredibly grateful if anyone would be willing to try it and share some honest feedback. If you enjoy it, an honest Google Play review would also really help.

You can download it here: A List Download Android

Thanks so much, and please let me know what you think

As the title suggests if your a cycler and hate subscriptions I’d love for you to check this out and let me know what you think.

Android in testing at the moment :)

Expedition: Field Recovery is an iPhone game (iOS 18 or later) that you play by walking around. Walk somewhere, tap Explore, and see what the ground gives up: mostly gold, sometimes an artifact, and once in a long while a precious gem. The Professor takes a few days to work out what you found, and identified pieces fill the wings of The Museum in London. https://www.expeditionfieldrecovery.com/

I got tired of tracking double progression in my notes, so I made an app for it. You log your sets and it tells you what to do next time: more reps, or more weight once you hit the top of the range.

It can also build you a plan based on your equipment and how many days you train. Works in kg or lb.

Logging is free, no ads, no account needed.

Android only for now: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lanco.skilltree

Any feedback is welcome, good or bad.

Just cross-posting this!

Hey everyone! I'm the solo developer of Quiet Grids, a Picross style Nonogram game for Android that I've been working on for more than 8 months.

I've been making quite a few improvements, and one of the biggest changes recently has been adding 5 different themes— Walnut, Smoked Glass, Porcelain, Indigo Linen, and Terracotta.

Each has its own colors and subtle interface sounds. I've attached a video showing the new looks.

The game also has nearly 1,500 puzzles, 5×5 / 10×10 / 15×15 boards, Daily puzzles, and Guided and Classic solving styles.

🎁 I'm giving away Lifetime Premium codes.

If you'd like one, give Quiet Grids a try and share some honest feedback:

1. Which theme do you prefer for solving Picross puzzles?
2. Is there anything about the colors or board readability you'd change?
3. What else would make the gameplay more enjoyable?

Positive or negative, I genuinely appreciate all feedback. I'll DM you a Google Play Lifetime Premium code as a thank you. ❤️

Hi! I’m Ravi. I built GymTribe because I was tired of juggling one app for food, another for workouts, and WhatsApp for my trainer.

It’s live on Google Play and I’m looking for honest feedback from people who track food or lift:

• Snap a meal for an AI calorie and macro estimate (you review it), or use barcode or catalog
• 600+ exercises, routines, supersets and PR alerts
• A morning brief written from your own logs
• Sleep and steps via Health Connect
• Trainer mode: trainers invite clients and review meals in the same app

What I’d love to know:

1. Was the first 5 minutes clear, or did you get lost anywhere?
2. Which part of logging felt like too much work?
3. What would make you switch from what you use now?

Free plan available. Android only for now.

I’ll reply to every comment. Thanks!

Hi there,

How is everyone doing?

I’ve got an app on the App Store, with one more on the way, attached are the App Store, and TestFlight links respectively:

As an indie developer, feedback like this is what makes all the effort worthwhile. ❤️

I created HydroSense with a simple goal: to help people achieve there hydration goal and balance there life.

Knowing that it’s genuinely helping people build healthier digital habits means so much more to me than the revenue ever could. This is why I keep building. 🚀

Try it : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hydrosense.app

Solo iOS app. I kept losing track of filter changes and warranty dates, so I built ApplianceMark.

Log each appliance, log filter changes, get one morning reminder when something's due. Free for 3 appliances.

Would love blunt feedback if you try it:

hey, I'm the solo dev behind Cheetah. I started looking into signing up for my first HYROX and went looking for an app to train with.

I tried basically every gym app. The pattern was the same: a nice logger, and then a paywall the second you want more than a few routines, your history or a custom workout. You end up paying a monthly sub for what's basically a fancy notes app.

I was actually building something else: a training app for people doing their first hybrid race (HYROX-style: 8 × 1 km runs, each with a station like sled push or wall balls). But to make that work I had to build a real workout logger and builder anyway. So I made a call: that part is free. No routine limits, no ads.

It has logging (lifting, runs, stations in race units), building your own workouts, the Apple Watch app, friends, etc.

My paid tier is only for race plans for full gym, home dumbbells or no equipment (plus doubles, relay and 40+ versions), the AI coach, whiteboard photo import... mostly things that cost me money to run.

My reasoning: the logger is table stakes, and it felt gross to charge for it. Writing 30+ plans in three equipment versions was the actual work, so that's what I charge for. If you never race, you never have to pay.

If you're training for a race, comment and I'll DM you a code for a free month of the plans.
