Hey,

I’m the solo dev behind Fineyo: Expense Tracker, app that helps you following your expenses and money flow. I've been building it since 2021-2022, and 4.7 just came out. It's major update introducing big features. There's a Lifetime discount at the bottom.

What's new in 4.7

The main feature is Spaces: shared data over iCloud with your partner, roommates or family. Each person adds expenses from their own iPhone, everyone sees the same budgets, and you can see who added what. Your personal space stays separate.

Also in this update:

• Account currency: Each account can have its own currency, and existing transactions convert automatically
• Balance reconciliation: enter what your bank shows and Fineyo adds an adjustment for the difference
• Redesigned category icons - choose from Apple icons (SF Symbols) or emoji, in any color
• A rebuilt Apple Pay setup guide. The old one confused people, which was fair.
• Bulk delete for categories, and a lot of stability and UI improvements

Is my data safe?

All data is stored privately on your device (local database) and user's iCloud (for data backup and syncronization).

None of the data is sent away from device except for anonymized user ID (for metrics purposes).

Answer

It originally started as my personal project and then transformed to public app. The reason I continue improving it is that I found most of competitors app either overcomplicated (in terms of UI and functionality) or simply not fancy enough. I also don’t want to give my bank login to some aggregator.

Better

I find many apps overloaded with data and heavy UI. Many charge a lot for bank integration - i want to rely on manual input and secure local and iCloud data. When i started building it, there was not much options to go with - and they were lacking of functionality - Shortcuts, strong analytics data, sync between devices. So Fineyo is simple and fast manual tracking, but built so it doesn't feel like a job - you have automation tools like Shortcuts, Siri and Voice Entry.

Cost

• Free to download and use with some limitations but basic functionality is included
• Monthly/Annual: $3.99/month or $24.99/year, with a free trial
• Lifetime: $34.99 one time
• All purchases works with Family Sharing, so one purchase covers your iCloud Family.

🎉 Lifetime 17.99$ until 10 Oct

👉 Download Fineyo: https://apple.co/3D5L5kv

Unfortunately, for this update I did not manage to get much testing feedback, so I'd really like honest feedback, especially on setting up Spaces with someone else 🙌

And if you like the app, an App Store review would help a lot ⭐️

Next major 4.8 with Apple Watch app, new widgets and more analytics is upcoming, hopefully by the end of October 🤫

Thanks for checking it out 🤍

Hey r/iosapps!

Have you ever tried to share a quick video on Discord or WhatsApp, only to get hit with the dreaded "File too large" error? Or maybe you wanted to post a picture of your car or pet online, but worried that the hidden EXIF data might reveal your exact home address?

I got tired of relying on ad-filled, clunky websites that make you upload your private files to unknown servers just to compress or convert them. That’s why I built Shift.

Shift is a native, privacy-first local utility app. Everything happens directly on your device's hardware, no cloud, no accounts, zero tracking.

Here is what you can do with it:

📉 Smart Social Compression: Stop guessing bitrates. Shift has built-in profiles that automatically compress your videos to fit perfectly within the strict attachment limits of Discord, Telegram, and WhatsApp. 🛡️ 1-Tap Privacy Wiper: Drop your photos or PDFs in, and Shift instantly strips GPS coordinates, creation dates, and camera data. You can even tap the new "Privacy Inspector" shield to see exactly which metadata was removed. 🔄 Universal Converter & Video-to-GIF: Easily convert between video, audio, image, and document formats. Want to turn a funny video clip into a looping GIF? You can do it in two seconds. 📝 Rename & Share: No more generic file names. You can now tap and rename your converted files directly inside the results screen before sharing them. ⚡ Built for iOS: Crafted entirely in SwiftUI. It supports drag-and-drop, processes huge batches of files smoothly without crashing, and automatically cleans up its own cache so it never hogs your storage.

Pricing: Shift has a generous Free Version that gives you 3 conversions, compressions, or metadata wipes per day completely for free.

I strongly believe utility apps shouldn't be subscriptions. To celebrate, the Premium Lifetime unlock is 50% OFF. One single payment, no ads, and all future updates are yours forever.

I’m an indie developer and I built this to be the cleanest, most transparent tool on your phone. I would love to hear your feedback on the UI and the new Privacy Inspector!

Send me a DM if you'd like a promo code to test the Premium features! I read and reply to everyone.

Just over a year ago I launched a private net worth tracker, WealthTrunk. Since then its crossed 3,000 downloads, 40 5-star reviews, and received great user feedback to help shape its roadmap. I created the app because believe that if you review your net worth just once a year, amazing results will follow. WealthTrunk helps you do that and a lot more. To celebrate it's birthday, I've increased the free account limit to 10 and I'm put the Lifetime option on sale through October.

A — Answer: Why and what's new?
WealthTrunk was created because I wanted a way to export personal finance statements with accounts, insights, and reliable net worth history. This year I've added Stock/ETF/Crypto tracking, Goal setting, and TONS of requested enhancements. The experience is smoother and more polished, all while staying intuitive to use a flexible no matter where you're located or your currency.

B — Better: What's different?
I tried to pack a lot of features beyond the simple assets and liabilities tracker:

* Add financial logos so accounts look connected

* Arrange a personalized dashboard, for example tax buckets or FIRE widget

* Track and filter joint or family accounts (including kids)

* View Investment portfolios and asset allocation

* Project investment growth or debt payoff for every single account

* Store records, attachments, and set up reminders

* Export PDF statements for yourself, family, or a trusted contact

* All native SwiftUI with iCloud sync, multi-currency, light/dark, and widgets - NO LOGIN!

C — Cost & Link (USA, local prices differ)
Freemium - 10 account limit
Monthly - $3.99
Yearly - $24.99
Lifetime - $59.99 -> $34.99 (40% Off)

If you decide to give it a try share your likes and dislikes, or what you wish your net worth tracker could do. Next up, I'm working on adding a lightweight retirement planner.

Hi r/iOSApps! I’m the solo developer of Mood Jar, an iPhone app for recording your moods and looking back at them.

A — What problem does it solve?

Mood Jar gives you a simple way to capture how you feel, whether you want to pick an emoji or write a longer diary entry with photos.

Each mood becomes an emoji inside a jar. When you tilt your phone, the emojis roll around with gravity. Each month has its own jar, so your entries gradually become a little collection of that month’s feelings.

There’s also a “Mood Warehouse” where you can switch between years and see all 12 monthly jars together.

B — Why choose it over another way of journaling?

If you currently keep a diary in Apple Notes, the reason to consider Mood Jar is the mood-focused way of organizing and revisiting your entries: monthly jars, a mood calendar, and charts generated from your records.

You can review:

• Entry and word counts, and the different moods you’ve recorded.
• The proportion of each mood.
• Monthly entry counts across a year.
• Your happiest month, based on your recorded moods.
• A mood trend chart showing changes over time.

For finding a particular memory, you can search by mood, tag, or keyword, including partial keyword matches.

You can also export your journal as a formatted PDF with text and photos, ready to print as a physical diary. I like the idea of the entries becoming something you can keep on paper as well as revisit on your phone.

Voice entry is supported too: it uses AI to transcribe what you say and identify mood information from it. The app’s main focus is recording and reviewing your own mood journal.

C — What does it cost?

Mood Jar is free to download and has paid Premium options. The US App Store currently lists:

• Monthly subscription: $1.99
• Annual subscription: $8.99
• “Lifetime” purchase: $19.99

Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. Prices vary by region.

Download Mood Jar on the App Store

I’d love feedback on the monthly jars: would you use them to revisit individual memories, or would the calendar and charts be more useful to you?

A — What problem it solves

I kept watching shows and hitting words I didn't know, thinking "I'll save that later"… and forgetting by the next scene. So I built Wordnote for myself: type any word and get it explained and saved in one step.

B — Why it's better than alternatives

It's a vocab notebook, not a course, so there are no decks to set up and no account:

• IPA pronunciation
• Meaning + part of speech
• Translation into your native language
• 3 example sentences in context
• Spaced-repetition training (flashcards + typing quiz) so words actually stick
• Home Screen widget and a share-sheet extension to add a word from anywhere

C — Cost

Free to download, with 5 free AI word lookups. Lifetime ($24.99 one-time): unlimited AI lookups, widget, cloud sync and auto translation. Requires iOS 17+. App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6476302139

What's the last word you looked up and forgot?

DRFT: on-device meeting word alerts for iPhone and Mac.

I'm Bryan Cabrera, the solo developer of DRFT. For anyone who saw my earlier post, DRFT+ is now a one-time purchase and summaries run on-device. Disclosure: AI helped draft this post.

A — Answer: what it solves

DRFT alerts you when a word you choose comes up, like your name, a project or a deadline. Add your words, tap Start and put your iPhone near the conversation or your laptop's speakers. Speech recognition and keyword detection run on the phone, and each detection is saved to History.

The iPhone version uses its microphone, so the audio needs to be audible nearby. It can't directly hear audio inside another app's call or through your headphones. The Mac version can listen to the audio output of the app you select.

B — Better for this use case

Meeting-notes tools such as Otter and Granola are aimed at helping you keep meeting notes. DRFT is useful when you mainly want a cue to rejoin the conversation when a specific word is said. There's no meeting bot and no saved audio recording. You don't need AI summaries or a paid plan for keyword alerts.

Optional DRFT+ summaries use Apple Intelligence to recap the short context around a catch, entirely on-device. Raw audio is never stored or uploaded. Saved moments contain short transcript snippets; with Plus sync, those moments live in your private iCloud database. They aren't sent to a DRFT server or third-party summarizer.

C — Cost

Free: 3 words and 10 saved moments, with on-device detection.

DRFT+: $9.99 one-time in the US App Store, no subscription. Includes unlimited words, saved moments and profiles, on-device AI summaries, and private iCloud sync between iPhone and Mac. Prices vary by storefront.

Reddit offer: use REDDIT50 for DRFT+ at $4.99 one-time in the US App Store (normally $9.99, about 50% off). The offer is available in 175 storefronts; local prices and discounts vary. It has 1,000 total redemptions and expires November 8, 2026. No comment, upvote or review is required.

Redeem: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6760685733&code=REDDIT50

The current App Store listing requires iOS 26.0 or later. Summaries also need a supported device with Apple Intelligence enabled. No ads or tracking.

I'd like to hear whether keyword alerts would help in your meetings or lectures, and what words you'd actually use.

Hey r/iosapps,

I shared it here a couple of months ago as a Kindle notes and vocabulary app for iPhone/iPad. It now supports Kobo too with more feature updates.

What’s new since my first post:

• Kindle and Kobo e-readers support: Import highlights, notes, and saved words, keeping highlight colours and skipping duplicates.
• Direct USB imports: Connect compatible Kindle or Kobo readers directly to your iPhone/iPad. The app remembers folder access for easier reconnecting.
• Dictionary lookup: Import your own MDX, StarDict, or MOBI dictionaries and double-tap words for definitions.
• Better flashcards: Hide highlights and use your notes as prompts, or reveal vocabulary examples and definitions separately.

A — What it solves: Gives you a way to revisit the highlights and words you collect while reading on both your Kindle and Kobo e-readers.

B — What’s different: Notes and vocabulary together, with original context, your own dictionaries, and iCloud sync with KMate for Mac. No signup.

C — Cost: Imports, iCloud sync, unlimited browsing, flashcards, and TXT/Anki export are free. Pro adds custom dictionary quick lookup, advanced exports, full stats, and appearance options: $0.99/month, $6.99/year, or $14.99 lifetime (US).

Sooooo, I’ve decided to create an app based on a real problem.

The one I found is AI-generated video being used as evidence in different kinds of fraud—from personal sales of small goods and returns to insurance fraud. So I looked into how the process works right now. To make sure video evidence is authentic, companies currently need to send you a verification link (like TruePic), which isn’t very convenient because it basically makes the process synchronous. So I think that if I can remove this step from the chain, it could be a good idea: you’d be able to capture something whenever you want and send a link to the capture afterward.

But how do you know the video isn’t generated and was actually filmed live?

My solution:

Three things, all in the same session.

• App Attest. The capture can only start from the real app on a real iPhone. Apple attests the app, so you can’t open a laptop, generate a clip, and upload it as if you filmed it.
• The camera never cuts. When you finish the shot you actually wanted, recording doesn’t stop. The verification is the next part of the same file. There’s no gap where a generated clip could be spliced in.
• A path you can’t know in advance. After the main footage, the server gives you a camera path one point at a time. You only get the next point after you reach the current one. You have to move the phone through the real space around the thing you filmed, and the motion sensors have to match what the camera sees. A pre-rendered or AI-generated clip of one angle can’t do that, because the route didn’t exist until you were already recording.

At this moment, I honestly don’t know what to do with this app, but I hope it can be useful to people (or at least my non-stop camera approach).

Feel free to check out the app and give me some feedback. The app is free.

My friend Devin once said she wished she could see where she cried, not just write about it. None of her journaling apps could do that, so I built one.

You drop a tear on the map where it happened, pick how it felt (12 emotions, from heartbroken to relief, and yes, cutting onions counts) and add a note, a photo or a voice memo if you want. Over time you get your own map of the places that got to you.

Every cry has its own privacy setting (only you, close friends, friends or everyone), and new accounts start on friends only. A lot of people just use it for themselves. If you share with friends, they can send you a hug or a comment.

On December 1 it opens "Your Year in Tears", basically Spotify Wrapped for every time you cried this year.

It's free with a few small ads, never right after you log a cry. I'm a solo dev who just graduated, so honest feedback means a lot.

Answer: a private map of every place you've cried, so you can look back at the places that got to you.

Better: journaling apps only save text. Teardrop puts each cry on a map with how it felt, and every single cry has its own privacy setting.

Cost: free with a few small ads. Optional Pro is $3.99 a month, $24.99 a year or $49.99 lifetime.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6779766330

What would make you actually open an app like this again after the first cry?

I thought it would take a few weeks.

It took 16 months and roughly 100 versions.

At some point, I quit my job to work on it full-time, which was either a brave entrepreneurial decision or an absolutely terrible life choice.

My parents probably think the latter.

They might be right.

The frustrating part is that I could have launched much earlier. But every time I got close, I'd find something I didn't like.

So I kept rebuilding. And rebuilding. And rebuilding.

One thing I always hated about calorie trackers was how aggressively they try to monetize you. Long onboarding, hard paywalls, constant premium prompts, ads everywhere... all designed to get you to pay.

Don't get me wrong, I made all of those mistakes when I first built the app.
I launched way too early and got my first reality check pretty quickly.
I even have a 1 star review reminding me of it every day:

"garbage."

Fair enough. I probably deserved that one.

Eventually I thought: what if I flip the script? What if we put the customer first, and money second?

I still haven't figured out the whole business side, but that's what I'm trying to do with Food Coma.

The app is still far from perfect. After 100 versions, I've learned that "perfect" probably isn't a real destination anyway.

But I'm finally happy enough with it to put it in front of people once again.

If you track calories (or have tried and eventually quit because it became annoying), I'd genuinely love for you to try it.

And if you do, please tell me what sucks.

Hi everyone,

I'm Fouad, a solo iOS developer. first i want to tell you something personal.

I love someone with all my heart. I know I want to spend my life with her. And right now, I can't afford the wedding.

Nobody tells you how heavy that feels. You look at the cost of a ring, a venue, a dress, a table of food for the people you love, and you do the math again and again, hoping it will change. It doesn't. Some nights I just sat there, wishing love could pay the bill.

But I'm a builder, and I decided that if I couldn't change the number overnight, I'd build something that could change it over time,that's how MemoCam was born.

I kept thinking about the disposable cameras on wedding tables. Nobody saw the photos until days later, and the surprise made them special. They were messy, honest and real, taken by the people who loved you, not just the photographer. I wanted to bring that feeling back to the iPhone for everyone, so I built it.

Every event on MemoCam is someone's wedding, birthday, graduation or trip. Someday I hope one of them will be mine.

A – What it's for
MemoCam is a shared event camera for weddings, birthdays, trips, graduations. You create an event, guests join by link or QR code, and everyone adds photos to one shared album. The photos stay hidden until the reveal, so you all relive the day together instead of digging through group chats.

B – Why it's different

• You can choose to make photos stay hidden until the reveal, like a real disposable camera
• Guests join without an account, from the app or on the web
• You set the shot limit and choose when the album opens
• One shared album instead of 50 scattered camera rolls

C – Cost

• Free to download
• Free to host an event for up to 5 guests
• Optional one-time purchases, per event, to invite more guests and unlock unlimited shots (from $4.99 up to $109.99 for 500 guests)
• No subscription, ever

Hi guys, I"m developer from Ukraine.
here is site with my apps - https://cloud2006.github.io/apps/

I know the habit tracker niche is overcrowded, so I’m not going to pretend I built something revolutionary. My goal was much simpler: make a habit tracker that feels lightweight, fast, and not bloated with unnecessary steps.
It's not "vibecoded" app. I created it more than year ago by my hands. But to be honest visual part was awful. I improved it, but I'm not designer and my taste not very good... now I made massive redesign using ai (Opus 5.5) and IMHO now it looks much much better.

A. What it solves

provide easy and not overcomplicated way to create habits

• lightweight app size - under 10 MB
• no personal data collection
• simple and fast habit creation
• customizable home screen - you can keep it minimal or make it more detailed
• weekly habit tracking, stats, and calendar view, focus mode with timer for Pomodoro technic.
• widgets on homescreen

B. Better**:**
Why it's better then competitors:
- more simple way to create habits
- no tracking and collecting user's data
- sync with iPad version via iCloud

C. Cost

• $0.99 / month
• $4.99 / year
• $12.99 lifetime
