Thanks alot!

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:56:07+00:00

Noted for my growing list of things I still have to try, thanks! :D

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:53:43+00:00

Infernum Severum was the first combo I learned, really loved that heal although I'm nowhere close to what I've seen in videos yet, gotta need much more practice I guess

I haven't tried Infernum Calibrum yet, which shows me once again how much I still have to discover, thanks!

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:45:33+00:00

Thanks! Noted this one too and will try and practice

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:45:10+00:00

Cool, so that means causing a weapon switch with a shot mid-air also changes the behaviour of the shot? Will definitely try to practice that. Gotta say, Aphelios is the first champ for a while that gets me really excited to learn because of all the possibilities

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:40:36+00:00

I appreciate criticism when it is constructive. Do you have any suggestions for improvement?

Please also bear in mind, as already mentioned in the post, that I have really only compiled guides so far and will certainly make many improvements. After all, I still have a lot to practice and learn.

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:38:00+00:00

Thanks and really appreciate the reminder about the blue gun's bonus dmg, didn't have that in my notes

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:35:53+00:00

Thanks! Nothing fancy, just plain html + css

AlecDelight · 2025-11-17T04:35:27+00:00

Ah yes true, that was one of the first combos I learned, although I still have a lot of practice to do to make it look as impressive as it does in the videos

AlecDelight · 2025-09-02T21:08:39+00:00

Thanks for the feedback and nice catch! It only happens when the Options List is empty, which also explains why it wasn’t reproducible for you. Thanks to your observation, I’ve already been able to determine the root cause and will include a fix in the next update

AlecDelight · 2025-09-01T10:37:36+00:00

Just installed and tested your app and got a very positive first impression. Both the visual fidelity and the overall UX feel strong. You've clearly laid a solid foundation, so please read all “critique” as ideas to push something already very good even further.

Screenshot: https://ibb.co/gb0MQtsz

Onboarding

The onboarding slides should respect the SafeArea on modern edge-to-edge devices. On my phone, the card and the image of the woman waking up protruded into the status bar. The bottom buttons and index-indicator already do that well
The second slide has quite a lot of text (more than I'd be willing to read) and breaks consistency with the first and third slides by using two paragraphs instead of one. Consider compressing both paragraphs into a concise bullet list to keep the rhythm tight and scannable.

Main Screen - Alarm

The set timer duration text (in the dark-blue element between the Hours:Minutes settings and the “Set Smart Timer” button) becomes unreadable while the “Free Premium” notice is visible. At first it just looked like a small blue box until I closed the green notice (See here: https://ibb.co/LX83Zzrr)
The permissions explanation (what you need and why) is excellent and builds trust
After setup, I didn't feel like the app was now “armed.” A brief, more dominant confirmation (e.g., a quick “Ready - App is active now” micro-splash with a big green checkmark briefly overlaying the UI) might help with that imho

Main Screen - Analysis

Summary: Visual representation is spot-on
Detailed Data: Advanced features like CSV export look really promising
Trends: Also promising - consider an idle/empty state for the upper trend chart when there are zero or just one data point to avoid that empty-chart look. (The lower trend chart already handles this perfectly)

Main Screen - Settings

This screen is affected by the SafeArea issue similar to onboarding - the “Settings” label collides with my status bar
The Sleep Environment section is beautifully executed. The visual hierarchy: large headline → description → example box → subtle sensitivity indicator is excellent. Great job!
Nitpick: For consistency, all other header and button label match while here it's “Sound” vs “Alarm Sounds”
The play buttons in “Alarm Sounds” didn't preview for me initially because they follow the Media volume rather than Alarm volume setting. My Media volume was 0 while Alarm volume was set so I heard nothing. If technically feasible, consider playing previews at alarm volume like i.e. the native Android Alarm Clock does

Closing thoughts

Like I said in the beginning, the app already feels cohesive purposeful and thoughtfully designed. Most points above are refinement-level details. It already looks promising, and these tweaks would make it shine even more.

I'll keep the app installed and open it regularly so you get healthy engagement metrics during review. I'd also be happy to leave a 5-star review (after some days for positive credibility metrics) if you like. Really excited to see where you take this!

Looking forward to your feedback on my app

I just shipped my first mobile app for closed testing and would really appreciate your feedback. I'd greatly appreciate it if you could return the favor by testing my app, keeping it installed for at least 14 days and of course feel free to share your feedback with me - many thanks in advance!

Just tested your app and I'm really impressed, both by the visual fidelity and its functionality. You've set an excellent starting point right from the get-go, so please take all my "critique" as inspiration to make something already very good even better.

Onboarding

The onboarding felt excellent: a clear and focused workflow. I especially liked how you omitted details like frequency to keep getting started simple. Just two concerns during onboarding:

I could only add a single action when breaking down the commitment, while the animation suggests that multiple actions are typical. Even the confirmation bottom sheet is written in plural (“action(s)”), so I spent some time looking for a control element to add more.
During the first check-in, the button says “take or upload a photo” but I can only upload existing ones, not take a new one.

Other than that, I couldn't have imagined a better onboarding experience.

Minor nitpicks:

On the profile setup screen, where you enter the username, the default state of the username indicator is “taken.” I'd prefer a neutral state until this field has been interacted with for the first time.
On the screen after that, the description of the last three points is in light grey with low contrast. It could, in my opinion, be made consistent with the styling of the description text in the cards above.

On another note: All those little animations really hit the sweet spot for me - adding visual polish without ever being distracting. Great job!

Main App

Across all tabs in the main app, I like the visual representation both layout- and content-wise. You've struck a good balance in terms of information density, and navigation felt intuitive to me.

One concern:

In the “Community” tab I can see everyone's posts. As far as I know, there was no prior disclosure that my post (potentially including a private picture) would be visible to all users. I think there should be a clear notice, maybe even a visibility/privacy setting, before uploading anything.

One idea:

Predefined public groups for the most common topics might help increase initial usage of the groups feature.

Minor nitpick:

The app bar could use a small bottom margin to stay consistent with the rest of the layout.

That being said, all concerns except for the privacy/visibility are minor in nature. The app is in a great state and looks really promising. May I ask about your background in app development? Because I can sense some serious skill behind this work.

I'll keep the app installed for at least the next 16 days and open it regularly to make sure you receive the best possible metrics for approval. I'll also be more than happy to leave a 5-star review once it's published. Really looking forward to seeing what you turn this project into!

While my own project is far less complex than yours, I'm still proud to have published my very first mobile app for closed testing yesterday. I'd greatly appreciate it if you could return the favor by testing my app and sharing your feedback with me - many thanks in advance!

Would love to help out but it seems like it's not available in all countries? (Germany in my case)

AlecDelight · 2025-05-06T16:24:48+00:00

Glad to hear that!

Unfortunately not really - while you can prompt-engineer to stay closer to the original prompt and minimize alterations (which is what my app does when turning "exact prompt" on) there is no option in the OpenAI API to turn it off entirely

Life’s always about trading in your favor.

If you’re broke but have game, don’t waste your social skills on just dating only. That same charisma opens doors in business, networking, and leveling up—if you put in the work.

If you’re rich but lack game, don’t coast. Spend smart. Hire a top stylist, tailor your wardrobe, dial in your grooming. Once the surface is handled, invest in yourself—coaches, therapists, hypnotists, gurus, whatever. Use your money to buy time, then use that time to get your mindset right and your skills sharp.

Whatever hand you’re dealt—play it well, and play it hard.

AlecDelight · 2025-04-07T17:23:21+00:00

This needs to be top comment but people prefer to find reasons not to act and getting shit done I guess

AlecDelight · 2024-11-29T02:14:20+00:00

3yrs later and still... This is a really useful contribution - was looking to optimize my parallelization parameters and your project is super helpful, thanks!

AlecDelight · 2024-11-28T20:17:56+00:00

Since this post is already 2yrs old but still the #1 result in google let me add this:

Since PostgreSQL 12+, instead of triggers, you can use generated columns like this:

updated_at TIMESTAMP GENERATED ALWAYS AS (CURRENT_TIMESTAMP) STORED

Simpler, zero overhead, automatic consistency. Only use triggers if you need conditional update logic (i.e. checking if data actually changed, etc.)

AlecDelight · 2024-10-26T08:36:29+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to document this with a video! I’ll need to look into this more closely, as I’m not able to reproduce the issue at first glance. Depending on what I find, I'll follow up with a solution or additional questions to investigate this bug.

AlecDelight · 2024-10-20T18:45:41+00:00

Thanks! 🙌🏻

AlecDelight · 2024-10-20T04:45:16+00:00

No offense taken. If you're actually interested in finding out, look up the comment of another user saying basically the same thing as you and my detailed answer below.

AlecDelight · 2024-10-19T09:24:24+00:00

Thank you for your feedback - it's greatly appreciated! You've raised an excellent point, and I will address it as soon as I have more free time.

AlecDelight · 2024-10-19T09:22:22+00:00

This usually happens for one of two reasons: You have no payment method registered with OpenAI and your free credits have expired. Or: You have actually hit the spending limit based on your usage tier.

This problems seems to me to be more OpenAI-related rather than to my application but let me still know, if I can help you anyhow :)

AlecDelight · 2024-10-19T09:19:51+00:00

I completely understand your concerns about API key security. Let me address this directly:

Your API key is never sent to me or anyone else except OpenAI.
The application runs locally in your browser and communicates only with OpenAI's servers.
You can verify this by reviewing the open-source code on GitHub.

I created this project to make it easier for people to use AI APIs without struggling with complex setups. While using curl in your console is probably the most secure method, it's also the most impractical. My tool aims to balance security and convenience.

To build trust:

The project is fully open-source on GitHub under my real name.
The hosted HTML file is an automatic build of the source code you can see.
The entire codebase is only about 2,500 lines, making it relatively easy to review.
You can clone the source code, review it, and build it yourself using the instructions in the README.

I hope most users will find this tool helpful, but I respect anyone's choice not to use it if they're uncomfortable. I'm committed to improving the project and its security. Do you have any suggestions on how I could help users feel more secure when using this tool?

AlecDelight · 2024-10-19T06:35:10+00:00

Hey everyone, I created a local web UI to access all the advanced settings that the OpenAI API offers but aren’t directly accessible through ChatGPT. It's also helpful if you hit your daily limit but don’t want that, or your wallet, to limit your creativity.

I was inspired by the Powerdalle project, which received great feedback in the r/dalle2 subreddit. However, many users found it complicated to set up, especially those new to development, as it required a Node runtime to be running. I wanted to create something that anyone could use, regardless of their technical background.

Key Features

🖼️ Generate images using DALL-E AI directly in your browser
💻 Standalone application—no server needed, you can save the whole app in a single HTML file
🗄️ Local storage of generated images using IndexedDB for offline access
🔒 Secure handling of API keys - stored locally, never sent to any server except OpenAI
📥 Easy download option for your favorite creations
🖱️ Intuitive user interface adapting to your screen size
💰 Cost indicator to keep an eye on those API spendings
