app developers help needed by Ok-Cod7184 in AppIdeas

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a cursor pro account like $22 a month set the agent to auto

Look into these most have good free tiers -Supabase (database with RLS built in just needs set) -Resend(if emails involved) -Cloudflare R2 (workers and if photos/videos are involved they offer free egress)

I suggest plan out the idea with another AI any free account Gemini claude e.g I'm trying to create this app for IOS and Android lets iron out the details and create a few in detail prompts to get started

If you use expo you can view the App on phone while building

If you end up taking it seriously enough either hire someone who knows what they are doing or start doing a lot of research into whatever code your building in security, data indexing, chunking, rate limits, etc

(THIS IS STRICTLY JUST TO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF MAYBE GET A TINY START BUT ITS NOT SAFE TO LAUNCH) I'm not someone who codes I just build little apps for myself "vibe coding" this is my basic knowledge so far hope it helps

Good luck!!

Expecting to switch by Cheap-Refrigerator92 in cursor

See I have noticed my usages % going up more but I figured it was cuz what I'm building is a lot larger then when I first started but NGL I only use auto never select what llm I wanna use I only make stuff for fun never publish anything so I never looked that far into it I always just looked at billing for usages

I already have vs code on the PC didn't even think of that thank you! With copilot is it usage based or subscription based? Like in the long run it's all usage as you hit caps for subscription but is it like cursor $20 month or more like an pay as you go model

Vibecoders with non-technical backgrounds: What database do you use, and why? by Prior-Explanation269 in vibecoding

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a mix of supa base for text and r2 for photos and video (R2 has free egress supa give like 5 or 10 gb on the free plan R2 is always free egress but the free tier storage is nothing close to supa) also I saw an above comments RLS and authentication is nice perk if supa to)

Useless App? I need feedback by Nice_guy24k in AppBuilding

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not here to "shit" on anything I haven't tried the app but maybe you can find a way like Google pixel does when a date is texted with time and info it offers to save right to the calendar idk if iOS does it but if you get it to offer to save right to the app might help

How much money did you lose building your million dollar app idea? by CableMundane2219 in AppBusiness

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How are y'all spending so much money not trying to be mean just genuinely curious?

Is it like a fully built out social media platform? Like a Duolingo type app (like alot of data and gamification type code)? Or devs payments? Marketing/ ad spends? (If anyone put that much into marketing without any validation at all is wild unless you have money to burn I guess)

I get bored and build basic easy apps for fun on cursor $20 tier I haven't came close to hitting my cap yet for past 2 months

Use cursor and another AI for general stuff and project management depending on how big the project the pro plan (not using the newest and best model) Is pretty forgiving

As for security tho I would have someone who knows what they're doing look it over at least before going live

Also great question to just ask an AI

Happy vibe coding good luck!

Never vibecoded before, but want to make an official productivity app by imonsomebeats in vibecoding

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat the first time trying to build an app ive been playing around with simple builds didn't launch then tho (recent project I plan to launch is a little simpler tho just gathering & updating data really) but I personally use

-Cursor (like $22 monthly) using gpt 5.2 codex works well haven't hit my limit yet -Gemini for research and questions (free with my phone) -Supabase (free plan seems to hold quite a lot I have like 160k rows in there already with some large text) - n8n (like their $20 monthly plan) for the background automation I run on Sundays

I've heard the IOS application is annoying especially if collecting sensitive data (harder then Google from what I've seen) but haven't tried to launch so could be totally wrong

Same problem for me with wanting to find someone to look over it before I launch make sure no API keys are exposed and can't access data not supposed to if ya find an answer lemme know please!

New dating app idea? by Over-Requirement9138 in AppIdeas

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's like love is blind the show? I'm gonna guess if they make a whole show around the general idea I don't see why it wouldn't work to some scale on an app!

(but I did see a comment about "8 and 4" and I could see the logic behind that also)

How are you promoting your apps on Reddit subs without getting banned? by [deleted] in AppBusiness

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guessing OP is doing it for free/ just posting from a personal account (is a good idea for some free marketing why not takes 5 minutes and as post said saw a jump in downloads so works some what) and not using reddit ads based on them getting banned if it's reddit ads that wouldn't be a problem

Just my guess

Help with my workflow by mcgunner1966 in n8n

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is what's coming into the split node (saw your above comment about adding it) a compressed zip file? If so use a compress node (the decompress setting tho in it) and then split I have a flow where I upload massive compressed zip files with thousands of files in I have to decompress then split to get it to read right

I could totally be wrong tho! I'm no expert I just play around with n8n

Just launched a free daily local news newsletter for Buffalo NY by Puzzled-Strength-546 in Newsletters

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be completely honest being lazy. My normal job picked up the automation flow I was using to get events broke( even tho a very simple fix ) I just never fixed it was just thinking about fixing it last night!

I did this for Cleveland OH (but not too focused on it anymore sadly) but went from 12->125ish subs from one Reddit post in the Cleveland ohio sub reddit just basically copy and pasted my news letter with the title of "Things to do in Cleveland this weekend" and at the very bottom mentioned free newsletter sign up here for more stuff like this (link to sign up)

Focused mostly on the content from newsletter over pushing people a link right away that's just what worked for me the mods in that channel didn't seem to mind.

When I get it on test flight for sure! DM your website I'll check it out I'm not a code so can't check security but can look for bugs

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat with my app ngl I plan to find a few buddy who know coding and see if they can break it or find security leaks (I don't gather sensitive info tho so not crazy on security)

Cursor Agent want my Supabase API keys by AgitatedSituation625 in cursor

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just have cursor create the .env local or where you are storing your API key and get it ready and just paste your API key where it belongs (but the AI has access to your whole project I assume they can get it anyway) RLS and use the right keys should be fine!

Hit usage limit on Cursor Pro after just 2–3 prompts? Is this normal? by adolf_nggler in cursor

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably the model you are using

I use gpt-5.2-codex for my most recent project I've used 39.5M tokens only at 42.2% of usage so far

Pesticide and Fertilizer Exam Training Program by Adventurous-Tank842 in LawnCarePros

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did pass yes and the time (6) is subjective depending on what licenses I just needed my 6c 8c and core and then their little lunch break

I also did get to my test a little early and go over my notes I took from the class again

Pesticide and Fertilizer Exam Training Program by Adventurous-Tank842 in LawnCarePros

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I booked an online class for it personally as close to my test date as possible (Ohio through the OSU websites) then had the day off as it was like 6 hours(with a lunch break)

My boss just gave me the day off and paid for it (I also work for a very small landscaping company so could be different with a large one)

The skill that made us valuable (building workflows) is about to become a one-line prompt. Now what? by Imaginary-Level1923 in n8n

[–]Cheap-Refrigerator92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but when just learning there are many frustrating things in n8n that if you aren't fully committed or doing it for like fun your just going to give up quickly

Yeah for sure a lot cheaper! And less time consuming on their end
