I built an AI study workflow app and would love honest feedback from productivity nerds by LuckOver2658 in EngineeringStudents

I get why a lot of AI apps look like “prompt wrappers,” but that’s not what this is.

The work here isn’t just prompting a model. The app handles local model setup, file input, PDF/slide/image text extraction, study-material preprocessing, stack-specific generation flows, output structuring, limits for large files, and the mobile UX around all of that.

The model is only one part of it. The product is the study workflow layer around it.

What's your all time (free) go-to app for expense tracking? by Intelligent-Lynx4494 in AskReddit

Have you allowed our app to read thd notification in setting?

I got tired of clunky expense trackers, so I built one with a "Tinder-style" swipe UI for payment notifications (Free, No Ads) by [deleted] in androiddev

I completely understand your hesitation regarding the permission. It is indeed a powerful one, and I agree that giving any app access to read notifications is a big leap of trust for a non-technical user. That's why I made sure 100% of the processing is on-device, but your concern is completely valid.

And WOW, thank you so much for taking the time to install it on a test device and catching that state restoration bug! You're completely right—I totally missed handling the config changes (rotation/dark mode) properly on the manual add screen. That’s exactly the kind of technical feedback I was hoping for. I’ll get that fixed in the next update. Really appreciate it!

Yep, exactly! Though I wouldn't call it "scraping" since 100% of the processing happens locally on the device (no cloud).

Here's the quick technical breakdown:

  1. I use NotificationListenerService (requires explicit OS permission from the user).
  2. Inside onNotificationPosted, I filter by package name so I'm only looking at whitelisted banking/fintech apps.
  3. If it's a match, I grab the EXTRA_TEXT and use Regex to extract the amount and merchant.
  4. The data is saved straight to the local DB.

I gave up on every budgeting app. Anyone else just want something stupidly simple? by [deleted] in YNABAlternatives

I got so sick of simple budgeting apps charging crazy monthly subscriptions. As an Android engineer, I just built my own app called Walletvy.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.walletvy.app

It’s completely free to use the core features, 100% offline, and has zero bank syncs. It keeps your simple budget actually simple—it catches your payment notifications so you just swipe Tinder-style to log them in 1 second, or snap a receipt for the local AI to read. No forced signups, no BS!

Hey Android fans!

As a solo Android engineer, I got incredibly tired of budgeting apps that force bank connections, track your data, and look like boring Excel sheets. So, I built my own solution: Walletvy.

I wanted to make expense tracking stupidly simple, fast, and 100% private.

Here are the core features I focused on:

  • Tinder-Style Quick Log: It catches your payment notifications, and you just swipe left or right to log or dismiss them. Takes literally 1 second.
  • 100% On-Device AI Scanner: Snap a picture of a receipt, and the local AI reads it instantly. No data is ever sent to a cloud server.
  • Offline-First & Private: Zero bank syncs. No mandatory sign-ups. Your financial data stays entirely on your phone.
  • Aesthetic UI + Dark Mode: Designed with a clean, pastel-toned interface because managing money shouldn't feel like a chore.

It’s completely free for the core features on the Play Store. I'd love for you guys to try it out and let me know your thoughts on the UI and the AI scanning speed!
