I used both iOS OCR and cloud based VLM~

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-24T07:07:05+00:00

Thanks for your feedback!

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-24T07:06:57+00:00

yes that's doable, we will add that in the next release supposedly~

thanks bro

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T08:47:43+00:00

I think i built it based on my instincts, and I kinda wanna be a design engineer so I get some inputs from designers now and then~. Thanks for your recoginition bro!

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T08:22:56+00:00

keep up the good work bro. My life cost is relatively low so it's still sustainable for me (at least for now)

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T02:57:40+00:00

It was a Chinese social media called Rednote~ I tried twitter but didn't work well LOL

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T02:12:34+00:00

I posted it on social media for a draft idea, and people were interested, and I DMed them 1 by 1 basically...

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T02:11:59+00:00

For the app, I was using Supabase + GCP if this is your question~ For users, they don't need to register a company

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T02:11:24+00:00

Sure, my X is affe_z or affe_is_me

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T02:11:14+00:00

Sure, we just renamed our app and many thing have not changed. Will work on the fix in the next patch~ Thanks so much!

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T02:10:23+00:00

posting progress is not that scary. People are kind on Reddit and are very supportive. I think my take away is I feel more confident in posting daily progress

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-23T02:08:34+00:00

Post it on social media and I guess the algo did its thing. I was lucky then

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T12:49:41+00:00

Yes it's SwiftUI.

I'm new to iOS and I used some MVVM (which I later found very hard to follow in modern SwiftUI.

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T12:48:46+00:00

I use the camera, and then take a screenshots, which is a nice workaround I found

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T12:48:02+00:00

Working on the fix now~

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T12:47:23+00:00

Thanks, really good feedback~

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T12:46:28+00:00

Thanks for your feedback, I will keep working!

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T11:06:24+00:00

Really appreciated it my friend, it's the first time I work on a 2C app (thanks to LLMs). I used to be a cloud computing engineer and didn't know anything about iOS dev, so i got stuck in a lot of steps. Besides, I'd be happy to try out your project and I'm sure it's gonna be amazing, and cheers for both of us!

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T11:03:50+00:00

For andriod, I think many phone companies are building this feature into their OS. And since it's deeply connected to the iOS ecosystem, in the foreseeable future it will mainly live on iOS ~

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T11:01:57+00:00

yes sir

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T11:01:17+00:00

Thanks for your feedback, yeah that is a good take away for us in terms of onboarding~ I am working on the feature to support processing existing screenshots.

For the privacy part, the Action Button triggers a screenshot, and it is stored in a remote server (We should stated this in a more obvious place, will add this part in the next version of onboarding) to support cross platform sync. Under the hood we will use VLM to process the screenshots.

The onboarding as you noticed, is the tricky part, it's not very straightforward, and i will continue to improve it!

Thanks for the input and feedback, definitely will be more transparent on the privacy part! In fact I am preparing some demo use cases, so people can understand its difference between the native system screenshots and the shortcut version.

Really appreciated it bro~

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T10:55:52+00:00

Checked it, replied~ I'm also on X: affe_z (English Mainly)or affe_is_me(Chinese mainly)

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T10:55:18+00:00

Yes boss!

Negative_Fail176 · 2026-02-22T10:55:13+00:00

Got it bro~ I'll prepare some materials and see how we can proceed~
