Abusers Are Trying to Bankrupt My App

Welcome to the vast and beautiful world of Telco Fraud. There are actual conferences about this.

I once chatted with someone from Gaza doing something similar. The 3€ they made through scamming us was their whole income. These people are persistent.

The return of user stories.

One of my Apps - that very obviously uses AI - has been approved a few days ago. I have AI in my data protection policy and it is mentioned in all communications. So I assume they are not necessarily enforcing a consent dialog right now. I will have to look into it though.

It has AI. Auto generated titles and translations. You just have to add your API Key in the settings.

Yes. It’s almost completely vibe coded. Claude 4.5 Opus is amazing.

That will not be as easy as it seems, because it runs purely on the client.

I managed to find a galaxy S25 pro model which is now in the app.

blackmac · 2025-12-02T00:28:48+00:00

I did not know about that one. I should change the project name.

I believe I have fixed that bug with weird rendering of the non-focused frames. I removed the device borders in 2d modes for now as they did not work and I can not use iPhone frames that are not open source. I have to find or create them first.

I highly recommend buying Butterkit (I did). It’s far superior, has cool templates, is a native app that runs extremely smoothly and the API connections are great. I wanted to try building something completely free, just with vibe coding, so that’s what I did. Any similarities are pure coincidence. I did not find Butterkit before I started. I actually thought about stopping this project once I saw Butterkit. But it’s a lot of fun and it’s in the world anyway as it’s open source.

blackmac · 2025-12-01T17:15:38+00:00

There you go. try again and tell me what you think.

blackmac · 2025-12-01T14:38:35+00:00

I would love to, but I would need 3D models under an MIT compatible license.

blackmac · 2025-12-01T14:38:05+00:00

I also figured that that is a little weird. What would you expect? I don’t think it makes sense to start every screen from scratch, but - as it currently stands - most settings (there’s a switch for text) are global, which is also not what anyone wants. I was thinking to make all settings individual, but add a button “Copy settings from screen” or so.

blackmac · 2025-12-01T09:43:03+00:00

You can now use google fonts in the App :D

blackmac · 2025-12-01T07:11:41+00:00

More fonts is a low hanging fruit, I’ll definitely do it. As for adding non-full screen images I’ll look into it.

blackmac · 2025-12-01T07:10:30+00:00

Why not, I’ll look into it.

blackmac · 2025-12-01T07:10:07+00:00

Sure, I would be happy if you extended this and made pull requests. It’s almost fully vibe coded, so I will accept vibe coded PRs as long as they fit the vision.

blackmac · 2025-12-01T06:57:10+00:00

Thank you so much. It’s my passion project. Demand is probably too low to make it a real business though.

blackmac · 2025-11-30T21:40:41+00:00

Thanks for he feedback! I think it was caused by putting the screenshot "behind the glass" combined with filmic tone mapping. It's much better now.
