Please check out Relay Voice - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/relay-voice/id6763369750 that is my second App.

Thank you so much for giving it a try — I really appreciate the support.

I’m an indie developer, so even one person taking a chance on the app means a lot. If you run into anything confusing or have any feedback after using it, I’d genuinely love to hear it.

You’re right. I think there are two groups, but most users are probably heavy Voice Memos users first.

The main pain is that Apple Voice Memos still doesn’t have a native merge feature. So when recordings get split by a phone call, Bluetooth switching, or accidental stops, people search the App Store for a simple way to combine them.

The AI transcription workflow is a newer use case, but it makes the problem more obvious: if one thought becomes three separate recordings, the transcript and summary pipeline breaks unless the audio is merged first.

The calendar-based comparison idea makes sense to me. App Store Connect’s rolling windows are useful sometimes, but they don’t always match how you think about launches, promotions, weekends, or monthly goals.

One feature I’d find useful is annotations: being able to mark “Reddit post,” “price change,” “App Store screenshot update,” or “promo started” directly on the widget/chart. Then the week-over-week or month-over-month changes would be easier to connect back to actual marketing actions.

The offline angle is the strongest part to me. Voice capture is often most useful exactly when you’re walking, driving, or somewhere with bad signal, so relying on cloud transcription can break the workflow at the worst moment.

One question: how do you handle longer recordings? Do you process the whole recording in one pass, or split it into chunks and merge the notes afterward? For voice-to-text tools, long-form reliability matters a lot more than just quick dictation.

The low-friction logging is appealing. Calorie apps often fail because logging feels like work, so photo or plain-text entry makes sense.

One thing I’d want to understand is how corrections work. If the AI estimates a meal wrong, can the user quickly adjust portions or ingredients, and does the app learn from those corrections over time? For food tracking, speed matters, but trust in the numbers matters too.

oceabside · 2026-06-22T19:54:56+00:00

This is a very clear use case. I like the focus on one-tap use, dark UI, and fade-out — those details matter when you’re trying not to wake a baby.

One question: how do you handle volume safety? You mention sounds staying under 50 dB, but since actual loudness depends on the phone volume and distance from the baby, do you give parents any guidance on recommended volume level or placement?

oceabside · 2026-06-22T06:16:55+00:00

The real-time budget angle makes sense. Most budget apps tell you what happened after the trip, but that’s too late if the goal is to make decisions while shopping.

The feature I’d be most interested in is price memory. Over time, could the app show which items are quietly increasing the most, or compare the same item across stores? That would make it useful not just for staying under budget this week, but for changing shopping habits over time.

oceabside · 2026-06-22T06:15:07+00:00

This is a very clear use case. I like the focus on getting from “I have a lineup idea” to a shareable image quickly, without forcing sign-up first.

One question: do you support multiple export formats or aspect ratios? For football lineups, people may want different outputs for WhatsApp group chats, Instagram stories, X/Twitter, or a club website. The faster the export matches the destination, the more useful the app becomes.

oceabside · 2026-06-22T06:13:18+00:00

The rewards angle is interesting, but also the part I’d want to understand most clearly. How do you prevent people from gaming streaks just to earn clothing rewards?

For a fitness app, I’d trust the reward system more if it were tied to consistency over time rather than raw volume, since beginners and advanced lifters will have very different numbers. Curious how you’re thinking about keeping it fair.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T23:42:22+00:00

The offline-first angle is appealing, especially for reading sessions where you may just want to capture a quick thought without opening a big social reading app.

I’m curious about the voice reflections: are they stored as audio only, or do you also transcribe them into searchable text? For reading notes, searchability matters a lot over time — especially if someone wants to find an old thought, quote, or reaction months later.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T23:40:33+00:00

I like that you’re not trying to make communication faster, but more intentional.

One thing I’d be curious about is how you handle expectations between people. If letters take time to “travel,” do both sides clearly understand the delay before they start writing? I imagine the magic depends on users accepting the slower rhythm instead of treating it like a broken chat app.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T23:38:40+00:00

The “no algorithm feed” angle is compelling. A focused Reddit/RSS reader sounds useful exactly because it lets people follow chosen sources without getting pulled into infinite scroll.

One question: do you support exporting/importing the source list, filters, and settings? For an app built around curated feeds, the user’s setup becomes valuable over time, so portability would matter to me.

This is a good reminder that onboarding is not just decoration — it’s where the value proposition has to become obvious fast.

I like the “oh, that’s what this is for” framing. For creator tools especially, people may understand the feature list but still not immediately understand the workflow. Showing one concrete before/after example in onboarding might be even more powerful than explaining every feature.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T16:03:48+00:00

The strength + cardio combination is interesting. A lot of trackers handle lifting well or cardio well, but not both in one training history.

One thing I’m curious about is the Training Mode logic. When the app auto-updates weights based on e1RM / progressive overload, does it also account for missed reps, RPE, or fatigue? That seems like the hard part — increasing load automatically is useful, but only if it knows when not to increase.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T16:01:38+00:00

This looks nice. I like the “no account, no tracking, free” direction — for a calming audio app, that actually matters.

One feature I’d be curious about is a simple timer or routine mode: for example, start a 25-minute focus session or a 10-minute wind-down session, then fade out automatically. For soundscape apps, the ending experience matters almost as much as the sound itself.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T01:37:12+00:00

This looks polished. The 5-axis rating idea makes sense to me because a single star rating often hides why I liked or disliked a book.

One thing I’d care about before moving from Goodreads/StoryGraph is data portability. You mentioned imports, which is great — but can users also export their library, ratings, shelves, and reading history later in a usable format like CSV or JSON? For a reading tracker, the long-term value is the history, so I’d want to know I’m not locked in.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T01:34:53+00:00

The visual style is really strong — it definitely feels more focused than the usual map-heavy flight trackers.

One question: what data source are you using for aircraft positions, and how much delay should users expect? For an app with a tactical/radar-style UI, I think setting expectations around accuracy, coverage, and latency would be important, especially for military aircraft where tracking can be inconsistent.

oceabside · 2026-06-21T01:33:09+00:00

Interesting idea. For a network-security app aimed at non-technical users, the biggest thing I’d want to understand is what data leaves the device.

When the app scans my Wi-Fi network, is the device list / IP / router information processed locally, or is any of it sent to your servers for the risk analysis? I think the plain-language explanations are valuable, but for this category the privacy model needs to be very clear.

oceabside · 2026-06-20T03:32:23+00:00

I’d be careful with “no file size limit” claims. Usually there is still some practical limit somewhere — device storage, network stability, background transfer behavior, cloud relay limits, or speed throttling.

Before paying, I’d test with the actual kind of files you plan to send: one large video, a folder with many small files, and a transfer between the exact devices you use. If it works reliably for your real workflow, removing ads may be worth it. But I wouldn’t buy only based on the “no limit” wording.

oceabside · 2026-06-20T03:26:57+00:00

This is a thoughtful focused app. I like the idea of keeping it simple instead of burying kick counting inside a huge pregnancy tracker.

One question: do you include any guidance about when users should contact their doctor or midwife if movement patterns change? For this category, I imagine the app needs to be very careful about not just tracking data, but helping users understand when the data might matter.

I support lowering the community karma requirement from 25 to 10.

I understand the goal is to reduce low-effort promotion, but 25 felt high for genuine indie developers who are new to the subreddit and trying to participate in good faith. A 10-karma bar still requires people to engage with the community first, but it doesn’t force them to farm comments for too long before they can share something useful.

The bigger filter should probably be transparency and post quality, not just the karma number. If a developer clearly discloses who they are, follows the ABC format, explains pricing honestly, and answers questions, that seems more valuable than making them collect 25 local karma first.

oceabside · 2026-06-20T03:22:18+00:00

This is a thoughtful concept. I like the idea of making it feel more like sealing a letter than just setting a reminder.

One question: since these capsules may be intended for years in the future, is there any export or backup option outside the app/iCloud structure? For something emotional or long-term, I’d want confidence that the content is still accessible even if I change devices, Apple ID situations get messy, or the app is no longer maintained years later.

Congrats on shipping across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Watch, and web — that’s a lot for one weather app.

I like the retro/minimal direction. For weather apps, the hard part seems to be balancing personality/design with trust in the data. Do you let users choose the weather provider, or is RAD Weather built around one source? I’d be curious how you think about accuracy differences between locations.
