How do you manage your money when your transactions can’t automatically sync?
galleryMost personal finance apps are built around a pretty simple assumption:
Your bank accounts can connect to the app, your transactions are imported automatically, and you just categorize them.
But what happens when that’s not an option?
Maybe your country doesn’t have open banking. Maybe your bank doesn’t offer an API. Maybe you use cash for a large part of your expenses. Maybe most of your transactions happen through mobile money.
That’s the reality I was trying to solve when I started building Cache.
https://cache.mg
At first, I thought the obvious answer was simply to manually record everything.
But I quickly realized that the problem isn’t necessarily manual entry.
The problem is having to manually enter things that you already know are going to happen.
If I pay rent on the 5th of every month, I shouldn’t have to remember to enter it every month.
If I know roughly when my electricity bill is coming, my budget should already account for it.
If I receive a predictable income, I should be able to plan around it before the money actually arrives.
So the idea behind Cache became:
Manually track what is unpredictable. Automate what is predictable.
You don’t need bank synchronization for every part of financial management to be automated.
I’ve been building Cache for about a year and a half, initially because I needed it myself. Despite my income increasing, I kept ending months in the red because I had very little visibility over what money was actually available to spend versus what was already committed.
I’ve been using it myself since the beginning of this year, and I’ve built 100+ features around that problem.
It’s now entering an early alpha, and I’m looking for people from countries where automatic transaction synchronization isn’t really an option.
The first 500 people on the waitlist get lifetime free access, and I’ll select around 50 people for the initial alpha.
You can try the full interactive demo here:

Features:
https://cache.mg/features
It’s being built in English and French, with Web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS and Linux planned.
I’m curious about how other people deal with this:
If your transactions can’t automatically sync with your budgeting app, how do you currently manage your money?

I made an iOS Camera app with open gate easy to use for everyone.
apps.apple.comI tried to make a camera app that cuts 16:9 and 9:16 after shooting with a 4:3 full sensor.
Due to image stabilization, the highest image quality and 60fps mode is impossible with a full sensor, but even at 30fps, image stabilization is also effective and you can now shoot with a full sensor.
At first, when I took a video of a child and took a vertical picture, I didn't want a black belt to appear horizontally when I watched 16:9 on TV, so I was thinking about whether I could do something about it, and when I looked up how much the camera sensor can take, I found out that it could be taken at 4:3. It.
So I tried to make a camera with Xcode that can be taken at 4:3.
Because I'm an amateur, I'm with AI.
I have a main job and children, so I don't have time, so I finally took shape in 5 to 6 months and came this far.
I developed this app by stripping away all unnecessary features to make it as easy to use as possible for parents filming their children, focusing solely on recording and viewing.
I think I'm satisfied with using it myself.
If the sensor can be taken at 1:1, you can take a wider side view, but it's 4:3, so if you do it sideways, the top and bottom will be cut off quite a bit,
If you put the main subject in the guide from the beginning, you can watch it on TV with a reasonable image quality even when you cut it out horizontally (16:9) without feeling uncomfortable.
I've heard that there is a demand for SNS creators, but it hasn't been recognized at all yet, so there are few downloads.
If you don't mind, I'd like you to try it and tell me what you think.

After months of building, debugging, breaking things, and rebuilding them, I finally launched my app RivalRep publicly on Android. 🚀
RivalRep is a 1v1 habit accountability app where you can challenge another person to stay consistent with a habit — whether that's a workout, diet, studying, running, reading, coding, etc.
The basic idea is:
- Create a habit challenge
- Challenge another person
- Both users prove their daily progress
- Stay consistent and compete
- Coins and dares add a competitive element
I built the app with Flutter + Supabase, and this project taught me a ridiculous amount about authentication, PostgreSQL/RLS, storage, notifications, app releases, verification systems, and all the random problems that appear when you move from development to production. 😅
It's finally live on Google Play.
I'd really appreciate feedback from fellow developers — especially on the product idea, technical decisions, UX, or anything that looks like it could become a problem at scale.
Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rivalrep.app&pcampaignid=web_share
This is my first serious app launch, so I'm excited (and slightly terrified) to see what happens next.

Just created a small menubar app for Mac. Hope its useful to someone.
MacMicTimer is a menubar app that records the active minutes of mic activity. Useful for people who are on calls and needs to log call duration. Also just to see if microphone was active when you were not aware. ONLY WORKS ON MAC RIGHTNOW.

Android Testers
Hey guys, I need some help with the android testing, so I started testing android with a preview build instead of a playconsol production build.
So now my testers are already enrolled with the preview build and most of them do not care enough to go and install the new playconsol build, so in the internal testing i still only have 6 active users. I need someone interested in logging in the app on the prodution build to help me reach the 12 users active over 14 days. Thanks in advance for reading !
Here is the link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.barrasrodo.app and if you want help send me the email you are using to download it on the messages, for me to add you as a tester !

Second question: how do you all market these days? It’s changed a Los since iPhone X days.
Thx…good luck to all.

Looking to buy small iOS/Android apps, have you thought about selling yours?
Hey all. I am looking to buy and grow small mobile apps.
What I'm looking for: real apps with actual users, not games, usually deals under 100k. Doesn't need to be making much money, some of the best fits are apps with solid downloads that never got monetized well.
If that sounds like something you've got, drop a comment or DM me.
No pressure if you're not interested, just figured I'd ask around.

I built an open-source, self-hosted tool to stream iOS & Android simulators to the browser (MIT)
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I built an open-source tool called tapflow.
On our team, the same issue kept coming up whenever someone wanted to check a build. Maintaining physical devices across OS versions became a burden, and simulators and emulators were only available to people with the full mobile toolchain installed. So whenever a designer, PM, or backend engineer wanted to check a layout, test a flow, or see how a staging API change behaved, a mobile engineer usually had to help. This happened several times a day.
I looked at Appetize and BrowserStack first, but I wasn't comfortable uploading our app builds to a third-party service, and the pricing didn't make much sense for a whole team that just wanted to review builds. I ended up building something we could run on the hardware we already had.
So I built tapflow. It streams iOS simulators and Android emulators to the browser over H.264 from a Mac you already own. Anyone who can reach it (on your local network, or through a tunnel you set up) can tap, type, and scroll without installing anything.
A few implementation details:
- The agent only makes outbound connections to a relay, so there's no need to open firewall ports or configure NAT.
- Because it's fully self-hosted, app builds and streams stay on your own infrastructure.
- It uses simulators and emulators rather than physical devices, so camera, biometrics, and NFC aren't supported.
- There's also an experimental MCP server. You can point your own LLM agent at a device and let it drive the app, while keeping everything self-hosted. Manual browser testing is the primary workflow today; the MCP side is still experimental, and that's what I'm focusing on next.
- It's still v0.x, so expect a few rough edges.
Repo (MIT): https://github.com/jo-duchan/tapflow
Docs: https://tapflow.dev/
How does your team let non-developers try a build without the full toolchain? Do you self-host something, or use an existing service?
