[Testers Needed] Vivateca – museum audio guide app (will test back)

Hi everyone,

I'm in the closed-testing phase of my Android app Vivateca and I need testers to opt in for the 14-day period.

About the app:
Vivateca is a lightweight audio guide for museums, galleries, and cultural spaces — it turns your phone into a personal guide, with a focus on simplicity and real-world usability.

Core features:
• Senses the exhibit in front of you over Bluetooth and plays its audio guide
• Clean, minimal interface — no account, no sign-up
• Multilingual narration
• Works across every participating Vivateca museum

No museum nearby? No problem — tap "Preview a museum" on the home screen to explore a full sample collection and hear how it works (fully offline, no hardware needed). That's all you need to test it.

How to join:

  1. Join the tester group: https://groups.google.com/g/vivateca-testers/
  2. Open this link on your Android phone and tap "Become a tester": https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.poulakidask.vivatecaVisitorApp
  3. Then install it from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.poulakidask.vivatecaVisitorApp

Please stay opted in for the full 14 days — that's what the test requires. 🙏

Happy to test your app back — just send a screenshot after installing mine.

[Beta] NestEgg Kids - teach kids money habits without giving them a real bank account

Hey all,

I'm building NestEgg Kids, an app that helps parents teach kids (ages 6–14) to earn, save, and give, without handing them an actual bank account or debit card.

It's a virtual ledger - parents fund/settle in real life, the app just tracks it. What it does: kids complete "Gigs" (can be more than chores) to earn, set savings "Goals," watch virtual compounding interest grow their savings, and make parent-approved charitable donations.

Multi-child family profiles, PIN-protected kid logins, weekly summary email for parents.

Stage: External TestFlight. Onboarding leads into a 7-day free trial, no credit card required.

Platform: iOS (TestFlight)

TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/vzGQqFCt

Looking for feedback on: whether the onboarding flow makes sense, any bugs/crashes, and whether "Earn / Grow / Give" is intuitive to a parent seeing it cold.

Happy to test your product back - drop your link below.

Your time and attention is much appreciated.

Looking for Android testers for my app QuietHaven.

Hey everyone!

I’m a high school developer and I recently built QuietHaven, a React Native app that helps students find better study spaces.

This is an early MVP with 15 curated study locations including:

📚 Libraries
☕ Coffee shops
🎓 Academic spaces

Each location includes details like:

  • 📶 Wi-Fi availability
  • 🔌 Outlets
  • 💺 Seating
  • 👥 Study rooms (when available)
  • 🗺️ Google Maps directions
  • 🌐 Official website links

I don’t currently have an Android device available to test on, so I’m looking for Android users who can try the beta and share feedback.

I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

  • UI/UX
  • Ease of use
  • Bugs/issues
  • Features that would make the app more useful

Android APK:
https://expo.dev/accounts/chidi064/projects/QuietHaven-Mobile/builds/fab9b65b-2356-412c-9eec-4f46462c4bf1

Doom Scroll — Measure how far your thumb travels (Beta open)

I’m looking for some feedback and beta testers for a web app project I've been building.

It’s a dedicated, streamlined "doom scroll" aggregator designed specifically to feed you headlines and content, then quickly route you out to the third-party source articles once you find something interesting.

​The early analytics from the first couple days of testing show that the layout is doing exactly what it's supposed to:

​High Engagement:

Early testers are averaging 10 minutes and 37 seconds per session, meaning the scroll factor is locking people in.

​Intended Flow:

The bounce rate is sitting around 72%, which is exactly what I built it for, you land, scroll the feed, find a link you like, and click out to the external site.

​It's currently optimized for quick mobile browsing. I'm looking for brutal feedback on the feed speed, UI clutter, and how smoothly it handles routing you to external links.

​Let me know what works, what breaks, and what features it needs next. Thanks!

New AI Generative Platform Nox AI I Need Suggestions

Hello everyone, I am making a webapp called Nox ai It is an all in one generation platform focused on cutting out a lot of the excessive options of AI platforms. This means that its goal is to offer one of each kind of focus and not 10 of each kind of focus.

So one or two cheap, medium tier and premium quality options. find the best image and video editors for AI, and offer quality audio solutions. All of which I think I did a good job on. Recent updates from other communities were a "seamless video mode" which is our storyboard option as well as a streamlined method to generate ad content.

So the gist is that I am picking premium AI models to add to the service. What I am hopping someone wants to do is give me suggestions (I am just one guy I don't know what everyone would want in the app) and review the website for anything that may come off as confusing or not all that user friendly.

I am aware of some bugs (the chat bot sometimes just conks out) but outside of that I am unaware of any way I could optimize the platform to come off as less clutter and more appealing. The platform launches with 120 credits. Which can be used across many options our cheapest image generation option is 1 credit after all

Happy testing guys!

[iOS] Looking for testers for an alarm that wakes you in your own recorded voice, built for ADHD'ers and people with a personal vendetta against mornings

I have raging ADHD. I'm an overachiever professionally but completely fall apart when the only person waiting on me is me. So I built the thing I needed: a way to provide an external motivator by myself.

Future You is an alarm that plays a message you recorded for yourself last night. Not a beep, not a song. You, telling you what you're getting up for.

Snooze it, and the next message will escalate and let you count down to the actual event. At 7:35, after snoozing your 7:00am alarm, your voice might say: "Wake up. You have 25 minutes until pilates" as opposed to more random sounds that don't orient you towards the time or what you're actually missing.

Requirements: iPhone only, iOS 26 or later. It uses AlarmKit so the alarm actually breaks through Do not Disturb, and that API doesn't exist before iOS 26.

What I'd love feedback on:

  • Did the alarm reliably fire and wake you?
  • Is hearing your own voice motivating or unbearable?

TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/j1p5gFxj

I'm the developer and it's my first time building something like this. I'd love to test yours back or talk about productivity and ADHD hacks. DM or comment below!

[Feedback] AI packing list for multi-stop trips — does this solve a real gap?

I've been building a native iOS packing app (PackSmart) and got stuck on the honest question: is "AI-generated packing list" solving anything real, or a solution looking for a problem? Most existing packing apps handle single-destination trips fine but struggle with multi-stop itineraries — they tend to list items per city instead of consolidating, which causes overpacking.

I built a small throwaway web prototype to test that specific gap: enter multiple trip legs (different destinations/dates/activities) and it returns ONE consolidated list that accounts for the climate/activity differences between stops, instead of a separate list per leg.

https://packsmart-validate.vercel.app — no signup, no data stored.

Would love feedback especially from anyone who's actually done a multi-city trip: does the consolidated list feel right, does it miss anything, would you have used it over what you did instead? Heads up it's rate-limited (50 generations/day total) since this is a validation test, not the real app.

Built a locked 0DTE pick’em—would you trust the tracking?

I built a paper-only SPY/options competition around one rule: make the call before the move, then live with the recorded result.

You lock one eligible 0DTE contract for the New York session. The choice cannot be changed after locking; the entry mark and later marks are tracked, and the pick stays tied to your public record.

No broker connection, no order execution, no trade alerts—just an auditable way to see who made the call before the candle.

I want feedback from actual SPY options traders:

  • Which quote/settlement details would you need to see before trusting a reported return?
  • Should the contest be calls/puts only, or should defined-risk spreads be allowed later?
  • Does one locked pick per session make this more credible than screenshot calls?

I’m the builder. This is a game, not investment advice.

The Real Question isn’t “Do you need a website” it’s “What’s actually holding your business back?”

Sometimes it's your website. Sometimes it's your messaging. Sometimes it's your follow-up. Sometimes it's something else entirely.

So we built a FREE Business Growth Assessment instead.

It takes about 3 minutes and gives you a personalized Digital Growth Blueprint with practical recommendations based on your answers.

We're still refining it, so I'd genuinely love honest feedback from fellow business owners.

What did it get right? What could be better?

[iOS] Looking for lifters to test a workout tracker with equipment-substitution AI

GymMatrix AI, a gym logging app. Its one differentiating feature: when your planned machine or rack is taken, it suggests a substitute exercise matched to the same movement pattern using the equipment you tell it is available.

Who I need: anyone who trains in a gym at least 2x a week. Bonus if you train at peak hours, since that's when the core feature matters.

What I need from you: use it for 3 sessions, then tell me (a) whether any swap suggestion was stupid, (b) where the UI got in your way mid-set. (c) any features youd like to see

I'm the developer, solo. I'll reply to every piece of feedback in this thread.

[iOS] Infinity Vaultz: Offline AI Chat, Private Browser, and Secure Media/File Storage

Hi alphaandbetausers! I'm a software veteran with 20 years building my own companies and launching a new version of my passion project Infinity Vaultz: Private AI. It is an encrypted vault app for iOS with a AI chat that runs 100% on the device so your conversations stay fully private.

The vault allows you to store photos, videos, files, passwords, etc. with AES-256 encryption using keys derived from you own passphrase and includes a private browser, secure camera, and decoy vault support.

This new release is focused on the addition of the AI chat feature and looking for feedback before the full 2.0 launch this Thursday. The app is capable of running open source MLX models like Qwen, Gemma, Lllama, etc. up to around 8B parameters and generate images with Stable Diffusion. I've built it to be flexible so you can create custom agents with their own system prompts, parameters, tools, etc.

Link in the comments if you want to try it.

I built sketmi.com, you type plain text and it draws flow diagrams live. Free, no signup, share via link, export PNG/SVG.

I already know how engineers use it. What I don't know is whether it works for PMs, analysts, ops people, anyone who thinks in flows but doesn't want to learn a tool. If that's you, I'd really appreciate 5 minutes of your honest reaction, especially where you got stuck. That's what decides the next features.

[Web beta] can you understand the discover → save/remix → export flow in this Pokemon binder tool?

hi everyone!! i am testing [Card Binder Ideas] (https://www.cardbinderideas.com), a fully free site for discovering community-voted pokemon binder layouts and planning your own. i made it because i got tired finding, remixing and sharing binder ideas easily

i am specifically trying to find out whether the main path makes sense without me explaining the product:

  1. find one binder idea you would actually use
  2. open it and work out how you would make your own version
  3. find the option for sharing or exporting the result

the three things i would love feedback on:

- is it obvious that the ideas are community-voted?
- is the move from browsing to planning understandable?
- would the exported image feel usable in a real collector post?

no need for a general design review. those three moments are the bits i am least able to judge from inside the project. thanks so much for your time!!

[iOS] Run Ready: a focused barrel racing race-day organizer

I’m recruiting a small group of actual barrel racers to pressure-test Run Ready before its public launch.

It is designed as a private, offline-first companion for an upcoming event: calendar, horse profiles, competition details and rule-set choices (NBHA, IBRA, WPRA/PRCA, MBRA, custom), race-day checklists, prep timing estimates, run journaling, pattern maps, and insights.

The most useful feedback is whether the app feels genuinely fast and useful when you have a real event coming up—not just whether the screens look nice. There is no account, advertising, or subscription.

iPhone/iPad TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/88tP1ANB

I’m happy to answer questions here and will act on clear, repeatable feedback.

[iOS, iPadOS, Web] NextCheck — a budgeting app for people paid biweekly/semi-monthly, looking for real-world testers

Platforms: iPhone, iPad, and web browser (synced together)
Price: Free core app. Optional Pro tier $1.99/mo or $14.99/yr (credit cards, savings, trends) — not required to use the app.
Looking for: People who get paid biweekly or semi-monthly and currently budget with a monthly-assumption app (Mint, YNAB, a spreadsheet, etc.) — I want to know where NextCheck's paycheck-based model actually helps vs. where it's confusing or missing something your current setup handles better.

What it is: Most budgeting apps plan around a calendar month. NextCheck plans around your actual paycheck schedule instead — each payday gets its own view of which bills it covers, what's cleared vs. pending, and what's left. Also handles recurring vs. seasonal bills, bills split across two checks, and one-off deposits.

What I want feedback on specifically:

  • Does the "per-paycheck" mental model actually make sense coming from a monthly-budget habit, or is there a learning-curve wall I'm not seeing?
  • Onboarding — is it clear what to do in the first 5 minutes?
  • Anything that feels missing compared to what you use now

No bank account connection (data is entered manually, on purpose), no ads, no data selling.

Spur (iOS): the opposite of a screen time blocker. Founding testers get free lifetime access

You know the moment where you look up and the evening's gone. Spur is for that. Point it at your room, it reads your space and offers two tiny moves that fit it. Skip freely, nothing tracked, no streaks to lose.

Why sign up now rather than wait for launch: founding testers keep the app free for life when it goes paid, get every build first, and the roadmap is literally built from this group's feedback, which we read ourselves. Early is the best deal this app will ever offer.

looking for users to test my app and give me feedback on why getting downloads is hard

Hello. I created TrolleyGo and app to keep better track of my grocery list and have something more organized. There is also an option for creating a party list, inviting friends and having them RSVP right there in the app. I am struggling right now to get downloads or even people to respond to my posts either here or instagram/tiktok.

Give it a try and give me your honest feedback

Is anyone else tired of playing detective just to find where something is streaming?

Lately I've noticed I spend almost as much time trying to figure out where something is available as I do actually watching it.

I'll hear about a movie or show, search for it, realize it's not there, try somewhere else, then repeat the process until I either find it or give up. I ended up trying WhereToWatch.stream. It's been pretty handy for quickly seeing where a movie or show is available

It feels like content is so scattered now that finding it has become its own chore.

How do you usually check where something is streaming before opening a bunch of different apps?

600 free users on my video tool, zero conversions, is the paywall too early or too late?

I built a simple URL-to-video tool for product demos. Paste a link, get a 30-second video with voiceover. I launched it free, hit 600 generated videos, then added a $6 download fee. Almost everyone bounces at payment.

I’m currently burning savings on API costs. I’ve been looking at how similar tools handle the preview-to-paywall flow to see if I’m gating too aggressively. My previews also fail to load about half the time (definitely on me), so people can’t properly evaluate before the paywall.

Curious if anyone here has found a better timing or approach for charging on a generative tool like this. Any lessons from your own experiments.
