    Apple should really implement 'Ambient Display' for iOS 14. Having my phone light up the room at 2am when I receive notifications is annoying.

    A year ago I got tired of seeing crappy loan calculator apps so I made my own. It's called Loan Master and you can view multiple graphs with an amortization table and export them to Excel. Just recently added an update that allows you to create a PDF of your loan results. Would like any feedback!

    I always had a hard time finding old workouts so I made a workout app that allows you to browse your workouts on a map instead of in a list. It also functions as a heat map over where you have been running/swimming/hiking in the past using HealthKit

    (App) I always ended up with multiple, long to-do lists, and wanted something simpler, cleaner, more short-term. So I made Primalist.

    Posted: 04 Jan 2020 02:12 PM PST

    Hello r/Apple! I'm Tushar, and I want to share an app I made!

    It's called Primalist.

    App Store Link (all functionality is free, although you can purchase wallpapers or leave tip if you'd like)

    It's a simple to-do list app (we have a lot of those, I know!).

    But it holds only 7 tasks at a time. So it's always short, always meaningful, never overwhelming.

    That also means now you need to really take a few minutes and ask yourself - "What's really, actually going to make the biggest difference to my day?" because only the things that matter most go into one of those 7 slots.

    You can set a timer, a reminder, and flag for each task.

    It's also got some cool wallpapers that you can purchase as a set. The feel of the app changes with the wallpaper you choose.

    Please go ahead and try it out if you're interested. I'm also looking for feedback for improvements and you can let me know here, or on twitter (@) primalistapp.

    [SPS] Introducing Book Track, a native library manager app built on iCloud that can keep track of the purchased books and a wish list, designed only for iOS

    Posted: 04 Jan 2020 09:53 AM PST

    Hello,

    my name is Simone Montalto and I recently published my first personal application on the App Store.

    It's called Book Track and allows you to easily keep track of the books you've purchased or would like to buy. You can add a new book to the collection or to the wish list by searching for it by title, author or ISBN, by scanning the barcode or by entering it manually. The entire collection is automatically synchronized on all the devices connected to your Apple account via iCloud.

    During the development of Book Track, I wanted to focus a lot on ease of use, creating an app that fully integrates with the operating system in terms of user experience and UI. Furthermore, no registration is required.

    AppStore: https://apps.apple.com/it/app/book-track-library-manager/id1491660771?l=en

    Thanks
