Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a free, super simple iOS app to calculate discounts
Thank you very much ! It is all made manually on Figma

Hey !

Promo codes may be redeemed by following these steps: - Open the AppStore - Tap your profile picture on top-right - Tap "Redeem Gift Card or Code" - Tap "Enter Code Manually" - Enter the code and it's done !

Thank you very much for your feedbacks ! Ohh, it was not intended to look like a dark pattern and don't want users to feel this way, I take note of it.

You're totally right, live wallpapers would be a great addition. For the moment the app is a v1.0 that's just been released today so a lot of improvements and new features are planned :)

Thank you very much for the feedback and the idea. I will work on this

Unfortunately this isn't currently possible but this is on the app's TODO list. Do you have any idea of how you would like to export them ? How it would look like ?
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
Thanks that's kind of you ! The app is made in Swift, I've only used SwiftUI for the homescreen and lockscreen widgets :)

Great idea ! Would need some investigation but should be doable
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
Thanks for sharing, will take a look !
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
I'm glad you do ! :)

You're right, but as explain in another comment, I've already did it once in another field, so why not ? The only way to succeed is by trying :)
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
Congrats, it looks nice !
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
Thank you for the support !

Your spreadsheet seems really interesting, I would have been very curious to see what it looks like. That's a shame it contains your personal data haha

That's a very good feedback, thank you very much ! I'll check if it's possible to switch currency without adding complexity for mono currency users.

To be honest there's nothing special in the code or whatever. Almost all the apps I worked on are at least 50MB so it does not surprise me.

The smallest one I've worked on is a 2 screens app, 100% offline, without any third-library, without in-app purchases and without onboarding etc so it's clearly the less you can do and it's still almost 20MB.

Thank you very much for sharing your ideas !
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
Yes, that is very complicated to make its place in this kind of app but I've already made an app in another (way less, but still) crowded field and it's now one of most downloaded in certain countries, with more than 1 million downloads. So why not, we have to try to see the result !

And yes, you're right, adding expenses manually is exhausting, but you don't have to worry about your data. Linking a bank account is huge ! Also, adding an online part make the app way more complex. As I really want my apps to be as easy and quick to use as possible, it would not match.

Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
Wowww that's interesting, I didn't even know this app ! Banking is clearly another level, I would never try to do that haha
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
You're totally right, I can't imagine giving access to my bank accounts either. That's why I chose to manually enter the expenses. Yes, you have to think about it every time, but I bet on the fact that it takes only a few seconds to add an expense in my app.

Unfortunately, I'm not able to find a better solution yet but maybe one day we'll find one !

Hey, thank you for your feedback ! I'm currently testing different prices in order to determine what is the best for everyone. Spoiler: It won't be the $9.99/month haha
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
I'm glad you'll try, hope it will help you !
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
I really hope it will help you ! Keep me up to date and tell me if you have any feedback :)
Nyoxide··on Show HN: I made a super simple iOS app to track expenses
Thank you very much ! Oh, that's a shame. I hope it'll one day be available on Android too.

I've started thinking about this app a few month ago (around October 2022). It took me a lot of time to iterate on design and improve it, plus I was working on others projects at the same time. I've got my final design around January 2023 and I've work intensively for ~1 month. Then I released it and started working on improvements, new features etc. I'm now satisfied with the available version, that's why I'm starting to share it :)
