Most of the apps I build are made for an audience of one: me. They fix small, everyday annoyances in my own life, so they wouldn’t mean much to anyone else. That’s the point, though. When you can describe what you need and have AI help you build it, you don’t have to wait for someone else to make the app you want.
Here’s one example.
Every time a new schedule came out, I had to add my workers’ shifts to Google Calendar one at a time. It was slow, fiddly and easy to get wrong, and it was always a job I put off.
So I built an app to do it for me. Now it works like this:
When I’m done, the app makes a file with all the shifts and opens my web browser right to the Google Calendar page where I import it. A chore I used to dread is now just a few clicks.
Your YouTube subscriptions, as a reading list. No algorithm, no account.
TubeReader is a small Windows app that collects the YouTube channels you choose into folders you arrange, and shows you what you haven’t watched yet. No recommendations, no Shorts, no sign-in. Just your channels.
For Windows 10 and 11. $5 buys the complete app, with new versions included.
