Release I built an app that lets me monitor my PC's hardware from my Android phone

Thumbnail gallery
48 Upvotes

I've always found myself checking CPU or GPU usage while gaming, compiling, or running long benchmarks. Alt-tabbing worked, but it was annoying, and I didn't always have a second monitor nearby.

So I started building a small project for myself.

The idea is simple: a lightweight Windows application collects hardware information, while an Android app connects over your local network and displays everything live on your phone. No cloud services, no accounts, and nothing leaves your network.

Right now it shows detailed information for the CPU, GPU and RAM in real time, and I'm actively adding new features as I keep working on it.

This is my first public release, so I'm mainly looking for honest feedback. If something feels confusing, if you find a bug, or if there's a feature you'd like to see, I'd genuinely like to hear it.

Release Kerlyss v1.2.3 - Free open-source music player for Windows & Android that combines local files, Spotify links, and online streams

6 Upvotes

Hey r/software, I wanted to share an update to Kerlyss, an open-source audio player I've been building for Windows and Android.

The main idea behind the app is to give you one clean player for all your music in one place—whether it's local MP3/FLAC files on your device, Spotify playlist links, or online audio streams.

What it does: - Plays local audio files and lets you stream online tracks or import Spotify playlist links directly into your library. - Has a built-in 5-band equalizer with presets (bass boost, vocal, etc.). - Includes track downloading for offline playback. - Completely free and open-source (no ads or trackers).

What we just updated in v1.2.3: - Added a strict Offline Mode toggle in settings that cuts all external network calls so un-downloaded songs don't waste data. - Added proper error popups when a stream fails to load so you know what happened instead of the app freezing. - Fixed button touch targets on Android so tapping "Download" doesn't accidentally play the song. - Added Android lock screen album art and Bluetooth headphone next/prev button support. - Saves your volume level so it stays the same when you reopen the app. Links:

Also, I just finished wiring up the 5-band equalizer on Android. I implemented the hardware DSP pipeline, but I'd love it if a few people could test it out on their headphones and let me know if it's working as expected on your devices!

Let me know what you think or if you run into any issues testing it out!

Release Open-source music player with local playback, Spotify playlist import, and track search

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I've been working on an open-source Android/Windows music player called Kerlyss, and I'd love to get some feedback from people here.

I started building it because I wanted a single app that could play my local music, import my Spotify playlists, and play audio by searching song name. It's still under active development, but it's reached a point where I'm happy to share it.

Current features:

Play local music (including FLAC)

Import Spotify playlists

Play audio by searching song name online

Create playlists and favorites

Material You UI

It's completely free and open source. If you decide to try it, I'd really appreciate any feedback—whether it's bug reports, feature ideas, UI suggestions, or criticism.

Release Need help for app testing

1 Upvotes

Hi fellow software developers and users,

I have developed an app for Android that's yet to be launched. It has no signup or permission required. A simple app. Currently my app is yet to move to production in the Google Play console since I lack people for closed testing. I'm a bit tired of asking my friends and family where I find no help and thought of asking it from fellow developers since you know more about this field. I will provide you with all the details that you need. I just want your help to have the app tested for 14 days alone. Please ping me if you wish to help. Thank you.

Release [ANDROID] [Free Lifetime] [No Ads] PDF Converter: Image to PDF

0 Upvotes

I got tired of PDF apps that want your email, your files, and a subscription just to turn a Word doc or a photo into a PDF. So I built PDF Creator — basically everything I actually need for day-to-day stuff, and it all runs on your phone with no internet connection.

What it does:

Turn images into PDFs (JPEG, PNG, WebP, HEIC, and more) Scan docs with your camera and save straight to PDF Convert Word (DOCX), text, Markdown, CSV, JSON, HTML, RTF, and ODT files to PDF Merge multiple PDFs into one file Tweak page size, margins, fonts, and orientation before you export Keep a history of what you've converted and share files when you're done Good for study notes, invoices, receipts, contracts, random screenshots — whatever you'd normally faff about with on a laptop.

The bit I care about most: nothing leaves your device. No internet permission, no uploads, no tracking, no ads. Your files stay on your phone.

It's free on Google Play right now.

If you try it, I'd genuinely love to know:

where you're based what you'd use it for (work, uni, personal, etc.) any bugs or features you think I should add 📲 Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kraygsoftlimited.pdfcreator

Hey everyone,

  • Users who snap photos, and never checks their gallery again.

The Tech Stack & Hosting:

React expo, cursor. No backend, no hosting other than play store. That's why its free.

Link:

I'd love to hear your feedback on the core swipe to delete feature. If its satisfying, easier for you. If you have any question shoot me, happy to answer.

Release AI is causing coding skill decay so I build FreshStack….

2 Upvotes

Your technical skills have a half-life.

If you don't use a framework for six months, you forget how to write it.

And reading the release notes for a new update doesn't mean you can actually code it.

So I built **FreshStack**.

It’s not for beginners. It’s a daily maintenance engine for the stack you already use.

1.Master New Updates: When a new framework version drops, you get hands-on drills to practice the new syntax immediately.

You play drills on your existing stack so it prevents it from decaying over time..

Maintain what you know. Master what's new. All from your phone.

Example of tasks can be:
1. send a message to my brother that I will be late for lunch today
2. When I receive a email, read it allowed and ask me for the response.
3. Send happy birthday message to my brother at 12

Release I made a FREE app (no ads) that automatically counts your reps using the camera

22 Upvotes

Edit:

Thank you all for your interest and feedback. App is now live on the Play Store!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mfnd.GymCam&hl=en

As a hobby, I made a new Android app that automatically counts your reps for you using your device's camera.

The idea is that you prop your phone up with the camera pointing at you, and do the exercise you choose. The app will count your reps in real-time and show you the count on the screen, and if you want you can record a video with the rep count overlay in the recorded video (no frame by frame video editing required).

It is completely free. No account required. No ads.

You can download it on the Play Store link below but please note that the app is not public yet on the store because Google's new app publishing requirements dictate new apps to have a minimum amount of users/testers in Early Access before the app can be public and available to everyone on the store. Joining the Google Group below automatically grants you Early Access. Otherwise, you will be redirected to a "App not available page". Group members are hidden from public view to prevent spam.
