Drooid: News from all sides. Annual free for limited time

I am the developer behind Drooid, an AI-powered news app that helps you see all sides of the story, left, right, and center through concise summaries from diverse, credible sources.

We are building Drooid to fight fake news and bias in news reporting, and I want to offer maximum value to every user, even without a premium plan. But for power users who wish to gain deeper insights, Drooid’s AI offers in-depth analysis that breaks down why different outlets cover the same news differently. Additionally, we offer AI-voiceover services for premium users.

The premium plan is usually $49.99/year, but for a limited time, I’m offering a free 1-year subnoscription.

The code for the Annual Free trial is:
DROOIDGONEFREE (Hurry up, there are limited codes available)

To redeem the code, click on the In-depth button, which will show you an article with a detailed analysis of the news. The first article is free for everyone. Close the article and click on another in-depth button. You will see a paywall; you can redeem the code there.

If you enjoy the app, a 5-star rating on the App Store would mean the world 🙌
I am also open to suggestions, and want to know how you feel about this idea.

Cheers!!

💡 Real-life examples where it shines:

🏃 Out jogging and remember a task? Send it from your Apple Watch — it’s waiting when your Mac wakes.

🚆 On the train and think of something to do later? Send it, and it pops up the second you’re back.

💼 Mid-work context switch? WakeMinder saves you from forgetting what you sat down to do.

🌐 Reading on your iPhone? Share it to WakeMinder — it opens automatically on your Mac when you wake it.





We’ve all been there:

\- You open your Mac

\- The screen wakes up

\- Your brain… blank

That’s where WakeMinder comes in.





What it does:

✅ Shows instant reminders the second your Mac wakes - no digging through notifications

✅ Keeps your next move intentional, not reactive

🪶 New: Add floating reminders that stay visible above all windows \- perfect for pinning an important note or focus phrase while you work





Over 14,000 users are using it daily, and many with ADHD say it’s been a game changer for staying focused and intentional.





🔥 50% OFF — until 31 October 2025

Open Source Yoink

https://i.redd.it/xjb3zl8px5xf1.gif

I liked Yoink, I also use Android and wanted a way to transfer files very easily between them, so I thought to strike two birds with one stone and built Dropp, a Mac dropzone tool for temporary file storage and transfer with android (fully open source).

I'm sure everyone knows Yoink, it's basically a shelf for your Mac to temporarily hold a file (I mostly use it between alt-tabs from browser->finder->browser). You can drag/drop files like you would with Yoink, but I've also developed an alternative option to sign up with google and have a small (100MB) dropzone to share your files across devices, where you also need the android app. Not sure how many people would want the second part but I use it which was the entire purpose of this project anyways (also probably gonna be the part that breaks the most).

Here's the link if you wanna give it a try: https://dropp.yangm.tech/ (The download button will direct you to releases in github)

Yes its vibe coded (prob at least 300 prompts). it was surprisingly difficult to figure out drag and drop in macos.

Looking for app-based permission manager

Handling app permissions is a pain in the butt and I'm hoping there is an app out there that lets me control all the permission for each app, sorted by app instead of permission. Does this exist?

https://redd.it/1of8hhq
@macappsbackup

What should it be?

I’m ready.

I’m gonna vibe the next big app.

Just give me an idea for something simple that I can make because “I needed it.”

Make sure it already exists in 100 different forms - except for my version.

I’m either gonna vybe or vibe. That’s really all I need to consider.

How much should I charge for the monthly subnoscription?

We launched our first web app Keepsake! So far we have about 30% more mac users than windows. Our platform allows families to write their stories together and turn them into a printed book

Hey folks 👋 I’m Rob. My co-founder and I just launched our web app Keepsake just now, a collaborative writing platform where families can capture stories together and turn them into a printed book. We’ve had a super encouraging launch so far, and a lot of the comments have come from other SaaS founders which has been awesome, but we haven't got so much feedback, rather people showing us how their B2B Product could help us.
Also, what I have found interesting is that a dramaticly large portion of initial users are mac users! Been rocking MacOS since snow leopard, so UX, clean UI and nice animations have been a focus for us, I still find it interesting that mac users are currently a majority for us!

I’d really love to hear what you think of the landing page experience specifically. Does it explain what we do clearly enough? Anything confusing or missing? If you’ve launched before, what helped you tighten your messaging or improve conversions?

Here’s the Product Hunt page if you want to see the launch details:

https://www.producthunt.com/products/keepsake-3

And our website:

https://www.keepsakeproject.co

There is a launch code on product hunt, but I haven't put it in the post as honest feedback here is the main thing I’m looking for. Happy to answer any questions about the build, Supabase, real-time editing, animations… anything. Thanks in advance!

Neatify: Your Downloads folder organized automatically, forever

You're working on multiple projects. Every file you download triggers the same question: "where should this go?"

Or worse: you open your Downloads folder and it's complete chaos. 500 mixed files. You feel overwhelmed just looking at it.

**What Neatify does:**

Automatic file organization without the complexity of existing tools.

* Project-based sorting - Set up a project in 3 clicks. Every image automatically goes to Project/Images, PDFs to Project/PDFs. Zero manual sorting.
* Saved rules - Create different configurations for work, personal, or creative projects. Switch between them from the menu bar in one click.
* Quick Sorter - Point at any messy folder and organize it immediately. No setup required.
* Bulk organizer - 500 mixed files? Reorganized into clean categories (Visual/Images, Audio, Code, Documents) in seconds.
* Menu bar integration - Runs silently in the background. Your files stay organized 24/7 without you thinking about it.

**Technical details:**

Built entirely in Swift + SwiftUI. Native macOS performance, fully sandboxed, uses only NSOpenPanel for folder access. The challenge wasn't the sorting logic but creating an interface simple enough that you never need documentation.

Took 4 months of development and 152 beta testers to get the balance right.

**Why I built this:**

I tried the "powerful" alternatives. They're overwhelming. I wanted something that does one thing really well: organize your files without making you think.

🚀 **Just launched on Product Hunt today!** If Neatify solves a problem for you, your support would mean a lot: [https://www.producthunt.com/products/neatify?launch=neatify](https://www.producthunt.com/products/neatify?launch=neatify)

**Website:** [https://neatifyhq.com](https://neatifyhq.com)

Available on the App Store (pricing varies by region)

Happy to answer questions about the development process or technical decisions.

How to create dynamic adjustment?

So I have been looking at an example from this app - https://youtu.be/d83-ujLBV8?si=mv05iqiXKx8TwV5

And I have been curious as to how does the child nodes that are created from a parent node automatically adjust their position as the output keeps streaming in the parent node. I have been trying to find a way to make this work in React Flow as part of a Nextjs project but have been unable to get it work. Every time I try to create a child node, it overlaps on an existing child node or does not automatically adjust its position with respect to parent node or other nodes.

Will be a big help if someone can help!

Is there an app for Mac that saves and restores desktop layouts/mission control spaces?

I'm looking for a way (or app) on macOS that lets me save specific workspace layouts for real or virtual desktops, which I can later restore with a click.

For example, I might want one desktop with two browsers open side by side, another desktop with two Finder windows, one more with an open calendar, and one with a spreadsheet. I'd like to save this layout as a "workspace" that I can quickly switch to when needed with just one click. So, for instance, if I need a different desktop setup—like one with a DAW, a document, and a Finder window—I could quickly switch to that configuration.

Does anyone know of an app or solution for this?x
