Surprise shadow drop! I’ve been stealth building Strophe, a native iOS ebook reader with on-device text-to-speech. Turn any ebook into an audiobook, import any web articles or text, multiple voices, sound scapes, and way more. No listening limits, no account needed and works offline. I've built this app for myself to replace ElevenReader, Instapaper, Speechify, Apple Books, etc. Just submitted it to the App Store. Available later this week for all iOS devices!

When I started working on @BasaltApp I had one thing in mind: to follow @kepano & @obsdmd's file-based approach but for financial data. I wanted to users to own their data and be able to do what they want with it which is why I came up with a format that anyone can feed the docs to Claude/Codex and build tools around. github.com/tbergeron/basalt-…

You know that when you're working on small details like the dmg background, you're getting closer to the finish line. Massive progress this week. Exciting times! @BasaltApp still not too late to get into early access! basaltapp.com #buildinpublic

Just received the "Action required by 20 March 2023" email from @Twitter. Here is my "hot take" on the Twitter 2FA fiasco/thing 👇

v1.0.8 is now waiting for review! Lots of optimizing, chatgpt API upgrade, markdown support and more! Spent hours optimizing UI performance 😅 React Native can be such a pain sometimes 😠 We’re almost at 500 users 🎉 check it out and say hi to her @AivaSays #buildinpublic

Added tables and code blocks to @AivaSays! She’s now much better at providing examples, data tables, lists, etc. Gonna be released this week alongside a bunch of bugfixes and an API upgrade (now using #ChatGPT’s newly available API) #buildinpublic #indiedev #indiemaker

Aiva v1.0.7 is out! Featuring a fresh new coat of paint, an updated prompt list now featuring programming prompts (new prompts are now highlighted) and so much more. Please check it out and leave us a review🙏 #buildinpublic #indiedev @AivaSays bit.ly/3DDqKzV

Modernized the style of the bubbles and the bottom text input of our @AivaSays #AI virtual assistant app. Pretty happy with the results. Let me know what you think! #buildinpublic #indiedev #indiehackers @IndieHackers #GPT #OpenAI #ChatGPT
