Hi fellow app scouts, |
This week we found an app already at 20K downloads after 12 days, a new photo app jumping on a familiar AI trend, and a 37-year-old solo founder who launched his latest game just 2 days ago. |
Let's get into it. |
Fish Audio • Voice app |
|
Fish Audio turns text into AI voices for videos, podcasts, and audiobooks. |
It's basically the mobile version of Fish Audio's existing voice AI product, but made by an indie developer who copied the name and turned it into an app. |
It launched on August 20 and passed 20K downloads in its first 12 days. |
OmniAero • Photo app |
|
OmniAero is jumping into a trend we've seen work before: one distinctive filter becomes the whole app, then social media turns it into a trend. |
Bleach Bypass did exactly that with its 2000s digicam and 2010s aesthetic, hitting 70K downloads in 20 days. |
It launched on August 16 and is already Top 100 in Graphics & Design across 20+ countries including the U.S. |
Bidstitch • Vintage app |
|
Bidstitch uses AI to tell you what your vintage finds are worth. Take a photo of the tags and stitching, and it estimates the item's age and market value. |
It started as a TikTok page built around viral vintage content. Now they're turning that audience into an app. |
It is already Top 100 in Reference across 30+ countries. |

Snail Walk • Walking game |
|
Snail Walk turns your daily steps into a survival game. A giant snail named Bob follows you along the path, and your run ends when you stop walking. |
It launched just 2 days ago, and its 37-year-old solo founder is already posting about it on X. |
Morning Clock • Alarm app |
|
Morning Clock is made for people who sleep through ordinary alarms. |
To stop it, you solve a math problem, type a phrase, shake the phone, or get up and walk. |
It launched on August 13 and is already #88 in the US. |
