Hey Product Hunt, I'm Alvin, an indie developer based in Sweden.
Today I'm launching my latest iOS app, Pinly.
I built this because I kept arriving at a store or a specific part of town and completely forgetting why I actually went there. Standard time reminders didn't work for me since my schedule is always changing.
So I made Pinly to be as straightforward as possible. You just open the map, drop a pin, and the app pings you the exact moment you get to that location.
It has a clean interface, reliable location triggers, and time-based reminders as a backup. There is also a Pro version if you need custom trigger radiuses, unlimited pins, or quiet hours.
I bootstrapped this myself and focused really hard on making the UI distraction-free.
I'd love to hear what you guys think, especially about the onboarding and the overall feel of the app. I'll be hanging out in the comments all day to answer any questions.
Thanks,
Alvin
Wow, I just wanted to drop a quick comment to say a massive thank you to everyone so far. 🙏
Hitting nearly 100 upvotes as a solo indie dev is completely surreal for me. The feedback and questions in the comments have been incredibly helpful, and it's just really cool to see people validating a problem I had, and the solution I made for it.
I'll be hanging around for the rest of the day, so if anyone else has feedback, feature requests, or questions about how I built it, please keep them coming!
Love the "drop a pin" UX for location reminders, it's one of those things that should've existed natively years ago. The map-first approach feels way more intuitive than typing an address into a text field. Curious how you handle geofence accuracy in dense urban areas where GPS can bounce around a lot?
This is definitely me.
Especially when it's something so important and I rush there without noting it down.
I get there and buy something completely different from what I needed to get.
