I wonder how software development would be like if we had coaches like this.
But these new builders have a tool, they don’t suddenly have a newfound creativity.
I think with time we will stop seeing what we consider AI slop, simply because we know it’s not worth sharing. Instead great creative people will share very impressive things that simply wasn’t possible to build before.
Also, do you really understand what the numbers in that spreadsheet mean if you have not been participating in pulling them together?
- Create cards directly from camera input in the app.
- Create multiple cards from a source text, so that she can just supply a text body and the llm figures out what is important, and then the user can just discard cards they do not find useful.
Yeah, it's very barebones at the moment, if you swipe the name of a deck left on the list of decks, you should be able to delete it, and I haven't added the ability to delete individual cards yet. Shuffling is not possible, adding it to the backlog.
So I started building something simple: a tool that lets me turn highlights into flashcards with as little friction as possible.
Just select text on your iPhone, share it with the app, and it creates a flashcard using AI — a Q&A pair and a short summary. You can browse cards in the app, or show them on your Home Screen, Lock Screen, or watchface of your Apple Watch.
This is my first iOS app, and building it has been a great learning experience. I’m using Supabase for the backend which have been mostly great.

Looks like share extensions are not generally available inside the Books app, which is why my app is not showing up.
Thank you for making me aware of the issue!
I've built Komihåg [1] to try and combat this: Select any text on your iOS device and a flashcard is automatically created for you, and the app is then showing you the cards on the Home Screen / Lock Screen / Apple Watch Face.
I haven't gotten to implement any sophisticated scheduling algorithm yet but will definitely do that eventually.

I'm in a similar situation as you (developer having to do marketing) but have not gotten as far, so far I've only posted on a few subreddits and here on HN. Have you found any nice learning resources?
You select some text with your phone and share it with my app, then the shared text is reformulated to a flashcard (with the help of a llm).
You can then browse your flashcards in the app, but I’m also working on ways to show the cards to you with less friction: Like on the phone lock screen or on the face of your watch.
