Pop open StressBuddy for a few minutes and just breathe. Make something beautiful. Smush colors around. Whatever. It’s all good.
Enjoy the hidden features, if you're one of the few that can find them. ;)
Hi PH!
80-90% of StressBuddy was written using ChatGPT at a time when I was stuck awake at night. Initially it was put up as a web experience but after seeing my daughter play with it in her doctor's waiting room I decided it should be an app. It costs a dollar but I do have a limited amount of coupon codes available if you need it for free, which you can find here: https://app.promopoodle.com/prom....
I think it would be a fun story to tell if a paid app mostly written by ChatGPT gains popularity.
The main activity is mindless drawing. Because I miss the earlier days of the internet where exploration and discovery were part of the experience, I hid a few features in the app. There are no accounts, no subscriptions, no ads, no in-app purchases and it works offline. Just a clean and pure way to clear your brain using a simple activity.
I like using StressBuddy as a sort of meditative alternative to doomscrolling. It's a fun visual to space out to. I hope you enjoy it, too!
If you could tell your friends and family about it, I would greatly appreciate it 🤗
Wow, this is such a refreshing take on stress relief! Love that you found inspiration from your daughter and turned it into something meaningful. 🎨 Exploring and uncovering hidden features sounds super fun! Can't wait to try it out and escape the doomscrolling for a bit. Kudos to you, @avizuber, for creating such a unique space for creativity. I'll definitely share it with my friends and family!
Congrats on the launch! The concept of mindless drawing as a meditative escape is brilliant, and I love that you've made it a clean and simple experience without ads, subscriptions, or in-app purchases.
