@debugagent Thanks 🤩 will do the following and release it asap!

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

3rd iOS rejection.

Android: live on Play.
iOS: “too similar to other apps.” 🙃
Built it solo. No templates. Only app on my account.

Rebuilding the listing now and resubmitting.

Devs, what’s the most ridiculous rejection you’ve ever gotten?

@climaday Appreciate it. For LumiNote it's this: drop in any PDF, it reads it aloud and highlights each word as it's spoken. You can follow along by ear and eye at once. That's going on screenshot #1.

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

@artisticlucyyy So, this is my girlfriend's drawing not mine. We went on a date once and she painted me this masterpiece ✨

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

@JE4NVRG So, i will be adding a trial screen on my onboarding page and i will change the metadata on my submission. It will definitely solve the issue.

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

@GodTrigger0 Exactly my plan. New first screenshot = a page mid-sentence with the current word lit up. Plus the app now opens straight into a sample you can hear, no sign-up. If they still can’t tell the difference after that, I’ll ask for a call 😅

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

@sudoaptaj hopefully the fourth one makes it 🙏

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

@Joshua_WD hope so man 🤞🏻

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

Unpopular opinion: Fable 5.3 won’t be about being smarter.

It’ll be about being cheaper.

The model race is over. The price race just started.

Agree or disagree?

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

Reading 80-page PDFs before exams is brutal.

So I built LumiNote: it turns any PDF into audio with synced word highlighting, and you can chat with it to ask questions.

Now live on Android 👇

If you work in construction, property management, or COI tracking:
What's the worst certificate you've had to chase?
Reply and I'll run a redacted one through it when the playground is live.

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

Most COI tools see a checked "Additional Insured" box and mark the vendor compliant.
That checkbox is legally worthless.
The ACORD 25 itself says it confers no rights. The proof is a separate endorsement page (CG 20 10/CG 20 37).
I'm building an API that actually checks for it👇🏻

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

What it returns:
• PASS / FAIL / NEEDS_REVIEW
• every deficiency in plain English
• the source page for each field
• a draft email to the vendor's broker
The LLM extracts. Deterministic code decides. The model never makes the pass/fail call.

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

Building in public is humbling.

6 hours fixing bugs.
Zero new users.
Still showing up tomorrow.

Indie hackers, what's your biggest challenge right now? 👇

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

https://t.co/LyEH5T5Dqx is one of those tools that makes deploying apps feel almost effortless.

No unnecessary complexity. Just ship your code, deploy globally, and focus on building.

Developer experience matters more than people think.

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

built an app that reads pdfs out loud.
now waiting for two trillion-dollar companies to read my app.

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

something’s cooking 🍳

new game. multiplayer. one of you is lying.

more soon ❤️

Every US contractor has someone manually checking insurance certificates against contracts. Slow, error-prone, expensive when missed.

Building an API that returns the verdict, not just extracted text.

LumiNote is in deployment. COI API is the main focus now. Phase 0 shipped.

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

Google Play: "we'll review it in ~7 days"

Apple: *stares at my app for weeks without opening it*

LumiNote is officially submitted on both stores. Now we wait. ⏳

[Dhanesh Naikare @DannyySeoo]

I built LumiNote 🚀
