Sorted App + Build Lab

Free supplement tracker for real routines. Built with AI; sharing the prompts, mistakes, and release lessons behind it.

[Sorted App + Build Lab @getSortedAppios]

Two things live here:

🌱 Sorted — a free iOS app to track what you take, log doses, spot overlaps, and see what's running low. Calm, not clinical.

🛠️ Build Lab — $0.99: exactly how I shipped it as a non-developer with AI.

Sprout keeps me honest.

@compileandpush honestly the daily "log it" tap, and that's on me. I kept bolting on features instead of nailing the one basic thing people actually open the app for. all that extra stuff made the simplest, most important action easy to lose.

I'm not a developer. I built a supplement tracker with AI and shipped it.

the code took a few weeks. deciding what the app refuses to do took months. that second part turned out to be the whole product. 🧵

@sreenandhanpp congrats on 1.2k 🚀 non-dev here who shipped a free iOS app with AI (a supplement tracker), still slightly stunned it's real. happy to connect.

@Sablinchik_ @X honestly same. I started with zero plan, just wanted to see if I could actually make the thing exist. rooting for you and Sentia 🙂

[Sorted App + Build Lab @getSortedAppios]

funny part: it feels more trustworthy because it does less. people notice when an app isn't quietly upselling them on their own health.

it's free. I'm building the rest in public, follow along if that's your thing 🌱

[Sorted App + Build Lab @getSortedAppios]

that one rule made every other call for me. no "recommended" dose. no streak guilt. no "your body will thank you." just your own data, plus government reference numbers with the source attached.

@kedytcom the international angle is the one nobody talks about. everyone knife-fights for the US top 100 and ignores that ranking in Poland or Chile is wide open. did the non-US installs convert as well, or just rank easier?

@mddanishyusuf @fayazara $177 MRR + 50 on trial at 15 days is a real curve, not a vanity number. and scoring the domain for $0 is the kind of unfair advantage you don't plan, you just say yes to. congrats 🙌

[Sorted App + Build Lab @getSortedAppios]

@iamsnrjnr @X iOS, non-developer, shipped anyway 😅 built Sorted, a free app to track what supplements you log, what overlaps, what's running low. half of it was me arguing with AI at 1am. good to be here.

@imsethidev 180 followers + 80k impressions in 2 days is wild. took me way longer, and Sprout (my app's mascot) still judges my code daily 🌱 hi from another builder.

@juleslabador @markgurman the "no account, just send a link" call is the whole product. every other split-bill app dies the second it makes 4 friends sign up. you skipped the part everyone loses people on.

[Sorted App + Build Lab @getSortedAppios]

@andrewzacker @jackfriks the "nobody cares when you're failing" part is actually the useful filter. the 3 people who still reply when your numbers are bad are the ones worth keeping. found mine that way.

[Sorted App + Build Lab @getSortedAppios]

@Sayyidalijufri the $4K bar finally clearing the others on that chart is such a good feeling. way better than any 'projected' line. congrats 🥹

@compileandpush @davidbaseeth solo, every change goes past a few AI personas before I merge — one on security, one hunting edge cases, one playing the user trying to break it. couple minutes, done. honestly I talk to them more than humans these days 😅

@Daniel_Farinax 400+ tools that can spin up their own build agents — "app as orchestration layer" is where this all goes. the hard part won't be the tools, it'll be the UX that keeps 400 of them from feeling like 400. voice-first, or a command surface?
