Mythspire

Mythspire

Mythspire is a portrait, one-thumb survivor game with the charm of a toy box and the crunch of an arcade. You steer a hero through swarms of monsters, and your weapons fire on their own. Survive as long as you can across a thirty-minute run made of five chapters, ending in boss fights. Everything is done with one thumb: drag to steer, flick to dash, and double-tap to fire your hero's ultimate. Level up during a run to pick weapons and passives, open chests for rewards, and unlock new heroes. Each hero has its own look, starting weapon, trait and ultimate. The game is single-player, works offline, and has no accounts, purchases or ads. No login is needed. This is an early test build. Feedback is most useful on how the controls feel (steering, the flick dash, double-tap ultimate), whether the screen is readable when the crowd gets thick, difficulty, and anything that crashes, stutters or looks cut off on your phone or iPad.

Sumi: Graph-based Outline Note

Sumi: Graph-based Outline Note

Sumi is a fast, native outliner for macOS, iPhone and iPad that works directly on a Logseq graph: plain Markdown files in a folder you choose, or in iCloud Drive. Journals, pages, links, backlinks, block references, tasks, simple queries, namespaces and properties work as in Logseq, and the files stay readable by Logseq and any text editor. This is an early beta. Sumi edits your files in place, so please try it on a copy of your graph first, or start with the sample graph. Running Logseq on the same graph at the same time is not supported: close one before using the other.

Trimothy

Trimothy

Trimothy is the Apple native, lightning fast, get-in-and-get-out video editing app of my dreams. The idea is simple: I don't want to create a whole project and library for every little video edit I need to make. Sometimes I just want to quickly combine two videos together, tweak the playback screen, change the audio or music, or add captions to a video. With Trimothy you can do all of these things, export, and then close it out leaving no trace behind. The app is, generally speaking, ephemeral (though I could add some concept of saving project files if that's something people really want.). You can add files by importing, dragging and dropping, copy and pasting, right clicking and "Open with", or from the share sheet.

Glimshelf

Glimshelf

Glimshelf is a privacy-first, offline-first comic and manga reader for your own library on iPhone and iPad. It needs iOS or iPadOS 18 or later. The beta is free, with Pro included throughout testing. Start with one of the included sample comics. No account or server setup is needed. Read a few pages, enlarge some lettering, then close and reopen the book. Was anything hard to find? Did you return to the page you expected? If you already use Komga, Kavita or OPDS, you can connect your library too. Try downloading a book and reading offline, then check your saved position after reconnecting. Glimshelf also opens local CBZ, CBR, CB7, PDF and EPUB files. Please use content you have permission to test. Tell us what worked and what got in the way through Send Beta Feedback in TestFlight or support@glimshelf.com. For a problem, include your device and OS version, what you tried and what happened. Use sample content in screenshots and remove private information. Never include passwords, tokens, private server URLs, filenames, titles, page images or account identifiers. This is beta software. Background downloads and sync depend on system scheduling and connectivity. Glimshelf does not upload local diagnostics automatically; Apple/TestFlight may separately collect enabled beta feedback and crash data under Apple's controls. See this build's What to Test notes for the detailed checklist.

Artifacts: Images + Bookmarks

Artifacts: Images + Bookmarks

Artifacts is an image + link organizer app for macOS and iOS. A completely native, local first way to save all that stuff you find across the web. The items you save are saved locally and synced to all your devices privately using iCloud. There is currently a free plan for up to 50 items and then a subscription to the Pro plan to unlock unlimited items. You will not be charged during the TestFlight, so don't hesitate to subscribe to test it out. We're still figuring out the exact limits and costs of the plans. This is definitely a beta, and we have a long list of things to polish, but should be mostly stable. Please send any feedback to support@artifacts.app. Thanks for testing!

Timefall: Journal App

Timefall: Journal App

Timefall is a journaling app I've been wanting to make for myself for a while. The idea is to have a journaling app that you write to your future self. With the app you write entries and they get delivered to you at a random time in a week, a month, or even longer. You choose a random delivery window and after you write the entry its not viewable till its delivered on the due date. On the due date you get a notification that you tap on and read the entry. The delivery process is a special way of revealing the entry to hopefully give you surprise and delight. You can share your entries if you wish with a nice share feature that creates a card like view of the entry. Timefall supports multiple journals, tags, and custom timeframes for when you will receive an entry. Hopefully this app will bring you some joy and make you even look forward to getting a notification from your phone. This is an early beta so there will probably be some bugs or rough edges to work through. Please don't hesitate to reach out and notify me. You can email me at: refactoredd@icloud.com. Thank you again for trying out Timefall hopefully it is an app that you enjoy and use regularly.

Symbolsaurus

Symbolsaurus

Designers and developers: search the massive SF Symbols icon collection with plain English phrases. Symbolsaurus is a thesaurus for Apple’s free icon collection, cataloguing all the button labels used on a given symbol. It maps technical names like “plus.square.on.square” to actual UI copywriting like "Duplicate". The more apps using specific word with an icon, the higher it ranks in popularity. The more unique ways a symbol in labeled in the wild, the easier it is to find. And if you see something missing, you can contribute to the thesaurus from right inside the app. It doesn’t have everything (yet), but it’s a work in progress and a labor of love. • Search for symbols by their technical names and their synonyms • Search and browse by app to see how popular apps are labeling their UI • See how popular apps use symbols in their UI when you’re writing your own button labels • Copy, share, or drag and drop symbols into other apps like Swift Playgrounds • Check OS compatibility for the ones you want to use in your app
