Update 0.13 is finally out!
Now with cloud sync support, an updated profile UI, and stability improvements.
The app uses our self-developed OMRIX account system, so you get full privacy. No data is collected, sold, or tracked.
The app is also still offline-first!

Currently working on the biggest feature EVER: Cloud synchronization! 🔥
This feature will be ready and available somewhere in Q2 2026.
#BuildInPublic
I’m also designing it so other devs can eventually integrate Omrix into their own apps too!
I've got some information on the account system the app will use 👀
I'm developing a whole new system on my own namend "Omrix". I've planned many more apps and all of them will use the "Omrix Account System".

I'm currently working on the next big thing for the second phase of Questify Early Access: Accounts and Quest synchronization!
The development for the API and Backend has started today and will be completely implemented in Q1 2026.

Also: Don't forget to leave any feedback for me. Every feedback helps the app grow!
Just checked my Google Play Dashboard and found out, 15 people around the world are daily driving my app.
It is not a small number, but it's really meaningfull to me. 😁
To those who are using it: I see you and I'm coding the next update for you right now!

It’s GO time. 🚀
The massive Questify 0.12 update just hit the Play Store.
Remember: This update brings a fresh database (wipe), so you are starting on a clean slate.
#AndroidDev #Questify #Live #IndieDev
It’s been a long grind to get this rewrite done.
I'll post here again as soon as the Play Store approves the update. Thanks for sticking around!
Small details: The app icon got a new color to match the new professional theme (same shape though). I also cleaned up the side menu structure.
Also did some housekeeping and cut features that weren't great yet.
Search is gone (was kinda useless tbh). Reminders are disabled for now. I didn't want to port a "meh" system to the new architecture just to have it.
I’ll bring them back when they are actually good.
Important Head’s Up: Due to the database rewrite, existing quests will be wiped this update.
I know, that sucks. Sorry! 🙇♂️ But: I added a new migration system, so this will never happen again. One clean slate, then your data is safe forever.
Under the hood, I migrated the whole logic to Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP).
Why? It creates a much cleaner architecture and makes the app way faster. The Quest Lists specifically are much smarter now. Plus, this opens the door for other platforms later (iOS/Desktop).
First thing you'll notice: The "gamified/playful" look is gone.
I decided to shift the UI to a strictly professional, clean Material 3 design. The Edit, Create, and Detail screens are completely new. It feels less like a toy and more like a tool now.
Just pushed the button.
Update 0.12 has been submitted to Google Play. Now we just have to wait for the review process to finish.
This isn't just a standard patch, I basically rewrote the app from scratch. Here is what’s actually happening👇
Porting the notification logic to KMP is complex, and I didn't want to hold back the entire update any longer just for one feature.
Notifications will return in a follow-up patch. For now, it's time to get the new core features into your hands.
The finish line is in sight. 🏁
Only the reworked 'Edit Quest' screen is left to implement. Once that’s merged, the new Early Access update goes live.
Important note: This build will ship without notifications.

This means you’ll be able to plan your ventures at your desk and complete them on the go. The ecosystem is growing. 🍏
Big screen, same Quests.
While working on the shared codebase, I realized a desktop version was within reach. So, I’m officially building a macOS client for Questify.
#MacOSDev #Productivity #KMP #Questify
Honestly, the custom alerts felt useless and cluttered the UI. I replaced them with a smarter system that triggers based on due dates with fresh, engaging texts. The app now does the thinking for you.
Rebuilt the Quest creation flow from scratch.
New: Subtask reordering. Gone: Custom notifications.
#IndieDev #BuildingInPublic #KotlinMultiplatform
The only technical debt remaining is moving notifications and permissions to the shared module, but that won't impact general usage.
Good to be back on stable ground.
#KMP #IndieDev #Questify
Milestone reached: The Android build is now successfully running on the KMP architecture.
Operational status is back to 100%, plus I added some minor UI polish during the rewrite.
Focus is on building a solid, cross-platform foundation right now.
#KotlinMultiplatform #AndroidDev #IndieDev #Questify
This is a necessary step to ensure that a future iOS release can happen much faster and more efficiently without rewriting the entire codebase.
Since I have to refactor existing features to make them compatible with KMP, the next update will take some time.
Just a quick status update: Questify is very much still in development.
I am currently migrating the app’s architecture to Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) with Native UI.
Dipping my toes into iOS development. 🍎
Translating the Material 3 design to iOS is an interesting challenge. This screen is currently just a hollow shell – purely visual, zero functionality.
A fun experiment, but full focus stays on the Android launch.
