What kinds of apps or products do you wish existed?

Jonathan - Jun 2 '19 - - Dev Community

I want to find out what kinds of apps/tools people personally wish existed, so that they (and maybe even friends or family) could use them and enjoy them.

Personally, around late 2017, I had three itches I wanted to scratch, and I managed to scratch them all within 1 year, thanks to the power and ease of the Web and React platforms.

  • Fast emoji lookup by keyword, which to this day iOS, Android and Windows don't seem to support (though MacOS definitely has it) – this turned into Emojipedia²

  • Integrated calorie and cost tracking app (I wanted to lose weight while saving money) - this turned into EatPayLove, which I use to this day.

  • An easier way of sending quick "canned" replies to people who sent me texts or emails – this turned into Pasta, which I use occasionally, but really need to improve and make more usable before I can enjoy it and use it regularly.

I have several other ideas on my wish-list, and I'm looking to incrementally improve the above three as well.

The neat thing about scratching your own itch is that, even if it doesn't take off and get popular, you still feel like you achieved something, so you can keep up the motivation and momentum.

So... what's your personal itch? What app do you wish existed?

And are you going to make it happen one day, or maybe even today?

Leave your thoughts!!!
