March 12, 2026 I made tiny animated creatures live on your Android screen and I can't stop watching them

Okay so hear me out.

What if your phone had little animated characters just... living on it? Walking across your screen while you scroll. Hanging from your status bar. Bouncing around while you watch Netflix.

That's exactly what I built. Floating Buddies.

The weird part? You can turn your own pet's photo into one of these little guys. My dog is now permanently living on my screen and honestly it's the best decision I've made.

No subscriptions. No data collected. No BS.

Just tiny chaotic animated friends on your phone.

Took me months to build. Reddit hates me for trying to share it. So here I am 😅

If this sounds unhinged in the best way possible — come meet the buddies 👉

Drop your questions below, I built every pixel of this thing myself.

January 17, 2026 I built Floating Buddies — a fun Android overlay app

I made an app where animated characters live on top of your screen, gliding, walking, sleeping, and reacting while you use other apps.

I built it solo and would love feedback from other indie builders.

November 11, 2025 I built a simple Android launcher for my parents — now it’s helping thousands of others too ❤️‍🩹

A few months ago, I built a small launcher for my parents.

They found their phones stressful — too many icons, gestures, and pop-ups everywhere.

I wanted them to have a calm, easy way to make calls and send messages without confusion.

That little project turned into Senior Home – Easy Launcher, and to my surprise, thousands of people have started using it — seniors, minimalists, and even people who just want a quieter phone.

It’s:

📴 100 % offline

🚫 Ad-free and private

🧓 Big buttons and text

🌿 Simple, peaceful interface

If you know someone who struggles with complicated phones — or if you just like distraction-free design — you might enjoy it too.

I’d love your feedback, ideas, or stories from anyone who’s tried making tech easier for loved ones ❤️

    This is such a beautiful example of tech built with empathy. ❤️ You didn’t just solve a usability issue — you created something that brings peace of mind and independence to people who often get left behind by modern design. The offline, ad-free approach really shows you care about users, not engagement metrics. Love seeing thoughtful products like this making technology simpler and kinder.
