Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a project I recently started working on called Tend (an Android app built to help you automate the scheduling of your social life).

The idea originally came from a discussion on r/fossdroid about how hard it is to keep in touch with friends and extended family without relying on algorithm-driven social media or bloated, cloud-based business CRMs.

Most "Personal CRM" apps require you to upload your contacts to a random server. I wanted something that was 100% offline, private, and simple.

What it does: You can think of it as setting up cron jobs for your relationships.

  • Contact Cards: Create dedicated profiles for people you want to keep up with (Name, notes, phone, socials, etc.).

  • Custom Frequency: Set a "check-in" schedule (e.g., every 14 days, monthly, quarterly).

  • Smart Reminders: The app will notify you when it's time to reach out.

  • 100% Offline: Everything is stored locally on your device via SQLite/Room. No accounts, no telemetry, no cloud sync.

I’d love your feedback! Since this is in the initial development phase, I’m looking for feedback on the features and the UI.

Finally someone who read my mind AND had time to implement it 😆 i had a similar idea (although probably with a little different scope) a while ago and thought 'finally a useful project to learn this mobile development thingamabob' but never came around to it. Hopefully ill come around to test your app! (No promise unfortunately, the broodling turns 4 weeks next Wednesday, so I got other priorities atm)
