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.

    I am terrible at this. I have had to build the functionality of this app through other means. If this was available, I would have used it instead. I am going to use it now.

    Sometimes you have to accept you need help, in my experience. Better this than losing people.
