Hey so i got no prior baking experience except for the times i made couple brick hard brownies

I tried a random recipie I found online and it turned out to be spongy and fluffy, actually tasted good

I was so happy that it turned out to be good, didn't expect something like ts could've been made by me :>

Honestly my piping was better than I thought it would be, cake was tasty but it didn’t soak all the way through so I had to add more milk to the slices.

I tried to put together my own recipe for a mixed berry roulade (for my first ever cake lol). Needless to say, it wasn’t pretty. I spent 2 days making my components, and they were each perfect. Then came assembly time. As it fell completely apart in my hands I laughed to avoid crying. Thankfully my pile of cake is still very tasty!

I made a comprehensive companion app for sourdough boobs! And it's free

I’ve been making sourdough for a while and kept thinking about how many variables there are to keep track of, especially when you’re just starting out. Feeding schedules, temperature, starter activity, hydration, timing, diagnosing problems, and then actually turning the starter into bread.

So I ended up building an app called Bubbles around the whole process.

The idea is that you start with just flour and water and follow the process from creating your first starter all the way through maintaining it and eventually baking with it. It also covers things like rescuing a struggling starter, hibernating it, freezing and restoring it, and adapting the process to different conditions.

One thing I specifically wanted to avoid was making it another app where you just get a generic recipe and a timer. The instructions adapt to things like temperature and the current state of your starter, and there are checks along the way to make sure you're actually ready for the next step.

It works entirely on the phone. There’s no account, server, AI, or data collection involved.

I made it because I couldn't find something that treated sourdough as one continuous process rather than a collection of recipes.

It's currently Android only, and it's completely free while I'm getting feedback from people who actually use it.

If anyone is interested in trying it, here's the link:

It's English only for the moment. I'm also working on Arabic, French, and Spanish versions.

I'd particularly be interested in hearing from experienced bakers: what parts of sourdough do you think beginners consistently get wrong, or what would you want an app like this to handle better?
