"Sounds"? You are an expert in measuring value by vague comments?
Okay:

  • The expense splitting app I made for myself, my friends, and maybe other people (no ide if it will be picked up), after I was managing a giant spreadsheet of our new year's trip costs. Now my app calculates everything, of any complexity, and it is used.
  • The stock trading site has everything that I need from a stock trading site (to look for opportunities to buy), but I needed 3 or 4 before
  • The weather app I made not because there's not enough weather apps, but because each and every app wants your data for 1000s of their partners, so I made my own thing that shows weather.

There's foss apps for weather that don't collect all that data, if you're using Android it's usually a good idea to first check f-droid for utilities like that as it's likely someone else already built it, and it's usually still receiving fixes and updates (the page shows you that kind of information).
