Let me tell you about the feature I'm most proud of. And how it came from a very personal frustration. I kept forgetting to log my meals. Not because I was lazy — but because life happens. You eat at 7pm, you log it at midnight. By then, the app would stamp it as "today" even though tomorrow had technically started. So I built backdated logging. Every meal and activity entry now has a "Logging for?" selector at the top: — Today — Yesterday — 2 days ago — Or a calendar picker for anything older But here's the detail I obsessed over: if you log for a past date, a quiet message appears beneath the selector. "Logging for a past date may affect your streak calculations." Honest. Respectful. No punishment — just transparency. That feature took me an afternoon. With a traditional team it might've taken a week of back and forth on edge cases, stakeholder reviews, dev tickets. I decided it was needed. I described it. I built it. This is what AI-assisted building gives you — the ability to act on good instincts immediately. Product people: what features have you wanted to build but kept getting deprioritised? I'd love to hear them. 👇 hashtag#ProductDesign hashtag#FeatureDesign hashtag#AITools hashtag#BuildInPublic hashtag#Cursor hashtag#FitnessApp hashtag#UXDesign
