Developer @eduardfausgil says he reverse-engineered Pocket, criticizing it for being ad-laden, having poor microphone quality, frequently misspelling names, and lacking any agentic features — then rebuilt it himself and claims a 10x improvement. KlausCodes amplified it, saying "he literally made it 10x better." A notable indie-dev playbook: find official app weaknesses and differentiate with agentic capabilities.
