SnapStar

Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m the maker of SnapStar. The idea was simple: I wanted a way to instantly generate "flex-worthy" selfies with celebrities without needing Photoshop skills. The result is SnapStar—an app that uses AI to randomly pair you with a star, complete with a satisfying "scratch card" reveal animation. I fully "Vibecoded" this app in under 24h using Antigravity (Google's AI IDE). It was an incredible experience moving from idea to a cross-platform (iOS & Android) Expo app so quickly. Under the hood: AI: Google Gemini (specifically the "Nano Banana Pro" model 😉). Tech: Expo + React Native. Payments: A huge shoutout to RevenueCat for making the subscription integration seamless. No Auth, No DB and No Backend. Why Paid? I'm a fresh college grad bootstrapping this with a limited budget. Since the Nano Banana Pro API is expensive to run, the app is paid-only ($6.99/wk or $99.99/yr). This ensures high-quality results and sustainability without spammy ads. My "Why": My goal is to fund my parents' 25th Wedding Anniversary celebration in May 2026. Every subscriber gets me closer to making them proud! ❤️ I’d love for you to try it out! Let me know which celebrity you got matched with in the comments below! 👇 PS: Christmas Event coming soon! Stay tuned. 🎄
