Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Arvind, the maker of almostcart. Shopping apps make it easy to go from “that looks interesting” to checkout. I wanted to explore a different experience: browsing what catches your eye, building a cart, and choosing to let it go. almostcart is a simulated shopping app. You can browse food, fashion and gadgets, add items to a cart, and release it. No payment is collected for those items, and nothing is delivered. Beyond the cart, you can: • Complete daily Tiny Swap challenges to distract yourself. • Track your real-world subscriptions. • Connect with friends and compare your almost insights. • View detailed insights about your simulated shopping experience. • Add real-life checklist of products that you want to buy. The core experience is free. Almost Pro is an optional one-time lifetime upgrade for Insights, custom challenges, and additional subscription and friend slots. I’d love your feedback: does releasing a simulated cart help you pause, or would another feature be more useful when an impulse hits? Also, please do comment if you want to add another category or products that you prefer for simulated shopping experience. Thanks for trying almostcart. I’ll be here to answer questions and hear what needs improving.

🚀 We're officially live on Product Hunt!

It's exciting to finally share almostcart with everyone here!

What started as a simple thought — "What if we could enjoy shopping without actually buying anything?" — has turned into a real app.

Now comes the most interesting part: seeing how people actually use it.

If you've had a chance to try almostcart, I'd love to know:

👉 What was your first impression?

👉 What's one thing you'd change or improve?

I'll be around throughout launch day, reading your feedback, answering questions, and taking notes for future updates.

Thanks for checking out almostcart and being part of its journey! ❤️
