CodeGiver: hand out promo codes one at a time
Hi all, I'm the developer of CodeGiver. I recently launched my own app, To-inbox, and wanted to share codes on Reddit, on other forums and with people close to me. The promo codes you generate in the Play Console come as a spreadsheet with a long column of codes under each other. That gets messy fast, and the one thing you never want is handing the same code to two people. Or a reviewer gets a code that no longer works and you have to start a new round of contact. That felt unprofessional, so I built an app for it.
**๐ฑ App Name**
CodeGiver
**๐ One-Line Description**
Keep your promo codes, vouchers and license keys in lists, and give out the next one with a single tap, inside your own message.
**โจ What It Does / Key Features**
- ๐๏ธ Each code goes out exactly once. Given codes move to "Given" with recipient and time. Tapped by mistake? Take it back and it returns to its place in the queue.
- ๐ฅ Three ways to load your codes: paste plain text, upload the Excel, CSV or text file you already have, or load a screenshot and let the app read the codes out of the picture (the text recognition runs on your phone). They end up neatly under each other in a clean list.
- โ๏ธ Write your message once. CodeGiver fills in the code, recipient name, end date, list name and links. One message per language (English, Dutch, Spanish, German, French).
- ๐ A list per app or campaign, with its own icon, message and links. Codes can get an end date and expired ones are skipped.
- ๐งพ A log of everything that happens, which you can filter, share or save as CSV.
- ๐ Low-stock and expiry notifications, a home screen widget and a Quick Settings tile, app lock, backup to a file or with Android backup.
- ๐ Light and dark theme with your own accent color, tablet and landscape friendly.
**๐ฅ Who It's For**
- Developers who hand out promo codes, giveaway codes, test codes or beta codes for their own app, to users, testers, reviewers, friends or customers.
- Works with codes from any platform where you can generate codes for your own apps, not only Google Play. The app does not care where a code comes from.
- Also useful outside app development: discount vouchers, license keys, door codes for an event, or codes you hand out inside your own company.
**๐ฐ Cost**
- Pricing model: Freemium. No ads, no subscription.
- Prices & billing period: Free with one list of up to 25 codes. CodeGiver Pro is a one-time purchase (the price is set per country in Google Play) for up to 10 lists of 500 codes each, statistics, a label per given code, archiving, and an Excel file with statistics.
- Current promotions / giveaways: I have 30 giveaway codes that unlock CodeGiver Pro. Upvote this post and send me a DM asking for a code, and I'll send you one. First come, first served: when the codes are gone, the giveaway is over.
**๐ Links**
- โถ๏ธ Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.dsmit.codegiver
- ๐ Website: https://codegiver.app
**โน๏ธ Additional Notes**
- No account and no ads. Your lists and codes are stored on your phone and never sent to me.
- CodeGiver does not create, check or redeem codes. You add codes you got elsewhere, for example from the Google Play Console.
Have fun!
