Exchange Apps

[karanguni]

I code apps for fandom exchanges because the AO3 interface is atrocious.

Automagic App Generator

Exchanges can generate their own apps automatically via https://autoao3app.fandom.tools.

If you want to search for requests across all exchanges, use https://autoao3app.fandom.tools/#/everything.

Bugs?

Please leave a comment here, stating which app/exchange, what the bug is, and steps I can take to reproduce it. It helps if you leave me your browser type, but I don't necessarily need it. Thanks! :)

Requests

If your exchange operates in a way that needs more features in the app, please leave a request here detailing what that might mean!

I currently only code standalone apps for Yuletide. If you are a mod who needs non-app code, feel free to DM me here or on Discord.

Caveats

Apologies in advance if I am slow in responding: I generally am not fandom active except around the Yuletide season. Thanks for understanding!

Known Issues

Nothing major at the moment.

Announcements

Due to AO3 rate limiting changes as of 24 Feb 2025, scraping might be unsuccessful more often, but should still work eventually.

This is SUCH a cool app!! Thank you for all the time and energy you put into creating it and maintaining it!

The Formula 1 RPF fandom is running a kinkmeme right now, but signups don't close for quite some time so the prompts never get bookmarked, although anyone can claim and fill a prompt at any time. As there are currently over 1100 prompts, searching it manually is a pain. Would it be possible to bookmark the prompts before signups close, or maybe scrape the date that the prompt was requested so the searcher only had to look at the prompts from that date? Or something else that you think of to make finding the prompts on AO3 easier after someone has used your excellent app to find a prompt they want to claim?

Hello! I sympathise with the problem. Hmmm, if prompt memes have prompts that can be filled at any time, I'll see what I can do about bookmarking, but it may be a bit: I am, alas, about to do some major travel, so it might be a week before I can really sit down with it. For typical exchanges, it creates more headaches than it solves to let people bookmark while prompts might move around, sadly!

Awesome, thanks for your quick response! Have fun with your trip and don't worry about having to wait to look at it - we've been getting by so far. :D

Travels have sunk me, but I haven't forgotten this - it might just be till mid-February that I get a moment, sorry!
