Show HN: Nyola – A daily Pareidolia tool (draw what you see in clouds)

Hi HN,

I’m a solo developer from Switzerland.

I built Nyola as an experiment to counter "doomscrolling". The idea is to use Pareidolia (the psychological phenomenon of seeing faces in random shapes) to trigger active imagination instead of passive consumption.

How it works:

Everyone gets the same cloud photo every 24h.

You use native drawing tools (PencilKit) to trace what you see.

You unlock the gallery to see how others interpreted the same noise.

Tech: It is built with SwiftUI and CloudKit. No ads, no tracking.

It's a simple project, but I'd love to hear your feedback on the concept.
