Why these are free

They are not the business

We build websites, themes and client systems for a living. The apps are things we wanted for ourselves, so there is no revenue target attached and no reason to put a paywall through the middle of one.

Your data stays yours

The ones that hold anything personal — Kalend, VaultFlow, SmartFolio — keep your data on your device or in your own iCloud, never on a server of ours. There is no account to make because there is nowhere for it to live.

No ads, ever

None of these carry advertising and none of them sell usage data. If an app here ever needs to make money it will do it by asking you, not by selling you.
