indie apps ยท one dad ยท zero venture capital

Apps made after bedtime.

iOS and Android apps built by one dad, mostly companions for the games I actually play, occasionally whatever else sounds fun. Small, useful, and made with more care than free time.

Whatever game I'm sinking evenings into next probably needs a companion app. This slot's for that.

the story

Why "DadMadeAnApp"?

By day I work in IT. By night, once the kids are in bed, I build apps and play games. Mostly companions for the mobile and PC games I sink my own hours into, because if a tool I want doesn't exist, I'd rather build it than wait for someone else to.

"The cat? My wife drew it. The mismatched eyes stuck, so now the whole site runs on blue and pink."

Every app that ships from here gets built, tested, and shipped by one person who also had to find a missing shoe this morning. No ads-first design, no dark patterns, no selling your data. Just small apps that do their job.
