About Tiny Crew and its creator

For myself, first

I enjoy the process: trying things, reworking them, finding solutions and getting the little details right until something becomes useful.

I use my own apps. The people closest to me are my first users and toughest critics. They tell me when something is awkward, confusing or simply unnecessary.

I have other work and projects, but Tiny Crew is my main pursuit and a very personal story. I think about it a lot, keep finding new ideas and love watching them become working apps.

It’s especially rewarding when something I made for myself turns out to help someone else.

Why do the apps have human faces?

There’s no elaborate philosophy. I just like human faces on phone icons. To me, they feel more alive than abstract symbols and complicated invented names.

That’s how Freud, Marx, Pavlov, Cicero and the others came about. Each has a task, a colour and a character. Together they make a little crew. Tiny Crew.

What matters to me

Respecting your time

I don’t want to build mechanisms whose only purpose is to keep someone in an app longer.

Giving you control of your data

I want people to understand what they save and who they give access to, and to be able to take their materials away or delete them.

Finding my people

I don’t think every app needs to suit everyone. I’d rather make something useful to me and a few other people than try to anticipate every possible situation.

Nice to meet you!

I love what I do. Tiny Crew is an important part of my life, and I hope that care comes through in the apps. If something here helps you too, I’ll be very glad.
