Native apps for Mac, iPhone and iPad

Small apps,
made with care.

Starvale is where one independent developer keeps a growing set of native apps. Each does a single job well and stays out of your way.

OUT NOW

Four apps,
ready today.

Every one has its own site, with the full tour, support and privacy policy.

    There is always another idea on the bench. New apps land here first.

HOW THEY’RE MADE

The same care,
in every one.

  • Native, all the way down. Written for the Mac, iPhone and iPad in Swift, not a web page in a window, so each app feels at home where it runs.
  • Yours stays yours. No accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. Where an app can sync, it is off until you turn it on, and it goes to your own iCloud.
  • One maker. Every app is designed, built and supported by the same person. Write to support and that is who answers.
