Simple, private tools, made in Switzerland
Alpine Lynx is me: an independent developer who lives in French-speaking Switzerland. I make iPhone apps and tools for everyday life. Each one solves one problem and tries to solve it well.
Who is behind it
One person, from the first sketch to the last email
- I design, code, test and translate every app.
- When you write to the site's email address, I'm the one who reads it and replies.
- I'd rather do a few things well than many things halfway.
Privacy
Your data stays on your iPhone
The apps work with no account and no server. Names, amounts, schedules and recordings stay on your device. Only what you decide to send leaves it. If an app ever needs a server, for example to share with a team, it will always use end-to-end encryption.
End-to-end encryptionData leaves the iPhone already locked. The server only stores locked data. Not even I can open it.
How the apps pay for themselves
You try first. You pay for the app, never with your data.
- InstallFrom the App Store, no account needed.
- Try14 days with everything unlocked.
- DecideIf it works for you, you pay for the app: subscription or one-time purchase. The price shows in the App Store, in your currency.
There are no ads and I don't sell data. I'd have nothing to sell anyway: I can't read your data.
What's already done
Paid apps, everything else free
The apps have a price. The calculators, guides, ebook and wallpapers on the site are free.
Seven languages
In seven languages, Romansh included
Switzerland has four national languages. The site is in Portuguese, English, French, German, Italian, Romansh and Spanish, and so are several apps.
