ScreenSafe
Privacy utility · Android
A more privacy-conscious screen experience — designed to help notice when someone may be looking at your screen in public.
Independent software studio
Useful ideas deserve exceptional execution. We build thoughtful software that solves real problems and creates better digital experiences.
Scroll to exploreChapter 02 · Why we build
Most software is built to be impressive. We are interested in software that is useful.
The work starts with a problem somebody actually has — a screen read by a stranger on a train, a quote calculated in a van with no signal, a work session that never quite begins. From there it becomes a product decision, a design, an interface, and finally something that runs well on an ordinary phone.
We keep the scope small enough to finish, the ambition high enough to matter, and the promise honest enough to keep.
Chapter 03 · How we work
Six movements, repeated for every product. Not a ceremony — the shortest path from a real problem to something that works.
We start with a situation somebody recognises, not a technology looking for a use.
Who has this problem, when they have it, and what they are already doing about it.
The interface is decided before the feature list grows. Fewer decisions for the user, clearer ones for us.
Built to run well on ordinary hardware, with no dependency on a perfect connection.
Real devices, real conditions, and a willingness to remove what does not earn its place.
A release is a checkpoint. The useful version is usually the fourth one.
Chapter 04 · The product universe
Three products, each with its own character and its own reason to exist. Artwork on this site is original illustration — it is not an app screenshot.
Privacy utility · Android
A more privacy-conscious screen experience — designed to help notice when someone may be looking at your screen in public.
Focus & relaxation
Create space for focus — an immersive forest atmosphere with layered rain, forest and fire ambient sound.
Productivity · Field trade tool
Bring clarity to job costs — an offline-first job costing and material calculator concept for the trades.
Status labels are verified, not assumed. Each product states whether it is available, in development, a prototype or planned. Features and release timing are confirmed before they are described as shipping.
Chapter 05 · The principles
Six commitments that decide what gets built, what gets removed and how the result is described.
01
If a feature does not solve the problem it was added for, it does not ship. Simplicity is a decision we make repeatedly.
02
On-device processing, local storage and no-account design are engineering choices, not marketing lines. We state what a product does and does not collect.
03
Readable type, real contrast, keyboard operation and visible focus states are part of the definition of done, not a later pass.
04
We design for mid-range Android hardware and average connections, not for flagship phones on fast Wi-Fi.
05
Status, availability and limitations are stated plainly — including when the honest answer is “not yet”.
06
Products are maintained after launch, not abandoned at version one. Feedback changes the roadmap.
Chapter 06 · The future
We are a small studio with a long list. If you have a problem worth solving, or you want to know more about what we are building, the door is open.
