About
Tools we built for ourselves, shared with everyone.
Alpps is an independent studio making mobile apps for iOS and Android. Everything we release started as something we needed in our own week. AI helps us build them; the ideas come from real life.
What we believe
Design is not decoration
Interface, wording and performance are one thing. A product that is fast, clear and quiet is a designed product, whatever it looks like.
We are the first users
Nothing reaches a store until it has survived our own daily use. If we stop reaching for it after a week, it was not worth releasing.
AI is the workshop, not the product
We build with AI because it clears the work that does not need a human. What ships still has to feel considered and quiet. The shortcut is in how we make it, never in what you get.
Software should age well
We choose durable foundations over fashionable ones, and we keep releasing updates after the launch week is over.
Accessibility is a requirement
Our applications are built to WCAG AA and tested with screen readers, larger type and reduced motion. If someone cannot use what we make, it is not finished.
Every language, properly
We build for the whole world and treat localisation as part of the design rather than a final pass. No clipped labels, no untranslated corners, no market too small to bother with.
