About
Handful Apps is one person.
I'm Nikola. Every app starts with a problem I ran into myself and could not find a decent app to solve.
I trained as an engineer and spent my career in supply chain, reliability and operations integrity: the work of making sure something still works when nobody is watching it, and knowing what happens when a part of it fails. It turns out to be a good way to think about the software people use every day.
So every app here is built to the same few rules. Some are free, some are a single purchase and some are a subscription, and each one tells you plainly which before you pay. Small on purpose.
The rules
-
Clear pricing
Whatever an app costs, you see it plainly before you pay.
-
No adverts
Nothing inside these apps is trying to sell you something else.
-
No tracking
No analytics, no trackers, and nothing about you sold to anyone. This website included.
