Free Apps, Built With AI, Released Without a Catch.

I bought Goodnotes and used it extensively, but I kept encountering areas where I wished things worked differently – from general interaction to working with tables and other elements. InkLume is my answer to what this kind of application would look like if it were designed around my own workflow. My goal is to make it available across devices without requiring another purchase for every platform, while also allowing users to keep and back up their data in their own cloud storage.

As a technical diver, I bring a lot of equipment to a dive site, and forgetting just one important item can end the dive before it even begins. Checklist started as a simple way to keep my preparation under control instead of relying entirely on memory. Because arriving at the water only to realize that a critical piece of equipment is still at home is not a great way to start the day.

An app very similar to this one was actually one of the reasons this entire project started. I simply wanted a reminder that would make me get up and stretch regularly while working at my computer, but once again I ran into a very basic application tied to a yearly subscription. Timer does exactly what I need: it reminds me that there is more to life than sitting in front of a screen and writing code.

Technical diving is not only about the dive itself, but also about planning it and understanding the relationships behind that plan. I have always been interested in how changing one parameter affects another, what happens if a decompression gas is lost, and how different scenarios change the entire dive. Decolab is therefore not just a planning tool, but my personal laboratory for exploring decompression and answering all those “what if?” questions.

While travelling with friends, we often used expense-sharing apps, but over time I became frustrated by advertisements and by several things I felt were missing from the experience. Settlo is built around my own idea of how this kind of application should work: fast, clear, and flexible enough to handle more complicated situations when needed. Running the backend does cost money, so time will tell whether other users eventually help support it; if not, I will simply keep using it with my friends.

This is one of the most practically important applications in the entire project for me. Everyday life is full of things that expire, require regular servicing, or have deadlines I do not want to think about constantly but definitely do not want to miss. LifeCue is meant to be one place where I can store them, configure exactly how I want to be reminded, and then stop carrying those dates around in my head.

Sometimes I go through periods when I need my day to be highly structured, see my activities clearly, and get the simple satisfaction of marking something as done. I used a similar application before, but not frequently enough to justify paying for another long-term subscription. TempoLane is my own take on lightweight planning, routines, and keeping track of what I have actually accomplished.

During design and development work, I surprisingly often need to do something extremely simple: resize an image, change its dimensions, and use it on GitHub or somewhere else. Yet even such a basic operation can mean searching for an online service, closing ads, or running into paid limitations. CanvasForge exists because simple image operations should actually be simple.
