A family of beautifully
crafted apps.
Lu — short for Luxury. A small studio crafting privacy-first apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch — each finished with the same obsessive care you would expect from a finely made object.
Eight apps, one standard.
Live apps first, then everything in the making. Each entry is built to the same measure of craft.
LuNote Flagship
Your entire knowledge workspace in one app. Handwrite or type notes, annotate PDFs, read EPUBs in a calm reader, and file everything into nested folders. On-device AI summarizes, rewrites, and answers questions about your notes — with Apple Pencil, iCloud sync, and a native Mac app.
LuSnake On the App Store
The Nokia classic, reborn on iPhone. An authentic monochrome LCD look meets modern game design — daily missions, streaks, unlockable power-ups, and swappable themes. Simple to start, impossible to put down.
LuHorary Next up
Traditional horary astrology, done properly. Ask a question and LuHorary casts a real astronomical chart for that exact moment, using authentic Regiomontanus houses and a precise astronomy engine. Thoughtful interpretations, beautifully rendered.
LuTask Next up
Collaborative project management for small teams and families. Shared projects, assignable tasks, due dates, and real-time updates with cloud sync and push notifications — a calm, focused alternative to bloated tools.
LuGenie In development
A pocket toolkit of on-device AI. Fourteen private, lightning-fast tools — summarize, rewrite, translate, proofread, brainstorm and more — powered by Apple Intelligence, so your text never leaves the device. With Shortcuts, Widgets, and Apple Watch.
LuBite In development
Effortless calorie tracking. Snap a photo of your meal and AI estimates the calories and macros — no database searching, no manual logging. Track your day and hit your goals, simply.
LuDrive In development
The companion every car owner wants. Save where you parked, track maintenance and fuel, log expenses, and navigate with voice guidance. Manage your whole garage — vehicles, service records, and documents — with CarPlay, Widgets, and Apple Watch.
LuPin In development
Privacy-first messaging with no phone number. A PIN is your identity. Messages are end-to-end encrypted with CryptoKit and stored encrypted on-device, with offline Bluetooth mesh. Conversations that stay strictly yours.
“Lu” is short for Luxury.
Everyday software deserves the same care as a finely made object — considered materials, precise details, and a finish you can feel. That conviction runs through every Lu app, from the first pixel to the last animation. Approachable on the surface, uncompromising underneath.
Principles behind every pixel.
We don't chase feature counts. We chase the feeling of software that simply works — quietly, respectfully, and beautifully.
Human-first design
Interfaces that feel calm, familiar, and quietly powerful — considered down to the last detail, never cluttered.
Privacy as a principle
On-device intelligence and end-to-end encryption wherever it matters. Your data is yours — never sold, never mined.
Native to Apple
Purpose-built with SwiftUI for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch, so every app feels at home on your devices.
Focused, not bloated
Each app does one thing exceptionally well. No dark patterns, no clutter — only tools that respect your time.
Made with love
We ship, we listen, we refine. Every release is a small act of care, built to stay a joy for years.
Made for everyone
Localization, accessibility, and inclusive defaults are part of the plan from day one — not an afterthought.
At home on every Apple device.
Pick up on your phone, continue on your iPad, finish on your Mac, glance on your wrist.
