MY PERSONAL HOBBY PROJECT iOS & macOS

Apps that feel good.

I build small, lovingly crafted apps for the Apple ecosystem — iPhone, iPad and Mac. Software that started out just for me, and is now here for anyone who values the details and the quiet joy of using something well made.

THE PHILOSOPHY

Why CozySoft?

Almost every tool at CozySoft started as a personal problem I couldn't find a beautiful solution for. I didn't want bloated feature lists or cold, technical interfaces.

I only build for the Apple ecosystem — iPhone, iPad and Mac. Not out of dogma, but because it's where I feel at home and because the platform stands for the same values I care about: craftsmanship, consistency, and respect for the people using my apps.

I wanted software that feels like a handcrafted piece of furniture: functional, honest, and made with love for the details.

Apps are more than features — they're companions. They shouldn't stress us out, they should support us and bring a little joy.

HOW I GOT HERE

Why this is possible for me now.

Honestly? I was never a real programmer. Decades ago I dabbled in BASIC, JavaScript, Perl and PHP, and later I picked up a little Python — but software that feels like what CozySoft makes would have been completely out of reach for me on my own.

What I am good at: describing ideas and concepts precisely, questioning them, testing things and throwing them away until they're right. That's exactly where modern AI tools and what people now call vibecoding come in. I describe what I have in mind; the AI helps me translate it into working code. Then I look, test, refine — and piece by piece, apps emerge that feel exactly the way I want them to.

The result isn't „AI-generated software". It's software where every design decision, every feature and every tiny detail comes from me — just with a tool that is finally fast enough to keep up with what's in my head.

I'm genuinely curious where this journey will take me.

“Honestly, I build these apps just for myself — exactly the way I'd always wished they existed but never quite found. That others now enjoy them too is what makes CozySoft such a special hobby for me.”
