An independent app studio
Four apps, built one at a time.
theFour makes small, personal software — apps you keep, not apps that keep you. We design, build, and ship each one end to end, and we don’t start the next until the last one is something worth keeping.
One shipped. Three to come.
Daybound
A page a day, bound forever.
A relationship keepsake. Pick someone you cherish — a partner, a parent, a child, a friend — and fill one book page a day with drawings, words, and stickers. When the last page is filled, the book is complete: a keepsake you made together, a day at a time.
Coming soon to the App StoreIn the works. We’ll say more when it’s worth saying.
Sketched, not started. Daybound comes first.
An open page. Have an idea? We’re listening.
Why only four?
A small catalog, finished well, beats an endless backlog.
theFour is a deliberately small studio with a deliberately small roadmap. Four apps is enough room to explore, and few enough that every one gets our full attention — design, engineering, and the long tail of care after launch.
We build things that live close to people: keepsakes, rituals, daily habits. Software that feels less like a service and more like something you own.
