Droog – Rain Alerts
(English below! :) Ik ben al maanden bezig met een nieuwe app, en hij is totaal anders dan alles wat ik tot nu toe heb gemaakt. Een soort love letter aan Nederland, en aan al die dagen dat we hier door de regen lopen en fietsen: een regenapp, speciaal gemaakt voor Nederland. En zodra je hem hebt ingesteld, heb ik het zo gemaakt dat je hem nooit meer hoeft te openen. Ik leg het even uit. Als je hier woont, weet je dat iedereen een fiets heeft, en een buienapp. Handig om te weten wanneer je het kantoor uit moet, de hond moet uitlaten, of nog een rondje kunt bestellen. Het probleem is dat de grootste buienapps je locatiegegevens verkopen aan adverteerders en databrokers. En wat krijg je ervoor terug? Een beetje middelmatige, ouderwetse meldingen op basis van gratis overheidsdata. Daarom heb ik Droog gemaakt: een app die je droog houdt én je privacy beschermt. Zo werkt het: Droog verschijnt vanzelf op je lockscherm als er binnen een uur regen komt, en verdwijnt weer als de bui voorbij is. Je hoeft dus niks te openen. Je kunt Droog ook als widget op je lockscherm of Apple Watch zetten. Je exacte locatie blijft altijd op je telefoon, en de servers van Droog gebruiken zo min mogelijk data. Het ontwerp is geïnspireerd op risoprint, een beetje onnauwkeurig, net als radardata. Droog is gratis, inclusief de widgets en Apple Watch-complicaties. De automatische meldingen op je lockscherm zitten in Super Droog. Dat kost €0,99 per maand, zodat ik de servers kan betalen. Iedereen krijgt vijf gratis regendagen om Super Droog te proberen, zonder proefabonnement. Droge dagen tellen niet mee. Droog zit de komende weken nog in beta. Ik zou het echt superleuk vinden als je het wilt proberen en me laat weten wat je ervan vindt, via de chat in de app. Geniet nog even van de laatste zonnige dagen, en blijf droog! ※ English ※ I’ve spent the last few months making a new app, and it’s unlike anything I’ve made before: a love letter to the Netherlands, and to all those days walking and biking through the rain here. It’s a rain app made specifically for the Netherlands, and once it’s set up, I’ve made it so you never need to open it again. Let me explain. If you live here, you know everyone has a bike and a rain app. It’s how you decide when to leave the office, walk the dog, or order one more round. The problem is the biggest rain apps sell your location data to advertisers and data brokers. And what do you get in return? Mediocre, old-fashioned alerts built on free government data. So I made Droog, an app that keeps you dry and keeps your location private. Here’s how it works: Droog shows up on your lock screen when rain is coming within the hour, and disappears once it’s passed. Nothing to open. You can also add it as a widget on your lock screen or Apple Watch. Your exact location never leaves your phone, and Droog’s servers use as little data as possible. The design is inspired by risograph prints, a little imprecise, like radar data itself. Droog is free, including widgets and Apple Watch complications. The automatic lock screen alerts are part of Super Droog, €0.99 a month to cover the server costs. Everyone gets five free rainy days to try it, no trial subscription, and dry days don’t count. Droog is in beta for the next few weeks, and I’d really love it if you tried it and told me what you think through the in-app chat. Enjoy the last sunny days, and stay dry!

Trimothy
Trimothy is the Apple native, lightning fast, get-in-and-get-out video editing app of my dreams. The idea is simple: I don't want to create a whole project and library for every little video edit I need to make. Sometimes I just want to quickly combine two videos together, tweak the playback screen, change the audio or music, or add captions to a video. With Trimothy you can do all of these things, export, and then close it out leaving no trace behind. The app is, generally speaking, ephemeral (though I could add some concept of saving project files if that's something people really want.). You can add files by importing, dragging and dropping, copy and pasting, right clicking and "Open with", or from the share sheet.

Symbolsaurus
Designers and developers: search the massive SF Symbols icon collection with plain English phrases. Symbolsaurus is a thesaurus for Apple’s free icon collection, cataloguing all the button labels used on a given symbol. It maps technical names like “plus.square.on.square” to actual UI copywriting like "Duplicate". The more apps using specific word with an icon, the higher it ranks in popularity. The more unique ways a symbol in labeled in the wild, the easier it is to find. And if you see something missing, you can contribute to the thesaurus from right inside the app. It doesn’t have everything (yet), but it’s a work in progress and a labor of love. • Search for symbols by their technical names and their synonyms • Search and browse by app to see how popular apps are labeling their UI • See how popular apps use symbols in their UI when you’re writing your own button labels • Copy, share, or drag and drop symbols into other apps like Swift Playgrounds • Check OS compatibility for the ones you want to use in your app

Sumi: Graph-based Outline Note
Sumi is a native outliner for Mac, iPhone and iPad that works directly on your Logseq Markdown graph: plain files in a folder you choose, or in iCloud Drive. No database migration, no account, no sync subscription. Journals, pages, links, backlinks, block references, tasks, queries, namespaces and properties work as in Logseq, and the files stay readable by Logseq, Obsidian and any text editor. This is a beta. Sumi edits your files in place, so please try it on a copy of your graph first, or start with the sample graph. Running Logseq on the same graph at the same time is not supported: close one before using the other.

Mark - Markdown Notes
Mark is a calm Mac notes app for markdown files that already live in a folder you share with someone else — on OneDrive, iCloud Drive or in a git repo. Point Mark at that folder and you get a clean sidebar, file list and editor on top of your existing files. The files on disk stay the source of truth: properties in YAML frontmatter, links as [[wikilinks]], nothing locked into a proprietary database, so the same folder keeps working in Obsidian, Finder or Claude Code.
