Useful
An app should be worth the room it takes up on your phone. Our apps are built to act like tools you know you can count on.
Independent app studio
HemlockEast
We make iPhone apps out of Raleigh, North Carolina.
We make human friendly iPhone apps and try hard to get the details right. They’re quick to open, easy to figure out, and they leave your data on your phone. Your data is yours.
How we work
A few things we care about
Private
Your data stays on your phone wherever we can manage it. No ads, no trackers, and nothing to sell, because we don't collect it in the first place.
Minimal
We'd rather do one thing properly than ten things halfway. Just what you need to acheive your goals, and no nonsense to get in the way.

RunApp (working title)
A workout tracker for people who just want to see their runs and rides.
It records your runs and rides and keeps a simple history of them. No feed, no followers, no kudos. Just your own training, laid out so you can actually read it.

NightGlass
Hold up your phone and learn the sky above you.
Point your phone at the sky and NightGlass shows you what's actually up there: the stars, planets, and constellations above you right now, from wherever you happen to be standing.
