About

me%20with%20mac

Hi, I’m Urs — an indie developer from Switzerland.

I build apps for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS, with a strong focus on productivity, useful little utilities, and the occasional quiz app. I love what I do, and I’m proud of every app I put into the world.

My journey started many years ago with SwissQuiz, which became surprisingly popular in Switzerland. Recently, I set myself a personal goal: to dive deep into Swift and SwiftUI and completely rewrite the original app (which was written in Objective-C) in my spare time. That project turned into Swiss Quiz 2 — and along the way, I ended up releasing other apps as well. As it often happens with indie development, the path evolves.

Craftsmanship, Simplicity, Privacy

What matters most to me is craftsmanship: creating apps that feel right at home on Apple platforms. I focus exclusively on the Apple ecosystem, because I believe great native apps come from embracing the platform — not from building multi-platform compromises.

I also care deeply about privacy. My apps avoid ads and collect as little data as possible. I want people to feel comfortable using what I make.

A bit more personal

When I’m not coding, you’ll probably find me with a coffee in hand (I’m definitely addicted), doing some kind of workout, or spending time with my two wonderful kids.

I used to compete in triathlons up to Ironman distance — these days I’m more into HIIT, functional fitness, CrossFit-style training, and HYROX.
