Everyday software settled for less. We didn't.
Lu builds a small house of privacy-first apps that treat the ordinary — your notes, your meals, your messages — as something worth crafting beautifully. A few things, made exceptionally, that respect your time, your attention, and your privacy.
It grew cluttered and loud. It started charging by the month and paying itself back in your attention and your data. We think the things you touch every day — the first app you open in the morning, the last one at night — deserve better than the lowest common denominator.
They deserve the care of a finely made object.
Not more features — better ones. A few things, made exceptionally, that are yours: private, honest, and a genuine pleasure to use.
Each Lu app takes one ordinary part of your day and rebuilds it with the same obsession. Start with our flagship — the rest of the house is growing.
Your whole day in one calm app. Type or handwrite notes with Apple Pencil, annotate PDFs, read EPUBs, plan with a calendar and task board, scan documents, transcribe meetings, snap a meal to track calories, and solve with a real scientific calculator. AI summarizes, rewrites and quizzes you on your notes — synced across iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.
On the App Store → lunote.app →The Nokia classic, reborn on iPhone. An authentic monochrome LCD look meets modern game design — daily missions, streaks, unlockable power-ups, and swappable themes. Simple to start, impossible to put down.
On the App Store →Collaborative project management for small teams and families. Shared projects, assignable tasks, due dates, and real-time updates with cloud sync and push notifications — a calm, focused alternative to bloated tools.
On the App Store →A pocket toolkit of on-device AI. Fourteen private, lightning-fast tools — summarize, rewrite, translate, proofread, brainstorm and more — powered by Apple Intelligence, so your text never leaves the device. With Shortcuts, Widgets, and Apple Watch.
On the App Store →Traditional horary astrology, done properly. Ask a question and LuHorary casts a real astronomical chart for that exact moment, using authentic Regiomontanus houses and a precise astronomy engine. Thoughtful interpretations, beautifully rendered.
A calm, accurate companion for daily prayer. Precise prayer times with a hybrid calculation, a live Qibla compass, the 99 Names of Allah and a digital tasbih — with Widgets and Apple Watch. Beautifully simple, ad-light and private.
Effortless calorie tracking. Snap a photo of your meal and AI estimates the calories and macros — no database searching, no manual logging. Track your day and hit your goals, simply.
The companion every car owner wants. Save where you parked, track maintenance and fuel, log expenses, and navigate with voice guidance. Manage your whole garage — vehicles, service records, and documents — with CarPlay, Widgets, and Apple Watch.
Privacy-first messaging with no phone number. A PIN is your identity. Messages are end-to-end encrypted with CryptoKit and stored encrypted on-device, with offline Bluetooth mesh. Conversations that stay strictly yours.
More apps are always in the workshop. ✨
Not gold trim or a price tag. Restraint, privacy, and craft — the difference you feel every time you open the app.
On-device intelligence and end-to-end encryption. Your notes, meals, and messages stay yours — never sold, never the product.
Interfaces that do less, beautifully. Every screen is considered; nothing shouts for your attention.
Built by hand with SwiftUI and refined for years. The details aren't decoration — they are the product.
Each app does one everyday thing exceptionally well. No feature bloat, no dark patterns, no filler.
Purpose-built for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch — so everything feels genuinely at home.
A small studio that ships, listens, and refines. Software built to be kept, not churned.
Pick up on your phone, continue on your iPad, finish on your Mac, glance on your wrist.
