Design first
Ten years of product design. Every screen starts in Figma and is checked on a real iPhone before release.
Small apps. Calmer phones.
Appshift designs and builds iPhone apps that put a gentle pause between you and the feed, and give that minute back to your mind and body.
- Designed and built solo
- Native iOS with Screen Time

Our apps
Small apps, one idea.
Each one makes room for you first, and keeps what’s yours private.

Hi, I’m Aleksandr
Ten years designing for SaaS and mobile — Instadapp, MarsX, and a long list of products other people shipped. For the last year and a half I have been shipping my own instead. Appshift is where they live.
