No Shit, Sherlock.

No Shit,
Sherlock.

I'm Tommy Albinsson. I've spent the last ten years leading engineering teams. In my free time, I design and build independent products, from the initial idea through to the code.

No accounts
Neither app asks you to make one.
No ads, no feed
And no cross-app tracking, in either.
Yours, offline
The library lives on your phone.

CouchTime

On the App Store since February 2026

Keep your place in every show, get one confident pick for tonight, and look back on the year.

  • Free, on iPhone and iPad
  • A one-time purchase, CouchTime Plus is not a subscription
  • No account needed, signing in is optional, and only buys backup
  • No ads, and no cross-app tracking
  • English and Swedish
Two CouchTime screens in dark mode. Tonight, with one pick — Colin from Accounts, a 2022 TV series — on an amber card, the reason “Because you pinned Clarkson's Farm.”, a Watch tonight button beside Not for me, and three alternatives below it. Behind it, Up Next: shows in progress with pinned entries for Clarkson's Farm and Silo, each with a Mark as watched button.

Trovva

In development — not released, and no date announced

Paint codes, filter changes, packing lists, what is in which box. Write it once, find it later.

  • No account, and no Trovva server to have one on
  • Until you share a household, it makes no network requests at all
  • Sharing is opt-in, rides your iCloud account, and is not a backup
  • Built for iOS and Android, with a web companion
  • English and Swedish
Two Trovva screens in light mode. Everything, an A-to-Z of one household: an access point in the hallway ceiling, a bike service kit, a boiler service with its model number, a camping trip and its packing list, and the hallway paint with its colour code. Beside it, the hallway paint entry itself, with the colour code S 0502-Y and a button that copies it.

Things both apps already decided.

Your device first
The library lives on the phone and works offline. CouchTime's cloud backup is optional; Trovva has no server to back anything up to.
Nothing to sign up for
Neither app asks you to make an account, and neither has an advert, an endless feed, or cross-app tracking. Signing in to CouchTime buys you backup and the web companion, and nothing else.
Made by one person
Tommy Albinsson, in Sweden. TypeScript, Expo and SQLite on the device, in English and Swedish, light and dark, at whatever text size you have set.

Other things I build.

Some ideas are too interesting to leave as ideas. This is where the more playful ones end up.

I'm wrong.
