Privacy policy →Eleven apps built · Delhi, India
We make apps that do one thing well.
Every app starts from the same idea: it should be useful the moment you open it, it should work without an account, and whatever you put into it should stay on your phone. No sign-ups, no profiles, no selling your data to anyone.

Why these exist
Most small apps are built to extract something from you.
Not all of them, and not on purpose. But the business model usually ends up here.
An account you did not need
A countdown app does not require a server to count days. The sign-up exists so somebody owns a list of email addresses — and so your data can be held somewhere you cannot reach it.
A subscription for a one-off job
The single loudest complaint across the apps we looked at before building ours was being charged every week for something used twice. Ours are bought once, or not at all.
Analytics you were never told about
An SDK added in ten seconds quietly reports what you tap, where you are and what device you own. Every app here ships with none, and every privacy policy on this site says so in plain words.
Our apps
Eleven apps. One idea behind all of them.
Each one solves a single problem properly rather than eleven problems badly.
DayVault
Counts the days to and from the dates that matter — anniversaries, exams, a baby's age. Notes, photos and a diary for each day, all in the app's private storage on your phone.
Privacy policy →Metro Maps
Four European subway networks in one app — Vienna, Prague, Amsterdam and Rotterdam. Journey planning, fares and the whole map, offline, with the licence for every city's data on record.
Privacy policy →Dubai Metro Map & Routes
The Metro and the Tram on your phone: journey planning with the real platform direction, the first and last train from every station, zone-by-zone fares, and station names in English and Arabic.
Privacy policy →Singapore MRT Map & Routes
The whole rail network on your phone, working underground: journey planning with platform directions, fare estimates, an interchange guide, every station exit, and a street map for finding a place. English and 中文.
Privacy policy →New York Subway Map & Routes
The whole subway on your phone: journey planning with the real platform direction, live service status from the MTA, a transfer guide, fares and places worth going.
Privacy policy →SnapText AI
Pulls text out of videos and turns speech into text. Your videos, transcripts and notes stay in the app's private storage on your phone.
Privacy policy →Universe Alerts
Alerts you set yourself — reminders, plus weather, crypto and currency thresholds. Includes notification rules that can ring a real alarm, and a voice assistant you power with your own free API key.
Privacy policy →Utsav
Daily status cards and invitation cards in Hindi and English, each carrying your own name and photo. Good morning and devotional cards, plus festivals, weddings, birthdays and parties — and you can build one from your own picture.
Privacy policy →ArtistLane
Build a listening session from one artist's catalogue on YouTube, and play the MP3s already on your phone with playlists and favourites.
Privacy policy →NewsPulse
Headlines from news publishers you choose, grouped by story, with your cities alongside national and world news. Read the full article on the publisher's own page.
Privacy policy →How we build
Three rules we do not bend.
They decide what goes into an app, and more often what stays out of it.
Your data stays put
What you type, record or save lives in the app's private storage on your phone. We have no server holding it and no copy to hand over.
No account to open
Install it and it works. Where signing in unlocks something extra, it is optional and the rest of the app carries on without it.
The fewest permissions possible
Most of our apps ask for none at all. Every permission we do not request is one less thing you have to trust us with.
Checkable, not claimed
Anyone can verify this.
We are a one-person studio, so there is no enterprise certification to show you. What there is instead: facts you can confirm yourself, from the outside.
No analytics or ad SDKs
Unpack any APK and look at the dependency list. Google Play's own Data Safety entry for each app has to match what the app does, and ours says no data collected.
Permissions near zero
Android shows every permission an app requests before you install it. Most of ours ask for none at all; the rest ask for one and explain why.
Content you can trace
Where an app reproduces official material — transit timetables, civics questions — the source and its licence are named, and anything we could not licence was left out rather than copied.
A real registered business
Nivaro Studios is a sole proprietorship registered in Delhi under Udyam UDYAM-DL-02-0128447, with a working support address a person reads.
Something broken? Tell us.
Questions, bug reports or anything about your data — we read every message. If you are writing about a specific app, telling us which one and which phone you are on helps us fix things faster.
