Retroflare Studios is a one-person shop run by Nick, a Chicago-area maker who grew up on dial-up tones, arcade cabinets, and the good kind of pixels. He builds the apps he wants to use, then ships them. Retro is the look. Shipping is the point.

SUBFLARE

An iOS app that puts what's heating up in your feeds front and center - without swallowing your whole day.

NUBNOTE

Capture a thought in a second. Nubnote sorts it, groups it, and brings it back when it matters. Private and on-device.

CREASE METER

An odometer for your iPhone Duo's hinge. Crease Meter counts every fold and unfold, then turns them into graphs, streaks, and a service record for your phone.

FRESCARI

A coloring book for iPhone with over 300 fine-line pages, real pencils, paints and markers - and pages you can make yourself.
