Small team. No shortcuts. That's the whole model.
We stay small on purpose. Low overhead means we never need a dark pattern to make the numbers work. Every app we ship has to earn its place on your device without tricks.
We built apps we'd actually keep installed.
EVERGAN started because the apps we needed either didn't exist or came loaded with notifications designed to pull us back. We wanted tools that did the job and left us alone.
Staying small keeps the calculus honest. We don't answer to investors chasing daily-open metrics, so we can measure success by whether the app is still useful six months after install.
The trade-offs we make on purpose.
You know what it costs before you download.
Battery and data are yours, not ours to spend.
We've killed features that worked but felt wrong.
One price, stated plainly. No surprise paywalls after you've invested an hour. If a feature costs extra, we say so before you need it.
Our apps request only the permissions they actually need. Background processes that serve the app, not us, get cut before they ship.
If a mechanic keeps users coming back through pressure instead of value, it goes. That's a real cost we accept to keep the product clean.
