“We only build apps we use ourselves. If we wouldn’t pay for it, we won’t ask you to.”
How every app starts
What we believe
An app should earn its price,
An app should earn its price,
not trap you in one
Fair apps,
made in Sweden
Made for ourselves first
We use them every day
Each app started as something we needed. Using them ourselves is how we notice what to fix next.
Cheaper, on purpose
Too many apps charge every week for things your phone already does well. We would rather charge once, or let you start for free, at a price that feels fair.
No tricks
No three-day trials that quietly turn into a yearly bill. No hidden cancel button. You pay for what you use, and you know exactly what that is.

Studio
We build the apps
We build the apps
we wanted ourselves
Made by people
who use them
Joel Roos Studio is an independent app studio in Sweden. Every app we make started with a problem of our own, and a market full of tools that cost more per year than they should. So we build our own, use them every day, and sell them at a price that feels fair. No investors to please.
