Independent Product Studio
Useful software for real life.
Barefoot Apps is a small independent product studio building thoughtful apps that are built around real moments: listening, remembering, ordering, exploring, using what you already own, and choosing the next good step.
Apps
Analog DJ
In ProgressA record-collection app that helps vinyl feel like listening, not database work.
Analog DJ helps you add records, recognize covers, fill in the details, keep a wishlist, and choose what to play. The technology stays in the background so the ritual stays in front.

Ricorda
LiveA private music companion for the songs, Shazams, credits, and moments that matter.
Ricorda helps you reconnect with the music you already love. It brings memory, context, Quick Play, widgets, and small listening shortcuts together without turning discovery into another feed.

Lettore
LiveA compact music player for Apple Vision Pro that stays out of the way.
Lettore brings Apple Music into visionOS with a small, focused player made for the space around you. It keeps controls close, music present, and the interface light enough to leave the room alone.

Cocktail Menus
LiveA menu companion that makes unfamiliar drink lists easier to understand.
Cocktail Menus helps you scan a menu, understand what is in front of you, and choose with a little more confidence. It is meant to support the moment, not take over the table.

Neighborhood Crawl
In ProgressA self-guided local discovery app for noticing more of where you already are.
A neighborhood crawl app is being designed around a simple question: I am here, what should I do and what should I notice? The first test market is The Hill in St. Louis, with focused routes that make a place easier to enter and more rewarding to explore.

Have an app worth making real?
Most of Barefoot Apps is spent on its own products. Occasionally, a focused app idea is worth a conversation, especially when it is grounded in a real moment and could make the next step clearer.

The best technology often disappears into the task: a little context, a clearer choice, a safer default, and then the app gets out of the way.
