Independent software studio
Small apps that respect you.
Outer Meadow builds iOS apps that do one thing well, cost nothing, and keep your data on your phone. No accounts. No ads. No tracking. No subscription waiting behind the third tap.
Apps
What we make
One on the App Store, one nearly there, more behind them. Each one free, each one offline-first.
Tayli Water
Tap a glass when you drink one. Reminders that stop once you have had enough, and nothing to sign up for.
Tayli Move
Run, walk and ride tracking with real maps, real stats and share cards worth posting. Everything stays on your phone.
Principles
Four rules we don't break
These aren't marketing lines. They're constraints the apps are built inside, and they're the reason some obvious features will never ship.
Your data stays yours
No servers, no cloud account, no analytics SDK. If a feature would need to phone home, it doesn't get built.
Free means free
Not free-with-a-paywall, not free-for-now. There is no premium tier holding your own history hostage.
You can always leave
Every app exports to open formats you can take elsewhere. Lock-in is a business model, not a feature.
Built to stay simple
Features earn their place or get cut. An app you can use without reading a manual is worth more than a longer feature list.
The studio
A very small studio, on purpose.
Outer Meadow is tiny, independent, and intends to stay that way. No investors, no growth targets, no roadmap written by a metric. Nobody here has a quarter to hit, which is the entire reason the apps can stay free, quiet and free of the usual machinery.
We build the things we wanted to exist and couldn't find without a subscription attached. Every app ships when it's genuinely ready rather than when a calendar says so, and keeps working offline because that's how software should behave.
The family
One family, one sky
Every Outer Meadow app carries the Tayli name and takes its own colour from the studio's palette. Same principles, same promises, different corner of your life.
Tayli™ Water
A glass of water, a tap, a gentle nudge when the day has got away from you. Built, in all honesty, because one of us kept forgetting.
Tayli™ Move
Running, walking and cycling. Real maps, splits, a 3D flyover of the route you took, and records found automatically across your history.
Tayli™ Gym
Strength training that remembers what you lifted last time and gets out of the way between sets.
Tayli™ Calm
Breathing you can follow with your eyes shut. No streaks to protect, no course to complete, nothing to finish.
Tayli™ Sleep
What your phone already knows about your nights, shown plainly, without a score out of a hundred.
More to come
Small tools for ordinary things, built the same way: free, offline, and yours to leave whenever you like.
