About SimplyKyra

Hi, I’m Kyra!

I’m an indie Apple developer creating calm, simple apps that help you forget less and remember what matters.

I build tools for real life. Made for people who feel overwhelmed, stretched thin, or just trying their best. My work is rooted in the belief that technology should reduce mental load, not add to it, and that gentle structure can feel supportive rather than demanding.

SimplyKyra helps you cut through the noise with thoughtful tools and cozy updates designed to fit naturally into everyday life

How I Got Here

I started this site back in 2017 as a creative outlet while raising my kids. At the time, I shared everything from toddler crafts and sewing projects to personal experiments and reflections. Over the years, my focus slowly shifted from sewing and digital art, to tech tinkering, and now to building indie apps for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

That journey still shapes how I work today. I care deeply about kindness over pressure, simplicity over complexity, and creating tools that meet people where they are.

What You’ll Find Here

Today, SimplyKyra is home to:

• Calm, purpose-built Apple apps
• Behind-the-scenes stories and reflections
• Gentle productivity ideas
• Ongoing blog posts alongside archives from my earlier creative days, which I’ve kept live (and occasionally update), because they’re still part of the story
