One developer, and a short list of promises

Why this exists

Every app here starts as something that irritated me personally. Game streaming where the controls I used every day were buried in a page full of options. Subtitles in a language I could not read. A controller with a button in the wrong place and a game that refused to let me move it. Each time, I looked for a tool, found something bloated or abandoned or full of ads, and eventually started writing my own.

At some point it seemed unreasonable to keep them to myself. So here they are.

How I work

Slowly, and on purpose. I would rather release three tools that genuinely work than thirty that almost do. An app gets published when I have been using it myself for a while and it has stopped surprising me.

That also means I am honest about state. The apps that are still being built say so on their pages, and they do not list features until those features exist.

Arabic and English, both first-class

I build in both languages. Apolo cPanel switches between Arabic and English live, right-to-left layout included, and so does this site. Write to me in whichever you prefer.

What I promise you

• No junk in the installers. No toolbars, no ads, no "recommended partner software". Nothing is installed without asking you first.
• Downloads you can check. Every installer's SHA-256 is published on its page, so you can confirm you have exactly the file I released.
• No advertising inside the apps. Not banners, not popups, not a nag screen every fifth launch.
• No quiet data collection. Nothing is sent anywhere unless the app needs it to do the job you asked for, and where that happens the app's page says so in plain words.
• No subscriptions for small desktop tools. If something costs money, you pay once.
• A real reply. Write to me and a person reads it. Not a bot, not a ticket number, not a form that goes nowhere.

How this is paid for

Apolo cPanel is free, and it stays free. Some future apps — the ones that take months rather than weekends — will be paid, at a one-time price. That is the whole business model. There is no investor, no advertising deal, and nothing being done with your data behind the scenes, because there is nothing to do it with.

Why trust any of this?

Fair question — you should not simply take my word for it. So here is what you can actually check: every app page tells you before you download what the app needs, what it sends, and what it costs, and gives you the file's fingerprint. The privacy notice is short enough to read in full. The request conditions list what I refuse to build, not just what I will. And if something here turns out to be wrong, tell me and I will fix the page.

Trust is built one honest download at a time. That is the pace I am working at.

Where this goes next

More apps, mostly driven by what people ask for. The request form is not decoration — if you have a problem worth solving, send it.
