Indie dev intro: building simple, private-first iOS apps

Hey everyone I m an indie developer from Sweden working on small, focused iOS apps. So far I ve released two: CoordTool a clean coordinate converter with support for multiple formats (DD, DMS, UTM, MGRS, RT90, SWEREF99) and some aviation tools like VOR/NDB radial + distance. Simple PDF Scanner a lightweight document scanner that works fully offline. My general philosophy when building is: Privacy first no tracking, no servers, everything stays on your device. No unnecessary accounts you shouldn t need to sign up just to use a utility. No subscriptions if a product has no ongoing costs, I believe it should be a one-time purchase. I m curious to connect with others who share this mindset and also happy to hear how you think about pricing and privacy in indie apps. If you d like to see more of what I m building, I ve started collecting my projects here mpktec.se

Building Simple PDF Scanner – what would you want in v1.1?

Hi Product Hunt I ve just released Simple PDF Scanner, a lightweight iOS app for fast and privacy-friendly scanning. No subscriptions just a simple one-time model. In v1.0 you can already: Scan with camera or import from library Export with custom filename A4 paper size support OCR text recognition Password-protect your PDFs Share or mail instantly Planned for v1.1: Quality controls when scanning Estimated file size preview More paper sizes (beyond A4) Scan history for quick access I d love your feedback: What would be your must-have features for a simple, one-time purchase PDF scanner? Anything you always miss in other apps? Thanks a lot
