App developer at Qup DA, Norway
Apps for iPhone, Android and the web, built from start to finish.
I build complete apps on my own: the iPhone and Android app, the web app and the server behind them. Two of them are live today.
Qup Recover
A daily companion for recovery from substance use.
Recovery looks different for everyone. Qup Recover gives people a calm place to check in every day: what they used, how strong the cravings were, their mood and wellbeing, side effects and medication.
Over time the check-ins become a calendar and a diary that show patterns at a glance. When the person is ready, they can share their data with a doctor or counsellor using a one-time code. The clinician opens it in the web dashboard, with graphs, summaries and a PDF export.
Daily check-ins
Substances, cravings, mood, wellbeing, side effects and notes in under a minute.
Calendar and diary
Each day is coloured by craving level, with a monthly summary and breakdown.
Validated questionnaires
GAD-7, PHQ-9, AUDIT, DAST-10, CAGE and readiness to change.
Medications and reminders
Track medicines taken each day and get notified when it's time.
Share with a clinician
A one-time code opens the data in a web dashboard with graphs and PDF export.
Private by design
PIN lock, light and dark themes, and 12 languages.

Qup Pulse
What's happening right around you.

Qup Pulse is the pulse of whatever neighbourhood you're in. Post to the people who are actually near you, and see what's happening right now, whether you're in Bergen, Berlin or Bangkok.
The feed ranks posts by how close to you they were made, and you decide the range: just the blocks around you or the whole world. When you meet someone interesting, you can follow them, chat, or start a voice or video call, on your phone or at quppulse.com.
Local or global
Set your feed to the streets around you or the whole world, whenever you like.
Right now
Posts are about the present moment, from the people sharing your space.
People nearby
Check in to be found by people close by. You can also pick a place by hand.
Chat and calls
Messages plus voice and video calls with the people you've matched with.
Built for safety
Report and block in one tap. Your profile shows your area, never your exact position.
Phone and web
The same account on iPhone, Android and quppulse.com, in 12 languages.
