Good apps deserve a long life.

App Lane gives apps that people love a long-term home — preserving what works, improving what could be better, and never squeezing them dry.

How App Lane Works

Preserve What Works.

Every app here was already good; that is why it was worth taking on. The first job is to not ruin it. Changes come carefully, and what users love stays.

Users Are Inherited, Not Harvested.

When Menu Bar Controller changed hands, every previous buyer kept their license: App Lane built a migration system so nobody paid twice. That is the standard, not the exception.

Long-Term, by Design.

App Lane does not flip apps and does not chase scale. It is a deliberately small portfolio, run by one person, built to still be here in ten years.

A small portfolio, kept deliberately small.

Menu Bar Controller

Joined 2025 · macOS

Sonos control from the Mac's menu bar — it does one thing perfectly. Since joining: a rebuilt purchase infrastructure with a free trial, a modernized UI, and a license migration that kept every previous buyer whole.

Lyd

Joined 2025 · iOS + watchOS

The gold-standard Apple Watch controller for Sonos, refined since 2019. Since joining: a full SwiftUI rewrite, Widgets, Live Activities, and Dynamic Island, plus an endorsement from 9to5Mac.

Mowbius

Joined 2023 · iOS + Android

The first app to join App Lane: a lawn-care CRM for solo professionals. Quietly maintained, and in 2026 its inherited backend was fully rebuilt so existing customers can rely on it for years to come.
