Small iPhone apps that mind their own business.

Rude Finch is an independent studio. Each app does one job well, works without an account, and keeps your documents and places on your iPhone.

Apps

Glide Scan app icon

Glide Scan

PDF scanner & OCR

Scan paper to clean PDFs, turn it into Word or Excel and copy the text — offline, with no watermark.

  • Text recognition and file conversion run on your iPhone
  • Sign, fill in forms and hide ID numbers before you share
  • Free to scan; Glide Scan Pro unlocks every tool
Pinnap app icon

Pinnap

Arrival alarm for trains and buses

Drop a pin on your stop and doze off. A real alarm wakes you as you get close, even in silent mode.

  • Heads-up before you arrive and an alert if you pass your stop
  • Leave an arrival memo, like “Grab your umbrella · Exit 3”
  • Location is used only while an alarm is on

How we make apps

Your things stay on your iPhone

Scanning, text recognition and arrival checks run on the device. We don't run servers that receive your files or your location.

No account to make

Open the app and use it. There is nothing to sign up for and no password to forget.

Straight about money

Glide Scan is free to scan, with an optional Pro. Pinnap is free with ads, and never shows one while your alarm rings.
