Independent Android developer

No ads. No accounts. No nonsense.

  • No advertising
  • No trackers or analytics SDKs
  • No account required

The apps

Four apps, one idea: get the job done and stop bothering you.

All four are in active development. None have a Google Play listing yet — this page is where the links will appear the moment they do.

BoltRecorder

A plain, reliable voice recorder that keeps running in the background and flushes audio to disk every three seconds — so a crash, a dead battery, or a stray tap never costs you the take.

  • WAV · OGG · AAC
  • Background recording
  • Works offline
Coming soon

BoltFlashcards

Flashcards that pay attention. Every card carries its own statistics, so the ones you know fade into the background while the ones you keep missing come back around — and new cards arrive in batches, not all at once.

  • Per-card statistics
  • Adaptive scheduling
  • Batched new cards
Coming soon

BoltQuestionBank

Point it at a textbook and get back a bank of study questions covering the material — the tedious part of making a study guide, done in one pass so you can spend your time actually studying.

  • Textbook → questions
  • Study guides
  • Uses cloud AI
Coming soon

BoltSummarizer

Hand it a recording — a lecture, a meeting, an interview — and get back a readable summary plus a starter set of flashcards drawn from what was actually said.

  • Recording → summary
  • Generated flashcards
  • Uses cloud AI
Coming soon

How these apps are built

The rules don't change from app to app.

No advertising

Not a banner, not an interstitial, not a "watch a video to unlock." There is no ad SDK in any sirslopalot app, so there is nothing in the app whose job is to distract you.

No accounts, no onboarding

Open the app and use it. No email, no password, no five-screen tour, no "rate us" prompt appearing halfway through what you were doing.

No trackers or analytics

No analytics SDKs, no advertising identifiers, no crash-reporting services quietly collecting a profile. Your usage is not a data set.

Honest about the network

BoltRecorder and BoltFlashcards work entirely on your device. BoltQuestionBank and BoltSummarizer send the material you choose to process to a cloud AI provider — that is the only way they can work, and each app's page says so plainly.

About

A one-person Android shop.

sirslopalot is an independent developer publishing Android apps on Google Play. The catalogue is deliberately small: a recorder, a flashcard app, and two study tools that take the busywork out of preparing material.

The apps share a lot of DNA. They're quick to open, they don't nag, they don't ask who you are, and they don't need a connection unless the feature genuinely requires one. If a feature can't be built without collecting something from you, it either doesn't ship or it's stated up front.

Contact

Questions, bugs, or feature requests?

Support for every sirslopalot app runs through one inbox. Bug reports and feature requests are read personally — mention which app and which Android version you're on and it'll get looked at.
