TapForge Studios is the independent studio of a solo Android developer based in Crown Point, Indiana, operating as 99 Cent Apps LLC.

The work comes out of two places at once: a background in the electrical, HVAC and life-safety trades, and a long habit of building things after hours. That combination is why the catalog looks the way it does.

On one side are the trade tools - field toolkits and certification prep for fire alarm techs, sprinkler fitters, electricians and HVAC pros. These are built by someone who has actually done the work, so the calculators answer the questions that come up on a jobsite, and they run offline where signal doesn't.

On the other side are apps for learning and play. The Mathlings are eight math apps for kids, from first clocks and coins to Algebra 1 (see tapforgeapps.com/mathlings), several of them Teacher Approved on Google Play, alongside language, typing and citizenship-test apps. The games are arcade, puzzle and card titles built for one more run.

There are everyday tools too: document and receipt scanners, a QR scanner, a planner, mileage and landlord bookkeeping, a weather app and more.

Everything shares the same approach: offline-first, no accounts to create, no data harvesting, and a real focus on being pleasant to use. Reach us any time at contact@tapforgeapps.com.
