Massive Milestone: Cuppi submitted to the App Store
Cuppi has officially been submitted to the App Store. After 510+ hours and 49k lines of code, this privacy-first family app is ready for its UK release.

The big day has finally arrived: we have officially submitted Cuppi to the App Store for review. Fingers crossed, in just a few days we’ll have the green light for release, and Cuppi can finally be shared with everyone outside of our Beta programme.
I want to say a massive thank you to everyone who helped uncover bugs, cheered at every tiny milestone, and gave me the space and time needed to polish this first release version.
Before we open the doors, let’s have a look at the numbers behind the scenes:
510 hours 22 minutes and 18 seconds in 2026
So far this year, I’ve spent an average of 5.93 hours per day building the app and the entire infrastructure around it (and yes, that includes every single weekend). It’s been a long road, especially considering the initial idea first sparked way back in January 2025. That’s 5.93 hours a day on average!
49,803 lines of Cuppi code
A terrifyingly large number, isn't it? This covers everything from the backend logic to the app itself. Cuppi does a lot under the hood and it does it all very securely. While there is always room to optimise and refactor, I’ll spare you the technical deep dive for now!
9 followers on Facebook wooo
To be honest, social media was the last thing on my mind while I was stressing over the mountain of documentation and legal requirements over the last few weeks. But now that we’re moving into the next phase, let’s see if we can send this number into the stratosphere.
Give us a follow on Facebook, Bluesky, or X (or why not all three?) and help us spread the word about Cuppi.

Thank you
What a ride it has been. This is just the first step in showing the world that life can be managed much more simply without Big Tech’s eyes watching your every move. We can't wait for you to fall in love with it.
