Stamp Days
Counts the days you spend in every country, automatically. Open it after a trip and the days are already there.
Hey, I'm Mousa.
iOS Developer.
I'm an iOS engineer in Cologne. By day I build features for Parship, eharmony and ElitePartner. As a hobby, I make my own apps: small, careful tools I wanted to exist.
A bit about me.
I've been building apps for Apple platforms for years. Some of the apps I've worked on include online shopping apps, travel social network, and camera and text-recognition features. Currently, I'm building features for Parship, eharmony and ElitePartner at PE Digital. I focus on the details that make an app feel right: fluid interactions, reliable data, and clear, focused design.

The foldable iPhone arrives on October 23. Here's how Stamp Days got ready for it in a day, what needed changing and what didn't, and the screenshots that go with it.

The app got a new look, so its website needed one too. A bold idea that turned out to be misleading, a return to the app's own stamps, and the small fixes that made it feel finished.
