One new app. Every month.
I'm Tom Swope, and I founded New Wave Apps in 2026 with a simple challenge: design, build and ship a brand-new app every month of the year.
By day, I'm a high school computer science teacher, challenging students to solve real problems and bring their own ideas to life with code. I teach AP Computer Science Principles, AP Computer Science A, Honors Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, and Honors Computer Science Seminar where students design and build their own iOS apps.
Each app grows out of an area I genuinely care about: health and fitness, music, personal growth and family life. I build things I want to use myself, and I hope you'll find them useful too.
Small studio. Big care.
New Wave Apps is an independent studio making apps I want to use myself, and that respect the people who use them.
Made with care
Focused apps with clean, native design. Every feature earns its place.
Private by design
Where I can, data stays on your device and AI runs on-device. When it can't, I ask first.
Fair pricing
Generous free tiers, one-time purchases where it makes sense, and free trials so you can try before you buy.
Feedback and app ideas are always welcome.
Found a bug, have an idea to make one of the apps better, or want to suggest an app for a future month? Send me a note. I read every message.
