Software for one hand.

01

The thumb is the user

Reachability, touch targets, forgiveness radius. I design for the commuter holding a coffee, not the mockup with a floating hand.

Battery is trust

An app that drains the battery is borrowing against the user's day. Efficiency isn't an optimization pass; it's the deal.

03

Offline is the baseline

Elevators exist. Tunnels exist. Software that panics without a signal was never finished.
