What is The InfoDump?

The InfoDump is an independent studio that makes useful, privacy-respecting software โ€” apps and tools we wanted to exist and built ourselves.

We don't track you. We don't sell your data. We don't run ads. We just love making useful things, getting the details right, and sharing what we're working on.

If that sounds like your speed, say hi.

Jamal Chishti

Builder, designer, and always happy to chat about what he's making.

The InfoDump is a one-person studio out of Oregon. Jamal built Linear Timer+ because he needed it, then kept building it because other people said they did too. He brings a sharp eye for detail and plenty of ideas for what to build next. The good ideas will end up on this page as real things you can use.

He believes software should be useful, honest, and quiet: no tracking, no ads, no dark patterns. If a tool can't earn its keep without those, it shouldn't exist.

Want "Android Beta Tester" on your resume?

Linear Timer+ is coming to Android. Before it ships, it needs real people using it on real devices โ€” not just a simulator running in a dark room at 2 AM.

Sign up and you'll get early access, a direct line to report bugs, and yes โ€” you can absolutely put Android Beta Tester on your resume. We won't tell anyone how easy it was to get in.

No spam. No newsletter. Just an email when it's time to test.

Send word.

We don't have a mailbox. We have a pigeon. He's reliable, mostly. Tell him what you need and he'll come find us.
