Pontueel — Amsterdam is a city split by water. The IJ separates the centre from Noord, and if you are on foot or on a bike, the free GVB ferry, the *pont*, is the only way across. Tens of thousands of people take one every day, and the timing of that crossing quietly runs your morning. Catch the pont that is about to leave and you are early. Miss it by ten seconds and you stand on a cold pier watching it pull away.
Pontueel takes the guesswork out of it. It puts a live countdown to your ferry on your Home and Lock Screen, so a single glance tells you whether to keep walking or run. Open the app and you get a full-screen map of the IJ with the ferries making their way across it, a clean departure board, and the time to the next crossing in big, clear numerals.

Opslan — Hi all 👋, I wanted to share Opslan, a bookmarking app I designed a while ago to help you easily save and rediscover websites that inspire you. It never saw the light, but I still feel it could be relevant.
As a designer, I aimed to create a tool that combines a visually appealing interface with powerful search capabilities. With Opslan, you can archive your favorite sites and keep them well-organized for future reference, all without the clutter of traditional bookmarks. #web #website
