The Apps I built for moms 

Little Longer

Content screening for parents

​

Here's the problem it solves: a movie is rated PG, and PG tells you almost nothing. It doesn't tell you there's a gun fired in the last ten minutes. It doesn't tell you the first ten minutes feature a death. And a G-rated show can spend half its runtime unboxing toys in a way that has your kids asking for things by name for a week.

​

So Little Longer asks you what matters in your house — scary imagery, startling sounds, loss and grief, old-school gender roles, consumerism, and more — and then tells you exactly what's in a title and where it happens. You decide what to do with that. Skip it, prep for it, or press play with no worries at all.

​

It covers movies, shows, books, songs, and podcasts. If something isn't in the library yet, you can ask for it and have a report in about twenty seconds. See more here on the blog!

​

There's also a two-minute quiz that sorts your family into a house — Slow & Cozy, Big Feelings Welcome, Curious Cubs, Silly Geese, Daring Dragons, 90s Childhood — and then your shelf fills itself with things that fit your people instead of an algorithm's guess.

Little Later

Sensitivity screening for grown-ups

​

This one I didn't plan to build.

​

When I was pregnant, I couldn't watch anything happen to a pregnant woman on a show. In postpartum, the smallest thing happening to a child would undo me. Even now I'm careful about what I let into my brain, because I've watched exactly how it ripples out into my anxiety and my whole week.

​

Little Later is the grown-up version: your sensitivities, checked before you press play. Pregnancy and infant loss, medical trauma, harm to children, self-harm, and more — you set what you want flagged, and you find out before, not during.

​

Everyone has a version of this. The thing you can't watch right now, for reasons that belong to you and don't need explaining to anybody.
