DimBar
Display Brightness Control. Free · private by default, with no accounts and nothing collected. Built like everything we ship: small, fast, and out of your way until you need it.
Software
The software library
Everything we ship in one place. Focused tools that do one job well, free on the App Store, private by default.
About
Independent, in-house, and private by default.
Side Channel Studios is an independent software studio. We design, build, test, and ship everything under one roof, from the first sketch to the App Store listing to the support inbox. No agencies, no handoffs, and no layer between the people who build the software and the people who answer for it.
The library is how we sharpen the craft. Every product starts as a real problem, ships small, and earns its place by being genuinely useful. The fastest way to know whether we are any good is to download something we made and see how it treats you.
We are opinionated about privacy because it earns trust. Our utilities collect nothing at all. No accounts, no analytics, no advertising, and nothing to sell even if we wanted to. That posture holds across the whole library.
Privacy first
We collect as little as a product needs, disclose it plainly, and never sell or rent your data.
One roof
Design, engineering, testing, and support by the same team that answers your email.
Built to ship
Small, focused releases that reach real users fast and get supported after launch.
More coming
Web tools and new products join the library as they earn their way out of the workshop.
