About BIKINTULIS

BIKINTULIS is an independent studio building apps and watch faces for the Garmin Connect IQ platform. Small catalogue, growing — focused on tools that earn their place on your wrist.

The vision

Garmin watches go everywhere — runs, hikes, sleep, work, family moments. Most apps in the Connect IQ store stop at "show a metric and move on". The interesting question is what kinds of small, focused tools could replace the dozen times a day you reach for your phone.

That's the brief here: useful tools for real-life moments on the wrist. Not clones. Not analytics-bait. Apps that solve one specific thing clearly, then stay out of your way.

The catalogue today covers two pillars — family life and fitness & training — with everyday lifestyle and entertainment apps coming next. New categories show up here when there's an app worth shipping in them.

Who's behind it

A full-time programmer based in Germany. The apps here are built on the side — for me, and for anyone living the same wrist-on-the-go life.

I'm a sport fan, a long-time Garmin user, and someone who's quietly trying to leave the phone in a drawer more often. The honest ambition: get to a point where the watch replaces the phone for most of what I do day-to-day. That's a long way off, but every app shipped here is one step in that direction.

How the apps treat your data

No accounts. No ads. No analytics SDKs, ever. The apps never ask for your name or email. The BabyTrack Face can display on-device metrics — Body Battery, heart rate, stress, steps — on your wrist, but those stay on the watch and are never sent off it.

When an app does need to send something to a server — for example, syncing a baby's sleep log between two parents' watches — the per-app privacy policy lists exactly what is sent and why, in plain words. Hosting and email are EU-based (Germany); GDPR rules apply.
