Built by a developer, for developers.
Hey, I'm Christian. I'm an iOS developer by day and an indie app maker by night. Dispatched exists because I needed it myself.
The problem
I have five apps, a full-time job, and a growing list of things that need my attention. When Claude Code became part of my workflow, I started running sessions across multiple projects at once. It didn't take long before I completely lost track of what was happening where.
I looked at existing tools. Some were close, but nothing felt truly native. As someone who cares deeply about the Apple platform, I wanted something that felt right at home on my Mac. Not an Electron wrapper. Not a web dashboard. A real macOS app.
How it started
It started as a simple menu bar app. I just wanted a small thing sitting in my menu bar to keep an eye on my Claude Code sessions. That was it.
But then I kept using it, and I kept adding to it, and before I knew it I had a full-blown app on my hands. I got completely carried away. And honestly? I'm enjoying every bit of it. It's the first time I've built something that I actually sit in front of all day. My other apps, like Unplugged, are designed to quietly do their thing in the background. This is different. This is front and center in my workflow, every single day.
I actually used Dispatched to build Dispatched. From the very first prototype, it's been part of my daily workflow. Every feature exists because I genuinely needed it.
Some context
I've been in tech for over a decade. I started in QA, moved into development, and never looked back. For the past five years, I've been writing Swift full-time, building apps that people actually use every day.
Indie development is the long-term dream. I care about the craft. The details, the polish, the feeling of software that respects your time. Every app I've built reflects that.
Other things I've built
Dispatched isn't my first app, and it won't be my last. Here's what else I've shipped:
This is just the beginning
Dispatched is in its early days. There's a lot I want to improve, and I'll be sharing updates along the way. If you support this project, you're supporting an indie developer working toward doing this full-time. That means a lot to me.
I genuinely want to hear from you. Feedback, ideas, even complaints. All of it helps me make this better.
