Software for people like you.

The challenge of making your life better.

We’ve built software for family, friends, and longtime clients. Now we’re turning those solutions into products that can help you.

Our Software

Software you can use today.

Some of our products began with something we needed ourselves. Others grew from work we were already doing. These are the ones we’ve opened to a wider audience.

ContactCore

ContactCore started with a website form and a simple wish: a better place for the messages it receives. Now it’s a service you can use too.

  • Receive and review website submissions
  • Filter spam with layered checks and Google reCAPTCHA
  • Choose email forwarding and web or iOS notifications

My Traveler Map

Make maps with a purpose. My Traveler Map helps you collect places you want to visit or keep for later, whether you’re planning a trip, building a bucket list, or saving a great recommendation.

Still growing, with interface refinements and new ideas in the works.

Our software behind our software.

Some of what we build is not meant to stand on its own. These shared services handle identity, organizations, communication, notifications, and other functions used across Life View products.

Accounts

One Life View identity for signing in, managing your account, and accessing our services.

My Life View

Your organizations, people, and services in one place.

PushCore

The shared notification service used to deliver push notifications across our apps.

MailCore

The shared email service used for account messages, notifications, and other application email.

PhoneCore

Our shared service for calls, SMS, and RCS, used by Life View apps. It isn’t available directly to third parties.

Selected work

Built for a particular need.

Some projects begin with a client, a business, or an idea that needs something specific. Here are a few examples of custom work we’ve built along the way.

Private app

VistaContractor

Built for Vista Renovations LLC, this long-running iOS application brings field work and office operations together. It has evolved alongside the business, from its early UIKit and CloudKit foundations to integrated calling, SMS, voicemail, payments, and more.

  • Work orders & appointments
  • Worker assignments & printing
  • Calls, SMS & voicemail
  • Proposals, invoices & payments

About Us

Decades of experience. Still learning.

Life View Innovations grew from years of building software for real people and real businesses. Many of our projects started close to home — with family, friends, longtime clients, or with something we needed ourselves.

Today, we are taking that experience in a new direction: turning ideas and solutions born from individual needs into products that can help many more people.

Experience that keeps evolving

Our experience spans decades of software development and systems administration. We have worked with the web since its earlier days, from HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL to more recent technologies and architectures. Our Linux experience dates back to 1997, followed by years of systems administration and server work.

Over the last decade and more, much of our development has focused on Apple platforms — from UIKit to Swift and SwiftUI — including MapKit, CloudKit, Core Data, push notifications and many other frameworks. Behind the applications, PostgreSQL and database design have also become an important part of what we do.

We continue exploring new technologies, including AI, when they can genuinely make something more useful. Technology is a tool for us, not the reason to build something.

Thinking beyond one place

We want our software to be useful wherever people need it. As Life View grows, we also hope the people building it with us will come from different places, backgrounds and experiences.

Different perspectives make better software.

More than our logo

The hummingbird in our logo is the Picaflor de Arica (Eulidia yarrellii), a tiny hummingbird native to northern Chile and currently Critically Endangered.

Its historic range once extended into southern Peru, while today only small populations remain in northern Chile.

Life View Innovations is not affiliated with a conservation organization, but we encourage those who can help to learn about the species, raise awareness, and support reputable organizations and authorities working to protect the Picaflor de Arica and its habitat.
