I package bits of fun
into simple apps

I occasionally share my thoughts at @tobiasahlin, and at my blog.

Life is more fun with a soundtrack

For two and a half years, I worked at Spotify to make all the world’s music available through easy-to-use products.

Everyone loves music, and working with spreading that love was an amazing experience. I joined Spotify when it was still a young service. We hade yet to cross the one million subscribers mark, and there were around 150 employees at the company. When I left the company in late 2012, it had grown to having over 5 million paying subscribers and over 800 employees. That’s a lot of love.

During my two and a half years at the company I worked with essentially the entire array of Spotify's products, including apps for iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows Mobile, Mac, PC, and the web player.

Spotify iOS clients
SpellRush

Find words in an
endless stream of letters

Yup, SpellRush is THE new word game that will keep your fingers swiping for hours. Or, you know, at least for two minutes. As you swipe over letters to create words, used tiles disappear in a cloud of smoke, and new tiles fall down from the top of the board. How many words can you find before the time runs out?

I’ve built SpellRush from a love for word games. It’s full of fun and quirkiness, with custom animations in every single view. Best of all—it’s completely free.

Web & branding for Agigen

The Swedish web agency Agigen works with an impressive array of companies, including Google, North Kingdom and McDonalds. I had the pleasure to work with the talented team to create their logo and web site.

And much more…
