About Strawberry Creek Studio

Strawberry Creek Studio is an independent iOS app development studio

based in Alberta, Canada. We build straightforward, useful apps for

iPhone across a range of categories — games, creative tools, and local

community directories.

We started with a simple idea: that useful software doesn't have to be

complicated, and that local communities deserve better online tools than

what the big platforms provide. That idea drives everything we make.

What We Build

Alberta Business Directories

Our flagship project is a growing network of free online business

directories for Alberta communities. Each directory lists the local

businesses serving a given town or city, organized by category,

neighbourhood, and name. They're free to use, require no account, and

are updated regularly.

Current directories include Calgary, Calmar, and Thorsby, with more

Alberta communities being added throughout 2026.

Our Calgary directory also has a companion iOS app available on the

App Store, making it easy to browse local businesses on the go.

iOS Apps

We publish iOS apps for iPhone across several categories. Our current

lineup includes:

Fjord Raiders — a Viking naval battle strategy game where you command

a longship fleet across challenging fjord territory.

Hemi's Saint Bernard Game — an arcade game starring Hemi, a Saint

Bernard on a mission to save skiers on the mountain.

Photo to Colouring Book — a creative tool that turns any photo into a

printable colouring page in seconds.

Calgary Business Directory — the iOS companion to our Calgary online

directory, putting 20,000+ local business listings in your pocket.

Our Approach

We keep things simple. Our apps and directories are designed to do one

thing well, without unnecessary complexity or bloat. We don't chase

trends or build things for the sake of building them. If something

genuinely makes life a little easier or more enjoyable for the people

using it, it's worth making.

For our directory work especially, we believe Alberta's local businesses

deserve more visibility than the big platforms give them. A locally owned

restaurant, a long-established trades business, or a small-town retailer

contributes something real to their community — and finding them

shouldn't require knowing exactly where to look.

Get In Touch

Whether you have a question about one of our apps, want to update or add

a business listing, or just want to say hello — we'd love to hear from

you.
