Current lineup
Different apps.
Same fingerprints.
Careful systems, tactile details, useful ideas, and just enough personality that software doesn't feel like filing taxes.

Studio rule
Build the thing people can understand. Protect what matters. Make the fiddly parts feel easier. Then give it enough character that opening the app feels a little bit good.
