Bryl Lim in the Philippines launched Tarsi as a pay-once app with no subscription and took it to #1 on the paid app charts without ads; since September 2026 it is free with an optional Pro upgrade.

Tap & Swipe reports the app was vibe coded in a weekend using Codex on top of a React Native template, and that Bryl still uses Codex for feature requests.
