I kept running into the same wall: friends wanted guidance from the Gita but bounced off the language and length. So I built an iOS app that rewrites all 701 verses into Gen Z-friendly style and lets you find the right verse by mood or situation.
Why
The original is in Sanskrit, most translations are dense, and even Hindi versions can feel heavy. I wanted something you can actually use in the moment, not just study someday.
Key features
Gen Z versions of every verse
Mood tags to surface the right guidance when you need it
Home screen widget that rotates a fresh verse every few hours
One-tap sharing to friends and family
Free
How I built it
Native iOS with WidgetKit for the widget. Happy to share more about the stack and tooling if useful.
What I’d love feedback on
Onboarding flow and first-session clarity
Mood tagging logic and search
Widget cadence and verse variety
Any ideas to make this more inviting for younger readers
