Description

SimranLock blocks distracting apps until you complete a moment of simran. Read Gurbani, reflect on the daily Hukamnama, or meditate on Waheguru — then unlock and scroll.
The first screen-time discipline app built specifically for the Sikh community.
HOW IT WORKS
You pick the apps that distract you — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, games. When you try to open them, SimranLock intercepts with a passage from the Guru Granth Sahib. Read it, reflect, tap confirm, and the app unlocks. Every phone pickup becomes a moment of simran.

DAILY HUKAMNAMA
Start each day with the live Hukamnama from Sri Darbar Sahib, Amritsar. Gurmukhi, transliteration, and English translation — delivered to your lock screen every morning at Amrit Vela.

THREE UNLOCK PATHS
• Gurbani — A curated passage from the Guru Granth Sahib matched to your mood
• Mool Mantar — The foundational verse of Sikhi for a quick 15-second pause
• Simran — A guided Waheguru meditation timer

BUILT FOR THE SANGAT
• Gurmukhi + transliteration + English translation on every passage
• Mood-matched shabads powered by AI
• Streak tracking with calendar heatmap and milestone rewards
• Nitnem time gates for Amrit Vela, Rehras Sahib, and Kirtan Sohila
• Gurmukhi learning mode — tap any word to hear pronunciation and meaning
• iOS home screen widget showing today’s Hukamnama
• Share beautiful Hukamnama cards with your Sangat
