The Bhagavad Gita was always "there" growing up — on the shelf, at the mandir, quoted by relatives. But nobody really sat down and explained it.

Vedya is one verse a day, plain English explanation, no fluff. Takes 2 minutes.

10 languages if you want to share it with parents/grandparents who prefer Hindi, Gujarati, Tamil etc.

Free on iOS and Android. Would love feedback from this community.

I've been trying to build a daily Gita practice for a while but always struggled with consistency. Most apps felt too gamified or cluttered, so I ended up building one myself.

It shows one verse a day (cycles through all 108 key shlokas), with the Sanskrit, transliteration, and a plain-English explanation. Also has Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, and 6 other Indian languages if that's useful for you or family members.

Nothing fancy — no social feed, no streaks leaderboard. Just the teaching, audio recitation, and a way to save verses you want to revisit.

It's called Vedya. Free on iOS/Android. Happy to hear feedback if anyone tries it.

Been building Vedya for the past few months — a simple app that delivers one Gita verse each morning with Sanskrit, transliteration, and explanation in your language.

Why: I grew up hearing shlokas at home but never truly understood them. Most apps are too academic or too gamified. I wanted something quiet and ritualistic.

What it does:

• Rotates through 108 key shlokas
• 10 languages: English, Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Odia, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada
• Audio recitation
• Dhwani library — aartis, bhajans, chalisas, mantras
• Full Gita reader chapter by chapter

Free, no algorithm, no feed.

Would love feedback from builders here — especially on growth and retention for spiritual apps.
