## What is Bhullar?

Bhullar is a telescope for time. One grid of dots, five zoom levels. Swipe the grid and the year becomes months, then weeks, then days; swipe again and you are looking at today, hour by hour, then minute by minute.

The unit you are in glows. The units that have passed fill in. The rest wait quietly. That is the whole app, and that is the point.

Dots you can open. Swiping is the zoom, which frees the tap to mean "this one". Tap any dot that has already happened and Bhullar tells you what that stretch of time held: where you were during it, and what you kept from it. The places come from Randhawa, our map app, whose map now draws itself; carry your phone and they fill in on their own. A dot still ahead of now says only "Not yet."

New in 2.2: the widgets glow gold on the days and hours that hold a memory, the same way the grid in the app does. The composer can take a photo with the camera, not only pick one. And places are named through one shared cache, so a place is the same word in Bhullar and in Randhawa.

Memories. Tap the plus button and write down what right now deserves to keep, with a photo if you like, from your library or the camera. Days that hold a memory glow gold in the grid, and when a memory's date comes around again it resurfaces under the grid: on this day. If you also use Randhawa, our map app, memories flow between the two: made in either, shown in both. Randhawa gives them a place; Bhullar gives them a time.

• 12 months, 52-odd weeks, 365-odd days, 24-odd hours, 1,440-odd minutes
• Swipe sideways to change scale; the app remembers where you left it
• Tap any elapsed dot to open it: the places and the memories from that span
• Three Home Screen widgets: Year in Dots, Day in Dots, and Dots at Any Scale, which you can set to months, weeks, days, or hours; gold where you kept a memory
• Lock Screen widgets in every size
• Updates itself: live while open, hourly for the day, at midnight for the year

Honest timekeeping:
• Leap years get 366 dots automatically
• On clock-change days, the day truthfully shows 23 or 25 hours, and 1,380 or 1,500 minutes
• Weeks follow your calendar settings

Deliberately minimal:
• No account to create. No sign-up. iCloud sync is optional and uses your own private iCloud, which we cannot read.
• No tracking. No analytics. No ads.
• The grid needs nothing: every dot is computed on your device from the date

Glance, take it in, get on with your day.

## Key features

- Zoomable time grid (years to hours)
- Visual progress tracking
- Home Screen widgets
- Lock Screen widgets
- Automatic leap year handling
- Ad-free and no tracking

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.6 — 2026-09-03

Locating fixes itself.

Open a span with more than one memory and every place name but the last used to stick on "Locating..." forever. Now each one finds its name.

### 2.5 — 2026-08-30

Save a memory and it now opens itself, so you can see what you just kept.

### 2.4 — 2026-08-24

A memory with a photo now gets a quiet tag or two, guessed on the phone from the picture itself. Nothing leaves the device to make the guess.

A memory can also be shared straight from its own screen, and the envelope button in the corner no longer sits over today's dot at the finer scales.

### 2.3 — 2026-08-20

Write to the makers.

A small envelope in the corner, Write to the makers, opens the system mail sheet addressed to us. Nothing is sent until you send it, and the app still runs no servers of its own.

### 2.2 — 2026-08-17

Gold in the widgets.

The days and hours that hold a memory now glow gold in the widgets too, the way they always have in the grid. Glance at the Home Screen and the year shows not only how far along it is but where you kept something.

The composer can take a photo with the camera now, next to choosing one from your library. And Bhullar and Randhawa name places through one shared lookup, so a place is the same word in both.

Randhawa, the sibling map app, draws its map by default from this release. Carry your phone and the dots you open here fill in with the places you went, on their own.
