## What is Randhawa?

Randhawa draws the map of your life, one dot at a time.

Carry your phone and the map draws itself. Each time your phone notices you have gone somewhere, Randhawa marks a dot there and draws the line from the last one. Slowly, the ink becomes something no one else could make: your places. Home darkens into a blot. The roads you take every day darken too. Trips trail off the edge like sparks. Open the app and it marks a dot where you are, the way it always has.

New in 3.2: the ink. The map is redrawn as blots where you stayed and threads where you moved, all translucent, so repetition is what darkens. Today is drawn on top in orange, the live line over everything before it. Tap a blot and Randhawa tells you what the place is called, how often you were there and what you kept there. Slide the sparkles button and the map fades under the ink until only the constellation is left, on a real projection you can still zoom.

Memories: tap the plus button, or open a place, and write down what it deserves to remember, with a photo from your library or straight from the camera. Memories live as gold dots on your map, and one made on this date in an earlier year wears a light around it, right where it happened. And if you also use Bhullar, our time app, the same memories resurface there on the day they become anniversaries. Randhawa gives them a place; Bhullar gives them a time.

Add the widget and your map lives on your Home Screen, drawn with the same ink, growing every time a dot lands.

Yours, even on your next phone:
• Turn on iCloud sync and your moments and memories are kept in your private iCloud, which we cannot read
• Get a new phone, sign in, and your map comes back
• Export your map as one file whenever you like; it is yours
• No account to create. No password. Your Apple Account is the account.

Private by architecture, not by promise:
• The map draws itself only after you say yes to iOS's own location prompt, and iOS asks again before background access becomes permanent
• It listens only for the low-power signals iOS gives a sleeping app when you have actually moved, so it never runs continuously and never keeps your phone awake
• Answer While Using only, and Randhawa falls back to a dot each time you open it
• Your data lives on your device and, only if you choose, in your own iCloud. We run no servers and can see none of it.
• No tracking. No analytics. No ads.
• Forget the trail, or erase everything everywhere, any time, with one tap

Randhawa cannot be rushed and cannot be faked. It simply gets better the longer you live with it. Carry it wherever you go, and watch your map appear.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.6 — 2026-09-02

Locating fixes itself.

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

### 3.5 — 2026-08-30

On this day, on the map.

A memory you made on this date in an earlier year now wears a light around it where it happened, not only a heading in the list. The map remembers the date the way the day does.

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

### 3.4 — 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: the photo, a plain caption, and one link back to the app, handed to whatever you already use to send it. Peer to peer, nothing of ours in between.

### 3.3 — 2026-08-20

Write to the makers.

A new line in the "..." menu, 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.

### 3.2 — 2026-08-17

The ink.

Randhawa now draws the map of your life by default. Carry your phone and each time it notices you have gone somewhere, a dot lands and a line joins it to the last one. Home darkens into a blot. The road you take every morning darkens too. Today is drawn on top in orange, the live line over everything before it.

It asks first. The intro says what the map will do, iOS asks in its own words, and iOS asks again before background access becomes permanent. It listens only for the low-power signals a sleeping app is allowed, never runs continuously, and never keeps your phone awake. Answer While Using only and Randhawa marks a dot each time you open it, as it always has. One screen turns it off, one tap forgets everything it gathered.

Tap a blot to open the place: what it is called, how often you were there, what you kept there, and a way to keep something more. Tap a gold dot to open that memory. The camera is in the composer now, next to the library.

The sparkles button still flips between the map and the constellation. Press and slide it, and the map fades under the ink to anywhere in between.

"Export your map" in the menu writes everything to one file you can keep. It is yours.

Where your places live has not changed at all. The same file on your phone, the same optional private iCloud that we cannot read, the same absence of servers of ours.
