Sirr
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sirr is a quiet daily practice drawn from the Sufi path of the heart. Each morning you receive one couplet or image — a line from Rumi's Masnavi, the reed, the mirror, the guest house. You don't dissect it. You carry it through your day, and return to it at night. It is the opposite of a feed. One line per screen. Generous whitespace. Dark and calm by design. An app built to be closed — because success is presence regained, not minutes captured. THE THREE BEATS • Take — Each morning, receive one line from the path. Don't analyze it; carry it. • Carry — Today's line rests on your Lock Screen and Home Screen widget. When the scroll reflex fires, you meet the reed's longing instead of the feed. • Return — At night, one quiet reflection: what did this stir in you today? A private note, on your device alone. EIGHT SUFI PATHS Walk a curated journey through eight themes — The Reed (longing), The Polished Heart (the mirror), Bewilderment (wonder beyond cleverness), Love (the fire that ripens), The Guest House (welcoming every feeling), Presence & Remembrance, Dying Before Death, and The Friend (the Beloved). Each is a path of days, taken one at a time. DEPTH, NOT VIBES Every line is human-curated from public-domain scholarly translations — chiefly R. A. Nicholson's and E. H. Whinfield's Masnavi — and presented with full attribution, the theme it belongs to, and a quiet note on why it opens outward. This is the classical mystical-poetic tradition, handled with care. Not decontextualized "Rumi quotes." AI never authors the wisdom. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No cloud. No tracking. No ads. No streak guilt. Your reflections live on your device and nowhere else. The App Privacy label reads: Data Not Collected. A GENTLE REMINDER Set one optional evening nudge to return to the day's line. One quiet moment — never a notification storm. Sirr means "the secret" — the innermost heart. This is a small, devoted app for those drawn to Rumi and the Sufi way who want depth and dignity, not noise. "There is a candle in your heart, ready to be kindled. There is a void in your soul, ready to be filled. You feel it, don't you?" — Rumi Privacy Policy URL: https://agezgin.github.io/sirr/privacy.html Support URL: https://agezgin.github.io/sirr/support.html

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Alan Watts at 4 against Sirr's 1. Alan Watts also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.5). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
