GSRIyaz is an app built by GSRI (Gurmat Sangeet Research Internship) 2023 Intern Ishmeet Singh from Texas. This initial release includes 7 tools: Translator, Notes2Raag, Raag Quest, Ear Training, Sur Abhyas, Alankars, and Layakari. Check out https://youtu.be/wL_eHcKgj-Y?si=BVc-DokOvwdQulO1 video on how to best use this app. Translator tool allows selecting one of the 31 raags from Sri Guru Granth Sahib and the scale (such as C#, D#, A#, and so on) and it shows Aaroh and Avroh of that raag in the selected scale. This is useful for instrument tuning or for quick reference of notes in the raag. Notes2Raag tool shows the raags that make use of provided three or more notes. Sur Abhyas tool allows generating random sequences of notes/phrases provided. Alankars tool can be used to build and practice alankars based on the notes selected. Layakaari tool allows practicing the concepts taal jaatis and chhands. For a given phrase, this tool can generate random sequences of notes in selected jaati (for example, 3-3-2 or 4-4 for a given phrase of 8 notes). Ear Training: An important aspect of music education - listen and recognize sur or taal! Raag Quest: Listen to an audio clip and try to figure out the raag used - learning by listening! More questions are added to Raag Quest tool in releases 1.0.5 and 1.0.6.

Adapto - Adaptive Screen Time You don’t need more screen time rules. You need the right rules at the right time. Not every moment of your day is the same. Morning isn’t bedtime. School isn’t the weekend. Family time isn’t homework. Why should your screen time treat them the same? Yet that’s exactly how most screen time apps work. One set of rules. One schedule. All day long. Real life doesn’t work that way. That’s why we created Adaptive Screen Time. Adapto automatically adapts your screen time rules throughout your day, so your phone works with your life—not against it. -------------- Every moment deserves its own rules. Create routines for the moments that matter most. • Morning • School • Homework • Family Time • Bedtime • Weekends Or create routines that fit your own life. Every routine can have its own: • App Limits • App Blocking • Website Restrictions • Allowed Apps • Protection Settings When one routine ends, the next one begins automatically. No manual switching. No remembering schedules. No repeating the same settings every day. Just the right rules at the right time. -------- Built around your life. Most screen time apps start with one question: “What apps do you want to block?” Adapto starts with a different one: “What does your day look like?” Because screen time isn’t just about apps. It’s about your life. The apps you need during school aren’t the ones you need during family dinner. The rules that help you focus during homework aren’t the same rules you need on a relaxing weekend. Instead of forcing one set of rules to fit every moment, Adapto lets every moment have its own rules. That’s Adaptive Screen Time. ------------- Designed for healthier digital habits. Whether you’re creating healthier habits for yourself, setting better boundaries for your family, or helping your child build a balanced relationship with technology, Adapto adapts with your day—not against it. Because healthier screen time isn’t about blocking more apps. It’s about creating the right environment at the right moment. ------------- Welcome to Adaptive Screen Time. Technology shouldn’t force you to change your life. Technology should adapt to it. Welcome to Adapto.
