Pray before you scroll. Hindu Mode locks the apps that pull you away, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat, whichever you choose, at your prayer times, and keeps them locked until you've done a short puja. Morning, sandhya, night. Then the phone is yours again, on your terms. It's not about more willpower. It's about who you turn to first. MADE FOR EVERY HINDU Tell us who you pray to, Shiva, Hanuman, Ganesha, Krishna, Lakshmi, Durga, Ram, Kali, Venkateswara, Murugan, Ayyappa, Shirdi Sai, and more, and every prayer is addressed to your ishta, in your language (English, Hindi, Hinglish, Tamil, Telugu, Gujarati, Marathi, Bengali, Kannada, Punjabi). This isn't one tradition's app. It's yours. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose the apps to lock and your prayer times 2. At puja time, your apps lock and you get a gentle nudge 3. Tell us how your mind is, restless, anxious, tired, grateful⦠4. Read the short prayer written for that moment, grounded in a real line of scripture 5. A few beads of jaap on the mala, or today's shloka, line by line 6. Your apps open. Go gently. YOUR TEXTS, NOT JUST ONE ⒠Hanuman Chalisa, Sundarkand, Ramcharitmanas, Ram Raksha ⒠Bhagavad Gita, all 700 verses, Sanskrit + meaning + reflection ⒠Shiv Chalisa, Rudrashtakam, Lingashtakam, Shiv Tandav, Mahamrityunjaya ⒠Durga Chalisa, Devi stotras, Argala, Saraswati Vandana ⒠Ganesh Atharvashirsha, Sankat Nashan, Pancharatnam ⒠Vishnu Sahasranama, Venkateswara Suprabhatam ⒠Lakshmi stotras, Shri Suktam, Kanakadhara ⒠Aartis, Om Jai Jagdish Hare, Jai Ganesh Deva, Om Jai Shiv Omkara⦠⒠Gayatri, Shanti mantras, Upanishads ⒠Kanda Shasti Kavasam, Harivarasanam, Sai aartis Every line in the original script with easy pronunciation and plain meaning. WHAT'S INSIDE ⒠Prayer locks, apps lock at set times and stay locked until you pray ⒠Strict mode, always locked, each prayer opens apps for a set window ⒠Prayers written for you, to your deity, in your language ⒠Jaap on your screen the way it's always been on a mala, one tap, one name ⒠Your mandir, a temple that grows with every prayer; miss days and the flame dims ⒠40-day sankalp, the traditional anushthan, one day at a time ⒠Read, every text, chapter by chapter, with highlights and notes ⒠Streaks, beads counted, hours reclaimed from the feed ⒠Today's line on your lock screen and home screen widgets ⒠3 emergency unlocks a month, for real emergencies *All features require an active subscription.* Your practice stays private: no account, no tracking of what you do in your apps, and your prayers never leave your phone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Aradhana at none against Hindu Mode's shown. Aradhana also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.0). Hindu Mode's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs monthly). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
