Somewhere between a prayer and a poem, a 13th-century mystic is waiting to answer your question. RumiVerse brings the wisdom of Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī — poet, philosopher, and Sufi mystic — into your daily life as a living practice, not a passive read. Whether you're heartbroken, lost, seeking meaning, or simply curious about what one of history's greatest souls had to say, this app meets you exactly where you are. WISDOM — Ask Rumi Hold a question in your heart. Tap Ask. A poem arrives word by word, like a message carried across 800 years. Wisdom is the heart of RumiVerse — an intimate, meditative experience unlike anything else. Not a chatbot. Not a random quote generator. A moment of genuine reflection, grounded in Rumi's actual poetry. You can also browse suggested questions when you don't know where to begin. JOURNAL — Your Sacred Space A private, encrypted space to go deeper. Each day opens with Today's Meditation — a Rumi verse paired with a 3-breath contemplation to ground you before you write. Reflect on Your Wisdom connects your last received poem directly to the page as a seed for reflection. Rumi-grounded prompts guide you gently when words don't come. Your journal is yours alone — never shared, never analyzed. DAILY — A New Poem Every Morning Each morning brings a fresh Rumi poem in English alongside its original classical Persian — because the beauty of his words in Farsi is part of the gift. Every poem includes a reflection prompt and Going Deeper Sufi context, so you understand not just what Rumi said, but the world his words came from. INNER GARDEN — Curated Emotional Journeys Fifteen themed collections built for the moments life brings: When You're Heartbroken. When You Feel Alone. When You've Lost Your Way. Each journey includes 5–6 poems, an opening meditation, and a closing practice — a complete experience for when you need Rumi most. THE LINEAGE — Rumi's Story How does a brilliant Islamic scholar become the world's most-read poet? Meet Shams-e Tabrizi. Witness the transformation. Understand the Masnavi, the Divan-e Shams, and why Rumi's words have moved millions across 800 years. The Lineage is a rich, warm retelling — not an encyclopedia entry. AND MORE Masnavi guided reading. Seven ambient soundscapes — the haunting Ney flute, Zikr chant, rain, silence. Shareable cards. A Sacred Calendar of Sufi traditions. PREMIUM Free access includes one Wisdom per week, two Inner Garden journeys, and seven journal entries — enough to feel the depth. Premium unlocks everything: unlimited Wisdom, all 15 Inner Garden journeys, unlimited journaling, all soundscapes, and every Daily poem with full context. $6.99 / month or $39.99 / year — with a 3-day free trial. No commitment required. "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." — Rumi That field is here. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ — What's New in 1.1 Wisdom now suggests questions to ask Rumi, so you always have a place to begin.

New poems added throughout. Soundscape player updated for notched and Dynamic Island phones.
