Rushi v1.0 - Diamond Sutra and Heart Sutra reader, 108-bead mala counter, sutra calligraphy practice. One-time purchase. No ads, no account. Thank you for your support. Rushi is a quiet Buddhist toolkit for sutra reading, mala counting, and sutra calligraphy. One paid download. No ads, no subscriptions, no account, no data collection. [About the name "Rushi"] From the opening of the Diamond Sutra: "Thus have I heard" (如是我聞). We hope the app feels like those two words - quiet, honest, sparing. [Three core features] Read Full Diamond Sutra and Heart Sutra (public-domain Kumarajiva and Xuanzang translations). Five font sizes, multiple paper backgrounds, paragraph bookmarks, fully offline. 108-bead Mala Bead counter (adjustable 18-108). Five sounds: wooden fish, bell, chime, om, bead. Haptic feedback, history log, weekly and monthly goals, dedication on completion. Sutra Calligraphy Trace regular-script (Kaishu) templates with finger or stylus. Save your works to a personal collection. Export to PDF. [Why a paid download] Full features unlocked at download. No in-app purchases. All v1.x updates are free. We do not sell subscriptions, do not show ads, do not request your contacts, and do not track any behavioral data. [Respect for practice] We never show a rating prompt while you chant with closed eyes. No "X-day streak" badges, no gamification of practice. The app stays out of your way. [Transparent sources] Sutra texts from CBETA Chinese Electronic Tripitaka (public-domain Kumarajiva and Xuanzang translations), NDL Digital Collections, KABC, Wikisource, and other openly available scholarly archives. Bead sounds from FreeSound (CC0) and self-recorded. All sources are listed in the in-app About page. [v1.0 sutra text coverage] Full sutra text is included in 9 languages: Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, French, German, Tibetan. The user interface is also localized in 7 additional languages (Thai, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Italian, Indonesian, Hindi). Sutra text in these languages is not yet shipped and will be added in future updates as public-domain or properly licensed editions become available. [About the developer] This is my first iOS app, made by a solo Buddhist practitioner. No third-party SDKs. No external servers. Feedback is welcome via the in-app About page. [Privacy] The app makes no network calls. All data stays on your device. Privacy policy: https://hooosberg.github.io/Rushi/privacy.html [Not a religious service] This is a paid utility app for Buddhist practice support. It does not sell merit, salvation, or spiritual outcomes. All scripture text is from public-domain sources.
