InkMoment - Daily Poem Widget
A poem for this very moment
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A classical verse chosen daily by season and weather. Vertical calligraphy, vermilion seal, six traditional palettes, three widget sizes, 3,000+ searchable lines.
One fitting line of poetry, on your home screen.
InkMoment is not a poetry database. It is a curator. It reads the current weather,
hour, solar term, and moon phase, then chooses one line from 3,192 classical Chinese
poems that suits the moment — rain has its lines, early autumn has its own.
■ Vertical, the way it was written
Real vertical typesetting: columns running right to left, punctuation in its proper
vertical form, the colophon to the left of the poem, the seal following the last word.
Not horizontal text rotated ninety degrees.
■ Home screen and Lock Screen
Three home-screen widget sizes plus three Lock Screen forms. Widgets change with the
sky — you never need to open the app.
■ Paper cards
Export as wallpaper, square, or tall card, with paper texture and your own seal.
Free to export, with no watermark.
■ Solar term almanac
The 24 solar terms and 72 pentads, each paired with a poem.
■ Traditional/Simplified · Vertical/Horizontal · Four languages
Poems in traditional or simplified characters, set vertically or horizontally.
Interface in Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and English.
■ About the purchase
One payment, yours permanently. No subscription, no auto-renewal, no account.
The free tier is meant to be lived with: the Plain Paper style (S/M/L), two traditional
colour themes, the daily poem, the solar term almanac, script and orientation switching,
and watermark-free card export.
The purchase unlocks all five widget styles, all six traditional colour themes,
paper textures with the seal, and the weather-linked widget.
■ About weather
Weather comes from Apple WeatherKit and is used only to choose a poem. Declining
location access is fine — the app then selects by solar term and time of day, and you
can pick a city manually.
