# Psalmo

> Psalmo is a Bible verse widget app for iOS and Android. It puts daily scripture on the home screen and lock screen, blocks distracting apps until the user has read today's verse, and ships with 15+ aesthetic themes. The widget is the product; the app is the settings panel.

## What Psalmo does
- **Bible widgets** in three home-screen sizes (small, medium, large) and lock-screen accessory widgets on iOS 16+
- **Daily verse rotation** with auto-refresh at midnight via WidgetKit Timeline (iOS) and WorkManager (Android)
- **Verse categories** like Anxiety, Gratitude, Hope, Strength, Healing, Forgiveness, Family — surfaced based on what the user is going through
- **App blocking ("God Before the Scroll")** — pause Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, Snapchat until the user has read today's verse
- **AI prayer & reflection** — generate a short, sincere prayer or have a verse explained
- **Translations:** King James Version (KJV) and World English Bible (WEB), both public domain

## Pricing
Free with three themes and the daily verse widget. Premium unlocks all themes, all categories, lock-screen widgets, custom photo backgrounds, and AI features. Free trial on the annual plan.

## Audience
Bible readers, devotional users, Christians (and the broader "ChristianTok" / faith-curious audience) who want scripture present throughout the day rather than buried inside a Bible app icon they only open occasionally.

## Editorial principles
- Reverent but not preachy. Plainspoken, never saccharine.
- Cite scripture clearly with book + chapter:verse and translation.
- Practical guides ("how to add a Bible widget on iPhone") use concrete steps, not motivational filler.
- No streak-shame, no fear-based copy, no AI-generated devotionals presented as human-written devotionals.
