ZennChat: Daily Practice

ZennChat brings Buddhist teachings and meditation into daily life.

Each day you receive one passage from "The Teaching of Buddha," together with a small practice you can actually do that day. Read it, sit with it, write it down. Following the daily path on the home screen takes about ten minutes.

▸ Today's Teaching
A new passage every day, with commentary and a practice for the day. Includes text-to-speech and a home screen widget that changes daily even without a network connection.

▸ Today's Path
Reading, practice, sitting, reflection and study laid out as a single sequence, so you can see what today asks of you at a glance. Your streak and weekly record are kept.

▸ Ask a Zen Teacher
Bring what is on your mind to an AI grounded in Buddhist teachings. You can also ask a question directly from the passage you are reading.

▸ Meditation Timer
Five to thirty minutes. Voice guidance is optional and off by default, so silence stays the default. Sessions are recorded automatically.

▸ Practice Programs
Multi-day programs on compassion, wisdom and mindfulness. Each day has recitation, meditation, practice and reflection, and what you write is kept so you can read it again later.

▸ Good Intentions Journal
Record your morning intention, the good you did during the day, and your evening reflection. Weekly reports show how your virtues are developing.

▸ Look It Up
Search 365 teachings and 370 entries covering Zen phrases, terms, rituals, sutras and schools. Twenty-four curated collections gather passages for particular moments, such as grief, sleeplessness or anger.

▸ Take a Breath
When your mind is unsettled, open a quiet screen with a single passage and room to breathe.

▸ Buddhist Quiz
Learn teachings, history and terminology through 160 questions.

▸ Guide to the Masters
The lives and teachings of forty Zen masters and historical Buddhist figures.

▸ Give a Passage
Turn a passage that stayed with you into a single card and give it to someone.
