Overview
Sundar Gutka is used every day by Sikhs around the world to read Nitnem and other Banis. The product has to work reliably on a wide range of devices, stay readable for long sessions, and feel calm and focused rather than cluttered.
Our work centers on shaping the product direction, improving the reading experience, and strengthening the foundation the app is built on. That includes typography choices for Gurmukhi and translations, navigation between Banis, settings that are easy to understand, and performance that feels smooth even on older phones.
The goal is to keep the app feeling familiar for long-time users while gently modernizing it so younger Sangat and new users can pick it up without friction.
