The app
Where do I get the app?
On the App Store and on Google Play, listed as Mitr: Wisdom Companion. iOS 16 or later is required.
What does mitr actually do?
You describe what is on your mind. The app responds with one idea from the Bhagavad Gita and related texts, explained in plain language. A daily check-in across five areas determines which practice is suggested that day.
Is mitr therapy?
No. mitr cannot diagnose or treat any condition and is not a substitute for professional care. Full statement of what it is and is not.
Does the score go up if I practice every day?
The score is your own answer at the check-in, so completing a practice does not move it by itself. It changes when you next check in and report how you are. Regularity matters more than intensity, and we make no promise about a number. More about the daily practice.
Do I need to know anything about the Bhagavad Gita?
No. The material is explained in plain language, without Sanskrit terms in the interface.
What is the Peace Journal?
A private place to write. You can start from a prompt or a blank page, keep a verse, or write your own response to something from a conversation. Nothing written there is posted, shown to anyone or read by mitr, and it is removed when you delete your account. More about this.
Is there anything in the app besides the daily practice?
Yes. There is a place to sit with what other people are carrying, anonymously unless they choose to show their name, and a way to find temples, centers and gatherings near you, along with online ones. We take no bookings and handle no payments: where a gathering asks you to register, you deal with the host directly. There are no followers, no likes and no attendance counts. Listings are suggestions rather than endorsements, we do not verify them, and you should confirm the details with the host and decide for yourself before attending. Coverage is fullest in the cities we have started in and thinner elsewhere. More about how that fits with the daily practice.
Which languages are supported?
English at launch. Additional languages are planned but not scheduled.
Is there a minimum age?
Yes. mitr is for adults aged eighteen and over, in every country.
Price and billing
What does it cost?
Everything is open free for thirty days. In the United States it is then 9.99 US dollars a month or 79.99 US dollars a year. Prices are set separately for each country or region, so the price where you live may differ; your store shows it before you confirm. Full terms.
Will I be charged during the trial?
No. If you cancel before the thirty days end, you pay nothing.
How do I cancel?
In your Apple or Google account settings. Instructions for both platforms. We cannot cancel on your behalf.
Can I get a refund?
Refunds are handled by Apple and Google under their own policies. Contact us and we will help you identify the correct route.
Data and privacy
Are my conversations used to train AI models?
No. Conversation content is never used to train our models or those of our processing partners. See the privacy policy.
Does anyone read my conversations?
No member of staff reads your conversation in order to reply to it. Access to data is restricted on a need-to-know basis and described in the privacy policy.
How do I delete my account?
In the app under Settings, or by requesting deletion here if you have already removed the app. That page states what is deleted, what is retained and for how long.
Accuracy and safety
Can the app get things wrong?
Yes. Responses are generated by an AI model and can be inaccurate, including on the tradition itself. Report errors to team@bewithmitr.com and we will check them against the source.
Are the verses authoritative translations?
No. They are our own plain renderings, and no religious or academic body has endorsed them.
What happens if I am in crisis?
mitr is not an emergency service and detects crisis unreliably. Use a helpline. Crisis resources are available in the app at all times, regardless of subscription status.
