    ANNOUNCEMENT: The RETURN of the Treeleaf "DAILY WISDOM/Dharma Leafs" Phone APP !

    Dear All,

    I am pleased to announce that our Treeleaf "DAILY WISDOM/Dharma Leafs" phone app is available again, now ready for both ANDROID and IPhone!

    The app is very simple: With a click, a few words of Zen wisdom pop up, to be repeated, followed by a certain number of breaths. It is good practice during one's busy day, especially at those moments when life gets a little trying.


    To access:

    Android, Google Play Store: Search for "Dharma Leafs". Include the quotes when searching, this will make finding it much easier.

    Apple IOS, App Store: search for TreeLeafs.


    At trying moments during the day, recite the quote once slowly, then focus on the breath for the times indicated.




    Many of the sayings were suggested by Treeleaf members at the time of the app's original development.

    I would like to thank our Treeleaf member, Drew, for all his hard work these past many weeks to update the coding, and also get it ready and uploaded to both the Play Store and for Apple. I would also like to thank again Ongen, the original developer of the app.

    Lovely.

    There is no charge for the app, of course, and it is meant to be both free and freeing. As far as I know, as a good Buddhist app, it is free of "malware" and the like too. Only "goodware."

    Gassho, Jundo

            Thank you Jundo and fellow developers

            I have been searching for the "Dharma Leafs" (also tried without quotes) in the Play Store
            and couldn't find the app. so far. Anyone here succeeded with the Android?

                  Washin, I had my son search last night and it came up. So I'm not sure why you had a problem. The only thing I can think of is a geographical issue.

                  Kotei, Thanks so much for jumping in, deep bows.

                    Thank you Kotei. I followed the link and it says "this application is not optimized for your device"
                    which is strange as I owe relatively new Samsung Galaxy version of the phone and tablet.

                    This may also be a thing. Thank you Drew.

                      Hello Washin,
                      it's working on a Galaxy S9+ over here.
                      The idea about the geographical issue sounds possible... issues with Cyrillic letters or just other defaults for your location...

                        I have been making good use of the app for short meditations through the day. It is really wonderful. I shared the app with my wife and my mom. /\

                          Alas, I am getting the same "not compatible" message here in Japan when trying to download from the Play Store. Hmmm. My phone is a Fujitsu Android, not so old or young (like me).

                            Also, someone on facebook asked this question. I am not sure, as I cannot download yet ...

                            What is the screen that has a lot of text on it but it disappears immediately in between the Zen wisdom and breaths images? I wanted to read it, however it simply jumps off the screen and disappears immediately. Curious as to what it says.
                            Can someone let me know. Thank you.

                              Hi Jundo --

                              I think the text they are referring to is the app description (what you can pull up by tapping on the question mark in the lower right corner of the app). It flashes super quick, but I think I caught enough of it to confirm it Here's a screenshot of the text I'm referring to:

                              Screenshot_20200212-210018.png

                              Love the app, by the way. Thank you Jundo, Drew and Ongen for your work on this!

                              Gassho,
