Vaheguru Jee Ka Khalsa, Vaheguru Jee Kee Fateh Just wondering if anyone can produce or if anyone is in the process of producing software for new platforms like the iPhone for example. If you take a look at the apps available for the iPhone, you get the Bible (in many languages), the Quran (translated and in other languages) etc but not 1 app to do with Sikhism like SikhiToTheMax.
