Why create this App

The software that supports it (the software alone, cost to enable this to be built cost $2,787 USD/year/person, then there is the fees from Apple for the App to be merely available on an iPhone(free or otherwise), the servers that host it, the Internet usage charges that communicate it, maintaining the content on the website and App, when we could be doing something else.
I hope there is a balance of fairness, either advertises pay for the rent or the users of this App do or a mix. From a Buddhist perspective, you 'Make Causes', these are like Karmic Seeds which yield benefits that lead to victories. Just using this App will yield benefits as your Daimoku is never wasted. The difference is in using this App and the back-end services around the world that make it possible, you are clearly Many in Body and One in Mind, this is then focused on your common victories to realize Actual Proof.

The very basics of this project is that somebody somewhere is chanting, but where? If you are using this app and have pressed the Go/Start button, where you are in the world is tracked so we know what is your nearest big city, country and most importantly your timezone. Whilst the start and stop time is recorded in UTC, and is real time, this meant the goal of a Ceaseless Flow of Daimoku. As long as one person starts chanting the moment someone else stops chanting, the Flow of Daimoku continues.
