Description
Daily Violence Counter (DVC) is a lifestyle and self-improvement mobile application developed by Vnurture Technologies. It is designed to help users track, quantify, and reduce the indirect environmental and physical "violence" (hinsa) generated by their day-to-day choices.
Core Purpose
The app operates on the principle of self-awareness and harm reduction—encouraging users to minimize their personal footprint of violence across various daily actions. By calculating a personal "Daily Violence Counter (DVC) Score," users can review their habits and actively work toward lifestyle choices that promote non-violence (ahimsa).
Key Features & Functions
Category-Based Daily Tracking: Users log habits across specific routines such as Basic Routine, Food & Consumption, Shopping, Entertainment, and Spiritual/Occasional Activities.
Resource & Consumption Metrics: Tracks impact based on resource usage, such as electricity, gas, water consumption, and diet choices (e.g., dairy or meat consumption, plant-based alternatives).
DVC Score & Performance Grading: Converts user logs into an overall daily score and grade (e.g., scoring out of 100) to give immediate feedback on lifestyle impact.
Analytics & Performance History: Features a dashboard where users can review historical trends, spot high-impact categories, and set targets for self-betterment.
