<!-- /section:features -->

<!-- section:market-position -->
## Market Position {#market-position}

<!-- section:so-what -->
## The "So What?" (Strategic Takeaway) {#so-what}

ISKCON NOW is a lifestyle app that is completely free.
It holds a 1/5 rating from 2 reviews.

<!-- speakable-start -->
> **Bottom Line:** ISKCON NOW functions as a dormant content repository, because the lack of updates since 2015 has effectively broken the user experience, so the organization should either sunset the app or commit to a full technical refresh.
<!-- speakable-end -->

**Best for:** Followers and members of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness.

<!-- section:pm-actions -->
### PM Action Plan (Next Best Moves)

- [ ] [SUNSET] Sunset the current app because the 10-year maintenance gap renders it non-functional -> reduce brand friction
<!-- /section:pm-actions -->

<!-- section:outlook -->
### Outlook: Declining

The market for niche spiritual content is shifting toward modern, high-engagement video platforms, leaving legacy static apps like ISKCON NOW behind. Without a total technical refresh, the app will continue to erode brand perception rather than serve its intended audience.

- 🔴 The app has remained in maintenance mode for over 3,900 days, signaling a complete lack of active investment.
- 🔴 A 1.0-star rating baseline suggests the current build is non-functional for most users, necessitating a total rebuild to restore utility.
