Happy National Day, Singapore! 🇸🇬❤️ As parents, we take thousands of photos of our children. Their first National Day. The playground they loved. The neighbourhood they grew up in. The food we always ate together. The little family traditions that felt completely ordinary at the time. But one day, these ordinary moments will become part of their history. Photos help us remember what happened. Stories help our loved ones understand what those moments meant. So this National Day, perhaps take...

The First App in Singapore That Lets You Ask the Holy Qur'an

Jun 28, 2026

Breaking the Language Barrier to Understanding the Qur'an For many Muslims, learning to read the Holy Qur'an is an important part of growing up. But understanding it is often a different journey altogether. One of the biggest barriers is language. While millions of Muslims around the world can recite the Qur'an in Arabic, many do not fully understand the meaning behind the verses or know where to begin when searching for guidance on everyday questions. At hrtg, we asked ourselves a simple...

Cultivate Good Habits

Apr 14, 2026

Grow your tree. 🌳 Cultivate values through small good habits. We often talk to our children & loved ones about kindness, responsibility, and gratitude. But values are not learned through lectures. They grow through small actions repeated every day. Saying thank you. Helping to set the table. Being kind. Tiny actions. Repeated consistently. Over time, those small habits quietly become values. This thought stayed with me for a long time. And it eventually led us to build something small. At ...

Why we take security seriously at hrtg One of the core problems we want to solve with hrtg is generational wealth. Not just conversations about money, but the practical reality of passing things on — safely, clearly, and responsibly. At the heart of hrtg is a financial feature that allows users to record and organise important asset information, such as property deeds, insurance details, and even crypto assets, so that these can be passed on to the next generation when the time is right. In...

The beginning of a new year always carries a special feeling. New hope. Fresh motivation. New goals waiting to take shape.

A year filled with moments, lessons, and stories that quietly shape who we become. At hrtg, we believe these experiences matter. Not just for ourselves, but for the people we love. The lessons we learn along the way are often the most valuable...

As we approach the end of 2025, we wanted to do something a little different. This time, we won’t be sharing product updates, feature announcements, or build progress.

Perhaps some bitterness, perhaps unexpected happiness. But no matter how the year unfolded, it likely offered you another opportunity to grow; to learn...
