Getting to Know
For first layers, soft openings, and discovering the person beyond the usual script.
What is a small thing that made you feel seen recently?
Kailan ka recently nakaramdam na, "uy, nakita ako"?
Small questions can open the room in a way big speeches usually cannot. Kumustahan gives that moment a soft place to land.
Questions for the way we actually talk. In English. In Filipino/Tagalog. In the language of the room. For slow nights, dinner tables, after-church tambay, long drives, quiet mornings, and the kind of honesty that does not need a spotlight.
Where it fits
Conversation starters for the room you are actually in.
Kumustahan is a bilingual conversation starters app and conversation card app for real-time kuwentuhan: across a table, in the car, after church, or during a quiet night at home. No feed. No chatbot. No pressure to perform.
Pick a deck, draw one conversation card, and answer in English, Filipino/Tagalog, or both. Some questions are light. Some are reflective. The point is not to force depth; it is to give the room an easier place to begin.
- Friends and barkada For the part of the night when everyone is still there, but the small talk has run out.
- Couples For date nights that want something softer than updates, schedules, and logistics.
- Lifegroups For sharing that leaves room for testimony, doubt, prayer, ordinary life, and silence.
- Solo reflection For quiet mornings, late nights, and moments when one honest question is enough.

Crafted to feel like paper, not a platform.
Kumustahan is built around a slower kind of product quality: tactile cards, bilingual presence, gentle motion, and an offline core that keeps attention in the room.
Offline-first
Open it anywhere. A living room, a retreat, a cafe, a commute. No signal needed for the core experience.
Bilingual by design
English and Filipino/Tagalog sit side by side, so people can answer in the language that feels natural.
Physical card feel
Cards breathe, lift, flip, and settle with soft weight. Digital, but not weightless.
Gentle depth
Questions open slowly. Walang pilit, walang performance. Just enough courage for the next honest answer.
No accounts. No ads.
No internet, no feed, no funnel. Pick a deck, draw a card, and let the conversation stay yours.
Shareable by nature
A question worth keeping should feel good outside the app too.
Kumustahan's visual system carries into share cards: warm paper, quiet ink, and enough negative space for the question to stay sacred.
A small app with a lot of room inside.

FAQ
A few honest answers before you draw a card.
Kumustahan is simple on purpose: open the app, pick a deck, draw a question, and let the room answer in the language that feels most true.
What is Kumustahan?
Kumustahan is a bilingual conversation starters app made of digital conversation cards. Each card has a question on the front and a gentle reframe or reflection on the back. You draw, flip, answer, and keep the kuwentuhan going.
Is this a game, therapy app, or chat app?
No. Kumustahan has no points, winners, timers, feeds, DMs, diagnoses, or self-help promises. It is closer to a beautiful card deck you bring to the table when the room is ready for a better question.
Who is it for?
It is for solo reflection, date nights, deep friend hangs, barkada dinners, family gatherings, mentor circles, retreats, and lifegroups. You can use it alone, with one person, or with a small group.
Does Kumustahan work offline?
Yes. The core card experience works offline. No signal, login, or account is needed to pick a deck and start drawing cards.
What languages does it support?
Kumustahan supports English and Filipino/Tagalog at launch. The Filipino/Tagalog side is not treated like a translation layer; it is written to sound natural in real conversation.
What decks are included?
The free app includes five decks: Getting to Know, Fun & Light, Self Reflection, Lifegroup & Faith, and the new Couples deck. Each one is made for a different kind of room, from light openings to quieter reflection. The Couples deck starts with 60 free cards — see the Couples Edition for the full story.
Is it free?
Yes. The core app is free, including the launch decks, the first 60 Couples cards, Question of the Day, favorites, notes, bilingual toggle, and the full card experience. Some decks grow with optional expansions you'll discover inside the app — never subscriptions — and the free tier is meant to be genuinely useful.
Will there be ads, accounts, or subscriptions?
Not in v1. Kumustahan is designed without ads, required accounts, or subscriptions. A soft conversation space should not feel like a feed or a funnel.
Is the Faith deck only for Christians?
The Lifegroup & Faith deck is written with Christian small groups and lifegroups in mind, but it is meant to be warm rather than preachy. It gives room for testimony, doubt, prayer, ordinary life, and honest reflection.
How is this different from other conversation card decks?
Kumustahan is bilingual by design, offline, and built for more than one context. It is not just for couples, not just for parties, and not just an English deck with Filipino/Tagalog added later. It is made for people who want warmer conversation starters in either language.
