About this app

This app provides resources to support your daily practice of SGI Nichiren Buddhism. First, there is a chanting calculator that allows you to set and track chanting targets (campaigns). There is also an audio guide useful as an aid in learning the daily recitation of Nam Myoho Renge Kyo and the Lotus Sutra. You can set your goals and watch your progress! There are several other useful tools such as a location finder for SGI-USA facilities and links to the new World Tribune website.

Ratings and reviews

First, thanks so much for responding to my 5/23/19 review and fix the crashing bug! So fast! I really appreciate this app, it offers great support to my practice and inspires me to chant more. A great improvement would be being able to keep the daily daimoku count accumulating. It used to work that way but now it goes back to zero when I stop the counting clock--even if I don't close the app, just leave it idle in the background. Thanks again! 5/23 review: I love this app, but since 5/22 it keeps crashing more than before the 5/21 update. It crashes when I stop the daimoku count. it crashes when I push the settings button, it crashes if I try to go to the ID section, it crashes if I try to see the daily or accumulated chant count. Help please! from a Samsung Galaxy S9, latest Android update installed, all the rest working well. thanks!

I've found this app really helpful with my chanting and also to look up the SGI publications. It seems to have occasional issues with the biometric IDs, but I understand that's being updated. There has been a recent glitch where the time displayed on my phone freezes if I've been chanting for a long period. Has anyone else noticed this? (this is the Android version, specifically). If a screenshot is necessary, I can include that. I will follow up about this.

This is a terrible app! Overly complicated. If you want to return to a previous screen/page, you are taken completely out of the app and have to start all over again! This has been reported numerous times by other reviewers since 2018!! If you visit the Bookstore, there are no descriptions (just tiny, poor photos)!! The new Digital ID is overkill (a photo - REALLY?!) and complicated - the old Login was much easier. Where is Living Buddhism? App needs a TON of improvement!
