Useful on-the-go There's a wide range of pitches to choose from and we can also alternate the first string as required. The volume is nice and loud and the speed function is helpful. Timbre's a little harsh but this app will serve your purposes. 😀😀 The best part is.. IT'S FREE!! Tanpura droid is a great alternative to a Shruti box.

Thanks a ton First, u guys ve saved a lot of my money coz if I need to buy shruthi box it would burn my pocket. Second, I can carry it (shruthi box)as it sits in my phone :-). Thank u guys so much. However at higher pitch it is a bit Sharpe and need to b refined. The tempo also need refinement as it sounds a bit out of rhythm while playing in higher tempo or speed. Looking ahead for more of such apps. Hats off.

Nicely made app but doesn't seem to work on my OP2 after Marshmallow update It was working perfectly alright on my galaxy S4 and OP2 with previous version of Android. However after the Marshmallow update in June 2016, it hangs after 10 mins and I am left with no other option but to hard reboot my phone. I have now stopped using this app.

Good but beech beech mai atak atak kar chalta hai Acha hai but beech beech mai atak atak kar chalta hai 1saal se ye problem hai aaj dubara download kiya tab Bhi ek saal Pehle kiya tha jab Bhi ye he problem thi please fix this as soon as possible sound is like real tanpura per atak new wala problem must thik karo please

3 1/2 stars Yes, it works alright... though it has the occasional glitch looping (stop/start). The timbre seems a bit harsh for a background accompaniment. But hey, it's free and it works! And not for just 5 minutes like all the others. The best I've found so far... good enough, accurate pitch.

I Previously used it on a HTC Explorer phone. When I used to change the pitch (while it is already playing a pitch), it used to change to that particular pitch correctly. But now, I am using another phone(oneplus 2). The pitch is not changing when we change it. There seems to be some problem. Please resolve the problem.

Disturbance on pluging earphones It was the best tanpura i ever used.. But after recent uodate on marshmallow it is creating disturbances on pluging earphone... Earphone is totally fine coz it plays music without any intruption. Thanq plz add any updates to repair it..

Can be more natural sound This app is the only one which is good in comparison with others on android.It should mainly have more natural and acoustic sound. If you can add Drone couple selection as well. And 2 tanpuras possibly. But mainly the sound isint natural. So this app is helpful just to pull it off.

Sound is okay, but only for practice The sound of the tanpura in this is okay for practice sake, but not at the high quality level useful for a performance. The tracks available have heavier bass and a more natural sound which I prefer. the iTanpura app on the iPhone provides a better sound I think. Although I have limited experience with that app. Am using this one on the android and do appreciate the creator for making it. If you could equalize the sound better, or add options for heavier bass that would be great. Thanks!

Ultimate app Dear developer..... U have done a great job n thanks for making it free..... I want to request u to plz develop an for electronic tabla also..... it will be a boon for indian musicians.... i know electronic tabla can be difficult app to make as u have to program most of the taals with key tuning, fine tuning and tempo setting also..... i wud love it if it will have 2-3 memory options so that we can store few patterns in advance. I wud then request u to plz make a SWARMANDAL (SURMANDAL) app for us. Lv u guys

Very nicely done. Rather than spending big money on an electronic shruti box (or a tanpura!), I can have a good-sounding drone of any pitch or speed in my pocket. The only flaw I have seen is that the app insists on being in portrait orientation, which is rather a nuisance on a tablet.

Super It helps me a lot every day while practising my music. No need to carry shruthi box every where now or downlode paid apps now cause we have this its accurate and versatile.good thing I downloded this on my friends suggestion or I would have spent money on a shruthi box Tnx tnx Tnx

Excellent app I m literally very proud to say that it is the best app google play can provide. I m have been learning classical music from a long time n needed an electronic tanpura to practice at home, but in market it costs more than 6000 inr. I m really grateful to the developer for creating such an app...as it has all the features that an electronic Tanpura must have...I will rate it with 5 star.

Santhosh Only first string so its useless to practice for a serious singer. Only fr timepass v can use this app

Heaviness reducer ;-) Now, no need to carry the sruthi box everywhere-on ur phone, take tanpura droid, on it.....sruthi box ready!!!! Why carry that heavy (not much) thing now???

Deceiving.. Couldn't even use for practicing Although it looks like it sounds good, its way off from the actual swara frequency. This is the first and foremost thing for a tanpura to be usable, even for practicing.

This Tanpura is very good for learners like us.........................I also request to DROID for a new Application on "Surmondal Swar system" with common Ragas of Indian classical music. It is very necessary to us.............There is not good application in Google play store on it.

Facing lot of problems with this... Pitch shifting is not happening. Tried so many times installing and uninstalling the app. Kindly look into this issue.

Great but needs improvement. This app is wonderful. I've been using it for years. I've noticed that the app doesn't automatically stop during a call. It's a noticeable problem. Hope the developer fixes it soon...

Great..excellent.... Wow...its unbileavable. I have had problems with sruthi while practicing songs and ragas now this app provided me the help I required. A big big thanks to the developers.

Super Taanpura Lots of paid apps are there and lots of free but not so good. This one produces the right tone. Grab it if you want a mobile radel. Best free app for tanpura.

Good composition But it stops when screen goes off, say , after about 40 secs. I am using galaxy tab plus p 6200, android 3.2

Can't figure out My scale zz B flat n I don't have any idea if it plays out this or not.. I have tried A# but it sounds completely different to that of tanpura at that scale.. What do I do?

Disappointed I can't change first string and pitch in ZenFone laser . Pls give attention on it. Thank u in advance ..

4* great work swar systems u've eased my work... now I don't need to use my harmonium to tune my taanpura :-) wud've given 5 stars if the sound quality was more crystal clear :-) + the scale is a bit off tune than the standard harmoniumswara / ragini digital i believe , please check it :) thanks harshad

Please add an option for a notification in notification bar. Also add more high pitched srutis. It glitches sometimes.

Such a good app for All Musicians There are many apps for music related but like Tanpura no-one. Also paid apps are there but tonal Quality is also not good. Really helpful to all who not afford to buy manual n acoustics...

So far the best n most stable. No need to get others. There's always some sort of issue. If been using this now few years n reloaded it cos of changing phones so far....the best.

Little disappointed My phone Lenovo Vibe K5 isn't cooperating properly. Pa and ma aren't changing quickly. I've to exit the app and revisit to change the pitch.

Good effort (Tested on HTC Desire S) Very good effort, and excellent for a free app. Congratulations to the developer for putting this out as an app, and making this available on the go for all Indian music practitioners. However, The sound of all samples from A# to E are quite good. The samples could do better from E to upper A; they sound a bit dry.

It's really awesome!! For my samsung galaxy y....this app has been proved the best.though i haven't ever any other tanpura software...but swar systems have done a great job...keep it up guys...i m so happy that finally i have tanpura in my phone itself..:D!!

Best Tanpura App Thank you very much for this app. Sometimes it gets stuck without all the strings and uninstall is needed. But still the best Tanpura for Android.

Tanpura Wonderful application. Has facility to change scale. The most important feature is, provision for fine tuning with each scale, which is not available in any other applications, I came across. I request if you can also add Tabla in this application, tuned automatically to the scake of tanpura selecred, this feature will be unbeatable.

The sound is soothing, even after hours of practice you don't feel tired, the frequency in which it plays is not monotonous & tiring to the ears. Just Great. I am sure this app is used by all the Artist over the World.,

Excellent I always wanted to buy electronic tanpura but always felt it is way too costly but this after using dis app their is no need to buy electronic tanpura .its d best replacement you will ever come across

Good even for programs. Once I had a bhajan and forgot to take my shruthi box, I managed the whole program with this app by playing it in mic and the program went on really well... Excellent app. Keep it up...

Very nice but The voice isn't sweet enough like the real tanpura. Sort of harsh voice

Really good and helpful app..! Very nice and realistic sound quality. I'll give five stars if you update it to a five string tanpura with tunable fifth string...! Very good..!

All good with this app untill I receive a call it won't go silent it will still play in the background and make me asking the caller till i switch it off manually and this is cumbersome think if i am driving it is hard to hear the caller. Tech should work on it giving 3 star till then .. this is my daily app for my vocal practice and can't live without it so tech support please work on this problem.

Doesnt even download Hate it.... on my mobile it gets downloaded n it comes wonderfully but not on my tab :-( :'-(
