Ratings and reviews

Absolutely wonderful app. Every tune I come across and can't remember the raga name, few keys later I know it. Also a great to differentiate raga which are close and need to know that aarohaNam and avarohaNam. The developers recently added a pitch pipe function which is really amazing. I really could not have imagined a better implementation. My old suggestion still stands, to enable an export of favourite raga list and to re-import them after reinstall/ phone replacement.

I appreciate and totally support your hardwork. The only this needs a immediate change is the tone used. It works have been better if we could change to some other sound. This sound is twisting and breaking at high notes. Change will give your app a very good feed. Good luck to you and team

The plus or minus number speed is not accurate. It would be useful if given on all 3 speeds with thala exclamation. Also, I wish you could add Geethams & keep on improving.... Notes some times are not accurate. Over flips. Overall, useful application . I sincerely thank you.
