An amazing app!
After I searched the Internet successfully on how to create a paper Maya Calendar Round, I wanted an app that consolidated my further research in one place. This app did that and even more.
The app opens with a 3D view gear wheels within wheels: A 3D view of the Maya Calendar Round.
Not only can I get the Haab and Tzolkin dates for my paper Calendar Round on the Explorer page, but so much more information is available there and elsewhere.
Under the settings, i can see regular numerals or Maya numerals.
On the Explorer page, I can view “Kin” (Days) for:
The Long Count: Days elapsed from creation
Haab: Days elapsed in the current Solar 365 Day Year
Tzolkin: Days elapsed in the current Sacred 260 Day Year
The Moon with its phase for the displayed date is shown.
The search icon is everywhere which leads to explanatory pages for various subjects.
At the bottom of the app, there is a horizontal scroll bar. Scroll left for previous dates & scroll right for future dates from the current date.
There is a Glyphs page for any date that can be downloaded and/or emailed.
There is an Oracle page for those who enjoy this subject.
On top of all of the above, the app is totally free and without any ads! No other app comes close!

App
This is not worth downloading this app I feel like I am restricted doing things and this was a waste of space this app is not good at all so don't get the app
Precise, very good reference.
It works great and I have enjoyed it. Has plenty of reference included and the glyph sets are very precise.
It has a problem with a couple of labels that are superimposed on the explorer window and are almost impossible to read, they say Explorer and NOW one over the other. This is the same as in the other similar app.
It has also stopped working, it freezes when sharing or at some other seemly random situations. Iphone 12 pro max.

How do I use this app
Awesome
Love this. Great animation and awesome depth.
Wow
This is an amazing app. The amount of detail is astonishing. I am so impressed on the moon phases under the Explorer tab and the Oracle tab. I type the birthdays of me and my family’s and it’s so-spot-on that it’s actually scary. Great job!!!
Love it
I'm checking oracle every day!
Essential maya app
I use this all the time. It's perfect.. I would only ask to do long count dates beyond the next piktun, and if possible pre creation dates would be handy also..thanks. 8ix
