If you mark 369 part mark as listened it will back scroll back on top then back it I have to scroll back on the 370 to mark it listened Then again it will go back up. Every few chapter will blank for few min It will stop in the middle I thought it’s WiFi issue but even it happened in the phone data. It stopped in the middle I back it up manually and try to back it up it will again stop. It does not remain where it left off please see buy few books on Audible and see it will keep you where it left off. Even if you listen to another book at same time. We kept akhand dhun and in loop phone heats up like crazy and it’s hot as if its blast . It’s not tested properly even there is no support email. ### 4/5 — App needs enhancement *2025-08-09* We've been using this app extensively, and it's fantastic—great content and impressive effort. At first, I thought the heating issue was specific to my phone, as it gets very hot while using the app. However, I noticed the same issue on my family's phones as well. I’m writing this review in hopes that the app can be optimized to reduce this heat issue. ### 2/5 — Gives an Error *2025-05-29* Internet is connected, yet it’s says “Please check internet connection.” ### 3/5 — App is taking long to play tracks and sync *2025-04-17* Dear Developers great app and initiative. However, after last 2 updates the app is not sync back with where you last left of on a track. It takes very long to load audio book tracks ### 3/5 — Unable to register or login *2025-02-24* I am unable to login as I am not receiving any otp. And it says number is already registered, though its my new number. ### 2/5 — Still needs work *2025-02-06* Still freezes, crashes, and is clunky. Needs some work still to make it reliable and seamless. Would also be nice if it remembers position in long tracks after playing another track. ### 4/5 — Good content. App glitches sometimes. *2024-12-12* Sometimes it doesn’t open at all. Has been happening since yesterday. Still have to been able to open. Please resolve it. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2024-02-18* I am using this app since 2 years and all kirtans are so nicely arranged according to cassettes it’s very easy to play all the time. But one thing there are many playlists in which tracks are not added such as BIRUD TIHARO etc. If possible please resolve this bug otherwise app is great use for all satsang related daily rituals. Thank you to BAPS Sanstha for making this wonderful app. Jai Swaminarayan 🙏🏻 ### 4/5 — Suggestion *2024-02-15* There should be a on and off button for auto play. ### 5/5 — Reading feature require *2023-11-03* Along with audio track if book pages are add then it will give amazing experience to the devotees. (Digital version of book with audiobook with the links of videos.) ### 4/5 — Add playback speed option *2023-04-29* Overall good app but needs improvement, app crashes sometimes and adding playback speed option would be really good. Hoping to see improvements and changes in near future. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unable to identify New Zealand number *2026-07-12, version 1.7* I have tried multiple times but this app doesn’t work and it keep giving me error to enter valid phone number, however, I am using correct phone number. Please help to sort this out. ### 1/5 — So many glitches! *2025-11-22, version 1.6* This app needs seriously improvements! ### 1/5 — Bugs need attention *2025-08-25* Too many bugs. Needs attention. Difficult to play songs right from the beginning. All bhajan starts from somewhere in the middle. No option to clear the same. At times app hangs a lot! ### 1/5 — Needs a update *2025-07-26* Needs an update to fix all the bugs that make for a frustrating experience. ### 1/5 — Things really not working out *2024-10-30* 1. Search engine is not showing the track 2. All Album and My like Section both are not getting fully loaded and displayed 3. Except PSM all the Jivancharitra are facing lag while scrolling(Kept a comparison though I have had same scrolling tap). Earlier, the app use to crash also. 4. No Reprt Problem button on App. Many many more issues Careless about the bugs and other things ### 1/5 — System Hangs *2024-10-20* Since the latest update, th. Some album(all albums section) lists no longer show up even after refreshing. The app also becomes slow and sometimes crash also when scrolling in some albums especially in Audiobooks section. I’ve reinstalled it and tried every possible solutions These issues weren’t there before the update. There is no report option or contact details in the app if crash happens or any review or contact details ### 1/5 — Does not work all the time *2024-10-11, version 1.3* The app repeatedly fails to open, which is quite frustrating as it prevents me from accessing its excellent content. ### 1/5 — Not receive verification code *2024-10-07, version 1.3* .05 ### 1/5 — System Hangs *2024-10-04* Imagine if PSM would take review of work you would atleast do better so please. ### 1/5 — Shikshapatri with 212 verses/shloks *2022-11-23, version 1.2* One of the BAPS person suggested to download this app to read all the 212 verses/shloks from Shikshapatri. I was not able to find it in the app… the BAPS.org website doesn’t have the complete Shikshapatri too… Hope BAPS have the Shikshapatri written by Swaminarayan himself containing all 212 shloks ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — New update feedback as of 20th Feb 2026 *2026-02-22* I have been listening to the Vachnamrut. After the completion of one Vachnamrut the next one starts with about 1-2 minutes forward. This should be corrected. Also check that the series is maintained as in a few occasions I have observed that it skips and opens either the previous or next vachnamrut but not the running Vachnamrut if paused or stopped in middle. ### 5/5 — Fantastic app with so much content *2026-02-06* This is my go to app to listen to everything to enhance my knowledge. Keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — Music *2025-11-12* Each kirtan is make a day ### 5/5 — Track Download Issue *2025-10-22* I tried multiple times to download the track but it is not starting & showing in downloading tab also i tried restarting app!

Unable to clear the history when selecting clear history and when you double tap okay it doesn't clear the history. Please fix this. The tabs at the botom are not labeled with voiceover. Please clearly label the tabs. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
