## What is AnuLaya?

AnuLaya is a tabla composition player and practice tool for students and enthusiasts of Indian classical percussion.

Browse and create compositions organized by taal and category. Play any composition at adjustable tempo and follow along on a beat-aligned grid.

Practice with real-time feedback — play your tabla or sing along while the app scores your timing and stroke accuracy. Review cycle-by-cycle scores and track improvement over time.

Join a class with an invite code to access your teacher's curated compositions and playlists. Create your own compositions, organize them into playlists, and share them.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.3.8 — 2026-05-18

Faster launch and smoother practice.

What's new:
- Browse, playlists, and composition pages open instantly — no more loading spinner when you've seen them before.
- The lehra now switches to the right variant when you change tempo across a laya (e.g. vilambit to madhya), staying musical through the change.
- Tempo changes during playback land cleanly at the next phrase edge instead of mid-cycle.

### 1.3.1 — 2026-05-02

A polish release: smaller download, smoother practice audio, and fewer rough edges.

What's new:
- Tabla samples converted to FLAC for a ~75% smaller download, no quality loss.
- New Chautaal and Dhamar second-wave variations.
- Smoother practice audio with less drift on long sessions.
- Cleaner handling of audio interruptions (calls, alarms) and mic permission edge cases.
- Fixed a Listen-mode stop crash; Listen resets cleanly when switching between synthesized and reference playback.
- Cohort join-by-code retries automatically if auth is briefly unavailable.
- Fixed an iPad sign-in flash between sheet dismiss and setup.
- Settings shows the real installed app version and only offers email verification when relevant.
- Fixed a catalog cache decoding issue that could discard cached data.
- Fewer crashes from defensive fixes across the app.

### 1.0.0 — 2026-04-17

No release notes.
