User reviews

Good experience along with good UI

Have been using this app for the last few days. The UI is clean and the overall expedite is nice. The information about the Avesta is also expansive and very well put together. Kudos to the developer

Most insightful Zoroastrian app

This app has really helped me to learn more about my religion. It has the entire Avesta and all the prayers. It has english translations too. This is the most amazing app if you wanna learn about Zoroastrianism

Khashno Tharoure Mazdao

An astonishing compendium of all Zoroastrian scriptures in Roman and Avestan script, fully catalogued and searchable. Slightly cumbersome to use because the human interface is not intuitive. Bit you get the hang of it after a few tries. All credit to its designer for his dedication. 🙏

The best Avesta app

The entire Avesta in a beautiful user interface. This is the best Avesta app for Zoroastrians.
