### 4/5 — question

*2023-06-02*

are you meant to pray towards bodhgaya? what’s this app for?

### 5/5 — Beautiful in its simplicity!

*2018-01-25*

Love the app! It's so simple in its execution but yet quite powerful in its effectiveness. The daily reminders are so key. 

For the developer: Would love to have the option to add more daily reminders. 3 is great, but would love to be able to add more. Also, it's not that apparent that we need to tap/click on each of the days of the week (M, T, W, T, F, S, S) circles/bubbles for each alarm in order to have the alarm activated for that particular day. The yellow (meaning active) also doesn't come off that clear in contrast to the white (meaning inactive). Thanks! 🙏
