### 5/5 — Love it

*2026-05-18*

What a wonderful idea and an exceptionally well-designed app! I really appreciate how clean, simple, and intuitive the experience is, making it easy even for someone without technical knowledge to use comfortably. Kudos to you for both the creativity behind the concept and the excellent technical execution.

I recently used the app while listening to a concert, and for the first time in my life, I was actually able to follow the ragamalika section — understanding which ragas were being sung and noticing exactly when the transitions happened. That experience gave me a completely new level of appreciation for the music. Your app has genuinely renewed my interest in listening to and exploring more Carnatic music.

Thank you as well for so generously keeping the app free for everyone to enjoy.

### 5/5 — Promising app

*2026-03-28*

Very useful app for people like me who like Carnatic Music, but don’t know the technicalities.

One suggestion - maybe provide a mechanism to specify a raga if the app misidentifies it.  For example, it identified Ratipatipriya as Abheri, Chandrakauns as Madhuvanti (though can understand the latter)


Keep up the great work

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words and for trying the app!

You're right that similar ragas can get confused. This is also why the app tries to show the detected swaras in the arohanam and avarohanam, so even when the raga name is off, you can identify the actual raga yourself.

I'm actively improving detection accuracy. Really appreciate the thoughtful feedback!
