## What is Dha?

Learn tabla through guided lessons, thekas, kaydas, relas and focused riyaz. Dha combines a playable dayan and bayan with 28 taals, sam and khali markers, tanpura, lehera, metronome, MIDI and an Audio Unit extension.

Practice feedback is honest by design. Audio stays on your device, and Dha grades only timing evidence it can measure clearly: pulse, relative spacing, tempo consistency and whether you returned to sam. When the recording is too quiet, clipped or uncertain, Dha abstains instead of guessing. Bol identity is guided and self-reviewed; it is not presented as automated recognition.

Build a daily riyaz habit with practice days, XP, levels, assigned practice and earned milestones. Recite padhant in timing mode, revisit saved takes with local playback, and share a vertical first-win card with your real taal, tempo, stars and sam result. Private challenge links let friends and family try the same taal and tempo without public profiles or leaderboards.

The playable tabla, tanpura, lehera, metronome, AUv3 and MIDI tools remain available without a subscription. Unlock the complete learning journey monthly, yearly or once with Dha Lifetime. Your local practice history and streak remain readable if a subscription ends, and restoring access is immediate.

Dha is a Soloist app. A real teacher still matters; the app is a private practice companion, not a claim of guru lineage.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 3.2.1 — 2026-08-21

Fixes Check My Timing.

Two players wrote in: every timing check ended with "The microphone route is not ready yet," even though mic permission was on and Voice Memos recorded fine. Try again never recovered, and reinstalling didn't help. They were right, and it wasn't their phones — the app was opening the microphone in a way that could come up dead, and every retry reused that same dead route.

Now each check opens a fresh audio engine, verifies the mic is actually live before you play, and rebuilds it from scratch if it isn't. The misleading "reconnect your microphone" message is gone too — nothing was ever wrong with your hardware.

Thank you to the two people who reported this.

### 3.2.0 — 2026-07-24

Dha 3.2 introduces a complete honest-practice loop: riyaz days, XP and levels; guided practice progression; padhant timing; private friends-and-family challenges; Story-sized first-win cards; saved-take playback; reminders; and an offline on-device tabla coach. The new Lifetime option joins Monthly and Yearly access. We also fixed tab switching for iOS 26 and updated every support and privacy surface. Bol recognition remains deliberately off until real-phone calibration is complete—Dha grades timing and sam only when the evidence is clear, and abstains when it is not.

### 3.1.0 — 2026-07-14

Dha 3.1 expands from iPhone to iPad and makes the path from accompaniment to guided practice clearer.

• Explore 28 bundled taal cycles with tanpura, lehera, tempo, tuning and a clearer taal clock.
• Work through 41 guided lessons with goals, common-error cues and explicit teacher or self-review checkpoints.
• Choose Roman or Devanagari bol notation.
• Try experimental timing, sam and relative-spacing checks. Silent, noisy, clipped or incomplete takes abstain instead of producing a score.
• Keep accompaniment, AUv3, MIDI, five Foundations lessons and earned history available without Pro.
• Dha Pro adds the complete guided path, unlimited experimental checks, trends, saved-take sharing, composer and live Coach drills.
• Audio stays on your device unless you choose to share a saved take. Live Coach sends bounded metrics only after disclosure and consent.
• Improved purchase, restore, pending, cancellation and subscription-management states.
• Improved Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, non-color result cues, adaptive layouts and migration from 3.0.1.

### 3.0.1 — 2026-07-02

This update makes Dha Pro clearer and more honest:

• A clearer way to unlock the full riyaz path — every graded drill, live bol + timing grading, your AI coach and history — with your real price and free-trial terms shown right on the button.
• Finish a drill and Dha now points you straight to the next step on your path.
• Locked drills show a clear PRO tag, and Pro members get a Manage Subscription option.
• Your riyaz history and AI coach now show real sam-precision and tempo trends from your own sessions.
• The accompaniment engine, Ableton Link, MIDI and AUv3 stay free — always.
• Polish and stability across the tabla, taal library and practice.

### 3.0.0 — 2026-06-16

Rebuilt as Soloist Tabla with a two-drum bol map, taal-cycle grid, traditional riyaz curriculum, on-device timing plus bol clarity grading, and PlaySoloist legal/support surfaces.
