Lacking

I’m grateful for being able to listen to talks, and If we were in 1997, I’d say this is a great app. But in 2025 you expect apps to support playlists, favorites, follow authors, transcripts and more.

Invaluable Resource

This is one of my most used apps. The library is vast and contains dharma talks by many different teachers. It would take years to listen to all the material. The recent update adds the ability to download talks which makes the app much more useful.

An essential tool for anyone interested in understanding

Incredible Resource

I absolutely love this app. The talks and guided meditations are essential for my morning routine. My only complaint is I would like to “favorite” and “share” talks and easily find them and share them with friends.
