### 4/5 — Needs updating

*2026-07-10, version 1.4.4*

Update the website

### 4/5 — Ayanamsa

*2026-06-17, version 1.4.4*

So far so good
Would be good to have Pushya Paksha Ayanamsa or True Pushya Ayanamsa.

### 3/5 — Constant ADs take up screen space

*2026-05-21*

The ads in the dainik Panchang section take up too much of the screen and cannot be dismissed.  Typical Desi mindset. 
Not about to pay for it either.  
The content is good (enough) but it would be nice to have a link to definition of the various concepts (terms).  The “theory of Hindu astrology”, if you will.  
Thanks.

### 4/5 — Limited features in iOS

*2026-05-21*

This is an excellent app. But the latest android app has double the features compared to iOS. The web feature has yogas and ashtakavarga and nice divisional charts along with Shadbala and bhava bala. They are literally not available in the iOS. You can do paid version. People will buy it, i will buy it

### 1/5 — Senseless ad machine

*2026-04-20*

The very first thing I saw on the top of screen after opening the app for the first time was an ad to download some other app. I understood the developer’s intention is to trick the people into clicking on the ads which may sometimes download a malware. I immediately uninstalled the app. 

Getting a panchang on the phone is convenience. Convenience should not be at the cost of security. 

Another thing to note is that app’s copyright is for 2017. They have not updated it since last 9 years.

### 4/5 — Language

*2026-04-03, version 1.4.4*

Need languages other than English

### 1/5 — App crashing

*2026-03-21, version 1.4.4*

When trying to open a day details by clicking on date the app is crashing on iPhone 11.

### 5/5 — Life Changing Tools

*2026-02-27, version 1.4.4*

It’s hard to imagine a life without being able to use this Drik Panchang.

### 2/5 — Iskcon panchang

*2026-02-04, version 1.4.4*

Please add Iskcon panchang option too, for that we downloaded.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-01-26*

Very good app for Hindu lunar calendar. Has many more useful features
