Othervwise it is of minimal use at rehearsals only, which does not serve the purpose of "buying" the app. Also, just a suggestion, if you can introduce a sound of multiple manjiras it could be put to good use in bhajans. ### 3/5 — please add scale changer *2012-03-17* please try to have a changeable scale for the sounds, to use wth other instruments the sur has to match ### 3/5 — Good *2012-03-14* I like it. Nice to have Kartals again, even if they are on my iPhone ### 3/5 — Needs improvement *2011-08-27* OK for 99 cents. The open sound needs to be clear, the closed sound needs to be more natural. There is a static-like sound at the end of both sounds. ### 3/5 — Nice start, but.. *2011-05-01* ..needs work to be ready for primetime. 1) Close sound doesn't feel natural. I'm sure this can be improved. 2) Needs a pitch changer badly! Thanks for great work so far on this and other products and keep up the good work. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — It’s useless *2026-06-24* Someone help me if there is a way to take atleast half of the money ### 1/5 — It’s useless *2024-10-11* How can I take my money back??? ### 1/5 — Mr *2023-09-22* The name Manji da player suggests this played rhythms. It doesn’t. The sound is delayed. Please make an app that plays basic taal cycles so I can practice to it. Thanks ### 1/5 — F u *2020-03-30* Stupid app no sound ### 1/5 — Not met expectations *2019-04-21* Not met my expectations: It should be playing automatically. I bought to play while singing. But to play it. I need to continuously keep tapping the screen. It should have system similar to iTablaPro ### 1/5 — Very poor *2010-10-23* Not realistic. Not worth even free. All his apps are v costly. Don't buy ### 1/5 — Review on purchase of iManjira *2010-10-03* Respected Sir, I have your iTabla Pro.Using the same ,I should say it is par excellence.But I am truly disappointed with the above.There is no demonstration as to how many styles of Talas one can learn and use them in Bhajans. In Sai Bhajans, I have observed atleast 2 distinct types.Eg 2 quick pause 1, 2quick followed by 2 quick etc .Similar to Tabla playing in iPro, ten minutes of actual demonstration and similar features could help beginners to learn and adopt.Even now you could think of a free update for guidence.How can it be used as Pocket type without any aid of amplification such as a docking station etc? Otherwise th application is not worth. Forgive me for my candid remarks. ### 1/5 — Imanjira not worth it! *2010-07-13* Disappointing Poor sound and slow Good idea not produced well ### 2/5 — Scale change feature is needed. *2020-06-29* Sir, I request you to include scale change & tempo control along with different rhythm pattern feature in this app. If you wanna make it paid app it would not be a problem for musician or musical enthusiast . ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2014-07-17* After looking at iTablaPro (which seems very full featured), I was hoping this app would be more than a two-sample player. Only four samples: open & closed for large & small. No velocity or variety switching, no loops, no tuning, Really should be a freebie. —That is, unless Prasad has plans to improve it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — iManjira *2018-10-14* Good ! Yep this is great ### 5/5 — Best dollar I’ve ever. Spent *2018-07-11* Never regret it once ### 5/5 — Karatala for Kirtans & Bhajans on the go! *2011-02-17* OM GAM GANAPATHAYE NAMAH OM NAMO NARAYAN OM NAMA SHIVAYA It is Brahma Muhurta time and i just found this nice App. ! If you are a Kirtan & Bhajan Fan or simply like to sing devotional songs and cannot use proper Karatala ither because you are on the go or because you cannot disturb you neighbours at home or in the hotel room at early hours than this App. Is for you. The sound is good and realistic and i suggest this App. to all devotes mantra singers. Alone this Instrument make a good companion to the voice. Its a little too expansive for the kind of instrument but it is unique and i am glad to have it. I should be listet again though, because when i was looking for it, it was not listed for Ipad but only for Iphone but when i wanted to buy anyway i saw that actually it is for IPad IPhone and IPod. CONGRATULATIONS ! ### 5/5 — Simple and useful! *2010-08-19* This is a nice simple app that does what it advertises. Love the sound, and I can play a pretty fast accompanying pattern with the two buttons - feels very natural to me. And I love that I can now play this app with iTanpura running in the background and combine the two sounds effortlessly! ### 5/5 — Sounds Real *2010-03-05* Exactly like the real thing. That is what one would come to expect from the master musician-developer... ### 5/5 — Sounds GREAT *2010-03-05* Simple app that does what it's meant to do - like both the small and large manjira sounds ### 5/5 — Fantastic!! *2010-03-05* Very realistic sound, extremely easy to use AND cheap ### 4/5 — Review *2010-05-03* Sound pretty good. Think about making it automatic like ilehra ### 4/5 — Very nice *2010-04-09* Very nice innovation. Very useful. The closed sound (clap) could use some work to sound a little more realistic. Also, if access to iManjira were available whole operating iTabla Pro, it would be really very nice - at least for those who have purchased both apps. Excellent app. I'd like to see more features and improvements with updates. ### 3/5 — Plz add auto play options *2022-05-03* Plz add auto play option --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
