Too many bugs

Krishnamacharyaโ€™s teaching are such a valuable resource, it is a shame that the app is so full of bugs that it is virtually unusable. Developers please resolve the numerous bugs. Repeat mode takes us to a haphazardly spliced up audio, and no repeat mode is available in sutra by sutra view.

keeps dropping words randomly

It is a well thought out app but it has a major flaw in the fact that during recitation words are dropped randomly thus creating a very jarring effect and making the purpose of the app futile ie help to learn chanting
If this major flaw is corrected it would indeed be a great app

Very Helpful App

I find this to be very useful. A suggestion for updating: make it so that the bookmarked sutras can play one after the other, sequentially. In my current version there is just a "play all" function.
In any regard I am enjoying it!

Needs Update

Adding to my review, the text in my version is now garbled- all the letter with Sanskrit diacritics are now all capitals. Difficult to read unless you know what the word is already. Still excellent chanting by Mekhala Desikachar. Good to have both classical and simplified. A few changes would make it a more effective tool. Currently you cannot pause and go back part way to hear a certain section - important if there is one section of a sutra that's tough for you and needs repetition. Also the longer I use the app the more pauses and skips there are-this can throw you off if you're just learning. Overall accuracy check of the app needed by developers- for example, I've found when you try to replay 1.26 simplified the app plays beginning chap 2.

Some bug issue with text

Recently the roman transliteration is not displaying correctly. Pronunciation and intonation marks do not show and are replaced by capitalisation and inverted commas

Learning to chant the Sutras

Allowing the user to repeat any Sutra as many times as it takes is essential to learning it.
This app is wonderful. The chanting is beautiful, and is perfectly formatted if one merely wants to listen to the Sutras. But one who wants to learn to chant the Sutras can't advance or replay individual Sutras without advancing or replaying the entire chapter. Please look into modifying this. It would take this app from wonderful to above and beyond.
Many thanks.

Very choppy. Playbacks skips and has lag time...very distracting. I tried reloading but now it is just worse.

Love the all

Really enjoying this app!!! Love learning pronunciation and enjoy the interpretation as well.

Very helpful for study. I'm really enjoying this app.

Perfect Patanjali

This app delivers all that the description promises. Once I figured out how to navigate it (quite easy) I'm finding this an excellent way to study Patanjali's sutras. Particularly being able to listen to the chants.

Very satisfied

Repeat feature is absent company won't respond to emails outrageous considering relative cost is ap

Useful Yoga Sutra App

Very good translation, but the text cannot be enlarged. Wear your glasses :) OM
Beautiful and accurate recitations.

Great app

When out and about I have found this app to be very helpful as a quick reference and guide to pronouncing the sutras. Very friendly.

Very good app .... Could be improved

I downloaded all the Patangali Yog Sutra apps that were available. I wish I can pull the best features from all those to make the best app. This one has the best recital of sutras. The user interface where the devnagari text is shown could be better and readable. Also it will be good if the sutra essence could fit on the same screen. And the most desirable feature would be to play the sutra as soon as I forward to the next sutra. Now I have to forward and play to listen the sutra. Still I am enjoying this app just for the recital of the sutras.

Great App

Great App to learn and understand the meaning of PYS. It would be even better if you could place the selected sutra into the favorite folder and from there be able to play only those selected few AND have the option to play them in a loop.

Like this app

I enjoy this app. It is a good tool for learning. I use it frequently when I am trying to memorize a sutra and it's meaning.

Loved the App until yesterday

Yesterday it was updated, since then it is not working correctly anymore : stuttering, lagging, leaving out .... does not make it easy to learn chanting the sutra and it is very interrupting if you want to chant along with Mekhala.
So, PLEASE repair that, SWATHI Software!!!!

Love the changing a

Very useful with both the chanting and the explanation. I am studying the Spanish version, so having the English one is really helpful too. Love this apps

Yoga Sutras

What a wonderful app! I was learning the Sutras from a CD, but the repeat feature on this app makes it so much easier. Well worth the nominal fee.
