### 4/5 — Has almost all the pirith but screen doesnt go off after playing.

*2021-02-01*

I installed this app on my iphone to listen pirith when sleeping. It has almost all the most important recorded Pirith chantings by Rev. නාඋයනේ අරියධම්ම Thero.
One bug is that when i kept aside while the recordings are going on, the iphone screen doesnt go off when all the pirith chantings are over. The screen kept on nd my battery was dead in the morning. Please fix this bug at your earliest.
තෙරුවන් සරණයි!
