“Read in app” option doesn’t work
Response to developer response:
1. Search inside the app has issues. you don’t always know the exact words of the poem you want to search. So you search through estimation. And Google gives you the result. The app doesn’t. Ex. I searched “hazaaron daleelin aisi” on app, and it gave absurd results but the google search gave me the rekhta link to “hazaaron khwaishein aisi” as the top result.
2. The “read in app” option shouldn’t take me to app store if the app is already installed. It should take me to the poem in the app where I can save/like/bookmark it. For ex. If someone sends you an Instagram link and it opens on the web browser, clicking on the “open in app” option leads to that reel/post on Instagram, it doesn’t take me to Instagram if it is already installed. And that is how it should be. Why take me to App Store if I already have the app?

Dear Aman, thank you for your feedback. Could you please share more details about the issues you’re facing with the in-app search so we can understand and improve it? Regarding the “Read in App” option, it is designed to redirect users to the App Store, where they can access the Rekhta app. We appreciate your understanding and feedback. Team Rekhta

मेरे लिए तो यह साइट एक बहुत ही मुफीद चीज साबित हुई - एक गजरे हुए वक्त मे झांकने का झरोखा है - एक एनसाइक्लोपीडिया का काम करती है। मैं लाहौर भी कई दफ़ा गया हूँ परंतु “वह” उर्दू वहाँ भी अब कम ही सुनाई देती है। बदलते वक़्तों का तक़ाज़ा है।
आप इस साइट को अन्त तक चालू
रखिएगा।बहुतों को इससे फ़ायदा होगा।

Dear Mr. Benny Golchha, Thank you so much for your heartfelt words. It truly means a lot to us that the platform serves as a window into a cherished past and helps keep the beauty of Urdu alive. Your reflection on your father’s connection with the language is especially touching—we’re honoured to play a small role in preserving such memories. We sincerely appreciate your support. If you find value in our work, we would be grateful if you could also share it with your friends and loved ones. Team Rekhta
not made for tablets
Request Team Rekhta to consider this request.
Beyond this, Rekhta is a BIG part of life.
bring back the classic
My Request to the Developers:
1. Please bring back the Old Classic Style as the default.
2. If you want to keep the new scroll layout, please give us a "Classic Mode" toggle in the settings so we can choose the layout we prefer.
The old tab system was perfect for a serious reader. If the UI stays this chaotic, I’m afraid you will lose many long-time readers like me. Please listen to your community!

Merge Rekhta Dictionary Fully into Rekhta App
Response from developer
Dear Aadil, Thank you for your thoughtful feedback and kind words. The Rekhta app and the Rekhta Dictionary app are designed for different purposes. The Rekhta app offers basic dictionary support for quick reference, while the Rekhta Dictionary is a dedicated, much more extensive resource. Keeping them separate allows us to maintain depth and performance in the dictionary. We truly appreciate your suggestion and understanding. Team Rekhta

کیا کہیں اردو کی ایپ ہے اردو میں نہی پہلے ہر صفحہ انگریزی میں کھولو پھر کہیں کسی کونے میں جا کر اردو میں تبدیل کرو
واہ بھئی واہ
اور جب پچھلے صفحے پر واپس جائیں تو دوبارہ اردو سے انگریزی میں ہو جاتی ہے یہ ایپ
اگر آپ کو کام نہی آتا تو ریختہ کی انتظامیہ کو بتا دیں کہ میں نوارد ہوں اور نالائق تو انتہا کا ہوں مجھ سے یہ نہ ہو پائے گا تو وہ شاید پرانے ڈویلپر کی منت سماجت کر لیں اور ہماری زندگی میں دوبارہ سے سکون آ جائے
بہرحال یہ آپ انتہائی گھٹیا ہے اور اس پہلے والا لے آؤٹ کمال کا تھا آپ سے گزارش ہے کہ پہلے ایپ کو واپس لایا جائے جو کہ آپ اردو انگریزی اور ہندی میں استعمال کر سکتے تھے
