Bad app

Wrong english & Sanskrit names for poses. App crashes often.

Some answers are wrong, still pretty great

This would be awesome if all of the questions/answers were correct. The following have consistently showed up for me:

1. Dhanurasana labeled as Setu Bandha Sarvangasana

2. Also labeled wrong on the English question.

3. Two blank questions (no pictures)

4. Utthita Trikonasana is listed twice on one question, but only one of them counts as a correct answer

The rest of the app is pretty great, so if you know this going in, itโ€™s still kind of worth it. Hope they fix this though.

Some issues make the app pointless.

I would enjoy this app more if it didn't have so many issues. If I'm given a "quiz" , which is all this app is, I want to be able to get an accurate score, and that's not really applicable with this app. Several times I've gotten a picture of dhanurasana and it will say it's something else... one time bridge pose, and one time cobra pose. The worst was when dhanurasana was an option and it said it was wrong. That's annoying. Then another time there was no picture at all, just answers.
This would be a fun little app if the developer would make sure the picture matched the correct answer every time.
But it's definitely misleading for people that don't know better and frustrating for those of us that do.

Helpful, but needs work

I've enjoyed practicing on this App. My major issue is the yoga image is way too small and sometimes difficult to see. Plenty of room to enlarge so seems like an easy fix. Also, on occasion, no image appears but the answers do. A few poses oddly named, but regional variations may account for this.

Not helpful

Very unusual poses and lots of missing pictures. You have to skip test questions because the picture (question) is missing, so there's no way of answering correctly. This app is a waste of a dollar.

Wretched

This app is completely incorrect. It gives the wrong pose names for poses given. It is going to teach people that upward bow pose I'd bridge and extended side angle is triangle. Boo.

Oooooohm

This app definitely helped me master the pose names in Sanskrit and English! Thanks!

Great App

I really like this latest update!

Going great

Would give it 5 stars but I can't get it to let me unlock the advanced Sanskrit poses. Happy to pay. Love the structure!!!

super helpful app!

This app is great. Definitely helped me learn the pose names in Indian. I think Iโ€™ve got the basic poses, now itโ€™s time to tackle the advanced poses. Wish me luck!

Inaccuracies

I like this app but not the inaccuracies. Shalabhasana is labeled as Navasana incorrectly, and Utthita Parsvakonasana is being called uttita trikonasana. It is confusing and teaching incorrect info. Trikona does mean triangle is sanskrit, but the correct name of the pose is Utthita Trikonasana, and as I said above this name has been given to the wrong pose on this quiz.
Otherwise it would be a great app and quiz. I also wish there were more poses included.

Great yoga app!

Was looking for a simple app to help me learn the correct names of yoga poses, and this app worked perfectly!

False advertisement

It's a joke! Could be a good app however $.99 and after you purchased and downloaded the app they ask for additional $.99 for English Version !!!! Does not force the money are you space in your phone.

Ok

I wanted more poses. I thought that they would give you more than just the same 25 to 30 every time

Best app for learning poses names

The hardest part in training has been learning the Sanskrit names...this app has made it easy... Wish the developer made same app for general yoga terms

Would be great..

If I could make it through one quiz without the app crashing.

not bad!! :)

simple and straight forward
