Sati Player is a serene, purpose-built media companion for listening to Dhamma talks, chanting recitations, and Pali suttas directly from your own audio and video collection.
Designed with the mindful aesthetics of fluid glass, Sati Player eliminates algorithmic noise, streaming subscriptions, and intrusive notifications. Carry your personal monastery library wherever your practice leads you.
YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR FILES
• Link folders from iCloud Drive or "On My iPhone" — batch-import nested monastery archives in a single tap
• In-place playback with zero storage duplication; your physical files stay untouched
• Works completely offline: one-tap "Make Available Offline" ensures seamless listening during silent meditation retreats and travels
SMART MONASTERY TITLE CLEANER
• Messy archive filenames like "[Wat_Pah_Nanachat] 1988_03_Ajahn_Chah_Talk_01.mp3" are automatically parsed into serene, structured titles
• Automatically detects teacher honorifics (Ajahn, Sayadaw, Bhante), monastery names, track numbers, release years, and recording dates
• Interactive Segment Mapper and Talk Info editor let you adjust speaker, monastery, album, and category non-destructively
BUILT FOR CHANTING & SUTTA STUDY
• Single-tap "Repeat Phrase" (A–B) loop pill with tactile glass bead handles for mastering pronunciation, cadence, and Pali memorization
• Pitch-preserved speed controls (0.75x, 0.9x, 1.0x, 1.1x, 1.25x, 1.5x) to study fast discourses or slow down intricate chanting
• Queue-aware skip intervals (10s / 30s) and track skipping
FULL DISCOURSE TITLES VIA AUTO-SCROLL MARQUEE
• Never struggle with truncated titles. In both Fullscreen and Mini Player, long Pali sutta names and discourse titles smoothly auto-scroll horizontally across the screen, ensuring every word is legible
