Honest Review

Keep it up, people might say the app is expensive but I know the app developers are trying to make it accessible for everyone. The Truth is some can’t afford the app but hopefully in the near future this app may become cheaper or easier to access. As a 18 yr old I completely understand both the developers and Gurbani learners. But let’s both support the mission of learning from our Gurus teachings. Developers I believe you guys have employees to pay but may want to include some cheaper plans that are limited to an extent, and may want to add extra funding options to support your growth which some may contribute a bit e.g a months plan for £7.99 or a weekly plan of £2.99 (it catches attention and doesn’t seem like too much). Basically more plan options available when I saw the plan it said £30 something it threw me off so just work on that side abit. I see your guys hard work and commitment so don’t worry as God is with you. I’m really proud of you guys for even thinking of creating an app to spread our Gurus teachings.success isn’t far away if you remain truthful. Take care

Great App!!!

I have been using Simran for a little bit now and it has truly helped me deepen my understanding of gurbani. One of the features I really like is AI chat. It explains everything so beautifully and gives me the meaning and small actions I can take to apply the teachings in my real life. It would be really nice to be able to have a chat history in the app. I screenshot when I want to remember something but it would be great to have that functionality in the future. Overall, really great app!!!

Response from developer

Thank you so much for this beautiful message 🙏❤️ we're so glad the AI chat has been helping you connect with gurbani in a real way. Chat history is a great idea, we've shared it with our dev team so they can look into adding it. Grateful to have you with us on this journey. Waheguru 💙

AI SOMETIMES CRASHES

The Simran AI is pretty good and answers questions nicely. However, sometimes when the question is too long, it crashes, but most of the time works well. Nevertheless, I would urge the team to expand the Simran AI to encompass more questions and deliberations like from Sikh authors and Sikh teachers like by Bhai Maskeen Singh ji.

Response from developer

Thank you for the kind words and for flagging the crash with longer questions 🙏 we've shared that with our dev team so they can look into it. Love the idea of bringing in more from Sikh scholars like Bhai Maskeen Singh ji, we'll pass that along too. Grateful for your support!

Paid

You need subscriptions for use

Response from developer

We hear you 🙏 our hope is for Simran to be free for everyone one day, but right now the membership is what lets us pay the artists and team behind it fairly, without ads or selling your data. There's a 7 day free trial and a full refund if it's not for you. Thank you for sharing.

Too many glitches

It does not update the daily saying and options when i opts for it . It’s more of a static version . Presently not a good option to buy

Response from developer

So sorry for the trouble, that's not how Simran should work 🙏 we've shared this bug with our dev team so they can dig into the daily update issue. Thank you for your patience as we keep improving it, we really appreciate you sticking with us.

Subscription

Honestly, the app is very well made with many features that would bring many closer to sikhi in a modern and digital way which is easily accessible. However, the subscription was a disappointment as many age groups like under 18s might not be able to access the app or people that cannot afford it. A big let down since the aim is to connect people to waheguru but I guess app creators are more interested in gathering maya.

Response from developer

Thank you for such kind words about the app, and for caring this deeply. You are truly heard on the subscription. Our honest goal is for Simran to be free one day. We are not there yet, and right now the membership is what lets us build it slowly and properly, and pay the artists, developers and people behind Simran a livable wage for real work. We will not make it 'free' by running ads or selling your spiritual data. Please try the 7-day free trial, there is a full refund if it is not for you, and a cheaper plan too. 🙏💙

Subscription…big No No

You shouldn’t put a price on helping people grow closer to Sikhi, that’s not at all what the religion’s about. Sikhi is all about learning freely and using the teachings from others goodwill to grow closer to Waheguru, it should not be made into a money making scheme.

why pay?

Not good

Missrepresnting sikhism this app should be banned.

Needs autoscroll feature

Needs autoscroll feature as audio is going please then it will be five stars. Its hard for me to scroll and keep up with my finger. Other apps have autoscroll and it highlights as it moves down. thank you

Glitchy

Can't get past intro quiz

Good Function & Good Design

This app works very well and is very intuitive. Certainly worth the premium subscription.

subscription was a let down

Unfortunately i’m not able to pay and i was looking for something long term to use to get closer to my faith and upon opening the app, it was a disappointment as there’s not even a restricted limited option. I understand the costs of running an app but even using ads would make me more interested in this app.

Amazing

Very good

Amazing app

I’ve had the app for nearly two days, all I can say is that, it’s amazing. Beautiful interface, section are laid out very clearly, it’s not buggy, the audio recording of the Hukamnama from Darbar sahib is also very clear (as some apps don’t have clear audio). The app, in my opinion, has everything a Sikh could ever need to be honest, you can do simran, do your nitnem, do even sehaj paath if you want, learn more about the rehat maryada in different categories e.g., Kirtan, lifestyle, congregational etiquette. Truly an amazing app and well worth the price. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh 🙏🏽.

Should be free completely

You guys can make the app free and run it with ads, it would be way better

Response from developer

We really hear you, and we do want Simran to be free one day, we mean that. The reason we don't run ads is simple. We refuse to fill your simran with ads or sell your spiritual data to ad networks. The membership is what lets us build slowly and pay our artists, developers, and team a fair wage. There's a 7-day free trial, a cheaper plan too, and a full refund if it isn't for you. 🙏

Vibe coded app that asks you to pay for everything

Its a simple vibe coded app that someone is looking to make money from - better to support other causes than this

Response from developer

We understand the frustration, and we're sorry it left you feeling this way. Simran is built by a small team of real artists, developers, and creators, and the membership is what lets us pay them fairly and build it slowly and properly, without ads or selling your data. Our hope is to make it free one day. If you'd like to try it, there's a 7-day free trial and a full refund if it isn't for you. 🙏
