### 3/5 — Issue with “READ”

*2026-08-03*

Even if we mark it as READ at the bottom, it still marks it UNRead - thinking it might be some kind of bug. I’m not saying this is happening for all, but it’s often happening. Moreover, when we manually Mark it READ which was already read but left unmarked, then at the bottom it does shows that ‘Read it 2 times’, meaning it does know that I already read that Swamini Vaat, but left it to be marked as Read. Same is happening in Vachnamrut App too.

### 5/5 — Cross device access unavailable

*2025-01-30*

Great book wrote by Axradhipati Gunatitswami in app format. Highly spiritual content in small device.
Bookmarks and favourites can't access across device like iPhone to iPad bcz lacks account details integration.

### 5/5 — Read Function not working properly

*2024-12-16*

Jai Swaminarayan 🙏

The read button stops working after some time (may be after 4-5 minutes). Have to close the app and restart it to get it working.

### 5/5 — App freezes

*2024-07-08*

🙏🏼

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2024-04-16*

Crashes after a few Vato. Especially audio. After every other Swāmi ni vaat audio, the app crashes and have to restart. Buggy and clunky in general.

### 4/5 — Req.addition of more prakran

*2023-12-13*

Old swamini vato app contains more prakran and this 1 has few, please update more

### 1/5 — Down lodging app

*2023-08-21*

Hi why  not download

### 5/5 — Swami Cato

*2022-09-07*

Simple to understand but it is down to us to digest the meanings and morals.

### 5/5 — Excellent app but it freezes

*2022-09-02*

It freezes after reading a few vato and have to restart app then it works for few minutes then freezes again. Need to fix . Otherwise its an excellent app.

### 5/5 — Great app but crashes

*2022-08-03*

The app is great but it gets stuck after reading for some time. Please fix this bug.
