Thirumurai
Read full descriptionHide full description
Thirumurai contains all the popular Thevarams that are sung at home. You can sit together with family and friends and sing these songs that were sung by the Nayanmars thousands of years ago. You can quickly search for the songs in Tamil or Latin scripts and follow along with the others. Thirumurais are best read and sung in the Tamil script to enjoy not just the meaning but also the unique sounds in the language. However, for those who are not familiar with the script, the app provides three modes of transliteration: 'Academic', an accurate one character to one character mapping, 'Moderate' that fairly retains the accuracy while allowing you to read the text without difficulty and 'Colloquial' which only focuses on ease of reading without attention to accuracy. You can choose the scheme that best fits you in the settings. All songs include the names and pictures of the saints who wrote them. Touch on thei picture in the song page to get some information about them. Enjoy Thirumurai and let us know what we can do to keep improving this app!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Thirumurai at none against MANGAYAR MALAR's 10. Thirumurai also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 4 months). MANGAYAR MALAR's advantage is iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
