Smaraṇa — Support

A gentle companion for chanting. Chant aloud and each word lights up as you say it.

We read every message. If you are reporting a problem, telling us the sloka and the word it stopped on helps us fix it fastest.

How do I chant?

Pick a sloka, tap Begin, and chant aloud at your own pace. Words glow as you say them. Tap Finish any time for a short review. A quiet room and a natural speaking voice work best.

The words are not lighting up.

Check that Smaraṇa has microphone permission (iOS Settings → Smaraṇa → Microphone; Android Settings → Apps → Smaraṇa → Permissions). If the screen says “We can barely hear you”, move somewhere quieter or speak a little louder. The first line of a session can take a second or two while the recognizer warms up.

It stopped on one word and will not move on.

Tap the line above or below to jump past it, or switch Pronunciation to Easy from the home screen. If a particular word stops you every time, please write to us and name it — that is the single most useful bug report we receive.

Can I change the script or the text size?

Yes. Language on the home screen switches between Devanagari, Telugu and romanized English, or two together. A−/A+ on the reading and chanting screens sets the text size, and the choice is remembered.

What is the difference between Follow and Fast Reading?

Follow shows one line at a time and waits for you — best while you are learning. Fast Reading shows several lines and keeps pace as you read ahead, for a sloka you know by heart.

Is my voice recorded or uploaded?

No. All recognition happens on your device and audio is never recorded, stored, or sent anywhere. See the privacy policy.

I found an error in a sloka.

Please tell us. Sacred text deserves to be right, and corrections from users have already changed what the app ships.
