Hindu Calendar - Pujanook

Pujanook is a calm, accurate Hindu calendar: today's panchang, festival and fasting-day reminders, and the Bhagavad Gita with mantras – all calculated and stored on your phone. No ads, no subscription, no account, no data collection.

📅 TODAY'S PANCHANG
• Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana with exact end times, paksha, lunar month (Amanta or Purnimanta), Vikram Samvat and Shaka year

🎉 FESTIVALS AND FASTING DAYS

• Every Ekadashi with its name, Purnima, Amavasya, Sankashti Chaturthi, Pradosh, Masik Shivaratri and Sankranti
• Dates follow the Smarta rules used by major panchangs, computed for your own city – so they are right for Delhi, Mumbai, London or New Jersey
• Month calendar with the tithi of every day

🔔 REMINDERS YOU CONTROL
• The evening before and the morning of each festival – choose which kinds you want
• Optional alert at the exact moment Ekadashi, Purnima or Amavasya begins
• Optional daily panchang summary at sunrise
