What’s new
Version 1.5.18 · Updated October 17, 2026
When someone answers a message in a circle, you can now read the answer where it was written. Replies sit under the message they belong to instead of hiding behind a count, so a conversation looks like a conversation rather than an empty chat with a number in it. Long exchanges keep their thread, and replying works the way it did. Sadhana can now tell you when something happens in a circle, instead of waiting for you to look. Turn notifications on in your profile, and mute any circle that gets noisy. Your profile is yours to fill in: a photo, and the teacher you learn from — chosen from Sadhana if they are here, or simply written down if they are not. When a recording hides its Sa, analysis now takes the shruti you tuned your tanpura to rather than guessing, so a quiet alapana is read in the key you actually sang in. Hindustani students see Bhatkhande swara names throughout — komal re, tivra Ma — spelled out in full on a printed report and kept short where an axis has no room. If a sign-in code cannot reach you by text, the app now says which e-mail address would work instead of leaving you waiting. And a fix for the rare blank screen some of you saw after an update: the app now repairs itself and reloads once, instead of staying dark until the cache expired.
