About Panchang – Hindu Calendar
The daily Hindu panchang as a clean, quiet, single-purpose tool. Open the app and today is simply there: tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara, with precise end times. Sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset. Rahu Kaal and Abhijit Muhurat. Nothing else competing for your attention. FESTIVAL GUIDES On a festival day the app opens a screen of its own: the puja window (madhyahna for Ganesh Chaturthi, pradosha for Diwali, the Sandhi minutes on Maha Ashtami, moonrise on Karwa Chauth), what to avoid (Bhadra, the moon on Chaturthi, Rahu Kaal), the day as a timeline, and a share image for the family group. Twenty-five festivals, each in its own colour, with its own salutation. Keeping Ganpati at home? Say so, pick your visarjan custom — every option with its real date this year — and the app counts the days, with morning and evening aarti reminders set right there. Never assumed: the question is one quiet row, and "Not this year" hides it. ANY DAY Swipe left or right on the main screen for tomorrow, yesterday, next week — the same screen, any day, with its festivals and muhurtas. Tap the date to jump. Yesterday and tomorrow are free. COMPUTED, NOT DOWNLOADED Every value is calculated on your device with a professional-grade astronomical model (Sun and Moon positions to about an arcminute, Lahiri ayanamsa). The app makes no network requests — it works identically on a flight, in a village, or on a mountain. YOUR LOCATION, YOUR TIMES The app computes for your current location, or any of 10,000+ cities worldwide from its built-in database — so an Ekadashi in New Jersey lands on the correct local day, not Delhi's. TRADITION, TAKEN SERIOUSLY • Amanta and Purnimanta month conventions, one tap apart • Festival dates judged at their proper moment — Diwali at pradosha, Shivaratri at nishita, Dussehra at aparahna, Sankashti at moonrise • Named Ekadashis, Adhika months, kshaya and vriddhi tithis handled the traditional way • Navratri day by day, counted by tithi, with the Devi and colour of each day • Vikram and Shaka Samvat, ritu and ayana • Regional calendars — Tamil, Kerala, Bengali, Telugu, Jain, Sikh — all included EVERY WINDOW OF THE DAY Rahu Kaal and Abhijit free, always. The unlock adds Brahma Muhurta, Nishita, Yamaganda, Gulika, Dur Muhurtam and Bhadra, plus full Choghadiya and Hora tables, computed for your sunrise. FOR YOU, ON YOUR DEVICE Set your birth nakshatra and moon sign (both optional) and today's Tarabalam and Chandrabalam appear on the main screen. Computed locally, never sent anywhere. KEEPING A FAST On an Ekadashi, one tap puts the fast on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island — when Ekadashi ends, and the parana window on Dwadashi. IN YOUR SCRIPT English, हिन्दी, తెలుగు or தமிழ் — every tithi, nakshatra, yoga and muhurta in its proper form, with an optional Devanagari numerals setting. EVERYWHERE YOU GLANCE Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy widgets — on a festival day they carry the puja window, and through an utsava the day count. An independent Apple Watch app with complications. Ask Siri for today's tithi, Rahu Kaal, or the next Ekadashi. Optional on-device reminders, a Brahma Muhurta wake-up, and one tap to write the year's festivals into your Calendar. ONE PURCHASE, EVERYTHING The full calendar, the months ahead, the full festival guides and utsava tracking, every day by swipe, every muhurta and kaal, the Choghadiya and Hora tables, saved places and extra widget styles unlock with a single lifetime purchase. No subscription. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE No analytics, no ads, no accounts, no data collection — the app has no server to send anything to. Settings sync through your own iCloud.
