Common questions
How do I count?
Tap anywhere on the mālā. You can also press either volume key, or press the play button to count automatically at the pace shown above it.
The volume keys don't count.
Open Settings (the ⋮ button) and turn on "Count on volume keys." They only count while Nitya is open or the screen is locked with Nitya in front. When you switch to another app, the keys go back to controlling volume.
Can I count with the screen locked?
Yes. Start Nitya, lock the phone and press a volume key for each bead. Turn on Bead sound or Haptics to feel each count.
How do I change the mantra or script?
Tap the mantra name at the top to choose another one or add your own. Change the script (Devanāgarī, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bengali, Gujarati or Roman) in Settings.
Can I count something other than 108?
Yes. In Settings, choose 27, 54, 108, 216 or 1008 beads per round.
I counted a bead by mistake.
Press Undo. To start the round again, use "Reset current round" in Settings.
How is my streak calculated?
Your streak is the number of days in a row on which you finished at least one full round. It stays unbroken until the end of today, so it doesn't reset in the morning before you have practised.
Will I lose my history if I change phones?
Nitya keeps everything on your phone. It moves to a new iPhone when you restore from an iCloud or computer backup. Deleting the app deletes its history.
Does Nitya need an account or internet?
No. There is no sign-in and the app works fully offline. See the Privacy Policy.
