How Can We Help?

Chantika is a private mantra and japa counter for iOS. It helps you count chants quietly using tap, volume buttons, and experimental voice counting — without an account or cloud sync.

Chantika is preparing for its iOS launch on the App Store. Android is planned later. Check back on this site for the store link once it is live.

Use volume-button counting. The screen stays on while your eyes stay closed — keep the phone in your hand or pocket and press the volume-up button once per chant. It works in traffic, on trains, in crowded temples, and anywhere voice counting would be unreliable.
