About Dharma Mala: Mantra Counter
Dharma Mala is a companion for Tibetan Buddhist (Vajrayana) practitioners.
COUNT WITHOUT EVER LOSING A COUNT
• Tap the large circle, feel each bead, a stronger pulse at every completed mala
• Count by voice (Premium): record a few samples, then just chant; the app counts each repetition, even with the screen locked. Audio is processed only on the device, never recorded or sent
• 21/27/54/108/111-bead malas, +1 mala, manual entry, undo
• Lock against accidental taps; keep the screen awake
• Every tap is saved instantly, so a crash or dead battery never loses your count
• A dedication of merit after each session
BACKFILL & PRACTICE DEBT
• Set a daily commitment (samaya) for each practice
• Forgot to log for a few days? The app asks. Choose "Practiced in full" or split a total across days
• Truly missed a day? The shortfall becomes practice debt, repaid automatically when you go beyond your commitment
• Pauses for illness or travel don't create debt
GOALS & STATS
• Targets of 100,000, 111,111 or any number, including counts accumulated before you used the app
• Projected finish date and the daily count needed to meet a deadline
• Streaks, an 18-week heatmap and a 30-day chart
• Presets: Ngöndro (refuge prostrations, Vajrasattva, mandala, guru yoga), Chenrezig, Green and White Tara, Medicine Buddha, Guru Rinpoche, Manjushri, Amitabha

Latest updates
1.7
• iPhone Duo support: unfolded, the app shows a sidebar like on iPad and opens your text right next to the counter. Folded, you get the familiar iPhone layout.
• Fold or unfold mid-session and the counter keeps your count.
• On small screens, the weekly count on the Home screen no longer wraps.
• App lock help now covers devices with Touch ID.
1.6
• Count by voice (Premium): record 3 samples, then just chant; the app counts each repetition, even with the screen locked. Audio is processed only on the device, never recorded or sent.
• While it listens, the Lock Screen shows your count and today’s progress. The counter draws a thread around the mala with each repetition.
• If the app is closed unexpectedly (battery, crash), it tells you your count was kept. Discarding a session of 108 or more asks again.
• Time zones (Calendar tab, Zoom cards): see a session’s time in New York, India, Taiwan and more at once, and copy it for your group.
• Adding a text makes it clear that only you can see it and it is never sent to any server. Adding a practice reminds you to practise only after empowerment, oral transmission or your teacher’s permission.
• New “Rate Dharma Mala” row in Settings → About.
1.4
• Now on iPad: a sidebar that stays put, and your sadhana open right beside the counter.
• Tapping X mid-count now asks: save, discard the session, or keep counting.
• “Projected finish” follows your daily commitment and shows the full date.
