Kumsing Manipuri Calendar 2026

Kumsing is the Meitei calendar, whole, on your iPhone. The
Manipuri almanac — in Meetei Mayek, Bengali and English — with the
calendar itself working with no signal at all.

Other apps give you a date. Kumsing gives you the living almanac.

WHY KUMSING
• Complete — the daily calendar and the readings of the printed
kumsing in one place, not a list of festival dates.
• Trustworthy — every date matches the printed hard-copy almanac,
checked day by day. Nothing is guessed or computed on your phone.
• Truly Meitei — Meetei Mayek script, Meitei numerals and local terms
throughout, with festivals dated by Meitei lunar rules years ahead.
• Free, in full — every date, festival, tatnaba day and reading, with
nothing held back and nothing to buy.

WHAT THE APP SHOWS YOU
• Every day the way the printed kumsing prints it — the lunar
day-number counted 1–30 through the month, with merged days
("30,1") and repeated days shown exactly as the hard copy does.
• A month grid with festivals, holidays and your own days on each
square, a full-year view, and full-moon, no-moon and fasting days
marked with their moons.
• Sajibu Cheiraoba, Yaoshang, Kang, Mera Houchongba, Ningol
Chakouba — every festival dated correctly, years into the future.
• Sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset for the day, marked as
Imphal time wherever in the world you happen to be reading.

THE ALMANAC, MADE EASY TO READ
• Tatnaba numit — the days to avoid, at a glance, with thasi maikei
and pokpa numitki phal.
• Rashiphal — your day read by your rashi, and the yearly chahi phal.
• Paknaba match readings, Khongchat travel readings and Phal Yengba
omens — the side pages of the printed kumsing, now searchable.
• Laijao leiba mapham, loubuk sowing and harvest days, eclipse dates.
• Classic tarot — a card for the day, spreads, and a private journal.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Plan by the Meitei calendar — make an entry that repeats on a lunar
day ("every Sajibu 10"), which ordinary calendar apps cannot do,
with reminders the evening before and the morning of.
• Read a holiday list in — photograph your office, school or club's
yearly list, or add its PDF, and Kumsing reads the dates into your
planner for you to check before anything is saved.
• Work with your iPhone calendar — bring events across into your
planner, and send a festival or a plan back to it.
• Keep your bartan in order — the Invitation vault holds every
ceremony's card, date and photographs, so nothing slips.
• Make it yours — Meetei Mayek, Bengali or Latin script; Meitei or
Arabic numerals; nineteen colour packs; larger text throughout.
• Away from Manipur, the calendar follows your own day, and every
Imphal time is labelled as Imphal so you are never caught out.

HONEST BY DESIGN
Kumsing's dates come from a curated almanac dataset cross-checked
against the printed hard copy — never computed on the fly. Where a
reading still awaits pandit review, the app says so plainly.

THE CALENDAR NEEDS NOTHING
