Private japa mala counter
Keep the vow.
Trust the count.
A counter built for 40, 90, and 108 day mantra practice, with grace days, optional sign-in sync, and a record you can look back on.
This counter holds today's number on this device. Session history, optional sign-in sync, and missed-day recovery live in the app.
Counting works with no account and no sign in.33 AI voice minutes free monthly.The free tier stays free. Not a trial.Your session history stays with your practice.
You did not lose your devotion. You lost the count.
It is rarely a willpower problem. It is a record-keeping problem wearing a willpower costume. Four things end a vow, and none of them are a lack of faith.
A lost count with no way back
One wrong tap zeroes a generic counter. The number you write down after that stops feeling true, and a number you do not trust is not a record.
No rule for the morning you miss
Without a rule agreed in advance, one missed session becomes "well, I broke it anyway." The vow does not end on the day you miss. It ends on the day you decide the miss was fatal.
Nothing backing it up
A new phone, a cleared app, a bad tap. Weeks of practice gone, with no way to reconstruct what you actually did.
Nothing to show at the end
Even finishing feels uncertain when there is no record to look back on. A completed vow deserves more than a memory of having completed it.
The app keeps the record around the practice.
Start from the vow you are actually keeping
The home screen opens on the vow in progress, the day's target, and the lifetime total. No feed, no streak shaming, no notifications competing for the moment before practice.
Count by tap, or let the app listen
Tap through a mala without watching the screen, or turn on voice detection and let it count while you chant. Voice counting is metered: 33 minutes a month on the free tier, and when they run out, tap counting keeps working exactly as before.
Grace days decide the miss before it happens
Set how many missed sessions a vow can absorb, before you start. When a morning goes wrong, the rule is already there. You are returning to a plan, not negotiating with yourself at 6am.
Tools
A living shelf for the practice.
Meditation, reflection, and spiritual tools from MantraMind and clearly labeled partners. The same live collection appears in the app.
Reference
Sixty mantras, with the meaning and the pronunciation.
Every entry carries the original script, a transliteration, a plain translation, the tradition it belongs to, and how it is practiced. Descriptive, source-cited, and free to read without an account.
What this app does not do.
It does not promise an outcome. MantraMind records what you practiced and when. It makes no claim about what that practice will do for you, spiritually, psychologically, or medically. Those questions belong to you and to your tradition, not to a piece of software.
It does not teach. The directory describes mantras as they are practiced and cites where the description comes from. It is a reference, not instruction, and it is not a substitute for a teacher.
It does not require an account. Counting works offline with nothing signed in. An account exists only so your record can survive a lost phone, and it is optional.
It does not punish a missed day. There is no red streak counter and no guilt notification. Grace days exist precisely so that a missed morning is a rule being applied, not a failure being recorded.
Start the vow today.
Free to count. Free to keep counting.
