Pros and cons of ChantBuddy - Daimoku Tracking app for iPhone and iPad
ChantBuddy - Daimoku Tracking app good for
Helps me track my daimoku everyday.
Has become my best friend to keep inline with my goal !
I love this app - it really helps to have background chanting when Im alone, and I chant for longer as a result. Slight problem after purchasing when the app kept asking me to purchase the gongyo part. After turning phone off and on again, the app worked fine. Highly recommended.
This app is amazing!!
By tracking my daimoku on the phone, I feel even more excited to accomplish all my goals! I love the daily encouragement and a lot of them is sent by e-mail to my chakubuku!
Thanks for creating this app!! Loved it!!
Great application, easy to use, and free! Much better than other ones that you have to pay for. You can save your goals, it saves the dmk youve done and counts for you!
I love this app! It helps a lot to visualize our efforts , to motivate for the daily chanting, and provides a feeling of not being alone .
I love the daily encouragements, very inspiring.
its a great app. so useful. love the daily encouragement and the gongyo voice.
Some bad moments
To do anything. The free version basically just lets you look
The second upgrade of 2,69€ is of very poor quality and most functions are still not properly working. Not advisable to buy it.
Despite I bought the two upgrade requested, the App keeps asking for the upgrade. Therefore, I have no access to audio or gongyo. Im very disappointed, as I believe this App could be very useful.
I wish I could provide better review. It would be a great app if they had any support and fix their bugs. Never respond emails, no phone number to call. I continue using app with bugs
this presents itself as a FREE app with the option to purchase more content but in reality, what is free is LESS THAN 30SECONDS worth of one chant before interruption & demand for payment. normally i like being able to test an app before buying, but dont bother with this-- theres not enough free material here to even see what you might be purchasing or how it might work. lame & useless. devs would be better off just charging from the start.
This app charges you money to use all the features.
Check out the SGI-USA app from the Soka Gakkai International. They have tracking, charts for viewing goals, a bell (in case you dont have one) and links to the gosho and worldtribune website.
