Mala
A quiet digital mala.
Keep your place. Feel each count. Finish without looking. One tap advances one bead — and the count survives a phone call, a locked screen, or the rest of the day.
Available on the App Store for iOS. No verified public TestFlight invitation link is published on this page. No account, advertising, analytics, tracking, or developer-operated service. Practice information stays in the app's local storage.
The app
Five screens. That is the whole app.
Why it exists
Three things a physical mala already does well.
Count by feel
A large practice surface and restrained feedback keep attention on the repetition.
Resume naturally
An interrupted round can continue without turning practice into a productivity task.
Make it yours
Private labels, multiple mala styles, and local history support a personal ritual.
