User Reviews

Users largely praise Carnatic Raga as a helpful, easy-to-use reference that makes learning ragas faster. The app is praised for its clear explanations, precise arohanam/avarohanam details, swara matching, and usefulness for both beginners and seasoned musicians. It also shines with offline accessibility and a well-received interface. However, reviews repeatedly report playback and sound problems (no sound, broken play button, missing swara audio), spelling inconsistencies in raga names, and missing features such as lessons and multiple shruti options or favorites. Stability on older devices is also a concern. Overall strong potential with notable fixes requested.
Pros
  • Easy to understand and great for learning ragas
  • Comprehensive, precise reference (arohanam/avarohanam) with swara details and exact/partial matches
  • Useful for beginners and advanced students; strong reference tool
  • Offline access; works without internet
  • Nice interface and overall quality; fast raga lookup
Cons
  • Playback and audio issues: play button sometimes not working and no swara sound
  • Raga spelling/name inconsistencies (e.g., 'Dharmavathi' vs 'Dhamavathi')
  • Missing features: lessons, multiple shruti playback, and a favorites list
  • Stability issues on older devices/OS (crashes or missing audio)

Needs some fixes. Dharmavathi is named as Dhamavathi. Please fix some of the Raga spellings. Otherwise great App

This is a great app, but something I wish it could improve on is that I could play any 16 notes in any order.
