Changing practice starts a new count.

Recitations per round

Oṃ namaḥ śivāya

Opens a preview of this practice, with an option to add it in Japa 1.6 or later. The words and round size transfer; your browser count does not. If you install the app, return here and open the link again.

Total: 0 recitations

With the dial focused: Space, Enter or ↑ to count; ↓ to undo.

Your count stays in this tab and resets on reload. Nothing is saved or sent.

Keep practising in the Japa app.

Your mantra, in your words
Choose from the collection or save your own mantra. Keep its full text beside the counter, in the script you use.
A mala that suits your practice
Choose 27, 54, 108 or a custom number of beads. Set the number of rounds you want, with an optional bell at each round.
A quiet record of returning
See today’s count and the last seven days for free. Existing users keep their previous free allowance. A daily reminder is optional, and missing a day never erases your history.

Free to count with, for good.

Unlimited counting, the built-in collection, Apple Watch, and up to three saved practices are free, along with the last seven days of your history. One optional Japa Lifetime purchase — US$6.99 on the US store, priced for the region elsewhere — adds unlimited saved practices, your whole history, observance programmes, custom breathing rhythms and private iCloud sync. Never a subscription.

Your words stay on your devices, and in your private iCloud if you choose to sync. No account, no ads, no analytics.

Before you begin

Can I count more than 108 repetitions?

Yes. After a round is complete, tap again to begin the next. The browser counter keeps your session total. In the app, you can also set a daily goal in rounds.

Can I use my own mantra?

In the Japa app, yes. Save your own text exactly as you write it, or choose a practice from the built-in collection. This browser counter offers three selected practices.

Begin with one round.
