Update - love this app so much I bought a year subscription!! But ever since then, the app doesn't open past the logo page. I have to Uninstall and reinstall EVERY SINGLE TIME. I would like to cancel my subscription and go back to the free mode please. How do I go about doing that? Also, I've tried to do it in airplane mode. I've tried it all. What is the point of the sehaj paath addition for subscribed users if I lose my saved data everytime?

Downgraded! Gurbani app has been working well for many years but last few years Gurmukhi fonts are not working well. When writing in Gurmukhi, app creates unwanted spaces. Have tried by turning off internet as sugested by editor Surinderpal Singh. Nothing changes. When accessing Hukamnamahs, app defaults to Orange color screen with some notifications but these are disfunctional. I never had any issue when I was using Android and Samsung phones. I am experiencing these idsues with Pixcel phone.

I have installed Gurbani Searcher on two different Android phones and strangely the BANI DATABASE is different in both. Laga matra is different in same Bani. For example : spelling difference in tav prasaad swayiye in both devices. Also the heading is different in both devices. Both devices are updated with latest version. Also the problem in larivaar text is still there. Laga matras are cut off in larivaar text at many places.

Please check the versions of application on each phone. If the version is different, then there might be a difference as the application is continuously evolving its database. Please install the 13.1.0 version to get most authentic DB. Both devices may not have same version, though they are at latest version for their device.

What's new

-Fixed Gurbani Youtube playback.
-Fixed the restore/import of data, which was broken since last release.
