Make your first sound
Open the app, tap Create at the bottom and pick a way to create, for example Mono voice. Tap Record to record your chanting, or Import audio to use a file on your phone. Trim the part you want to keep, give it a name and tap Save sound. It then appears in your playlist on the Play tab.
For Mono voice + Binaural voice, record the two parts separately: your chanting first, then a long held tone.
Binaural sound only works with stereo headphones. Keep the volume at a comfortable level.
Your subscription
Go to Settings → Subscription in the app to see the monthly and yearly plans. Both include exactly the same features. Prices are shown in the App Store.
First-time subscribers can try it free for 7 days. After the trial, the plan renews automatically at the price shown unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Family Sharing is not available.
With an active subscription you can record, create and play sounds. If your subscription ends, your recordings and sounds are kept and still listed, but you need to subscribe again to create or play them.
Restore, cancel or get a refund
On a new phone or after reinstalling the app, sign in with the Apple Account you subscribed with, then tap Restore purchases in Settings → Subscription.
To cancel, tap Manage subscription on the same screen, or open the iPhone Settings app, tap your name, then Subscriptions. Cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription.
Refunds are handled by Apple: request a refund · how to cancel a subscription
Can’t record or can’t hear anything
If you can’t record, open the iPhone Settings app, find Binaural Mantra and turn on Microphone.
If you see “This audio format is not supported”, use a WAV, MP3 or M4A file instead. Copy-protected music can’t be imported.
If you can’t hear anything, check the volume, your headphone connection and which device the sound is playing on. Playback also stops when a subscription ends.
Sync between iPhone and iPad
iCloud sync is off by default. On each device, sign in to the same Apple Account and turn on iCloud Sync in the app’s Settings. Sync needs an internet connection and enough iCloud storage.
Your recordings, finished sounds, custom looks, settings and listening progress are synced. Turning sync off only stops that device from syncing. Nothing already in iCloud or on your other devices is deleted.
Delete recordings and data
Swipe a sound left or right in your playlist to delete it. Custom looks work the same way. With iCloud sync on, deletions reach your other devices once they’re online, so let sync finish before you turn it off.
Deleting the app removes its data from that phone, but not necessarily what’s in iCloud or in your phone backups.
