Japa & Mala Counter
Count Japa, Jaap, or mantra repetitions with a private, local-first mala counter. Track beads, completed malas, goals, session history, and continue offline after the first successful visit.
How it works
A Japa counter records one deliberate Japa, Jaap, or mantra repetition at a time. It shows the current bead, completed malas, and total repetitions without choosing a phrase or practice for you.

Mala size, the next tap, and session goals
The default mala size is 108; choose 54, 27, or a custom size before counting. At the final bead the completed state stays visible. The next deliberate tap starts a new mala at 1 while keeping the completed total.
Goals count completed malas and never stop counting. Finish a session to save its duration, size, progress, and total. Undo or Decrement can correct an accidental repetition, including one that completed a mala.
What happens on the next tap after a mala is complete?
After a mala is complete, the completed state stays visible until your next deliberate count. That next count starts the next mala at 1 while keeping the completed-mala total.
Why can’t I change the mala size after I start counting?
Mala size is locked once the session has repetitions or a completed mala so the existing totals remain meaningful. Finish or reset the session before choosing 108, 54, 27, or a custom size from 1 to 9999.
How do I correct an accidental repetition?
Use −1 to remove one repetition, or Undo to reverse the most recent operation. If the mistake completed a mala, the correction also reverses that completion.
What happens after I reach my mala goal?
The status reports Goal reached when completed malas meet the goal, but counting continues; the tool does not stop or reset automatically.
