Gongyo App for iPhone and Android

By Reinier HernandezPublished Updated

A simple app for daily practice

If you practice Gongyo and Daimoku, you know that the tools you use matter. A cluttered interface, distracting notifications, or unnecessary features can pull your attention away from the practice itself.

Lotus Chant was built with one goal: provide focused tools for daily practice without adding social feeds, streaks, or advertising.

What Lotus Chant includes

Full Gongyo sutra text

The Gongyo liturgy used by the app is displayed with furigana (phonetic readings above each character) and romaji (Latin alphabet transliteration), with formatting designed for readability.

Daimoku timer with bell

A dedicated chant timer that lets you set your desired duration and focus on your chanting. A bell marks the beginning and end of your session — no need to watch the clock.

Clean, distraction-free design

No social features. No streaks or badges. No ads. Lotus Chant opens directly to your practice and stays out of the way. High-contrast text, generous spacing, and a calm interface that works in both light and dark mode.

Morning and evening reminders

Gentle daily reminders help you maintain your twice-daily rhythm. They are fully optional and can be customized to your schedule.

Customizable experience

Adjust text size, choose between light and dark themes, and configure your timer settings. The app adapts to your preferences, not the other way around.

Built for the way you practice

Most apps compete for your attention. Lotus Chant protects it. The design philosophy is simple:

  • Open the app, begin your practice, close the app — That’s it.
  • Quiet by design — Your screen stays as still as your mind should be.
  • No account required — Download and start without signing up. Lotus Chant uses limited analytics, purchase, and support data as described in the Privacy Policy.

Available on iPhone and Android

Lotus Chant is free to download on both platforms and offers optional Lotus+ purchases:

Whether you are new to Nichiren Buddhist practice or have been chanting for years, Lotus Chant is designed to support your journey — simply, quietly, and without distraction.
