Sati Player
Dhamma Talks & Chanting Player
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Sati Player is a serene, purpose-built media companion for listening to Dhamma talks, chanting recitations, and Pali suttas directly from your own audio and video collection.
Designed with the mindful aesthetics of fluid glass, Sati Player eliminates algorithmic noise, streaming subscriptions, and intrusive notifications. Carry your personal monastery library wherever your practice leads you.
YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR FILES
• Link folders from iCloud Drive or "On My iPhone" — batch-import nested monastery archives in a single tap
• In-place playback with zero storage duplication; your physical files stay untouched
• Works completely offline: one-tap "Make Available Offline" ensures seamless listening during silent meditation retreats and travels
SMART MONASTERY TITLE CLEANER
• Messy archive filenames like "[Wat_Pah_Nanachat] 1988_03_Ajahn_Chah_Talk_01.mp3" are automatically parsed into serene, structured titles
• Automatically detects teacher honorifics (Ajahn, Sayadaw, Bhante), monastery names, track numbers, release years, and recording dates
• Interactive Segment Mapper and Talk Info editor let you adjust speaker, monastery, album, and category non-destructively
BUILT FOR CHANTING & SUTTA STUDY
• Single-tap "Repeat Phrase" (A–B) loop pill with tactile glass bead handles for mastering pronunciation, cadence, and Pali memorization
• Pitch-preserved speed controls (0.75x, 0.9x, 1.0x, 1.1x, 1.25x, 1.5x) to study fast discourses or slow down intricate chanting
• Queue-aware skip intervals (10s / 30s) and track skipping
FULL DISCOURSE TITLES VIA AUTO-SCROLL MARQUEE
• Never struggle with truncated titles. In both Fullscreen and Mini Player, long Pali sutta names and discourse titles smoothly auto-scroll horizontally across the screen, ensuring every word is legible
DEEP CONTEMPLATIVE LISTENING
• Sleep timer with a gentle Tibetan singing bowl chime that fades naturally into silence
• Silent Resume with Toast: Pick up right where you left off, with an unobtrusive glass pill allowing instant one-tap restart from the beginning
• Continuous background playback with full Lock Screen and Control Center scrub support
• Hardware-accelerated audio pipeline (AVFoundation) that sips battery life
VIDEO DISCOURSES & PICTURE-IN-PICTURE
• Dedicated video player for recorded Dhamma talks and monastic teachings
• Seamless Picture-in-Picture (PiP) support
• Continue Video in Background: Lock your screen and keep listening to video audio without interruptions
PRACTICE PLAYLISTS & REFLECTIONS
• Curate custom chanting routines (e.g., "Morning Parittas", "Essential Anapanasati Talks")
• Mark meaningful moments with timestamped bookmarks and contemplative reflection notes
• Portable JSON backup & restore: Your playlists, metadata edits, progress, and reflections survive app reinstalls and device upgrades
ABSOLUTE PRIVACY & ZEN BY DESIGN
• Unified Liquid Glass aesthetic with calm Light Sanctuary and Dark Sanctuary themes
• Dynamic Type and Large Text friendly typography
• Zero accounts, zero sign-in, zero advertisements, and zero analytics or tracking SDKs
• 100% on-device sandboxing — your audio files, practice notes, and history never leave your device
