Dainik

Dainik shows the Hindu lunisolar calendar the way it is actually computed — from the true positions of the Sun and Moon, for your own city's sunrise.

THE MOON, AS IT REALLY IS
A real-time moon with the astronomically correct phase and orientation —
not a stock glyph. The same engine renders it on your iPhone, your
widgets, and your Apple Watch.

THE FULL PANCHANGA
• Tithi and paksha prevailing at your local sunrise — with the exact
time each tithi, nakshatra, yoga, and karana ends
• Masa with correct adhika (intercalary) month handling
• Vikram Samvat and Shaka Samvat, with the 60-year samvatsara name
• Sunrise, sunset, and the day's nakshatra at a glance

FESTIVALS AND OBSERVANCES
Upcoming Ekadashi, Purnima, Amavasya, and major festivals — Diwali,
Holi, Janmashtami, Navratri, Makar Sankranti and more — computed from
the calendar itself, never a hardcoded list.

YOUR TRADITION, YOUR SETTINGS
• Purnimanta (North Indian) or Amanta (South & West) month reckoning
• Vikram or Shaka as your primary era
• Sanskrit, Hindi, or English — with Devanagari numerals
• 26 built-in cities or your device's location

ON YOUR WRIST
A watch app in the calm style of a classic lunar face, with
complications for your watch face and a dimmed Always-On Display mode.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Works fully offline. Your location is used on the device only — Dainik collects nothing, tracks nothing, and has no accounts.

Calculations use the Drik (true-position) method with the Lahiri ayanamsa, validated against established ephemerides across thousands of days. Regional conventions can cause a one-day difference for some observances; Dainik follows the tithi prevailing at local sunrise.
