And we promise there are many more exciting features to come – this is simply the beginning for Sikher!

Help Us!

Finally, please do help us to iron out any bugs too by reporting them at https://github.com/sikher/sikher/issues instead of emailing us and we’ll make sure they are fixed in future versions. When filing a bug report be sure to be as specific as possible and always state which device you were using when the problem occurred. Screenshots would also be useful.

To all those who gave their suggestions including Onkar and many others, I’m truly grateful. It’s made what it is.

By the grace of the Guru,

Jasdeep
