Not 100% the words of God.
It’s clear how people wrote things and said this is from God.منصف عباد
Excellent
This is an excellent app that contains many of the texts a person would want to read and learn.
One of the best tools is the highlight and define feature. HOWEVER, it does not always work. A Vav (and) could throw off the reading and no definition will be provided. It would be helpful if when we highlight and there is no definition, we could edit it to remove the vav or any prefix etc. so that the system would be able to define the word.Show lessagingerwithasoul

Yes, well - this simply is astonishing. An amazing collection of Jewish texts, enough for a lifetime and more, beautifully presented in a free app that is extremely easy to navigate. I don’t often use the word, but for its purposes this seems pretty near to perfect. An enormous amount of work must have gone into its preparation for which one can only feel deeply grateful. Thank you.Show lessPMW+

Don’t get me wrong this is a good app, it is helping me start my conversion and helping me get started on living a life of reading the Torah, and knowing all the daily prayers in the siddur, I wish though that there was transliterated words for everything as I am interested in it, I just don’t know how to read Hebrew yet. So if maybe those can be added in, it will help not only me but those to come looking for ways to immerse yourself in the religious aspect of Judaism.Show lessplay_box456

Hi, thank you for your suggestion! We are constantly looking for ways to improve our app and make it better for all our users. We've passed this suggestion on to our team. Please write to us at hello@sefaria.org with any additional comments or suggestions that you may have. -Team SefariaUnbelievable
This app is a pure, no-foolin’ miracle: a treasure, a wonder, a beautiful thing done by beautiful, beautiful people. The bona-fide lamed-vavniks involved in the making of it have my deepest respect and admiration for making free, to even the most clueless of us gentiles, the wisdom of the ancients. Ready access, for example, to the Onkelos targum is a source of great help, especially where the more difficult passages of the Torah (e.g. Gen 4:7) are concerned.
My only suggestion (and in my eagerness to write this I haven’t spent much time with the settings, so perhaps I’m just a fool) is that one be able to read side-by-side, e.g., the Hebrew and Aramaic (that is, the Torah on one side, targum on other).
Thanks again to the developers, programmers, linguists, compilers, and all the rest! יהי שׁם יהוה מברךShow lessΛάκων

Hi, we're so glad to hear you're enjoying the app! We are working on the ability to view Hebrew and Aramaic texts side by side. Please write to us at hello@sefaria.org with any additional comments or suggestions that you may have. -Team SefariaMy Sefaria App Hasn’t Worked In A Month
My Sefaria app hasn’t worked in about a month and it’s making me very unhappy. This is one of my main sources of Torah when on the go and it hasn’t been working in a long while. It just shows the blue Sefaria opening screen and never anything else. It’s been stuck like that for a while now and I really need it to come back as I am chronically ill and mentally ill and Torah is one of the only thing that helps. Of course I have a paper version (JPS Tanakh) but I admittedly don’t bring it everywhere with me so I would be extremely grateful if this could be resolved. I have updated it countless times, restarted my phone, pretty much everything. Please help.Show lessgaycrepes

Hi - Sorry for the inconvenience. We recommend that you uninstall and reinstall the app. This should fix the problem but if not, please email us at hello@sefaria.org and we'll look into it further. - Team SefariaWonderful app with one complaint
I don’t want to sound ungrateful, because I am grateful for the wonderful app; but could you please add English translation to the entirety of texts outside the Tanakh. It’s really disappointing when you read the first few chapters only to discover that the rest of a text isn’t translated. I wish my Hebrew were better, and I’m working on it, but I don’t think I’ll be able to read Hebrew that well anytime soon…
Et me know if I’m wrong and need to reinstall the app.Show lessLionDog963

Hi - We are so glad that you are enjoying the app! We are always striving to add translations to Hebrew texts in the library. We also encourage Sefaria learners to add translations to the Sefaria Community Translation. You can update the offline library in "settings" to make sure that you have the newest texts. - Team Sefaria
