Leave a Review Tikun Korim
Technology + Torah = Awesome!
I just started learning to read from the Torah this year (not counting my bar mitzvah many years ago) and this has been an amazing help. The technology really comes through and it makes switching back and forth between the actual Hebrew and the trope + vowels incredibly easy.
Some may balk at the price, but it is an amazing bargain n o matter how you look at it. First off, it is excellent software. Second, it is a fraction of the price you would pay for a paper tikkun. I mostly use the iPad version, but it includes an iPhone one as well, which is nice when I want to sneak in some practice when I don't have the iPad with me. It's small on the iPhone, but usable.Show lessrubinsandwich
Not true
This says the whole Torah audio is available, which is why we purchased it. Turns out that Shekalim, the one we were interested in, is not available, among many others.Falseaudio
Functional and elegant
A wonderful learning tool, whether seeing Torah- and print-text side by side (in landscape) or instant switching (in portrait) is a huge help, as is the ability to hear as well as record. I had an almost other-worldly positive experience with support that for the sake of Rusty Brick employees I hope was not typical. I had a problem with a parshah download, and sent an e-mail about it at 10:15 on a Sunday night. I had initial reply and promise to address it, literally within two minutes. By noon of the following day, the problem had been confirmed, follow-up was made with the Baal Koreh, and the repaired version was uploaded to the Apple Store. This result from a support call could mean either that they are unbelievably responsive or hardly ever get calls and can thus drop everything to deal with the random complaint. Either way, it's great for the consumer. A suggestion for a future update - provide controls for fast-forward and back and for partial repetition within an Aliyah, rather than having to play the whole thing. That would be a real help to us novices who move slowly through the text and need a lot of repetition.Show lessDono227
Another Outstanding App by Rusty Brick!
A beautiful Tikun with excellent features including convenient bookmarking, ability to record yourself for later review, and now the ability to hear any Parsha of interest read by an expert ($5/Parsha). Also has a very intuitive interface that works even better than expected.
Great study tool for a Bar Mitvah boy or anyone trying to master a Parsha or Haftora.Show lessAllforTheBoss

There is no Eidot Hamizrach alining and no ktav (lettering) for sefaradim. Because their siddur had this I thought this would to.
This is the first Rusty Brick program I have that I am disappointed with.
I hope they come out with Edot Hamizrach laining soon.R Levy
Love the new update, but kind of dissapointed.
Just downloaded the new update and could not wait to buy the in-app purchase for the audio! Until I saw that you didn't have al the parshas, and that you had to buy each separately for $4.99 each?! We paid you guys $20 dollars for an app the we could practice our laining, I bought this app thinking that audio came with it. I also noticed that you only have one nussach: askenaz. If you guys can maybe make all the parshas and haftaras into one big in-app purchase I would easily pay another $20-$30 dollars for it. What you guys are doing is great, but don't do it just for the money.
P.S. I have bought all you apps exept for Jewish cal (which I'm thinking of buying) and have not been disappointed, please don't change that.Show lessAwsomegamesonly
