Yasher koach!
Today’s daf, Bava Basra כא, explains how the yeshiva system developed so that children without fathers should also learn Torah. I grew up without a father, and now, at the age of nearly forty, I learn Torah every day, thanks in part to the Torah App.
I learned about the App through the OU magazine. I had long been searching for an alternative to Sefaria, whose database of texts is unparalleled but whose interface and stability has serious problems. In particular, the Sefaria mobile app loses your place when the screen rotates from landscape to portrait mode and vice versa. Some of the user-generated translations are also subpar.
By contrast, the Torah App is not as fancy-looking in its interface as Sefaria, but is much more user-friendly. The engineers and developers of the Torah App understand that “form follows function” and the most important thing is that the app works. Now I use the Torah App for Shnayim Mikra v’Echad Targum, and only use Sefaria for finding a pasuk intermittently.
The Torah App needs to improve its reliability of recall for shiurim, as they sometimes to fail to load and it’s necessary to reload them. However, it’s the best Torah text app I’ve seen. Yasher koach!S.1.2.3.4
Excellent.
I am a long time user of Sefaria. This app builds upon the basic layout and enhances the text presentation adding audio shiurim from the OU and YU Torah.
Learning the parishad and Daf is taken to a new level of ease.
Bottom line is that you need to download and try it out. I would give six stars if it was availableBDavid Doc

Can you add a queue section? And maybe a favorite section?
When pressing the video link the app doesn’t recognize you listened to something vs pressing the play button.sr1ny
Great for Torah Learning
It has so many resources and shiurim to choose from! Highly recommended for the casual Torah learner or the more advanced and rigorous Torah scholar.Anna 613
Easy to make learning accessible
I love how easy it makes the ability to learn Torah literally right at the fingertips. I can learn a chapter, and then even get lectures about it at the same time. Of course I can get to the primary sources and the commentaries and try to understand in Hebrew or be able to see the English translation. Great job. Love it1Shoshana123
Great for reference and learning!
This app is great for looking up sources, links to the sources, and general learning. Very fast, intuitive linking. The different tabs make it especially useful for looking at different sforim simultaneously.Scott’s Ears
