darnret

Being a Gentile grafted into the Olive tree of Israel and one who keeps all the Covenants with the Israel of HaShem I find this app most knowledgeable and refreshing. The Torah Parashah portions along with the Haftarah portions come with commentary from Rick Spurlock of bereansonline.org. If you yearn for the Truth you have found it with this app.

Caveat emptor: Christian agenda

It's hard to give a star rating: 5 stars for brilliantly executed or 0 stars for being a deceptive Trojan Horse. Beautifully designed and fully functional but contains a commentary by "messianic Jews" on the weekly Torah portion. Too bad: while to be fair, the Christian commentary from bereansonline.org in no way affects the functionality of the app, most Jews would not be comfortable with this. Normally I don't know (or care) if a developer of an app is Christian, Muslim or atheist but a Hebrew calendar app should not contain Christian commentary (without at least a disclaimer).
For truth in advertising I would suggest to the developer please put a small cross on this version and release a parallel Jewish (paid) version, if you like. I promise I'll buy it.

Response from developer

Commentary can be permanently turned off. The displayed biblical text, sidra order, and zmanim are faithful to traditional Judaism.
