Turn off the automatic chanting!
This app would be great if the training was optional. Can’t figure out how to turn it off. No settings button. Got to find another app.
First time user
This is my first year to use the app. On April 8, It says 3 days until the counting of the Omer. It starts April 9, so it should say 1... So I’m starting with a question.
Never missed a day!
This app is amazing!! It reminds you to count every night and tells you when it is too late to count. There is also a checkbox for after you counted so if you don’t remember if you counted or not it tells you!!! Really recommend!
Very helpful
The only problem I had was on the last day I went to check the box, & my whole counting history was wiped.. what the what? So I don’t know why it did that, but it was quite helpful to me.
Great app, no complaints!
I had this app about 4 years ago, and I don’t remember the details of why, but I didn’t think it was worth getting again. I’m so happy I decided to get it this year! My only problem is really mine, not the apps! I have trouble remembering to count on Shabbat-Friday night, unless I am davening and notice the page it tells you to go to! Anyway, I’m happy to say that I don’t have any of the problems other people have referred to in their reviews. I’m using an old iPhone 5s. I like that you can choose which page you want to go to and when. Love the meditations, the notifications and if you haven’t counted yet, the date of the Omer count stays next to the icon. So if I am not available early when I’m notified, I will always see that when I put on the phone and then I realize I haven’t counted that day. I don’t have any of the issues that other people have reported. Sometimes it takes a few extra seconds for the app to come up but it’s just a couple of secöonds, nothing worth complaining about. G-d willing, I would get and use this app next year. I really appreciate this app, it makes counting so much easier. Free too! Thanks so much Chabad! You came through again!

Notifications does not work
It is very sporadic. I think the first week I got notifications every day, and then it stopped. And then two weeks will go by and one will pop up. They need to fix this, the app doesn’t help if you don’t have Reminders
Upset
Hey the app is extremely helpful and useful but I was very disappointed when it came to one day and I was given the wrong text to say and that did cause problems as people counted incorrectly because of that ...
Wrong Day
With all due respect, this phone app is the reason why one should always use a siddur when counting sefirat ha Omer. When I went to count, it had the next days counting with it listed as the previous days.
While I commend the idea of the app, I suggest it only be used if one is in a place where the zman is about to end for counting with a bracha and no siddurim are available.

Not working right
App suddenly stopped sending me a notification to count. Good thing my dad texted me. Happened last year too, sent a reminder for a while, then randomly stopped.
***update*** HUGE fail tonight which is 36, yet their Hebrew text reads today is thirty SEVEN days which is five weeks and TWO days of the Omer. How many people did you cause to count the Omer incorrectly?!?!?!
