Hopefully someone at artscroll app support will see this ### 2/5 — Crashes constantly *2025-03-19, version 8.61.7* App crashes constantly. Doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — Awful, doesn’t work, unable to get a refund *2023-07-31, version 8.61.6* Beware, this app is awful. It doesn’t work. I tried to get a refund and it says not eligible for refund. Complete waste of money. ### 1/5 — Stuck on loading and stopped working *2023-07-19* This app used to be great and worked perfectly. But after the latest update it got stuck on loading and the app was unusable. I redownloaded and now it’s even worse. It’s a shame because I used to love this app ### 1/5 — Something has gone seriously wrong *2023-07-05, version 8.61.5* This formerly amazing app now has a serious bug which makes it almost useless. It does 2 sets of “downloading” after being opened, which, even on a fast internet link, takes at least a minute to perform, and which freezes out the Siddur from being used. ### 5/5 — Works great *2023-07-03* I don’t know what everyone else is going on about, this Siddur is easy to navigate and use and it works just as intended. ### 2/5 — Used to be great *2023-07-03* Now it’s almost impossible to find anything. The search doesn’t work and the app crashes every time I try to use the table of contents. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t load *2023-06-22* When launched, the app says “translation loading” for several minutes but never loads. It is unusable. I hope it gets fixed. ### 1/5 — Used to be great app - no longer works! *2023-06-21, version 7.0.6* The app no longer works on current iPhone OS. It needs updating urgently. The app doesn’t doesn’t download its when you run it on the phone and simply hangs in the download mode once you open the app. ### 4/5 — Tachanun *2023-06-14, version 7.0.6* Please insert tachanun on a weekday shacharit and mincha. App goes from chazarat hashatz to kaddish. ## Frequently asked questions about ArtScroll Smart Siddur סדור ### What does the ArtScroll Smart Siddur app do?
