## What is Barkai?

Every brachah in your pocket — made intelligent.

Barkai is the assistant for the world’s oldest gratitude practice: meah berachot, one hundred blessings a day (Talmud, Menachot 43b).

IT KNOWS WHAT FITS NOW
Open the app and find what the moment asks: Modeh Ani on waking, the table at noon, the close of the day at night. Every blessing with clear Hebrew (nikud), transliteration and translation — ready to be said.

“I’M ABOUT TO EAT”
One tap, pick your foods, and it lays out the halachic order of your table’s blessings — with the after-blessing waiting for you.

WHAT ARE YOU LIVING?
Type what’s happening — “I’m about to eat fruit,” “I saw the sea” — or take a photo, and Barkai tells you whether there’s a blessing for this moment. The photo is recognized INSIDE your phone: the image never leaves your device.

THE SKY CALLS YOU (PREMIUM)
A storm over your city: the thunder blessing, ready. Rain with a low sun: rainbow conditions. A waxing moon: the month’s window. Powered by Apple Weather.

YOUR CHAIN
Every blessing said threads itself in: a living strand that joins the chain of the generations — three thousand years — and grows with you. Your goal starts where you can — the full norm is one hundred — and the chain NEVER breaks on Shabbat: the day of rest counts whole, and the app goes quiet with you.

ALWAYS FREE
All 100 blessings, complete — Hebrew, transliteration and translation — to read and say whenever you want. The texts are never charged for.

PREMIUM: THE LIVING APP (USD 2.99/mo or yearly at ~20% off)
The app comes alive for you: it suggests the blessing by halachic hour and Hebrew calendar, the sky calls you, your table’s seder in one tap, and your counter with your chain. No trial days: the free catalog is the trial, forever.

From the house of My Jewish Day. Rigor with warmth: real sources, zero sermons.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.3 — 2026-08-28

Jolem joins the family. In Settings, "About us", you will now find Jolem: Talmud Dream Meanings, alongside My Jewish Day, Kimá and Kolí. One tap opens it in your store.

And if something is off: Settings, "Write to us". Your message reaches us with the version and device, so we can answer without asking the obvious.

### 1.4.2 — 2026-08-28

The sky alert and what you see when you open the app now say the same thing. If a storm, wind, or first-rain notification reaches you, that berachah is waiting inside — even if you open from the icon instead of the alert.

And now you can write to us: Settings, "Write to us". Your message arrives with the version and device, so we can answer without asking the obvious.

Also: two texts that broke apart at large font sizes, and crash reporting to fix errors before they reach you.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-08-26

The sky, closer.

· Wind is now measured with real anemometers, not just the model: alerts arrive when it truly blows.
· If your phone suspends apps to save battery, Barkai tells you and helps you allow it — without that, sky alerts never arrive.
· Kiddush Levanah: we let you know when the moon is in its window and your sky is clear.
· Birkat ha-Ilanot for your hemisphere: the blessing of blossoming trees, in your season.
· Your sky archive: the moments that used to pass and vanish, plus where the sky spoke in the world this week.
· The thread of the hundred daily blessings, the chain line on each blessing, and kavanot for every moment.
· Share a sky moment with someone in your city.
· Redeem a gift code.

### 1.3.9 — 2026-08-15

The sky card now says what is actually happening. A trace of rain used to be enough for it to say “steady rain”: it now tells drizzle, steady rain and downpour apart — and if it is not raining, it does not say so.

### 1.3.8 — 2026-08-14

When the sky has something to tell you, it now actually reaches you: the app renews its link to the alerts server instead of doing it only once. If your sky alerts had gone quiet, they come back on their own.

And if you bought Premium and reinstalled, the app recognises it again on its own.
