### 1/5 — Cannot remove app stuck in my phone

*2024-03-10, version 1.16.5*

This app is not allowing me to remove it and i cannot access it
poor app no support

### 1/5 — Can no longer download

*2022-08-31, version 1.15.1*

Despite having everything updated, can no longer download. It was giving me hiccups, so I deleted with the plan to download again and it’s not able to be downloaded. :(  :(

### 2/5 — Does not work anymore!

*2024-08-15, version 1.16.5*

Worked perfectly on my Apple Watch 7. Just got a new Apple Ultra 2 watch and even though App Store says app is purchased (from before) it does not show up in Apple Watch App to use within watch face options or as app on the watch itself. Very frustrating. Help please!

### 3/5 — Needs Update

*2025-10-16, version 1.16.5*

App needs update to latest os release - no longer seems to work great app otherwise

### 4/5 — I need help!

*2023-03-30, version 1.16.4*

I installed Hebcal a month ago and was very pleased. I need the Hebrew date everyday since I’m a teacher in a Jewish school. Last week, the wrong date appeared on my watch. When I pressed the app on my watch , it reverted to the whole face description and showed the correct date. But when the IWatch face showed, it was still on the wrong date. I deleted the app from my iPhone and wanted to reinstall Hebcal and was unable to find it on my iPhone. When I go to the App Store it shows that it is purchased. How can I correct this situation? THANK YOU! Your suggestion to go through my watch to the App Store and download it that way worked!

### 4/5 — Candle Lighting?

*2022-05-20, version 1.15*

Great watch app. Add candle lighting and havdalah times for five stars.

### 5/5 — Way cool!

*2025-07-08, version 1.16.5*

Just what I needed.  Herbal interfaces with my watch faces so I know the Hebrew date and Torah portion at a glance.

### 5/5 — Works great.

*2023-02-23, version 1.16.1*

I find Hebcal very supportive. I like that I can have all my yartzeits together. However I wish they would note the night before as the night to light ON THE CALENDAR ITSELF. If I don’t look ahead or have a reminder set up I could miss the time to light my candle.

### 5/5 — Works with new OS

*2022-11-03, version 1.16*

With new update, Hebrew date was no longer showing. Now with this app downloaded I have the parsha and Hebrew date - thanks a ton!
