### 5/5 — 3.0 update

*2026-06-11, version 3.0.1*

New font update is great. Makes it more readable

### 5/5 — Hate update

*2026-06-01, version 3.0*

I have been using Kehati for a long time and love the app. The update has a really poor and hard to use interface. This update has made my experience very unpleasant. Please revert.

Update:
Gotten used to some things and the new update definitely improved on the reading availing. However, user interface is not as easy and there Chazara part is a good idea but no way to reset if misclick. In addition, no longer options for corrections.

### 5/5 — Mishna direction

*2026-03-25, version 3.0*

Love the app. Extremely useful, 
Dear app creator; I noticed a change a few days ago that the direction of going from one mishna to the next is from left to right , used to be from right to left , can I request to please return it to the original way of right to left 

Thank you again for the amazing app!

Tizkeh lemitzvos!

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2025-09-29, version 2.3*

This is exactly what I was looking for. Mishnayos kehati. With English!

### 3/5 — Indispensable, but room for improvement.

*2025-07-07, version 2.3*

I have been using this app every day for many years, and I could not imagine life without it. However, there are several issues with the customer interface that could use improvement that I hope the developers will address.

One problem is the constant glitches in navigation. Sometimes I open up and find just a blank screen. Or,I can select a saved location, but it will take me somewhere else entirely.
The buttons that are supposed to move forward or backward to the beginning of a perek often miss their mark. The dots at the bottom of the page that show how many mishnayos have passed in the perek and how many remain are a good idea. Except when they get it wrong.

The app has had issues with font size since the very beginning. In May of 2025 they attempted a fix that actually made it worse, but they corrected that. Still, it seems that the size of the English font is out of sync with the size of the Hebrew font. It takes three screens of English to translate two screens of Hebrew. In an ordinary translated siddur, which is very comfortable to use, it’s a one to one ratio. The button that adjusts font size only works in one direction. So you have to cycle all the way to the largest font before you can return to a smaller font, sort of like a shabbos elevator.

The print version of Kahati has many illustrations that are key to understanding the text. The app has never figured out a way to incorporate them.

Lastly, the app does not respond to rotation of an iPhone or an iPad. So I can only read the Mishna holding my device in an upright, portrait position, but I cannot place my device down in a sideways landscape position and read it like that.

Kehati is the most significant contribution to the learning of the Mishnah in more than a century, and I am so grateful that the publishers and the developers made this available on portable electronic devices. overall, this app is indispensable. But there is still plenty of room for improvement.

### 5/5 — Updated Version is Great

*2025-06-26, version 2.3*

The Kehati app has always been very helpful for both my learning and review.  I use it as a part of my Daf Yomi learning to help remember as much of Shas as possible, as well as key in on the most important material.
A great help for learning Mishnayos, Gemara, and improving one’s skills.

### 5/5 — Bold

*2025-06-24, version 2.3*

Hi, can you please bold the headings in the bartenura and kehati in the Hebrew section. It used to be bolded and it makes it so much easier to keep track and to learn from. I use this app on a daily basis and it’s so helpful and I love it! But with the recent update it’s become hard to use

### 5/5 — Great!

*2025-06-22, version 2.3*

This app is amazing. I use while exercising on my machine and all around. 
(One can now adjust the font size again. Thanks!!)

### 5/5 — Great (please fix size font)

*2025-06-09*

This app is amazing. I use while exercising on my machine. However the new update removed the font size changing option which makes it obsolete for putting on my machine. May you please fix this? Thanks for everything.

EDIT: developer reached out right away and said he’ll fix it on the next update. מי כעמך ישראל!

**Developer response:** Thanks you for learning and using the app.
As lot of people requested that,we will restore this feature on the next  release.
