3.0 update
Hate update
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.
Mishna direction
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!
Thank you
Indispensable, but room for improvement.
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.
Updated Version is Great
A great help for learning Mishnayos, Gemara, and improving one’s skills.

Unusable due to Font Size
How disappointing. It always used to be great app for learning. Hopefully this problem can fixed.
Response from developer
The font is now adjustable on the new version
The fix made it unusable
Response from developer
The font size is now adjustable again. Please try it out
Duvid
Unable to adjust font size
Thank you!!!
EDIT: The interface doesn’t seem to be as neat and clean as it used to (it might just be the new font, and the fact that the font size is no longer adjustable). Also there seems to be a bug that doesn’t allow the app to open to the most recent Mishnah.
Besides for that, it’s a wonderful app, and in fact the bold lettering in the English commentary makes it much easier to use.
Yasher koach!!
Was great but new version has bugs
No longer works with latest versions of iOS
Update May 2025: Seems to be fixed, so it can be used again.
App can use the following enhancements:
1. Bookmarks
2. Settings (font, size, bi-lingual or Hebrew only, etc.)
3. Select chapters by first letter.
4. Study plans.
Thank you!!!
Font size adjustment
The just released version removed the ability to adjust the font size which is unfortunate.
