What a great app! Easy to use, functional, perfect for what I need it for, daily study! And the new update for iOS 11 is more streamlined than ever! Keep up the great work

Will not work on future version of IOS

Please update as this version will not work on future versions of iOS

Restore purchase

Got the app on iPad and paid to upgrade to English, however now I'm on an iPod, there's no way to restore the purchase. Please sort it out. I shouldn't have to pay again considering I've already paid.

Months later and still no update? Ganuvim.

Great app

Great app, simple to navigate, and great customer service.

English cost extra? What?

I found this misleading in that I paid $14.99 for what I thought was both Hebrew with English translation. Turns out you have to pay an extra $9.99 for the English translation! It's cheaper to buy the physical paper book!

Response from developer

Our description explains this. We do this to keep the cost of the app down and enable people to pay for what they want. The money for this english purchase goes to the Rabbi who wrote the translation.

Great app

Enjoy this very much. Only suggestion would be an inter or linear option for English/Hebrew

Disappointed/misleading

On the $14.99 app description it shows English then once you purchase the app you need to pay another $9.99 for English. Very misleading!!!

English Dissapeared!!!

I loverr this app, but my English translation (which I paid $10 for) dissapeared. Please fix

Great thing

Great opportunity to get a Halacha a day.

Felt ripped off

Scrolled down to see the preview which shows English translation. After buying the app, guess what, English is another 10 bucks.
Don't show it if it's not included!

English gone

Please help. Paid for whole program.

Where did my upgrade go?

First off: love it! The English translation is suitable.

Second: My upgrade to English is gone. My phone was backed up numerous times before I did a restore. Imagine my surprise to seeing the Upgrade to English button.

Help.

Shabbat Shalom!

Expensive

It's a good app, but I think RustyBrick can do better.
Just to compare, look at Davka's Tanach. That app is $2 and has the entire Tanach with English. The English is presented side-by-side with the Hebrew in a great presentation. Here, the app costs $25 with English that's just thrown in after the Hebrew text. I bought it knowing what I was getting, but I still feel ripped off.

Disappointed

The way it shows the app. And for the price you would think that it would include English as part of it or a cheap upgrade not another $10.00 other then that the app is fine

Great App

This is a great resource for learning Torah. It would be very nice if in there next update they include the Kitzur Shulchan Aruch YOMI daily schedule as a feature.

Exceptional resource

Barry kicks it up a notch with yet another must-have Jewish app - I am a huge fan of Rusty Brick apps and this lives up to my high standards. :)

Please update the icon

The app is amazing. Please update the icon though. It would be great if it said Kitzur Shulchan Aruch in hebrew. I think that most ppl purchasing this kind of app would prefer it say the title in hebrew on the icon. Thank you and keep up the excellent work.

OMG JUST WHAT I WANTED!!!

I was in shiur today. We were learning kitzur. My Rebbi asked me why I didn't have a kitzur opened in front of me. I replied bc I can't read hebrew. He's like you can go upstairs and get a English translated one. I'm like that's to much of a hassle. So I pull out my iPhone download this app and get the english update. I was fallowing along and I must say the English I so amazing it was just how my Rebbi translated it. This app is a lil pricey but it was totally worth it bc if u think about it to get this set in book form it would be so much more. A great app recommended to all.

Can't believe this app - Great

This has more than I could possibly have hoped for in the Kitzur. This is amazing on the iPad. Another fabulous app from Rusty Brick. They never disappoint. The Hebrew with the English underneath each entry makes it veer usable. The one thing missing that I really need is an English search. Please put it on the todo list.

Great job
