I can’t open the App!

I’ve used the free Luach for years with no problems or issues and now it’s a charge to use it I’m unable to open it. Very disappointing.

Best Hebrew / Civil Luach

This is a great Luach, with many great features, easy to use. But Latest Sh’Ma can’t be set to Magen Avraham for some reason. It’s default to GR”O!

Love the App, but..........

Your candle lighting times are off in many places. I was nearly Mechalel Shabbos 2 weeks ago while in Rancho Mirage, CA. Your times do not reflect Shkiya Nirees as apposed to Shkiya Amitis. Mountains make a difference! This week in Minneapolis you are off by 1/2 hour. Please make some immediate changes before you cause Chilul Shabbos which I know is certainly not your intention.
I had your LUACH with my old Treo and got it again when you came out with the Apple App. Thanks for the good work.

Calendar does not work with the main calendar

I bought it track my father’s Yahrzeit. It will not communicate with the main calendar or setup as an independent alert. Waste of money!
