## What is Luach Or?

Luach - is the ultimate tracking tool that stays with you through the day.

I created it with the idea for every person to be able to experience the app and use it intuitively, the companion that guides you through your daily life.

Hebrew and civil dates coexist together, with the week's Torah portion, the holidays, and what work each day permits. Candle lighting, havdalah and the zmanim are computed for the city you choose.

BLESSINGS, WITH THEIR SOURCES
Blessings and prayers in pointed Hebrew, with transliteration and translation in multiple languages. When you are not sure which blessing a food takes, the app works through it with you and names the halacha behind every step making this process interactive.

TEHILLIM
All 150 psalms, the monthly and weekly cycles, and collections you make yourself. Read for someone by name -  add a Hebrew name and the stanzas of Psalm 119 that spell it are chosen for you.

REMEMBERING
Yahrzeits and personal dates recur on the Hebrew calendar and move through the civil year on their own. El Malei Rachamim, Yizkor and Kaddish, with the name already in the words.

ON YOUR HOME AND LOCK SCREEN
Widgets for the date, the coming Shabbat, the week, today's Tehillim and the blessings you use most. A ring on the lock screen counts down to candle lighting — and to havdalah once Shabbat has begun.

ALSO
A kashrut timer that keeps counting after you close the app. A compass that points to Jerusalem. Printable month sheets with various design options.

Everything works offline. Nothing is collected; what you enter stays on your phone.
