## What is Ma Téfila?

Ma Téfila brings Sephardic prayer and daily Jewish study together.

Read Shacharit, Mincha, Arvit, everyday blessings and festival prayers, adapted to the calendar. Hebrew, transliteration and translations are available according to the text, with adjustable reading settings and light or dark themes.

Explore the weekly Torah portion in Hebrew with French translation, an introduction and commentary. Festival and Chol Hamoed readings are included. Discover a daily mitzvah and browse the catalogue of 613 mitzvot.

Read the 150 Psalms, follow reading plans, save favorites and join shared Tehillim chains. Chains can be private by code or open to the community, as chosen by their creator.

Convert birth dates to the Hebrew calendar, account for births after sunset and save several birthdays. See the days until the next Hebrew birthday and personalize a birthday widget with a name, icon and color.

Home Screen widgets show the daily mitzvah, birthdays, your Tehillim reading and upcoming prayer times. Tap to open the corresponding page.

Explore Jewish holidays, Shabbat preparation, days off, the Omer, Rosh Chodesh and Birkat Halevana. Calculate prayer times and the direction of Jerusalem using your location, with Israel or diaspora calendars.

Built-in texts and calculations work offline. Shared chains, the synagogue directory and content updates require Internet access. Location is used for times, the compass and nearby services when requested. Birthdays are stored on your devices.

No advertising. Sources and licenses are available in the app.
