Incomplete

Bad app waist of money

My siddur

I love the heartfelt davening and beautiful melodies
However this app is very glitchy and shuts off when i move my phone
It doesn't always respond to arrows and freezes easily
It also would be nice to have an interlinear translation
Please update the glitches i would love this more perfectly!

Incomplete app

Too bad that the app goes only through the first part of the original book :(
Learning possibilities are missed!

Please Update for iPhone X

Desperately needs update, barely usable on current iPhone.

Needs update

This app is okay and I would use it more if it was updated to work on iPhones with a notch. Also I would like to see a pause and resume button for the audio. Otherwise it is a great app for learning.

Ahavat Olam

This is one of the most heartfelt Tefilot for me. I love praying in the morning with this app. There are a few issues I have. 1. The app has a a potion of this prayer. 2. The app is missing most of the shaharit service. I would love if you would add the Akedah. I also think it would be helpful if we could have the player at each prayer instead of the top of the page. It is somewhat hard to have to go back to the top to click the prayer at the bottom. I often hit the book and that means I must remember the page I am on because there is no way to go back. It would also help if there could be “Hashem” instead of A******ny. This adds difficulties when studying to say the words properly. One may not be praying at this time.

I would also be nice if the Amidah could be set to play on auto play so that there is no interruption. I would love if you could add a second app with the Daily supplications, the full bedtime shema, and the blessing after meals and other foods.

It would also be amazing if you could make one for Shabbat but let it say Hashem so we can practice it on the weekday without violation of the Brachot.

I can’t enlarge to see it so I may pray. Or even follow while audio is on.

Please help!!! It’s perfect otherwise but I can’t enlarge it to see it.

My Siddur-Weekday

Please update to iOS 11.1.2

Great app but no audio

Please fix

Great, but can you please fix for iOS 10?

Thank you for putting out this app. It is quite helpful. However, it is not compatible with iOS 10. Can you please update?

Tried them all, this is the best!

I've been looking for a while for a siddur app with audio and English transliteration and this has it all. It's helped me immensely to learn my prayers!

Has Potential, But Many Serious Problems

The Rabbi's voice is very nice, but I have several major issues with the app. They are:
You cannot play a nigun and follow the entire prayer word for word because the nigun goes to the end, but you must turn the page to follow the prayer. When you turn the page, it stops the nigun and you must restart it.
There is no option (and there should be) to play important prayers, such as the Shema, from the beginning to the end without stopping. It is broken up in sections.
I would like to see an option to hear simply the read prayer without a nigun.
There must be a different speed versions, especially a very slow option, for beginners like me. Moreover, when the rabbi gets into the Amidah, he does it only one speed: fast.
I'd also like to have options of niguns without musical accompaniment.

Good app

This app is good for basic learning. I like the audio tracks that accompany the sections. The pronunciation is very clear and the transliteration is easy to read. My only wish is that it had the brachot for the different foods.

no audio

I have the latest version of iPad and there is no audio. The iPad is not on mute because it plays music loudly of of iTunes. Please refund or fix Thank you. I went to the place for app assistance and it appears to be a website merely for selling items Thank you

Great app! Waiting for Shabbat version

Great app which can teach me how to sing the prayer, I'm waiting for the Shabbat version, and I hope there can be more music inside

No audio

Unfortunately audio on iPhone 5 does not work. I am disappointed. The developer says that this is because a device is on mute. He is not correct. Seems like it could be a great app of this bug gets corrected.

Great app

I originally left 2/5 stars because I thought there was an issue with the app's audio. It is now working perfectly and I have changed my rating to 5 stars as I would highly recommend this to anyone learning to daven!

Excellent!

This siddur was originally developed to help young day school students learn how to daven. However, it will also be of great help to baalei teshuva, geirim or anyone previously unfamiliar with and perhaos overwhelmed by the Jewish prayer service. It contains the Hebrew text in a nice, clear format, transliterations, translation of key phrases, instruction at every step and, above all GREAT audio recording of all tefillos. This really helps you to learn nusach and the tefillos by heart. I highly recommend it to any newcomer to Judaism and davening.
