Best Omer Counter
Best Omer counter I have ever used! I especially love all the live links you can explore for deeper dives. Thanks to Rebs David for this amazing way to engage with this important practice!
Simple and functional
I tried a few Omer apps and this was my favorite.
Pretty minimal
This app seems to be designed for more secular folks and non-Jewish people who find meaning for themselves in the Omer counting.
My Omer companion for many years now
I have happily used this app for many years of counting the omer. I have appreciated the annual updates and the links for going deeper. Thank you.
Great app!
Revised revised review: I have now discovered another nice thing about the app — the developer’s quick and helpful responses when I haven’t been able to find my way through all the goodies the app offers. Thank you!
I really love this app. My big wish is: I would love to be able to go back to the resources and ideas in the Quotes from earlier days! There is sooo much here, I wish I could figure out where earlier quotes had led!
I tried using this app in a previous version but found it too hard to use. No longer! It did honestly take me a couple of days to find all the resources in the app, but now I am looking forward each evening to a wonderful close to the day and opening to peace and spiritual awakening

Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback. We’re glad you are enjoying the app. For your big wish, this can be done for the current year, and we are working on a feature to get quotes from previous years. For now, if you want to go to an earlier date, you can use the calendar button (next to the gear, then select the date and press “set” on the bottom) to get quotes from this year’s count. If you marked that you counted, then there should be a button with the beginning of the quote that you can click. If not, then the button will only be on the count page. Click it to get to the quote. There are instructions for all of the features when you press the info button. Perhaps we’ll add a walkthrough feature for a future version.
Asking for Gaza aid
I liked you until you asked for donations for Gaza. I switched apps. But thank you for showing us who you truly support. Am Israel chai!
Nice info, poor app design
The text isn’t properly formatted to fit on the screen and changing settings of my device doesn’t adjust anything. The location setting is missing, although the app instructs you to turn it on if you want GPS timing.
Keep politics out of a Jewish prayer app
Deleting this app and will return to a siddur to track the Omer. Shame on the developer for inserting prayers for an illegal alien deportee (allegedly a gang member and wife beater) — into the app — Day 5. Clearly, the developer has no sense of decency or propriety. Disgusting!

Use if you belong to JVP
It was ok until I got to the writings that are anti Israel, pro Gaza Hamas. Deleted
Not working
I really like the content of this app but it is so hard to navigate . It has not advanced to a new day from the first day that I logged on and it is so hard to figure out how to move between sections . I am so disappointed because the aesthetics and content are amazing . I would love help if possible . I just downloaded it this year for the first time

Simple and beautiful
I like the poems and other resources.
I love the visual presentation.
A pleasure to use.

Well intentioned but badly needs updates
Nice alternative counting app but not polished. Slow response from buttons on bottom ribbon, unintuitive layout, no obvious way to mark past days as counted regardless of status (to accommodate those finding the app during the Omer and still counting with a blessing). Not very user friendly. In summary, if you didn’t get this app before the Omer, you’re out of luck on being able to mark that you’ve counted to personalize your use. Better luck next year. Hopefully an update or several will fix some of this! Would love to see a polished version, as I love the etz chayim / sfirot. But for now, Chabad comes out ahead for the most user friendly, responsive app.

Easy and inspiring
Easy to navigate interface and quotes to uplift during the Omer — what could be better?
Best omer counting app!
I have been using this for years after several years of unsuccessful attempts at a meaningful Omer practice. I finally found THE app for Counting the Omer! This app is so user friendly, informative, inspirational, and most importantly reminds me to do the count every night ! Thank you!!!!!!!
Great app!
I love this app. It makes counting the Omer both accessible and meaningful. Thanks so much!
Great app
This app is so helpful for remembering which day of the Omer it is and counting it correctly. I love that I can simply count the Omer if that’s all I want, or I can get more—a quote for the day and the sefirot for the day. It is really useful.
Favorite Omer App
I have been using this app for several years to count the Omer. I love the thought provoking comments, the helpful links, and the mystical teachings. I appreciate that that I can make choices on the Nusach so I can use my family’s Sephardic tradition.This app is also very aesthetically appealing. The daily reminder keeps me on track!

Makes counting easy and meaningful
This app is wonderful. I use it every night to count the Omer, and I love reading and reflecting on the quotes, R’ David’s prayer for democracy, and Ana B’Ko’ach. Highly recommended for both first-time Omer counters and those who have been practicing Sefirat Ha’Omer for years!
