Widgets 2. Siri integration 3. Notifications to remind about candle lighting and havdalah. ### 3/5 — Love the app but… *2025-01-17* Wonderful app and incredibly informative, but why there is an issue when sending the times to someone. In the app it shows when Shabbat come in ABOVE when Shabbat comes out which is logical. For some reason when you send the times in a text the image switches to show when Shabbat comes out ABOVE when it comes in which has led to a lot of confusion. ### 3/5 — No Holiday candle times *2024-12-24* It’s great for knowing when to light Shabbat candles, but it would be nice if there was an alert feature to remind you. Also, it says it gives you holiday candle lighting times, but they are missing for Chanukah. Would like to see those as well. ### 2/5 — Glitchy *2023-10-09* When working, this app is very useful as a non jew who has friends that keep shabbat. I don’t know if it’s iOS 16.7 or what but I am currently unable to open the app without it crashing… ### 3/5 — Needs to be updated for iOS 17 *2023-10-08* Keeps crashing ### 3/5 — Ideia boa mas não problema *2023-10-06* Ótima ideia mas não funcionando muito bem em iOS, App fecha sozinho quando abre ### 3/5 — Crashing often recently *2023-09-14* Great app but since the last two months it crashes everytime it’s opened ### 3/5 — All zmanim *2019-11-20* Why don’t you have all the zmanim? ### 3/5 — Love the Shabbat reminder, but can it be like an hour before? *2019-11-10* I love this app, because it helps me keep track of Shabbat times. My only criticism is that I wish there was a customizable reminder. There’s a default 6 hour reminder, but what is more useful is a reminder an hour before — or whatever you think you will need. Please add a customizable reminder! **Developer response:** On the locations screen, we do offer the option of changing the amount of time before candle lighting to receive a notification. ### 4/5 — Alerts would be awesome! *2019-11-09* I don’t see an options menu so that I can get alerts before Shabbat is about to begin. ### 1/5 — Not ready *2019-07-09* This app does not work- it opens then closes immediately; not ready for prime time yet👎🏻! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-10-25* Crashing on iOS 18.0.1 ### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne plus sur iPhone depuis quelques jours iPhone 14 plus *2024-10-14* Ne fonctionne plus sur IPhone 14 plus depuis quelques jours ### 1/5 — Crash on startup on iPhone 12 *2023-10-06* Crash on startup on iPhone 12 ### 1/5 — No notifications *2023-09-01* I tried using it for a month.

Esta app no me quiere abrir en el dispositivo que uso actualmente. Gracias. ### 1/5 — Crashes on iOS 14 *2020-10-11* Crashes since iOS 14 installed. Useless now. Won’t start. ### 1/5 — new version such a disappointment! *2019-07-19* what a shame that the new version seems unaware that israel and the states will not be reading the same parsha until the end of bamidbar- the old app knew- and now i am wary of trusting the lichtbenchen times listed. ### 1/5 — Crashes iPad *2019-07-11, version 1.0.6* iPad iOS 9.3.5 crashes every time. Okay on phone 12.3.2 ### 1/5 — New app not working *2019-07-10* If it ain't broke as they say Old app great everything was working fine a good website but now unsupported? new app downloaded but it's not working oh dear! flickers on then straight off Back to the drawing board ### 1/5 — Crashes *2019-07-10* I just updated to this new version, and all it does is crash. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hi, love this app but.... *2025-06-01* Hi, I love this app! so helpfull! I do have one question however; I just got a notification on my phone saying this app has used my location for the last three days (I enabled this setting) but Earlier today was Shabbat, Halachically speaking is it OK to track me, thus using electronics, on Shabbat? Again love this app, just a little curious though😅 ### 5/5 — Je recommande *2024-10-30* Excellente application Todah Rabah ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2022-10-01* I’m very judicious in my ratings. This is an excellent app. The negative ratings seem to be unfounded. However, where can we make app suggestions? I would like multiple alarms per location. Also, how can I customize the alarm sound for the app? ### 5/5 — Apps crashes *2022-04-20* I love this app but it’s been crashing lately - unable to use! Please fix it. **Developer response:** Thank you very much for taking the time to let us know about this. Our team has released a fix for this issue and the app should be fully usable again and ready for you to continue to enjoy! ### 5/5 — Really useful app *2019-07-22* I love this app. I live in Australia but travel overseas very often and I always know for sure when to light. Thank you ### 5/5 — Great app *2019-07-13* App works very well and is an improvement over the old one ### 5/5 — Great but *2019-07-11* Please include earliest lighting time, it’s especially helpful in the summer ### 5/5 — New and improved. *2018-09-30* I like this new app. I like the option to save locations and share an image of the times ### 4/5 — Great app when it doesn’t crash .
