What's New in Shabbat Mode

1.2

November 6, 2026

Shavua tov! NEW: YOUR STREAK, THE MOMENT SHABBAT ENDS At havdalah you'll get a "Shavua tov" notification. Tap it to see how many Shabbatot you've kept, your next milestone, and a card you can share with family and friends. ALSO IN THIS UPDATE • Works beautifully on iPhone Duo, folded or open. • Custom Shabbat times are safer: we now catch times that would accidentally run longer than 48 hours. • Your streak counts more accurately when you change settings partway through. • Plus fixes and polish under the hood. Shabbat Mode is built by one person. If it's helped your Shabbat, a rating helps others keeping Shabbat find it. — Ani

Unplugging

I know the importance of Shabbat and taking time away from the chaos to rest. I really appreciate that this app reminds me and encourages me to unplug and focus on more important things than scrolling and wasting time on my phone.

RECOMMENDED APP!!

This app has truly changed the way I spend my time out of my daily life and i
genuinely love it. Something I have been wanting for a long time is a way to keep Shabbat without relying on willpower. The reason for this is because some weeks I just get so tired I can’t help but veg out on Fridays. not able to read it. Greatly appreciate any feedback and updates!!
