What's New in Shabbat Shalom

4.2.0

December 6, 2023

Fixed a bug with adding locations

User reviews

Doesn’t work

It only shows times in Jerusalem, but I live in Los Angeles. When I add my city, it allows to add locations but then doesn’t actually show you times for other places. Only Jerusalem

Disappointing

The app opens to the location Jerusalem IL. I don’t know if that’s Israel or Illinois! When I enter my U.S. zip code or city and hit Save nothing happens. It must be a dead app.

Been using for years

I’m a non-religious guy with observant friends and relatives. I’ve been using this app for years to ensure that I arrive be for Shabbos, don’t call after Yom Tov candle lighting, etc.

It’s a single use case experience that has always been there for me!

Location button

Does not work most of the time

Love it!

Use it all the time. Would prefer to pay for it and not have the ads. Is it possible to add alerts based on the times?
