Very nice siddur

It would be nice to have Liquid Glass and dark mode on this app

Koren

Love this app also for zenanim . Absolutely needed a dark mode !!!

Great but…

Great app overall. Only bug is that “v’ten tal u’mattar” is not showing up

Great!

My favorite siddur in an app - what’s not to like?

Not working

Every time I try to load the app, it tells me I need to do a download, but whenever I try to do it, the app crashes.

Crashing on iOS 26

When downloading the content for the select nusach is simply exists.

Loading issues

This app is great if it loads properly, however it almost never does. It takes forever to load, and if you want to switch nusach you’ve gotta make sure you do it well before. If it loaded it would be a fantastic app, but it just ends up being impractical to actually daven from

I loved it until I added mods; now there are words missing from the Hebrew

There may be problems in other places, but the place I just noticed it was the first two blessings of the mincha Amidah.

Still lacking

I tried this last Purim, and then again today - this Purim. It has improved - last time it didn't include al hanissim or birchos hamegillah. It's still lacking. Hazarat hashatz isn't integrated, and even though I ordered the translation/commentary it doesn't appear and there's no restore button to put them on my wife's phone. But it's handy.

Wrong days of Torah reading

Needs to fix days when reading the Torah. Monday and Thursday. Now app uses Sunday and Wednesday

Excited for improvement

Thai app has a beautiful easy to use interface, and all the prayers you could need. My one request is audio to go along with the prayers to help when you are learning or are unfamiliar. And/or transliteration, but audio is the priority.

Interesting idea

So far I am like it, but it is taking some getting used to.

Mon / Thur mix ups

It seems like on Mon & Thur after the long tachanun the first part of the taking out of the Sefer Torah comes on but the next part is Acheinu kol Bais….
Then on tues and Friday the brich shmay and the Irish comes on.
Please adjust this bug.

Really nice siddur

Would love to have the option to set translations side by side (not sure why I can't enable it in the settings rather than tapping each verse).
Also waiting for narration mods and a dark mode but otherwise it's amazing to have Koren on mobile!

Very nice siddur

I love the commentaries.
I can't get the translations side by side though, I have to tap every verse each time.
I see the menu for a narration mod but there's nothing there, are you planning to add this later?

Good!

Not great, but a beautiful Siddur and much better than others I’ve used. Font is nice and large and everything works seamlessly.
However, there’s some kind of display issue - whenever I open קריאת שמע שעל המטה instead of saying וקשרתם לאות the ו doesn’t display and it shows up קשרתם לאות.
Thanks!

Beautiful but won’t let me purchase

It really is a simple to use tefillah app, but won’t let me purchase the english which is really frustrating

Good Start

It's a good start but the Birkat HaShanim is missing the bracha for Adot HaMizrach. Please make an update when possible.

Can’t purchase translations or commentary

As the title says, I can’t purchase an English translation or commentary. When I try, the app tells me that it’s only available for a particular nusach, and asks me if I’d like to switch to that nusach. I say yes *even though that nusach is already selected*, but nothing happens. No purchase option ever appears.

An iPad-optimized version of the app would also be good.

I love the idea of this app. It’s beautiful to look at and simple to use, but it needs work.

Missing ברכת השנים, and no תחנון during חול המועד.
