BERACHOT - Life in the modern world proceeds at a very rapid pace. Everyone has to get to many places on time, to do many things, to meet many people – all in one day. Because of this, the smartphone has become the active person’s most needed instrument, to which he is connected day and night. This instrument serves as a combination of many functions: telephone; computer; tablet; camera; diary; music player; radio, and more. In the past, a Jew had to carry many books with him wherever he went: a Siddur; Chumash; Tehillim; Gemara; books on Halacha, etc. The Siddur was especially essential – prayers are recited daily and everywhere – at work, traveling, at the restaurant, on vacation, etc. Today there is no need for that anymore – the smartphone has even replaced the Siddur. This application is meant for assisting the Jew in navigating confidently through the world of blessings. How is it unique and different from similar applications? Here are some of its features: - The prayers and blessings are displayed in three versions: Askenaz, Edot HaMizrach and Sefarad. - There are three language options: Hebrew in Hebrew letters, Hebrew in Latin letters (transliteration), and English translation, in addition to short explanations of each blessing. - Easy and user-friendly interface. - The presence of four languages: Hebrew, Russian, English, Georgian; - Everything that one would need on a daily basis – nothing superfluous. May these blessings bring good health, luck and peace to all those reciting them and to all the people of Israel and to the whole world! Amen! This Application is published with the authorization of the Chief Rabbis of Israel and Russia, and with their blessings. Our deepest appreciation to all who participated in this sacred project.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Brachot at 4.9 against УК РФ's 1.0. Brachot also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (230 vs 1). УК РФ's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. УК РФ sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Brachot asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Brachot holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Brachot has 230 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 96% of Brachot's written reviews are positive against 100% of УК РФ's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Brachot ships an update every 4 months, УК РФ fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
