Chazal teach (Kesubos 111a): whoever walks four amos in Eretz Yisroel is assured a portion in the World to Come. Arba Amos turns that teaching into a living experience. Start a walk anywhere in Eretz Yisroel and watch your mitzvah count climb in real time — every 1.92 meters (four amos) you walk adds one. Your route draws live on a beautiful, detailed map as you go, with a gentle pulse for every mitzvah earned. FEATURES • Live mitzvah counter — converts your steps into mitzvos as you walk, using the shiur of Rav Chaim Naeh (48 cm amah), with Chazon Ish (57.6 cm) available in settings • Real-time map — your route trails behind you on a detailed street map with live GPS • Only in Eretz Yisroel — smart geo-gating counts steps only inside the Land; the counter pauses automatically when you leave • Rank system — climb from Holech (one who walks) to Yoresh (inheritor of the land) as your steps, mitzvos, streak, and distance grow • Daily dashboard — today's mitzvos, distance, steps, and the weather for your walk • Trip history — every walk saved with distance, mitzvos earned, and conditions • Stride calibration — walk a measured distance once for an honest, personalized count • The source — the teaching from Kesubos 111a, always one tap away A NOTE Distances are estimates from your device sensors. The count is meant as chizuk and encouragement — not a halachic ruling. Boundary and shiur questions are worth discussing with your rav. Walk the Land. Count the merit. Every four amos.
