It's a well-organized and presented compilation of religious texts, but I've read different English translations from different sources which alters the meaning altogether sometimes in a fashion that would undermine monotheism itself which creates a self-defeating purpose. I will still keep the app and read it on the side, but I prefer learning Hebrew instead.

Glory be to Hashem for this app. Thank you for allowing me to read and learn from these holy texts. I want to buy many copies for my own library.

There are weekly chapters, and the ability to read various texts, not only the Torah and Tanaka, is built in; there is also a siddur.

They decided to use AI slop for "translations." Uninstalling. Edit: The response did not change my mind. I will not be reinstalling.

New review: crashes every time I search for sheets, even when I uninstall and reinstall. Really unfortunate. Unusable now. Old review: Excellent app. Any chance of transliteration? Many dyslexic Jews like myself have real trouble reading Hebrew even if we were taught the clef bet as kids. Transliteration would be life-changing, so I don't have to plug everything into alittlehebrew every time I want to read Hebrew aloud.

I was happy to own this app and open it but the texts never load. I see thr page to pick the books, but after I click on a book, any book, nothing loads. It's a perpetual spinning circle. That makes this app unusable for me unfortunately
