Hey, your siddur app is great, I run a software company that outsources app and I must say the quality of all your apps is really great and of the highest standard ! I have a few comments regarding the sephardic siddur that has some errors in the Nusach - I always run in to it on Rosh Chodesh, but now am running in to it every day on sukkot. Essentially during Shachrit - after Ashrei and Uvah LeTziyon there is no Kadish (like on regular Torah reading Days) the correct sequence is as follows for Sukkot Chol HaMoed: Amida Shachrit No Kadish (you have a half Kadish in there) Blessing on the Lulav Hallel Kadish Titkabal (you have a half Kadish in there) Take Torah out (not sure if you need to denote this) Hoshanot (completely missing) Torah Reading Half Kadish Ashrei Uvah LeTziyon Beit Yaakov Shir LaMaalot Shir Shel Yom Hoshieinu Yehalelu (put the Sefer Torah back) Half Kadish Amida Mussaf Kadish Titkabal (you have a Kadish Avel Here) Sukkot Mizmor (Tehilim 42) (completely missing) Kadish Avel (Yehei Shlama) Kaveh/Ein Kelokeinu Kadish DeRabanan Aleinu For Rosh Chodesh its similar: Amida ShachritNo Kadish (you have a half Kadish in there)HallelKadish Titkabal (you have a half Kadish in there)Take Torah out (not sure if you need to denote this)Torah ReadingHalf Kadish AshreiUvah LeTziyonBeit YaakovShir LaMaalotShir Shel YomHoshieinuYehalelu (put the Sefer Torah back)Half KadishAmida MussafKadish Titkabal (you have a Kadish Avel Here)Barchi NafshiKadish Avel (Yehei Shlama)Kaveh/Ein KelokeinuKadish DeRabananAleinu Also most Sephardic/Edot HaMizrach at least in Israel say a few psukim (which I can send you if you like) and LeDavid Ori VeYishi all year round after aleinu with a Kadish Yheh Shlama at the end. Contact me directly if you would like me to review with you.

I love your iSiddur App and use it almost every day. Can you add in the Shemoneh Esrei prayer where you have to bow, etc. It sometimes throws me off. Most siddurs have this. Would it be possible to add this?

Have you experienced any issues on Rosh Chodesh? Because some of these items are time based and others are date based. I haven't seen any issues. Changing the date on the phone can work for testing, but the time would need to be changed too and the tefilla would need to be refreshed.

In the sepheradic siddur for iPad the amida is different than in the iPhone app (which is the one I am used to). Why is that?

posted by Fishel Erps on: Dec 8, 2010 01:10am

Hello, a gutten chodesh and a freilichin Chanukah! I just wanted to point out a few things. 1) the minyan feature in the siddur sometimes omits shuls. This morning IY was there, and now it's not. I'm in the same geographic location. 2) in the menorah app, the last paragraph of ma'oz tzur has a typo. It should be key orca lanu hayishua. Instead it has key orca hasha'ah.

Fishel: As far as point (2) is concerned, there are numerous variant readings for much of Maoz Tzur, especially the last paragraph. The version in the siddur is NOT a typo, but a different reading from yours, and in fact, probably a more accurate version as well.

But there is one issue that really bothers me and I just don't get it, which is that most apps, browsers, iBooks etc. Have a full screen option which upon touching the screen it toggles between full screen and the other icons on bottom and top. Is there any reason siddur dosnt do this? Fix this and you get 8 stars!!! Thank You!

I think that they berochos, haneros halolu and mo'oz tzur should all be there, in the siddur, just as the berochos before and after the megilla reading should be (are they? I haven't checked - if not, there is an extra month to get them in this year!). Not everyone wants to have yet another app with pretty pictures of channuka candles on their machine.
