SiddurApp is a siddur application that allows users to access the Jewish prayer book on their iOS device. Currently, it offers the Sephard version of the prayer book, commonly used by many Ashkenazi Israelis and various Chasidim.

Upon activation, the "Smart" panel displays the relevant prayer based on the time of day. If location access is granted, it determines local prayer times; otherwise, it assumes the day is between 6 am and 6 pm. The "Smart" view features:

  • Displays relevant parts of prayer for the specific day.
  • Highlights short timed additions to prayer.
  • Uses GPS to identify if in Jerusalem for Purim.

When activated, the "Times" panel icon shows a compass indicating the direction of prayer. A countdown timer shows the remaining time until the compass disappears. Users can customize this feature in the app settings. To view the compass again, users can find it within the "Times" section within 10 seconds of app activation.

For accessing specific prayers, users can tap on the "Prayer select" button and choose from the list. Options include viewing a "Smart" version or a "Full" version with all available prayer options.

"Birkat Ha'mazon" and "Tfilat Ha'derech" for the current day are easily accessible using the tab bar panels. The "Times" panel displays all day's prayer times and points towards the direction of davening.

Settings allow users to switch the app's interface to Hebrew and set preferences such as collapsing or expanding certain parts of prayers like Kadish. Collapsed parts are displayed as buttons that expand when clicked, including during "chazarat ha'shats" segments.

This app is provided "as is" and does not make any guarantees on any issue, including halachic or textual exactness. Users are advised not to rely on it for determining halachic questions. SiddurApp explicitly disclaims accuracy in direction, time, or prayer text due to compass and GPS limitations. Users are solely responsible for any inaccuracies in prayer text, timing, or directional information that may arise from using this application.
