Jewish apps for everyday use

Prayer and study apps from BD TECH. Siddur Pure Intention is free on the App Store — a siddur in four nusachim that shows only what is said at today's prayer, with the Hebrew calendar and the zmanim computed on the device. Selichot Pure Intention is free on the App Store too — both rites of Selichot, opening on the order said today. Sfarim keeps Tanach, Mishna, Talmud Bavli and Rambam on the Mac, offline. Seder HaYom is out on the Mac App Store, putting the day's halachic times in the Mac menu bar, with iPhone and iPad to follow.

The apps

  • Selichot Pure Intention

    A free Selichot app in the Sephardic and Ashkenaz rites, opening on the order said today. It has Hatarat Nedarim in both rites and a Shana Tova card composer, all offline. Out now on the App Store.

  • Siddur Pure Intention

    iOS · Android

  • Sfarim

    macOS · Windows

    Tanach, Mishna, Talmud Bavli and Rambam in one tabbed window. The daf as it is printed, its commentaries beside it, and the whole library inside the app — no network needed.

    Details
  • Seder HaYom

    macOS · iOS

    Halachic times for the Mac menu bar, iPhone and iPad — 28 zmanim with GRA and MGA side by side, computed on the device. The Mac app is out on the Mac App Store; iPhone and iPad follow.

Siddur Pure Intention · Sfarim

Everything runs on the device

No internet needed

The texts, the Hebrew calendar and the calculations are inside the app. Sfarim carries its whole library: Tanach, Mishna, Shas and Rambam. The siddur computes the day's zmanim on the device.

No account, no tracking

Neither app asks you to sign in, and neither contains analytics, advertising or third-party tracking. Nothing about what you learn or pray leaves your device.

Free, with nothing to buy

Both are free. There is no subscription, no in-app purchase and no paid tier held back — what you install is the whole app.

More from BD TECH

Two more that read and write Hebrew properly

The same desk makes other apps for people who work in Hebrew. These two share the typography and the right-to-left handling that the siddur is built on.

  • Igeret

    iOS · iPadOS

    Hebrew greeting cards for the whole year — the festivals, a wedding, a bar mitzvah, a condolence. Written in real Hebrew typography and sent from the phone.

    App Store
  • PureOpen

    macOS · iOS

    Opens and edits a plain Markdown file you already have. Hebrew and English mix correctly inside one paragraph, with the direction resolved per line rather than per document.

    Mac App Store
