Really great app
This is a really great app, and I totally love it. I especially love the way I can change the font size so as to make the margins fall in different places; this way I don’t rely on the placement of the text when it differs in the Torah from the Tikkun. However, I had to take off one star because the verse numbers are in your Tikkun. Why did you do that? It’s a cheat, and that’s a problem. There aren’t numbers for us to follow when we’re looking in Torah. LOL That’s a significant oversight in this training app. Otherwise, it’s a super helpful app; 21st Century Torah! Todah!
TorahFarmer,
Each Word
What a wonderful gift of being able to just tap on any word in any Aliyah from any parsha and hear and see the text so I can learn the tropes. Thank you for making this available for free and continuing to update and keep this free for all to use! I'm also very thankful of the translation in English and the ability to pause so I can read through and learn as well as understand the text I'm reading. Again I give much appreciation to all the work and kindness put into this app.
One thing I've noticed is my app crashes on iPhone 5s when I try to just go to the parsha of the week. The app just kicks me out and closes. I just reopen the app, then I just search for the correct parsha in the provided list. But I probably just need to update my iPhone.

ESBCS,
Great app — needs some updates
This app is the best tikkun app I have found. It is the only app I have found for tikkuns that also has audio — great for teaching kids for bar/bat mitzvah. Thank you! It needs some updates though: 1. It takes a lot of space — ten times more than most apps, and than the companion Pocket Torah app. 2. There is a weird bug where if you go to another app and come back to this one, it starts flashing and only showing part of the page.
It also would be great to be able to have this app on Google Play as well so that it can be used with Chrome books or with Androids.

Great app with this capability
This is a great app that has all the Parshot chanted with each word highlighted in time with the audio. Hebrew with vowels, tikkun, and inter linear English translation available as well.
Paired with Pocket Trope app you can work on your chanting for Torah and haftarah with ease. I love that they added a button for this weeks parsha.
Suggestion: it would be nice to have a choice of cantors. For example I prefer the female cantor sometimes because the melodies are sung more which is closer to my style. Some cantors sound very nasally even though the general melody is correct.

Very good app
I like this app a lot. I can follow the Torah potion for the week while it’s being read in the synagogue I attend easily with this app. I’m trying to use it along with my Hebrew language studies to learn to read the Torah portions myself. The only drawback to this app is that I wish I could click on each word individually without it starting to reading the whole portion once it starts. I want to be able to read a word in the Torah portion, then click that word to check myself without it auto playing the whole thing.
ImeldaM,
Great Torah app
I have a couple of minor updates to suggest. The first is to be able to bookmark a week’s portion . The second is that when one changes the font size, it doesn’t stay that size, so that it has to be done every time accessing the app and portion.
I would also suggest adding in or offering the options of the different way portions are read, ie triennial. I’m sure it’s extra work for the developers, but good for users desiring it. Thank you in advance.

So Helpful!
I love this to help improve my pronunciation when reading Torah. What a lot of work went into making this and a lot of love to make it freely available! The only thing I would improve is if am just randomly reading in the Torah instead of a weekly portion it can take me a while to finding it using only Reading titles.
Ronit05,
Great idea, good app - needs improvement
This app has great potential!
Unfortunately it crashes when I try to go straight to "this week's parasha."
Also, the pause button is pretty small - or it isn't very responsive, making it hard to pause and go back to the beginning of the pasuk when trying to memorize a specific part.
Otherwise I like it. Please keep improving - it's clear a lot of people use it to learn leining, which is a great service!!!

Hiyat,
Where in the Torah does it say a woman can't sing?
This app is awesome!! I am writing this review to say that this app is very useful and to mention to some of the other reviewers who have a problem with women singing. The Torah wasn't just given to men, you know! Just because something is tradition doesn't make it right.....

Glitchy and doesn’t save settings
I needed this app to learn a Torah portion for a service. It was handy but…. I put the setting on “slow” and it doesn’t save it. Every single time I sign in I have to go into settings and reset it to slow. Also, it’s glitchy. I’ll hit pause and it won’t pause. Then, when it does pause eventually, I can’t get it to play again. They need to work out some bugs with this.
