PocketTorah Trope Hack 2.0.1 + Redeem Codes

I’m using this as a practical practice for when a recording from my Hazzan is unavailable. Our conservative synagogue is triennial and if portions were available for that, it would be appreciated. This is very good to read from and bookmarking even parts of a portion would be a great help in an update.

This has been helpful for brushing up on trope.

A woman chants the trope, which some users have complained about as an issue of Kol Isha; however, for it to legitimately count as Kol Isha you have to see the woman or at least know what she looks like, and many poskim argue that a recording or broadcast is not a “voice” but rather a transformed thing (dvar hadash)—the same reason one is not yotzeh from hearing the shofar or Megillah over the radio.

I was excited to find this app, but after using it for a while I find it more confusing than helpful. There are a number of trope phrases that are sung, but with no real cumulative build up of phrases in increasing complexity. Then, when you go to the PocketTorah app from the same company, it seems like the Torah is sung in a completely different way than the way it was taught in the PocketTrope app, with no explanation whatsoever as to why the two are so different. A real exercise in confusion and really bad pedagogy!

I use this app regularly to review trope cantilation and teach my kids. But my iPhone 7 says the app needs to be updated because it is incompatible with newer phones. Please update, so I can keep using this wonderful app!

Just used this for polishing me eicha trope. Very useful in the ability to search and find specifc notes.
Looking forward to using it again for the holidays.

This app has a great purpose and can be helpful when one needs a refresher on the trope , however the sounds the woman are doing are not so accurate and the app is always freezing up and crashing.

Fantastic to hear a womans voice instead of the draconian, fundamentalist male crap usually associated with religion based apps. Thank you for demonstrating Judaism is for ALL Jews, not just a few emotionally/spiritually constipated fools who choose to cling to disgusting, needless, oppressive dogma.

Although very pleasant to listen to, this app only presents one version of the trope, which is not what everyone uses. Unfortunately, the trope vocalizations I learned and teach are not represented here. I won't be able to use this program.

Looking forward to continued improvements. Clear and helpful. I'm recommending it to my students.

An invaluable educational resource for all ages. Innovative and user friendly. Many thanks Russell and Charlie.
