The iJew Mobile app is a great resource for those of the Jewish faith and others who have Jewish friends and want to keep up on their religious lives. The app gives a great calendar and resource for what is happening at the time in the faith. As well, the prayers and virtual candles are great for younger followers of the Jewish faith who are learning about their religion. Overall a great resource and hub for anyone with an interest in Judaism!
Under blessings I was a little shocked to find Messianic blessings for the New Testament. This a great tool for the Jews for Jesus folks. For me, a Jew, it wasn't what I was expecting.
Not a bad little app. Some content could just as easily be found online, but having one touch access is nice. I don't know what app one reviewer was looking at, but I didn't find any messianic content whatsoever. I hope others don't automatically bypass it because of that review.
The calendar, which was my primary reason for purchasing the app, is not very intuitive, not very interactive, and not very easy to use. Overall, not a very useful app.
I don't understand how someone could complain about this app. I believe it's a dollar well spent coming from a Jew. I haven't practiced much since I had my bar-mitzvah but this app has reintroduced everything that I learned from Sunday school back to me. It reminds me about upcoming holidays so I don't look stupid and selfish in front of my Bubbie and Zadie and it has all of the high holiday prayers to recite in order. The plus is that it gives you location to local Jewish resteraunts an activity centers to help stay connected with you heritage. Who knew purchasing a smartphone will help get back into my delights background. My only complaint is that my Zadie's cemetery was not list but I'm sure that will be updated up the road as they improve this app. Very pleased..
Don't waste your time or space. Inaccurate information. Lousy user interface. The worst app I have bought.
The calender the reason i bought this app was obviously writen by a non-jew who lives in a different year. Do not waste your money!!!
This app definitely isn't what it's made out to be and I get the inclination whoever made it isn't even Jewish. When I try to locate a JCC, synagogue, restaurant, etc.. It just takes me to google places.. Something I can do on my own for free. Most of all the candles portion of the app? Really? Don't waste your time or money on this.
I can use browser and google to get the same results. Also the map does not show Jewish stores exclusively. Not worth money spent. Links are uber common. Who needs link to about dot com Jewish topic? I don't. I was hoping that app would save me time and be better than google.
