  1. 4/5Missing a few words in birchat hamazon

    This app is great as it’s perfect for a siddur on the go but id like to point out on page 231 in birchat hamazon the blessing on the bottom of the page is cut off and missing a few words

  2. 5/5Back pages

    This has been an excellent app. However, the last update is messed up. The new added pages in the back of the siddur are not available. There is some sort of glitch with them. Please check and correct. Otherwise, a great Community service! Thank you!

  3. 5/5The Best Sephardic Siddur available!

    Thank you to Mr. Sam Cattan A'H for preserving the heritage of the Syrian Sephardic Community. This siddur is only one of the many projects he made happen. And of course, making sure the present and future generations understand that the community's history is zionistic and so shall the present and future be!

  4. 5/5New update

    Love the app. New update ruined my tefila, 1 swipe left or right you loose your current place. Mid amida this was rough 5 stars of course but really 3 with the new update - please fix 🙏🏼

  5. 3/5Not a fan of new UI

    The new UI isn’t very user friendly, I miss the turning pages and the default should be horizontal scrolling similar to Turning a page. An issue is that sometimes when turning a page you can go back to home menu if your finger is placed too close to the left during the swipe. I think the old UI wasn’t broke and didn’t need fixing. Thank you guys for everything you do this has been an extremely helpful app for me and I appreciate all that you do, but I miss the old UI

As always, Kol Yaakob is for weekday use and should not be used on Shabbat or Yom Tov.
