Aleph Beta Torah Videos - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

The Aleph Beta app is filled with life-changing Torah videos & podcasts that matter.

Torah, in Hebrew, means guidebook. It comes from the same word as morah, teacher, or horeh (parent or guide). The Torah is supposed to guide us, presumably. Often, though, when we turn to Torah for ancient and spiritual wisdom, we don’t immediately pick up a Tanakh. We look everywhere and anywhere else for inspiration. We gravitate towards Hassidut, Mysticism, Jewish philosophy or even talmudic legal analysis.

Many of us don’t feel like opening up the pages of Leviticus to read the week’s Torah portion, or the stories of the Sale of Joseph, or the complaints in the desert to give us that inspirational boost in the morning. We’ve grown distant from Torah text as a source of guidance.

Aleph Beta’s mission, led by Rabbi David Fohrman, is to help you revisit the text you may already be quite familiar with, read it honestly, without preconceived notions or barriers, and authentically discover the richness that was always there. Our guarantee is that you will be deeply surprised about the latent meaning in laws and stories you may have long overlooked.

At Aleph Beta we make stunning animated videos and slickly-produced podcasts on the parsha, Jewish holidays & fast days, laws & mitzvot, prayers, relationships, big philosophical ideas and many other topics that present Torah ideas in an easy-to-consume way.

In a world where you could be watching Netflix and YouTube, we want you here with us, experiencing the timeless wisdom of Torah in a way that stands up to the best production value the secular world has to offer.

Our app is totally free to download, and we provide 30 minutes of free content a month for you to watch, listen & enjoy. For unlimited access to streaming, downloading, transcripts, parsha learning guides & much more, we offer a Premium membership for a small monthly or annual fee (see details below).

Rabbi Fohrman intelligence

A meaningful way to look at Torah and commandments

Great for the whole family

Great Torah insights presented in a way that keeps the whole family interested in learning. The animations make the learning painless for the youngsters and they remember the educational content as if it was told by Moses himself.

Incredible app

The best stuff on Earth!!!

Love this content / app

I have been a long time listener to the free content and have always loved the take / interpretation/ visuals of the Hebrew as I learn. I finally subscribed and only wish it would’ve done it sooner!

Great content, app is 90% there

Content is amazing, app is glitchy sometimes. Some of the video links do t work. Still the best Hebrew content out there.

Aleph Beta

Unable to reinstall after it got stuck “loading” for more than 12 hours. Also stops every 3 minutes to ask for donations even when you are a member signed in. More exhausting than the fast that starts Sunday.

Love this app but…

…I paid for subscription on April 6, 2022 and posted to my credit card April 7, 2022. Now, June 4, 2022 the app wants me to subscribe again saying I have used my free 30 hours this month! I have emailed them twice and no response. As much as I love Rabbi David Foreman I can’t recommend the app until they fix this issue for me. Then I will give 5 stars.

Brilliant! Download ASAP

AlephBeta has been a game changer for me. I only wish I had stumbled across it much sooner. They should partner with other apps that are in the culture and have prominent Jews leading them to market, so more people will be exposed to this amazing content (i.e. PragerU). A few features are missing that bring the app to a 4/5 for me but this in no way should deter anyone from downloading it immediately: 1. Ability to mark a video as “complete” and that completion to be reflected everywhere that video or podcast is shown throughout the app. Sometimes videos don’t reflect you’ve watched them, and they don’t always show you’ve watched the video everywhere it can be found 2. Ability to favorite videos 3. Add to watchlist - if you find something now you want to remember to watch later 4. Currently watching, so if you’re in the middle of a series and have to stop, you can pick back up and finish the series / collection 5. Publish date 6. Auto-play toggle off/on 7. Sometimes videos are mentioned as being “linked below” and they aren’t

RABBI FORMAN!!!!!

Ok, so alef beta is one of the best apps on my phone! The only problem is that Most of the speakers are kind of liberal, like very liberal and every dvar Torah is a political rant. Like the Tzom gedalia one 🙄 but rabbi Forman is amazing!!!! My mom listens to him every Friday when she’s cooking and gives us the dvar Torah on Shabbos!!!!!😀😀😀

Amazing

The teaching is amazing and easy to understand. The Torah comes alive in the lessons
