Check also the Deluxe version which adds many features (among other features: add your own notes and remember your own important dates).
Other solutions exist on the web with similar functionalities but require a live internet access and/or a desktop computer to work. Also, the very fact that they require a live internet connection makes them very slow to use.
Being a native iPhone application, Pocket Luach allows for quick and simple conversion of dates on the go. This is useful for any observant Jew or for Gentiles doing business with observant Jews. For instance, with Pocket Luach, one can quickly make sure a proposed date for an appointment does not fall on a Jewish holiday before finalizing the date.

Can we get an update for the new iOS?

Jumicam happy on

Love this app, but it’s crashing on the new iOS. Please update

Worthless

Soulfan on

United States

Was a great app but now totally useless as it will not work on OS 13 Guaranteed to crash every time.

Don’t Waste Your Money

Ari-El on

United States

Yes, it gives you the times for davening, candle lighting, etc... within the app., but you are unable to export anything to iCalendar. The unpaid version used to allow this, but it doesn’t work now. That’s why I purchased this version. Wasted money.

Missing 9th of AV?!?!

DrDanPgh on

United States

I've used this Luach for years, and overall I've been happy with it. But for August 2016it lists Tu B'Av (which, frankly, I hadn't even known was a thing) but has no indication that Tisha B'Av is a fast day. Major fail, guys, especially when it falls on Shabbat and fast time guidelines are needed. The app doesn't seem to have a bug report function, so I'm saying it here.

Must know Hebrew dates to use this

Sldrc on

United States

Not good for converting TO the Hebrew calander; must already know the Hebrew date, and it will tell you the Gregorian calander date. Can only go up or down one day at a time unless you already know Hebrew date you want to look up.

NewYoorker-in-Houston on

United States

I am running iOS 8 on an iPhone 6. I have no way of rating it because it crashed on the start up screen! I would go back to the Rusty Brick Siddur but they've added so much Hebrew that I don't understand the program anymore. I will just have to keep looking!
