Amud

Amud tells you what is different about today - in davening, in the zmanim, and in your learning.

Tachanun or not. Full Hallel, half Hallel, or none. Ya'aleh V'yavo. Al HaNisim. When tal u'matar begins. Tonight's Omer. It reads your date and your location and answers the question a shul notice board would answer, except you do not have a shul.

Built for anyone davening without a minyan, and for anyone still finding their feet in shul: on campus, on the road, new to it all, or in a town with no kehilla.

If you are not always sure what today is meant to be, Amud is the quiet friend leaning over to tell you.

WHAT YOU GET

Today's davening, decided for you. Every change that matters, in davening order, with a plain English explanation of what it is and when it happens. On an ordinary day it simply says nothing unusual, and that is the point.

The day's zmanim on the front card. Sunrise, latest Shema, chatzos, Mincha, shkia, nightfall, and on a fast day the one time you actually need: when it ends.

Limud Yomi, tracked properly. Daf Yomi, Dirshu (Daf HaYomi B'Halacha and the Mishnah Berurah cycle), Mishnah Yomi, Nach Yomi, Rambam, Chofetz Chaim, Tanya and more. Mark what you have learned, watch your real progress toward your own siyum, and catch up on missed days without losing your place.

Your nusach, not just your spelling. Ashkenaz, Sefard, Chabad and Edot HaMizrach change the actual answers, and every transliteration matches - Ashkenazi for Ashkenaz, Sefardi for Edot HaMizrach.

The week ahead, before you need it. A Shabbos and Yom Tov briefing you can read in advance, or print and share as a clean sheet for the fridge, for the days you cannot look at your phone.

Reminders that only speak when there is something to say. Shema before it is too late, candle lighting, when a fast begins, the Omer, Eruv Tavshilin, your daily learning, and an optional nudge for the days you still owe. A fast-day countdown sits on your Lock Screen.

A small compass beside the settings gear shows you the direction of the Kodesh HaKodashim from wherever you are standing. Turn until the arrow points straight up and you are facing it.

Honest where Jews differ. Where communities genuinely disagree, Amud says so and marks the item minhag rather than pretending. It is a davening aid, not a posek.

Private and offline. No account, no sign up, no server. Your location is read on the phone to tell Israel from chutz la'aretz and never leaves it. There is no analytics and no tracking of any kind.
