    Besides for the traditional, beautiful Kad Yassvun Yisroel, don’t forget Benny Friedman’s very nice version!

    Also, you can add Yisroel Werdyger’s Torah song to your Seudah playlist (if you don’t have it, it is a free download on Mostly Music’s website)

    I say havdalah over a piece of newspaper.

    Is that better then saying Have Allah from a siddur on a smartphone?

    I know this has been suggested before but I’m too tired to read through 13 pages on this thread.

    Anyway, any possibility for a mobile-friendly CR? It is quite annoying to have to zoom in for every page and it is almost impossible to see posters names…

    It would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks for everything!

    I don’t think anyone (with a brain) would say it is right to answer, check, read, send… calls, texts, emails etc. during davening. That is outright wrong and a disgrace to Hakadosh Baruch Hu.

    The question is using an electronic device in place of a Siddur (and the same thing can be asked about chumash, gemarah, tehillim or any other sefer). Is there something wrong with it

    It is a very old “minhag” for people to do other things during davening. Talking is probably the #1 distraction in most shuls

    The issue of texts popping up each person has to decide for themselves how they want to handle that. There are options to control these things and if you can’t find anything to your liking, build an app that you can control!

    And to respond to the plumber, who said “Because you are bringing tumah into a beis knesses”:What tumah? the siddur? If you are referring to the phone, first of all, it can be a Kosher phone. And if it’s not, then that has nothing to do with the siddur. You are bringing the” tumah” into the beis knesses just by having the phone in your pocket.

    I also have laundry problemS. Here’s one of them, which is driving me crazy! On some of my white shirts there are these “clear” stains. I don’t really know how to describe it, but it is not a stain with color but it makes the shirt like see through. I have no idea what this is. Waiting for your expert advice! Thanks very much!!

    Little Froggie, you are right if someone is “clicking tagging, pressing, dragging, pasting, expanding, re-sizing, flipping and etc.” during ring davening that would be wrong and disrespectful (to anyone, kal vechomer Hashem!) But if someone would set up the display before davening and would only need to scroll down to the next page, why would that be any different than turning pages in a Siddur? Needless to say, s/he would not check any incoming calls or texts! (Unfortunately, people are doing that even when not using the phone as a Siddur.)

    By the way, Smart Siddur (app mentioned above) has an option to put the phone in silent mode while using the Siddur.

    Little Froggie, you are right, if someone is “clicking tagging, pressing, dragging, pasting, expanding, re-sizing, flipping and etc.” that is completely wrong and disrespectful (to anyone, kal vechomer Hashem). But if someone would set up the display before davening and would only need to scroll down, why would that be any different than a siddur?, And needless to say, s/he would not check or respond to any incoming calls or texts, of course! (Many people, without using there smartphone as a siddur will still check there phone in middle of davening. This is a separate issue and should be worked on by each individual. And that incl)

    YungermanS: You would be right if someone is playing games during davening, however, I am asking about using a smartphone to daven from. And by the way, Obama can’t do anything without a teleprompter!

    The following apps give that days teffilot (yaleh veyavoh, mashiv haruach, sefira, etc.) SmartSiddur (mostly free, but some options need a paid version) and Tfilon (completely free). Both have options to pick Nussach and text size.

    maybe go to a phone repair shop

    So, I took the phone to a repair shop and gave it in. He said he will try. Picked it up and he told me that he didn’t find anything but he cleaned it out. If it works properly, then I should pay him. If not, not.

    Guess what? Nothing changed!

    Now what???

    I saw this in Ruchoma Shain ?”?’s book, All for the Boss:

    She was describing life in Mir, Europe in letters to her parents. She was explaining her language barrier problems:

    …I asked her for simple instructions in cooking. “How muuch salt?” I asked. Her terse answer was, “A chuch.” For my question on the amount of sugar, “A hoifen” and for liquid, “A shpritz.”

    I finally got up enough courage to ask … chuch – a pinch of salt; hoifen – a handful of sugar; shpritz – a few drops of any liquid. I am still experimenting with these measurements, but my food does not always taste the way it should…

    Chapter 16 – Letter 3 (Page 231 in the newly expanded edition)

    Well, I assume they had some sort of measuring utensils, but they didn’t always use them. And people today still use the above measurements.

    ItcheSrulik, what about Moshe Rabbenu? If he would have asked one more time, Hashem would have “had to” allow him into Eretz Yisroel. This is the power of Tefilla! By davening we can, in a way, make Hashem do something that He “doesn’t want to.”
