Hebcal Hebrew Calendar 1.16.5

Hebcal offers a practical tool for users by showcasing today’s Hebrew date and the Torah portion of the week directly on your watch face as complications. The application also presents the upcoming two weeks of both Hebrew/Gregorian dates and a comprehensive yearly overview of Jewish holidays and Parashat HaShavua, the weekly Torah readings for Shabbat. Free from embellishments, distractions, alerts, and advertisements, Hebcal focuses solely on providing essential information.

Users have the option to view the Hebrew date and weekly Torah portion in transliterations following either Sephardic (e.g., "Shabbat" or "Sukkot") or Ashkenazi traditions (e.g., "Shabbos" or "Sukkos"), or in Hebrew script (e.g., "שַׁבָּת" or "סוּכּוֹת"). The app allows individuals to customize their experience by selecting Israel from the settings to align with Israeli Jewish holiday and Torah reading schedules, with the default setting tailored for users outside of Israel.

Pronounced as HEEB-kal, derived from Hebrew calendar, Hebcal serves as a valuable resource for Jewish calendar and holiday details. It is dedicated to promoting awareness of Jewish celebrations and aiding individuals in observing the mitzvot.
