What about Windows Phones? Reply

Yes, it is available on Android. Touch the Google Play app on your phone (comes preinstalled) or tablet, and look up Chabad (visible also on Play.Google website).

Popular Chabad apps (they are all free except the Siddur Tehillat app):
1. Torah Study - Chabad.org Daily Torah Study
2. Chabad.org
3. Chabad.org Radio
4. Jewish.tv
5. RebbeDrive

In addition to Jewish education and Chabad locator apps, there are assistants for holidays (Passover), counting (Kaddish, Omer), and Shabbat.

If you load the chabad.org app or browse the website on the Google or Chrome app chabad.org (search: Siddur), you can pray online at their chabad.org "shul" for free on mobile, tablet & computer.

You can get a Chabad screensaver on Chrome (Chrome extensions). They have yet to make an extension for Windows and Mac.

On Chabad.org you can set it to different languages (Hebrew, English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, German, not yet Yiddish), true for the chabad.org app (the rest too?). Thanks, Uzi! Reply

Is it available on iPhone? Reply

Yes, Chabad has quite a few apps available iOS compatible and most are free on the preinstalled Apple App Store app for iPhone and tablet (they have yet to create an Mac app for its OS & App Store but you can also search chabad.org on Safari on a Mac computer or on the Google app on iPhone or tablet). They are also available on iTunes apps, and you can install iTunes on Mac or Windows, so the apps might work there too.

The apps are family friendly, search "Chabad.org" for Chabad.org Inc. Apps on the App Store, like Chabad.org, Chabad.org Daily Mitzvah, Jewish Kids, Jewish.tv, Chabad.org Radio, Daily Classes - Rabbi Gordon, Nusach, Write to the Ohel, Living Torah, Ask the Rabbi, Chabad Tube, different assistants, and more.

I think they are missing a music app personally. I enjoyed the Chabad.org app. It would be easy to pull up articles, prayers (search: Siddur), Chabad locations, and Shabbat times. The same apps on Google Play (android) are on the Apple App Store (iOS). Thanks, Avi! Reply

The brilliance of Chabad and immediate connection to prayer and Jewish learning now on iPhone, Android, tablets, and wearables! Simple brilliance comes to mobile. I would love to see more features. Currently, the app acts as a website shortcut (there are ways to pin favorite websites to mobile or tablet home screens also, but if you go to the site all the time, this is the official instant connection!). Useful for those who go to Chabad frequently, the app needs to have all the interactive features or messaging or audio shortcuts which is why most people use apps - for the robust versatility. Good way to remind people to pray - if there isn't a siddur app, there needs to be. Other apps include the Apple watch wearable software from in-house Chabad software and other Google play apps such as Torah learning, so is also available on Android Wear (see Times of Israel article, Google Play -Add Chabad donations to Android pay). Probably where the apps would be most useful is on the drive or the run and return. Chabad is an innovator for web and mobile development in Jewish ed tech. Thanks. Highly recommended! Reply
