A few minutes of Torah a day, in the shape that fits you.

Derekh Daily gathers eight small daily practices on one home screen. Each began as its own app, and each keeps its own rhythm. Choose one, or a few. There is no account and nothing to set up.

The eight practices

  • Pirkei Avot Daily: one mishna of Ethics of the Fathers a day, the same one everywhere, in Hebrew and English with Bartenura's classical commentary and a short lesson. Mark it learned, review any you've done, search all six chapters
  • Manna: one portion a day (a verse, a line of the daf, or a gematria), sealed until you've gathered it. On Shabbat it lifts at nightfall, by your local sunset
  • Derekh Gematria: a daily gematria teaching with its sources, and a calculator for any Hebrew word, name or verse
  • Thirty-Six: draw one kindness card a day (one concrete act and its Torah source) and do it quietly. A constellation fills as the year goes. Nothing leaves your phone: no network at all, and an optional Face ID lock on your journal
  • 613: the 613 mitzvot of Sefer HaChinuch as a lifetime collection. Stamp each one as you meet it in life: did it, witnessed it, learned it. Some take a morning; some take the Messiah. Both count
  • Daf Tracker: check off today's Daf Yomi, Mishnah Yomi and seven more cycles, with a companion lesson on the day's page and a streak that shows what you've actually kept up
  • Yetzer: a feed you can't doomscroll. Torah cards along the paths you choose, a breather when you've read enough, a Genizah for the ones you want to keep, and a Fence mode for the hours you'd rather not scroll at all
  • The Waiting Room: turn it on and your phone notices when you've been standing still (a queue, a lobby, a platform) and offers ninety seconds of Torah. Or ask Siri, "I'm waiting."

Across all eight

  • A home-screen widget for each practice
  • Siri shortcuts: today's mishna, today's daf, draw a card, "I'm waiting," and more
  • Your progress backs up to your own iCloud, never to us
  • The whole app in Hebrew: switch your device language to see it

No account, nothing to set up

There is no account and no sign-in. Progress lives on your device and in your own iCloud. Thirty-Six makes no network requests at all.

Formerly eight apps

Pirkei Avot Daily, Manna, Derekh Gematria, Thirty-Six, 613, Daf Tracker, Yetzer and The Waiting Room each began as its own app. They now live together here, and your learned mishnayot and streak carry over unchanged.

Every practice links to the source it came from in Derekh Learning, the daily Jewish-learning app from the same team.
